Due to a glitch, players of Call of Duty: Warzone are currently building completely overpowered weapons without recoil – the developers respond within hours.
When observing hardcore speedrunners of classic games like Zelda on the N64, one can often witness a choreographed dance of glitches.
Sometimes one thinks – how were such things discovered? Who took the time to explore the game’s errors so deeply?
With the latest glitch in Call of Duty: Warzone, a similar thought arises. Through a crazy sequence of specific actions, attachments can be built on weapons that are not actually intended for them.
This leads to completely overpowered setups without recoil and guilt.
Glitch allows more attachments – also mixes CoD eras
What kind of error is this? The glitch allows players to transfer attachments of a held weapon in the match to another weapon in their own loadout.
This leads to excessively strong weapons, as especially the newer Vanguard weapons have a few extremely strong attachments that are not available for every weapon.
We have embedded a Twitter clip here, showing how extremely stable some weapons can be built thanks to this:
However, it’s not just about Vanguard weapons. The guns from Cold War and CoD MW can also be “upgraded” with this method – not without breaking the rules, of course.
How does it work? We will refrain from providing instructions for this glitch. However, the sequence of actions, as mentioned, falls into the category: “How does one discover such things?”
Will it stay that way? A few hours after the glitch made its rounds through the CoD community, the developers from Raven Software already responded to the issue.
On Twitter, the devs write:
Tweet translation: “We are investigating a problem that inadvertently allows weapon attachment perks to be transferred between weapons.”
The developers are currently investigating the issue and will provide a solution as quickly as possible. However, it cannot be said for sure how long this will take. It is possible that the glitch will remain in the game for over a week or will be removed as early as this week.
However, it usually does not take long.
It remains to be seen how extensively the glitch will be used by players to turn otherwise useless weapons into OP weapons.
Especially the new Vanguard perks like “Careful Aim” or “Stable Grip” could cheat old weapons into huge potential. But also “Dexterity” on a Kar 98k from CoD MW would have strong effects.
If you decide to try the glitch yourself, remember that you could quickly be seen as a cheater. If you receive too many reports from players, you might end up like this cheater: Cheater desperately struggles with CoD Warzone’s anti-cheat – “Enemies just disappear!”
