However, not everything went according to plan. Following reports from various sources suggesting that players are abusing the glitch to level up weapons, Raven Software has now issued a notice stating TOP SECRET has been “temporarily disabled.”

The TOP SECRET contracts are usually bounties, recons, most wanted or supply runs in the game. But as previously stated, not everything went according to plan for Raven Software. Due to a glitch/bug, players using the new contract were rewarded with “unintended Cash and XP rewards,” making leveling up weapons faster than ever in the game’s history.

To give you an idea of how crazy the feature was, popular Warzone Creator/competitor, NRG Isaac, claimed to reach up to level 16 starting at level 1 in solo within 10 minutes using TOP SECRET contracts, in a recent video.

The game-breaking addition handed out insane amounts of rewards, weapons XPs, and in-game cash. Some reports even suggested a few players racked up to 1800 to 2500 weapon XP using this trick. Rather than other major problems, fans seem infuriated following Raven’s concern with the mentioned feature.

Fortunately for Raven, and unfortunately for players, the issue came to light considerably fast and is under check. Currently, the devs have not released any other statement apart from their tweet and Trello board, both of which are the same.
