Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has finally fixed its stretchy Battle Pass user interface. The glitch was introduced at the start of Season 3 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but Infinity Ward hasn't wasted any time in resolving the issue.
Upon the game's initial release, the UI of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 came in for its fair share of criticism, with many claiming that immediate fixes were needed in order to make it usable. In the six months since, Infinity Ward has continued to make gradual updates to the user interface, but there are many out there that believe that game hasn't gone far enough with the changes yet. At this point, it's unlikely that the developer will ever commit to widespread changes to the UI, especially with the usual short lifespan of Call of Duty.
As pointed out by Redditor gorays21, the user interface of the Battle Pass no longer appears stretched, which was one of the stranger issues the game has been having recently. Despite the general criticism of the UI, most of MW2's glitches have been in-game. One Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 glitch even resulted in a fun rainbow camo, which is arguably more visually pleasing than an oddly stretched UI. Still, it's great that Infinity Ward has been so fast to fix this issue. It's not a huge issue, so it would've been understandable had the developer instead focused on other more pressing fixes at the beginning of Season 3.
The footage below, posted by Redditor burnout915, shows exactly how the Battle Pass UI originally looked in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. It's definitely an interesting glitch, and it's unclear how it actually happened in the first place. With it now fixed, it will go down as a distant memory for most players, with it only being in the game for a couple of days.
There has been plenty of controversy about the monetization in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Recently, the pay-to-win DMZ bundles in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 came under fire. In the past, Call of Duty has never fully ventured into pay-to-win territory, and this recent update sets a bad precedent for the series going forward. Hopefully it's just a momentary slip-up for the series, and it's something that isn't followed up on in the future. With Call of Duty 2023 set to be revealed in the coming months, the future of the series will become clearer soon enough.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is now available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
