While facing issues is nothing new after several months of its launch, there are a few moments that have left some players speechless and shocked. Something similar happened with an individual, known as u/RagingWombat111 on Reddit. The user shared a video from their gameplay session of Warzone 2.

The clip shows u/RagingWombat111 getting ready for the 1v1 Gulag fight with their opponent. As the countdown timer starts before the round, the video shows the enemy player moving freely around them. The other player was having the rifle in their hands. Thanks to the weird glitch, the enemy was able to kill u/RagingWombat111 before the end of the countdown itself!
