There might be a simple solution to player's woes

Warzone 2.0 might've just launched, but that hasn't stopped looting from becoming a hot topic of conversation already.

Elsewhere, players are also discovering that they can't invite their friends in Warzone 2.0, but just like this issue, there's a considerably easy fix.
New tweaks to Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0 have made the drill charge even better at killing campers and delivering swift justice.
