Raven software removed the Most Wanted contract from Call of Duty: Warzone after players found a way to exploit it to give them the invincibility of “god mode” – making them essentially invincible.
In a royal battle that became known for TTK uncomfortable fast (time-to-kill), a new exploit ironically does the opposite – making players completely and permanently invulnerable to damage. This is not even an exaggeration; whether it’s damage from falling, rounds of bullets or toxic gas, players in “god mode” can’t be hurt.
Discovered around the day after The April 15 Warzone patch released, players were accidentally blessed with the glitch or cursed by an enemy using it. Gaining popularity on social networks, fans quickly began to jump between indignation after the last patch.
As seen in the video below, there was an enemy player who is completely invincible in the hallway. First, they tried to hit them with snipes and that didn’t work. Then someone tried to run the “God Mode” exploit and it didn’t work either.
So is there a God Mode issue now? 💀 🎵 “One step forward, two steps back … with each update.” 🎵 from CODWarzone
As shared in other Reddit posts by players hoping to resolve this issue, it quickly became apparent that the issue was related to the most desired contracts.
Although we will not detail exactly how the operation is performed, the contracts played a key role and this meant that a simple, albeit temporary, solution was available: remove Most Wanted from the game.
This is exactly what Raven Software did shortly after the error began to gain notoriety on April 16: “We have updated Warzone to no longer include the Most Wanted contract in the Verdansk BR playlist. This contract was tied to players who enter an invincible state. ”

Like with a exploitation of invisibility related to attack helicopters, Warzone developers have solved the “god mode” errors by quickly deleting the Most Wanted contracts from Battle Royale.
As was the case with helicopters, which remain unavailable in Verdansk, it is possible that the contract will remain for a period of time after disposal.
But this is certainly the lesser of the two evils and a base of angry fans would rather not have the contract available than deal with pious and troubled enemies.
