THIS IS NOT A FLAMING THREAD. THIS IS NOT A THREAD WHERE WE WILL ARGUE ABOUT WHICH GAME IS BETTER AND WHY/WHY NOT. THIS IS A DISCUSSION AND A DEMAND TO TREYARCH TO TEST THEIR MAPS FOR BOTH OUR AND THEIR BENEFIT.
---------------------------------------Main Thread-----------------------------------
TEST YOUR MAPS!! Have beta tests for any new content! All these glitches are absolutely absurd! I was one of the COD: WaW beta testers and there were plenty of glitches found. But, because there was beta testing on those maps, when the actual game came out, THEY WERE FIXED!! Almost every map in COD: WaW has some glitch that could easily be diagnosed through simple beta testing.
Beta testers could be found through a type of contest; a certain # of people could be chosen at random to receive a special code to get the maps to test. Anything they found could be reported and fixed. Not only would this make this more fair for players, it would be great advertisement.
Also, Beta testing could be done by EVERYONE through special time trials. After recieving a code, players can use and explore all the maps, but only for a limited time; say 1-24 hours.
Obviously, not all the glitches will be found, but anything major will be. When Treyarch rushes map releases, it ruins the balance of the game and makes for an unfair playing experience and ultimately ruins Treyarch's overall reputation.
BOTTOM LINE: TEST YOUR MAPS!!!
Any thoughts- please post.

(I wrote)- If you want proof that Treyarch needs to test their maps, look at the people who have gone over 2,000 rounds in Zombies. I would bet my Xbox that a good 99.999 percent of those people didn't do that legit and it isn't fair to the other players.
(Foxrot noted)- We pay for these maps!! Treyarch should at least have the decency to test the maps you have to pay for because without doing so, it completely ruins the balance of the leader boards.
(SeeFourGoesBoom wrote)- This is where Infinity Ward has the upper hand. The Nacht Der Untoten leaderboards are embarrassing. They now have no option but to sit there at glare at each glitcher that can argue the case that it was legit, therefore dismissing the option to delete every high round game.
(I wrote)- There are way too many matches being played to record and observe all of them. I could see maybe monitoring games after people get to level 100-500 or so. That way, if people aren't doing it right, their game will be ended and their scores deleted.

then- the beta testers go into private games, then they should try to DO crazy ass stuff.
