Warzone Glitch Triggers Suspensions
Call of Duty: Warzone's Ranked Play plagued by game-crashing glitch resulting in unfair suspensions.
A critical bug in Call of Duty: Warzone's Ranked Play mode is causing widespread frustration among players. A developer error triggers game crashes, which are mistakenly interpreted as intentional quits, leading to automatic 15-minute suspensions and a 50 Skill Rating (SR) penalty. This is particularly damaging as SR directly impacts a player's competitive rank and end-of-season rewards.
The issue, highlighted by CharlieIntel and DougisRaw, follows a recent major update intended to address existing bugs. Instead, the January patch appears to have introduced new problems, adding to the already considerable player discontent. The ongoing issues, including persistent glitches and cheating, have fueled criticism of the developers' response time and effectiveness. Prior assurances of improved anti-cheat and bug-fixing measures following the Black Ops 6 Season 1 launch have proven insufficient.
Player outrage is palpable, with reports of lost win streaks and demands for SR compensation flooding online forums. The situation is further exacerbated by recent reports of a significant player drop-off in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, a decline of almost 50% on Steam, despite new content releases such as the Squid Game collaboration.
This confluence of issues underscores the urgent need for immediate and effective developer intervention to address the game-breaking glitches, restore player trust, and prevent further erosion of the player base. The current state of the game, described by some players as "ridiculously garbage," necessitates swift action to rectify the situation.
