Javelin Glitch

Honestly this particular glitch is VERY annoying as it guarantees your death at close range.... Ran into a guy doing this last night... real cuss, but I guess it just means hit em from a distance for now.

They working on it.

After a flurry of Twitter tweets from people in the know, it seems the infamous ‘Javelin Glitch’ in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s online multiplayer is in the process of being fixed.

Here’s Infinity Ward’s Creative Strategist Robert Bowling:

“Javelin Glitch fix currently in test. Once it’s cleared, we’ll be urging it through Microsoft & Sony certification as fast as possible.”

This was followed up by a Twitter entry from Director of Policy and Enforcement for Xbox LIVE, Stephen Toulouse, warning abusers of the glitch that they would face a suspension from Xbox LIVE:

“While IW works on getting the MW2 glitch fixed, people we catch using it will [receive] suspensions from LIVE. Play fair everyone. :>”

In an effort to lend a helping hand and push Infinity Ward’s glitch fix through the pipes as soon as possible, Xbox mouthpiece Larry ‘Major Nelson’ Hryb tweeted in reply to Robert Bowling’s entry:

“Thanks for the update….I’ll put pressure on from my side as well.”

The Javelin Glitch in question involves players exploiting Modern Warfare 2’s more explosive weaponry in online play in combination with running perks, effectively turning you into a suicide bomber ready to explode on death, taking multiple victims with you.

Don’t do it, or else you’ll be faced with a two week ban on Xbox LIVE.

A patch for the glitch will arrive for PC Modern Warfare 2 players as soon as it’s ready, while PS3 and Xbox 360 users will need to wait for Sony and Microsoft to approve the update, which could mean it’ll be with us anytime from today until some time next week.

That being said... a suicide bomber perk could be an interesting addition though.... hmm...

[woodyear99]

I can hear the screams now "SUICIDE NOOB" lol

[Crixx_Creww]

hmm so u pull the pin, dont throw the grenade.. and switch to rpg then run up to someone

this is different from the perk in mw how?

[TheApprentice]

Well its in instant explosion...not a delayed grenade explosion. (no chance to run away).
And the blast radius is much bigger than a grenade.

[woodyear99]

Also if you pull a grenade it will explode on you after a short while, I assume with this bug you could run around/hide indefinitely until you get in range to an unfortunate victim.

Yes, i'm a first hand victim XD... also because the explosion is sizeable it'll take out anyone around you as well even if the man is not right next to you, hence it's annoying....

On the other hand, if they make a perk for it and balance it, so that say a suicide class has a limited blast radius, and unable to stack with marathon or lightweight... then it'd be sensible imho.

[Reaper2051]

isnt that already a challenge called Misery Loves Company or did they remove it?

[Arcmanov]

ROFL...Reaper, stop it. 

[Reaper2051]

no dude im serious, in COD4 and World at War there is a challenge I cant remember which section I think it was in elite or humiliation that you can accomplish the Misery Loves Company challenge by holding a live grenade an blowing yourself up along with any # of enemies in your area.
