Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s multiplayer frequenters haven’t had the most seamless experience thus far. From a variety of necessary patches and updates to homicidal office chairs, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare hasn’t been devoid of its share of technical issues. It looks like we’ll have to add another one to the list, as a bug was discovered that causes players to glitch out of the Piccadilly multiplayer map.
A recent video posted to the Reddit page for Modern Warfare by site user PearlyGatesOfHELL shows the glitch in action. Apparently, one player managed to find their way into a normally inaccessible building and started firing away at the enemy team, landing successful shots every time. The video can be seen below.
The video starts out with the player on the streets of London, igniting and tossing a flare, just before rushing outside the boundaries of the map. As the timer warning the player to get to the “combat area” counts down, the player and a few teammates attempt to kill the “glitcher” who is inside a building, but the killcam shows that they were merely camping in the unrendered interior of the building. It turns out that while the “glitcher” was protected from inside the building, they were still able to shoot out towards attackers and inflict damage.
The clip doesn’t reveal how this glitch was possible, but it is clear that the glitch does need addressing. There’s no telling how widespread the issue is, but it enables players aware of the glitch to become virtually invincible and unfairly rack up their and their team’s kill count.
Unfortunately, this glitch is just another drop in the bucket for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s multiplayer gameplay. While murderous chairs are an issue that needs addressing, there have also been things like the killfeed bug, the overpowered shotgun that required multiple patches, the bug that wouldn’t allow high-ranking players to join games, and other nonsensical errors.
Hopefully, this bug gets fixed soon. It isn’t currently one plaguing the game, but it does prevent an otherwise highly-acclaimed game from reaching its full potential.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is currently available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
