ACall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2player uncovered a glitch that caused an execution animation to glitch out and get them killed by the player they were trying to execute. The finishing move animation stopped and started four times in a manner similar to other glitches found inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
Executions were also present in the 2019 entryCall of Duty: Modern Warfareand were similarly known for occasionally glitching out, though they did make for intensely satisfying kills when pulled off. This satisfaction is exasperated by the fact that each operator has their own specialized execution, giving each one a personal touch. This is similar to howgames such asApex Legendshandle executions, though similar to that game, executions inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2are only satisfying if they work properly.

When an execution goes wrong, it is not only frustrating but often leads to fatal consequences for the player performing it. This is what happened to a user who goes by s1501 on theCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2subreddit. They shared a clip of them attempting to do an execution on a player five times in a row due to the animation repeatedly glitching out. The execution came the closest to finishing on the third attempt but was cut off halfway through, leaving them exposed and then killed by the enemy they were targeting, similar to what happened to another user on thenewly released Shoot House map.
User s1501 titled their post “I hate this game” to express their frustration, which other users found humorous. Comments under the post suggest that the glitch could have been the result of there not being enough space for the execution animation to play out. This is particularly disappointing to players since they need to perform executions tounlock certain items inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, meaning a player can be kept from certain cosmetics just by doing executions in the wrong place.
TheCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2community has not been shy about sharing its frustrations with the game’s litany of bugs and glitches, especially as some of the game’s most popular features are hampered by performance issues, such as theCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2campaign mode launching with a game-breaking bug. Being discouraged from utilizing one of the most satisfying mechanics in the game due to an elusive glitch is disheartening for players looking to pull off a clean kill or unlock a certain cosmetic. Executions are yet another mechanic that players will hope is optimized in future updates forCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
