Modern Warfare 3 Ban Wave Tracker

RICOCHET· Community ban reports

Modern Warfare 3 Spoofer→RICOCHET hub→No Ban Wave

Modern Warfare 3 players have been reporting an increase in hardware bans recently. RICOCHET, the anti-cheat system protecting Modern Warfare 3, operates as a kernel-level driver that monitors system activity and collects deep hardware telemetry including TPM data, firmware serials, and network adapter IDs. When it detects a violation, it doesn't just ban your account — it can flag your entire machine, preventing you from playing even on a fresh account.

This tracker aggregates real-time ban reports from the Modern Warfare 3 community. The chart below visualizes reporting patterns over the past 90 days, making it easy to spot ban waves as they happen. If you've just been banned, check whether other players are experiencing the same thing — a spike in reports usually means a coordinated anti-cheat sweep rather than an isolated incident.

About these reports

The reports on this page are community submissions from Modern Warfare 3 players who were banned for any reason — anti-cheat detections, ban waves, false flags, account-sharing, cheat-software use, suspicious behaviour, payment disputes, and so on. They are not bans that occurred while running TraceX HWID Spoofer. TraceX rewrites hardware identifiers to bypass an HWID ban after the fact — the data here exists so players can see ban-wave patterns and decide what to do next.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a Modern Warfare 3 ban wave right now?+
Check the live ban report chart above. If you see a spike in reports over the last 24-48 hours, a ban wave is likely in progress. When reports stay below normal levels, it's more likely that individual bans are being issued rather than a coordinated sweep.
What should I do if I got banned in Modern Warfare 3?+
Start by identifying what type of ban you received. Use the HWID Ban Checker below to diagnose whether it's an account ban, IP ban, or hardware ban. Account bans only affect one account. HWID bans flag your PC's hardware identifiers, meaning every new account you create on the same machine will also get banned.
How does RICOCHET detect hardware bans in Modern Warfare 3?+
RICOCHET operates as a kernel-level driver that monitors system activity and collects deep hardware telemetry including TPM data, firmware serials, and network adapter IDs. It builds a unique profile of your machine and checks it against a database of banned hardware signatures. If your hardware profile matches, you're banned before you even get past the login screen.
How often does Modern Warfare 3 run ban waves?+
There's no fixed schedule — Modern Warfare 3's ban waves depend on when RICOCHET updates its detection methods. Sometimes waves happen weekly, other times there can be months of quiet followed by a large sweep. This tracker helps you spot the pattern.
Can I play Modern Warfare 3 again after a hardware ban?+
A hardware ban can only be bypassed by changing the identifiers that RICOCHET flagged. This means either replacing physical components or using an HWID spoofer to rewrite the identifiers permanently — TraceX does this once, then you delete the binary and reinstall Modern Warfare 3 on a clean profile.
