A series of weird bugs in a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 match bore unexpected outcomes for one player, resulting in a hilarious camera perspective where they had a bird's-eye view of a Killstreak. Bugs and glitches are commonplace in video games, and titles of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's scale experience bugs that tend to be bizarre and pose a challenge for even experienced developers.
Upon its initial release in October 2022, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 enjoyed a wave of new and returning Call of Duty players. Many Modern Warfare 2 players especially enjoy the Shipment 24/7 Playlists, where players can play one of Call of Duty's most iconic maps without any breaks.
A Reddit user named Human_TM posted a video of themselves experiencing a string of unfortunate events where using a Killstreak causes them to become invisible while witnessing hilarious camera angles in a match of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The video starts with Human_TM using the Chopper Gunner Killstreak, where the assault vehicle promptly plunges into the sea after spawning. As the helicopter blows up, Human_TM's camera perspective shifts to a corner of Shipment, with the player stuck and invisible, unable to do anything but somehow still getting kills from the Killstreak. Surprisingly, Human_TM calls in additional Killstreaks when the camera perspective shifts to an incoming Mortar shell and switches back to the player, invisible and still stuck in a corner. The clip ends with Human_TM trying to fix the bug by changing loadouts, to no avail.
Other players have commented on the post, noting the hilarity of the situation, and some even jokingly mentioned that Human_TM became the Killstreak themselves. Several players stated that the bug isn't new, and others have posted similar accounts, with one player witnessing events from the camera perspective of a grenade instead. Other players have noted that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's performance isn't up to snuff, even with such a high price tag and regular patches.
Thankfully, this bug seems to be a rare occurrence in Shipment, and with Season 3 bringing new Playlists, it should be even harder to encounter. Players can hope that the developers at Activision have acknowledged this problem and shipped a quick fix in the upcoming patch for Season 3 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
