How to report players in Modern Warfare 3 beta?

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (MW3) is operating in its second beta phase, and players have stated that there is a small percentage of cheaters in the game. Fortunately, such miscreants can be reported through the reporting system to bring up any suspicious gameplay or activity. The process is quite similar to MW3’s prequel and has a functioning list of options when trying to report someone.

Modern Warfare 3 will be utilizing the same Ricochet Anti-Cheat system since it's already ingrained in the Call of Duty HQ platform. The developers must properly enforce the cheat detection system and reduce the number of third-party software users in the title to create a better gameplay experience.

This article will outline how you can report players in Modern Warfare 3.

Reporting players in Modern Warfare 3 beta

Here is a quick guide on how you can report players while playing Modern Warfare 3 in case of suspected cheating.

• You can quickly access your scoreboard while in-game with keybinds (Tab for PC).
• Go over the name of the player you think might be cheating and select it to open up an extended menu.
• You can then select the “report” option and click on it to head to the reporting menu.
• The overlay will provide various choices, including cheating and exploiting glitches, alongside a text box on the right to describe the problem.
• By using both of these options, you can report a player to the developers and even get their accounts flagged.
• Moreover, you can visit the friends and party menu and report players from the recent players section if you failed to report them in the previous match through the scoreboard.

It's important to note that MW3 is currently in a test environment and features only basic multiplayer functionality. However, it seems that the reports go through and hopefully get investigated. The reports allow developers to clean up the servers and remove as many cheaters as possible to provide a fair playing ground.

Considering previous trends, MW3 is likely to be swarmed by cheaters in the beginning, as Sledgehammer Games would require some time to bolster the defenses. However, once the anti-cheat engine is fully operational with the new shooter, many of them start getting shadow-banned and permanently removed from the game.

It is crucial to have a functioning report system as well to discourage players from polluting the servers with toxicity in voice and text chats and to prevent griefing. If all the previous issues from the 2022 prequel can be avoided in the new game, there is a high chance that MW3 will emerge as a leading shooter title.

Modern Warfare 3, being a pay-to-play game, also helps it drive away a huge chunk of cheaters, as the risk of getting banned and losing the user account is high. If you observe suspicious gameplay, directly report it to the Activision support team.
