It can happen even when not running a Raid
Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0andModern Warfare 2have had their fair share of glitches and errors in the past. The latest problem that some battle royale players are running into has to do with being locked out of certain modes. This is due to aWarzone 2.0andMW2Veteran Raid error.
How to fix theWarzone 2.0andMW2Veteran Raid error
TheWarzone 2.0andMW2Veteran Raid mode locked glitch is one of the most bizarre issues in a while. It prevents the player from being able to play certain game modes for no apparent reason. Thankfully, there is a quick fix for this problem that usually solves the issue for most players.
The solution is this: restart your game and attempt to queue up for the game mode again. This may seem like an odd fix but it generally works for most players. The error happens occasionally, potentially because of backend issues (more on that in a bit), and a restart can help with that.
However, if this doesn’t solve your problem, there is another possible solution. On the lobby screen where you’re able to queue up for a match, there is an option to “find a party.” This searches for other players looking for a squadmate, generally useful for players who want a team that communicates together but doesn’t have friends online.
If you search for a party this way, it can bypass the error by having you join a lobby where the host isn’t encountering this problem. Because of this, you’ll be able to get into a match without any issue. These two possible solutions are the best ways to currently get around the Veteran Raid locked mode glitch.
If you somehow aren’t able to find a party to join and you still have this error, your final option is to submit a support ticket toActivision. You’ll need to break down your issue and what’s happening in hopes of a possible update to address this soon.
Veteran Raid mode locked glitch, explained
As for what’s causing theMW2andWarzone 2.0Veteran Raid mode locked glitch, it is a strange one. The error message tells the player they are locked out of the Veteran Raid mode and then prevents them from being unable to play whatever game mode it is.
The problem is that this happens even if you aren’t playing aRaid event.This error can even happen for normal battle royale modes that are unrelated. As such, it doesn’t appear to be an actual issue with any Raid experiences at all.
Instead, the Veteran Raid error seems to be a random problem with matchmaking. It’s possible this could be due to an issue in the backend of the game that needs to be fixed. Alternatively, this could even be due to the changes to game modes that will likely occur withSeason 3’s release. Either way, hopefully a permanent fix is on the way soon.
