Modern Warfare 2 players ruin God Mode cheaters with this trick

Those who encounter players using the God Mode exploit in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 should combat the glitch with fire.

It didn’t take long for Call of Duty players to stumble across a God Mode glitch following the launch of Modern Warfare’s sequel.

This particular exploit requires the use of a riot shield that, under certain circumstances, will effectively turn a player invincible.

Suffice it to say, this is a problem that many MW2 users are all too eager to see nipped in the bud. Until a proper fix goes live, some people have found a temporary solution that supposedly nullifies the exploit.

Fight Modern Warfare 2’s God Mode glitch with fire

Call of Duty-dedicated news account ModernWarzone has offered advice to MW2 players who run into others using the riot shield glitch.

According to the Twitter user, “fire is the only way” to eliminate those leveraging the exploit in question. And, apparently, Molotov cocktails and thermite will do the trick.

If you run into somebody using the “god mode” exploit / glitch in #ModernWarfare2 SET THEM ON FIRE. Fire is the only way to kill them. Molotovs or thermite work.

The replies to the ModernWarzone post are filled with players saying they’ve encountered the God Mode glitch in Modern Warfare 2. It appears, then, that a large number of users are well aware of the exploit and have no qualms about using it to their advantage.

At the time of writing, there’s no word on whether developer Infinity Ward intends to issue a proper fix in the near future. Fans would do well to keep in mind the Molotov and thermite advice. Hopefully, the issue won’t plague the shooter for too much longer.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is in stores now for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms.
