It has been almost two months since the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but players are still finding new bugs in the game that are ruining the experience. Infinity Ward is transparent with their communication about all the issues with the title, but the list only keeps getting longer as another frustrating glitch has come to light.
