If you’ve experienced a frustrating crash while trying to enjoy Modern Warfare II with your friends, it’s crucial to download the latest game update as soon as possible. In a recent update shared on Twitter, the developer Infinity Ward acknowledged that they are aware of crashes affecting players when grouped in a party. By the end of the day, the studio announced that a “mitigation” would be implemented Saturday morning. As of 12:22 PM ET, this update is now live and being rolled out to all Modern Warfare II players. According to Infinity Ward, “Players in parties should see significant improvements,” indicating a positive step towards enhancing gameplay stability.

This fix is part of Infinity Ward’s ongoing efforts to resolve various launch issues impacting Modern Warfare II. For instance, some players have been unable to access the game’s menu while engaged in a match, which has caused considerable disruption to the gaming experience. Additionally, another issue has arisen, as noted in a separate tweet from Infinity Ward, which has created audio continuity problems specifically for PlayStation 4 users. Furthermore, the studio had to take action after players discovered a method to exploit the game, allowing them to track individual enemy players throughout a match, which undermined fair play.
