Reports Of Call Of Duty Modern Warfare ‘ Bricking Consoles’ Have Surfaced Online 30 October 201928 October 2019 by Lara Jackson While most of the world is revelling in the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, some unhappy players have found some serious issues with the game. Some players have taken to the internet to complain about the title bricking their consoles, while others have experienced a huge amount of other issues with the game. Over on Reddit, a user by the name of McVapey shared their story of the game bricking their Xbox One, claiming that it’s not only them that’s had an issue but their friend as well.

I attempted to turn my Xbox back on through the controller like normal, but I had to push the console’s button this time.

Repeat the previous cycle and the game starts again. 3rd time the game freezes and shuts my Xbox down, but this time after the green screen stays on for about 2 minutes and then the screen goes black. I’ve followed all of the reset options, hard reset, unplugged, let it sit, prayed to the universe, and nothing.

Anyone else want to chime in on what I can do/who I can contact?” The user later came back to the thread to add: “So after I posted this last night I continued to troubleshoot the problem. Tried the hard reset, unplugged everything, and did everything in between numerous times to no avail. So after 4 hours of leaving it alone and coming back with a new approach with no luck I called it a night. ADVERT ADVERT @ATVIAssist is it even safe to play cod atm on Xbox one x multiple cases of consoles being bricked some launch, imagine not including prestiges…- Mrxphy (@Mrxphy) October 27, 2019 “I read all the comments about the system overheating and thought I’d let it sit overnight with hopes today would bring better luck. So about an hour ago I tried to fire my console up. It green screened, and then went black again. So I let it sit, did some things around the house, and 45 minutes later… my home screen popped up. No errors, no hiccups, it just randomly started working like it has for the past 5 years. In the meantime, I’ve uninstalled my copy of CoD until I know it won’t continue to affect my console.” McVapey isn’t the only one to report an issue. The thread has since been flooded with similar complaints, though it seems to be confined to Xbox One players at the moment. @InfinityWard COD BRICKED MY XBOX AFTER ALL THE CRASHES- Phat Tony (@PhatTony458) October 26, 2019 At the time of writing, Activision has yet to respond to the complaints.ADVERT ADVERT Featured Image Credit: Activision Did you know we have a podcast?
