In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare a nasty bug is making the rounds, which could provide an unfair advantage. We will show you the problem.
This is the glitch: This error allows you to start a round before all other players. You have about 10 seconds of lead time and can walk to the enemy spawn to shoot them immediately.
This gives you a nasty advantage and especially in the right game modes this can be game-deciding.
Players show nasty glitch – Developers promise improvement
This is the glitch: The error itself has been in the game for several days. For example, 3 days ago, the reddit user “koopabeach” posted about the error he was able to benefit from:
Here the error is particularly severe: In matches where there is a respawn, you cannot decide entire rounds at least. In other modes like “Search and Destroy” this glitch is game-deciding. You can directly eliminate a whole enemy team and claim victory just because you spawned 10 seconds before everyone else.
This was shown by a Twitter user:
How does the glitch occur? This is not quite clear. Several players report that they suddenly managed to start a round before everyone else. There does not seem to be a precise principle behind it.
What is being done against the glitch? Already last week Infinity Ward commented on this bug. Joe Cecot, the Co-Design Director of Infinity Ward, stated that the bug is awful, but they currently have no solution for it.
Even a week later, there seems to be no improvement regarding this error. So it might well be that you suddenly start a round before everyone else. However, you might also be disadvantaged and be taken out immediately upon spawning, so be vigilant right at the start of the round.
