Just to chime in, ive had 5 accs SB on the same hwid (for testing purposes) and was able to play on the 6th with no issue playing like a no life sweat. Yes i agree its easy for them to do but for whatever reason they dont. I'd say about 5-10% of ppl who get SB in turn get their HWID flagged or "SB". Idk what constitutes that or what reason, still havent figured that one out but its pretty rare. If they really wanted to they could just hwid flag anyone who has a SB acct. That'd solve alot of issues on their end but they need player retention/count so they wont/dont do it. AS of now HWID RARELY plays a factor when SB's. I wasted the first 4-5 months of MW3 testing SB's & Thresholds(would NOT recommend) so i got a lil "knowledge" with it. Its still very confusing and most of the time makes ZERO sense.Quote:
you're wild if you think HWID does not play any factor into your shadowban on an alternate account. it's a very easy implementation for them and one they already have in place, IE HWID bans to detect your serials. there is no logic to think COD is not at minimum smart enough to tag your serial to your alternate account (if you did not spoof).
this is why it's always a bad idea to play an alt on the same serial as your main or other account that is in an active shadow. you can bet your ass that it will take next to no reports to "aged" account get shadowed with very very few reports.
COD isn't stupid, just because you login to a new account with the same serials doesn't mean they're not well aware of your trust with them. tl;dr if you're going to use multiple accounts to cycle shadows, i'd 100000% recommend a temporary spoof with serials you can save (like IW use to have). i think reported.lol is that now.
