ACall of Duty: Warzone 2player discovered a weird bug when a helicopter flew through a building and ended up killing their teammate. The team was inside a building when theCall of Duty: Warzone 2vehicle appeared out of nowhere and ran into one of the players.
Call of Duty: Warzone 2is hugely popular and has a lot of players across all available platforms. Because of this, it’s not too surprising to see some bugs pop up in-game occasionally.Warzone 2does seem to have some issues specifically with helicopters clipping through walls or flying through buildings and killing players, however. A similar bug showed ahelicopter killing aCall of Duty: Warzone 2player through a wallas well.

The video was posted to theCall of Duty: Warzone 2subreddit by player Riley_Weninger, and it starts with their squad sprinting around the inside of a building and grabbing a few items. As Riley_Weninger turns around to head back toward one of their teammates, they see the rotors of a helicopter start to appear through the floor directly below their teammate. As the helicopter rises through the floor it downs Riley_Weninger’s teammate and carries them up to the ceiling where they die. The teammate’s loot falls to the ground as the helicopter makes its way free of the building and disappears. It seems as though this is not only a somewhat common bug but also Raven Software is having trouble balancing helicopters sinceheavy choppers have been disabled inWarzone 2.
Being killed by a helicopter gone rogue, or having a teammate killed by it, definitely seems like it could be frustrating. It does make for a funny video and a great story to tell, but if a team is close to pulling out a win and loses because of a helicopter bug, that’s a different situation entirely. This bug is common enough that some players in the video comments complained about people posting videos of it too often, and it has been documented as happening to multiple players. While there areplenty of bugs inCall of Duty: Warzone 2for Raven Software to deal with, this one should probably be moved to the top of the priority list.
A quick fix might be temporarily disabling the vehicles that are involved in the bug. This might make it impossible to accomplishimpressive James Bond-style maneuvers inWarzone 2, but making sure that players aren’t randomly taken out by a glitching helicopter is probably more important. Regardless, players are still enjoying the game, and that seems unlikely to change whether the bugs are fixed or not.
Call of Duty: Warzone 2is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
