Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has a weird lighting bug that results in light orbs appearing on different areas of the map. This glitch can potentially reduce visibility in some instances, resulting in a poor experience. The lighting bug, however, only seems to occur in the game's Campaign mode.
Modern Warfare 2's Campaign is widely praised for its beautiful graphics and immersive gameplay. However, the lighting bug is currently creating a nuisance in the mode. Players have reported that light orbs will appear out of nowhere and be visible throughout the game's world.
Moreover, it can also enhance light sources such as bulbs, lamps, flares, and more in a negative way by making them bigger and brighter. This takes away the realistic and immersive experience that the game set out to deliver.
As mentioned earlier, the lighting bug is exclusive to the video game's Campaign mode. Moreover, as reported by fans, the glitch seems more likely to occur in the Prison Break, Alone, and Ghost Team missions of the game.
The first two missions mentioned take place at night, making all the buggy light orbs pop out and ruin immersion. Ghost Team, however, takes place during the day. Although the bug is present in this mission, it doesn't impact the game as much.
The glitch has been in the game since its launch and still hasn't been fixed. However, the Call of Duty community has found a fix that completely solves the problem. To fix the lighting bug in Modern Warfare 2's Campaign, follow the steps below:
1) First, quit the mission you are in and head over to the main menu. Please note that you will lose all the progress that you have made in the mission so far.
2) Once you are on the main menu of Call of Duty HQ, proceed to the Campaign section
