Modern Warfare 2 Patch Causes Disruption in Multiplayer Matches, Frustrating Community

The most recent patch for Modern Warfare 2 caused an unanticipated influence on the reliability of multiplayer matches, which frustrated community members.

Call of Duty and Modern Warfare 2 have had their fair share of bugs in the past. In the worst possible scenario, a bug in God mode caused players to gain invincibility and destroyed matches. Due to a bug in Season 2, players were able to wear two riot shields at the same time. Hence these shields appear in a variety of sizes and shapes. The most recent error causes havoc in public and private multiplayer matches, which has wider-reaching repercussions for the competitive Call of Duty community.

May 16 patch breaks Modern Warfare 2 matches played in multiplayer mode

On May 16, Infinity Ward distributed a relatively minor patch. In addition to fixing flaws that affected both games, the update made the GS Magna and FTAC Siege in Warzone 2 less effective. Most of the adjustments only affected Modern Warfare 2, although the multiplayer component ended up being negatively harmed. According to information provided by CharlieIntel, “Today’s new update appears to have broken many parts of the game for some players.”

Due to a glitch, the spectator overlay in the video kept flickering and filling up the screen, even though the player was not even spectating. The bug also caused significant tearing to the screen, nearly rendering the game unplayable. In the comment box, people in the community shared their thoughts. The content creator for Call of Duty, HunterTV, responded: “Every day I wake up, and there is something wrong with this game.” I’m sorry, but I can’t take it any longer.”

A second user asserted that this problem had already been present at one point. “We can’t keep doing this. This was present during the launch, and I’m glad it’s made a comeback. According to a report from The Rotation, the issue has also affected custom games and Ranked Play. We hope this keeps all players from losing their Skill Ratings and matches. If the custom games aren’t functioning correctly, it’s also possible that Challengers and CDL teams won’t be able to host any scrims with each other. To this point, Infinity Ward has not provided a statement regarding the matter. We will let you know if the developers decide to implement a patch immediately.
