The new season of Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 started nearly a month ago. With it came the new Battle Pass and various additions like the new map “Ashika Island”. But an unknown error has also been spotted alongside this newly added content.
What is Modern Warfare 2 Error #x41?
This error often happens to certain players when they want to start a new online match. The error is precisely shown when the matchmaker is trying to join a particular lobby to start a new game, which means It has something to do with the internet connection or game files.
You might be doing ok when starting new matches but suddenly face this issue when a friend joins the lobby. Here’s how you can fix this issue.
How to fix the #x41 Modern Warfare 2 error
- Leave it be! Easy as that. This error doesn’t clearly determine what is wrong with the game. The problem could be from the servers or the internet connection of you or your friends in the lobby. The best thing to do is wait a few minutes and don’t do anything until the match starts (even with the error on the screen).
- Check the game files for issues. This problem usually happens to PC players. Try checking the repair option in Steam or Battle.Net launcher.
- Check your internet connection. This Modern Warfare 2 error often happens when you have packet loss (over 2 per cent) or high latency.
- Use a DNS. Using a custom DNS can always help bypass errors in online games, and Modern Warfare 2 isn’t an exception. Tru using google DNS on your console in PC network settings.
- Restart the game. Sometimes there’s an update for the game’s playlist, which may require you to restart to apply changes.
- Enable the Crossplay feature. This might be hard to accept (if you don’t want crossplay). But sometimes, Modern Warfare 2 error #x41 is caused for not finding a match due to the low number of online players. Enabling the crossplay feature will allow PC and Console players to join the same lobbies. The more, the merrier!
