Upon their release, both Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2 were plagued by crash issues. While I understand that these types of issues are to be expected to some extent, the longevity of the crashes in these games has proven to be problematic. Many players have noted the issue on the official support page for these games.
However, at the time, the developers did not respond to the crashing issues. As a result, players were left to try and fix the issues on their own or simply tolerate them. Fortunately, Bennox, the developer of the PC version of Call of Duty, addressed a universal cause of the constant crashing issues in Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2. We will be discussing this in this post.
What is Bennox’s perspective on the crashing issues in Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2?
Bennox is the only development team associated with the Call of Duty PC version and serves as the point of contact for any questions about the game. Recently, the new Call of Duty games Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2 were released on global servers. Upon launch, the games received a lot of attention, but PC players soon experienced a significant number of crashing issues while playing.
Players have previously sought help from developers regarding the crashing issues. However, in the past, developers have not typically disclosed information openly about such issues. According to a recent tweet from Bennox, the main cause of crashing issues is the use of outdated GPU drivers. They recommend using NVIDIA: 526.86/AMD: 22.9.1 to minimize crashing issues.
After reviewing the various crashing problems, Bennox found that the majority of players were using outdated graphics cards. If you are unsure of how to update your GPU drivers manually, we have provided some instructions below, as recommended by Bennox.
- Press the Windows + R key on your keyboard.
- Type devmgmt.msc and press Enter.
- Under the ‘display adapters’ section, right click on your graphics card and select ‘properties’.
- Go to the ‘driver’ tab and click on ‘update driver’.
- Click on ‘Automatically check for updated driver software’.
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
However, Bennox does not claim that updating your graphics drivers will completely resolve all crashing issues. While it is confirmed that many problems related to crashes will be fixed, there may still be other issues that need to be addressed. This is a positive step towards developers acknowledging and addressing more issues in the future.
In conclusion, Bennox has issued a brief advisory stating that updating the graphics driver to its latest version or the recommended version can help fix most crashing issues. We have provided instructions on how to update your GPU drivers. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask them in the comments below.
