Attachment tuning has been disabled after reports of crashes in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

The new feature is part of the Gunsmith system and was previously in older Call of Duty titles. The Gunsmith allows players to add attachments to their guns. This includes scopes, magazines, muzzles, grips and stocks. Once a weapon has been leveled up to the maximum rank, players get access to attachment tuning.

Attachment tuning allows players to adjust sliders that impact specific stats for a weapon. For instance, affecting one attachment can affect the impact of another. However, players who have all five attachments on their weapon tuned have been facing crashes.

Infinity Ward has now decided to turn off the tuning feature until the cause has been identified and fixed. The announcement was made on the official Twitter account for Infinity Ward, with the studio saying: “We are disabling attachment tuning until further notice to investigate crashes for users with five attachments tuned.

“If you currently have a tuned attachment equipped, you will need to unequip and re-equip it to use your loadout.”

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 released on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC on October 28.
