OneCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2player runs into an extremely badly timed glitch after attempting to pull off a very easy execution move on an unsuspecting player. While the game has been pretty stable overall, bugs and glitches can be common occurrences, especially in the larger environments ofWarzoneandDMZmodes. Some can be pretty harmless, like visual glitches or oneModern Warfare 2player that is sent flying after getting hit with a knife.
Some players hawve even run into game breaking issues, such as the infamous bug closer to theModern Warfare 2launch that would crash the game when players attempted to partyup together. While many of these issues have been largely fixed, the constantly evolving nature of live service titles means there’s always the possibility of something going wrong when a new update hits. Thankfully, this latest glitch clearly falls into the harmless category, though the player who experiences it definitely has a bit of bad luck in this case.

Over on theCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2subReddit, a user known as Jeremy623 posts a short video with the caption, “I love this game.” As fans will soon find out, the caption is clearly sarcasm as the player in question goes for an extremely easy execution move on therecently released Shoot House map. The enemy player appears to be camping the middle lane of the map, hard scoped and attempting to pick off other players on the other side or who may be crossing through the middle.
Sensing a pretty great opportunity, Jeremy623 finds this player standing with their back turned and completely unaware of the approaching danager. Taking control of the opportunity, Jeremy623 triggers the finishing move execution, but right before it finishes, the player is knocked out of the kill animation, and the enemy player is able to ultimately turn the tables and kill Jeremy623. While frustrating, fans have pointed out that this was caused by the change in elevation due to the ledge, with the player running out of room andCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2knocking them out of the animation as if they were falling.
Interestingly enough, the 2019 version ofModern Warfarehad the exact same issue. While there had been plenty of frustrated gamers back in theModern Warfaredays with glitched out executions, the elevation issue was proving to be a thorn in the side of players who wanted to use theModern Warfareseason 2 addition of Ghost. Simon Riley’s finisher had a lot of flash to it, not only was it longer, but it involved a sliding motion, which put players at greater risk of going off of a nearby ledge or drop which would then cancel out the animation.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
