It is almost every day that a new glitch or bug is discovered inCall of Duty: Warzone.Bugs have become such a prominent part of the game that fans are no longer surprised when they occur. Still,Call of Duty: Warzonebugs are usually the result of an unexpected sequence of events that the game’s engine can not handle.

In a video posted to Reddit, user iDailyTheMach1 had an unfortunate encounter with a player who was probably as surprised as they were. After landing on a building, the player headed inside to try and secure the floor of enemy threats. Heading down the stairs, they crouched near a doorway, waiting for an enemy to ascend up the nearby elevator shaft.
Almost on queue, a player disembarks and is swiftly downed, but instead of laying there helpless, they managed to pull out a gun and continue firing at their aggressor. Out of panic, the active player eliminates them swiftly, as the enemy onlyfired off two rounds from theirWarzoneshotguninto the air. This is a rather new bug, but players are starting to see it occur more frequently. The common factor in almost every appearance being the elevator disembark sequence.
This can be a bigger problem considering thelaunch ofCall of Duty:WarzoneSeason 5added new zip lines at the base of several buildings. With this glitch affecting those who use quick ascension methods, there is a higher chance of it manifesting with the new ziplines in place.
One thing that iDailyTheMach1 confirms in the comments is the surprise when adownedCall of Duty:Warzoneplayerstarts unloading shells. While they were thankfully unharmed, it is still a disconcerting notion that a player that should be harmless could have downed them in a matter of seconds.
Still, this is not the mostunusual bug to appear inWarzone.As the game experiences randomized zones, the chances of this bug affecting a major outcome are slim. While it is good for fans to be aware that this issue does exist, it does not necessarily warrant rapid developer response.
