Call of Duty Warzone recently received the Season 1 Reloaded update. Unfortunately, players have been facing various problems since, including a glitch that disables perk packages in custom loadouts. This is a huge problem as it is not limited to a single platform and has occurred for a majority of the community. Activision has not made any official announcements addressing this at the time of writing this article.
Warzone is a tactical shooter at its core, and squads are always risking matches to secure the loadout drops that can increase their chances of winning. The perk packages failing to work properly can make it very difficult to survive on the fast-paced battlefield. Fortunately, the developer has already started churning out small patches to fix the existing problems.
This article will highlight the possible fixes for Warzone’s perks not functioning in online lobbies, though you should note that none are guaranteed to work.
How to fix Warzone perks not working error
Here is a list of methods you can use to try and solve Warzone’s recurring issue of the perk packages malfunctioning.
- Restart your game once to enter a new session. A fresh reset can sometimes help the client fire up all the required dependencies and run the game smoothly.
- You can try using the default loadouts in the game for a while instead of the custom ones. The default perks seem to be working as intended for some players.
- Deleting the entire class setup and creating it from scratch might help you. This could solve the issue and reactivate the perks functionality.
- You should exit the game and check for any new updates. There is a chance that the devs have already released a new patch to fix these issues. All you need to do is let the client download and install it before restarting the game.
Contact the official Activision Support team and raise a ticket if you continue facing the problem. It is important to note that the publisher and dev team are aware of the glitches being faced by players post the latest mid-seasonal update. However, it might take them a while to investigate the issues properly and find the root cause. They will no doubt get to fixing all the problems soon.
Possible reasons
The failure of a core gameplay mechanic hints toward the game client being unable to fire up the necessary features. This would mean that the recent update has somehow broken the system that operates and oversees all game functionalities. In that case, it is a problem that the user cannot solve and must be fixed with a new patch from the devs.
There is a small chance that the problem lies on the user side, which is possible only if some of their files are corrupted. In such a scenario, a fresh reinstall of Warzone should easily fix the problems.
