'Frustrating' Warzone Bug Is Tilting The Screen Sideways For Players

Back in the grasshopper era of gaming, with players earning their stripes on Club Penguin, there was always that one annoying tech-savvy child who knew that pressing windows, tab and an arrow would flip someone's screen on its side. Well, it appears that the same child is running riot at Activision, flipping Warzone players' screens on its side for the entirety of a game. There are a lot of Warzone fanatics waking up this morning with a sore neck thanks to them.

It sounds bizarre, but this latest Warzone glitch physically tilts Verdansk on a 45-degree angle, meaning players will have to play the remainder of the game with a twisted kneck if they want to win.

One Reddit post shows the glitch which seemingly stemmed from the players' vehicle being flipped. When user u/Venomx24 was ejected from his vehicle, his world was flipped on its head although his weapon was as normal.

Venomx24 could still mantle and climb objects as per usual, before giving up with the game. 

There is no clear fix to this unless you leave the game and head back to the dashboard. It is yet to be seen whether heading to the Gulag or dying and waiting for redeployment would have fixed this glitch too.

Infinity Ward has announced that a patch is due to roll out, although this has only happened to a minority of players as of yet, and could continue to plague Warzone players in the future.

This comes as the second Modern Warfare Season 6 glitch after the AS VAL can be found to shoot through through walls. Season 5 was also riddled with bugs ranging from parachutes to the return of the demon gun. Come on devs, sort it out!
