New Season, new glitch on Call of Duty Warzone
To be honest, the game has had its fair share of issues and glitches over the years. So, what happens in this current glitch is various textures in the game into shard-like pieces, thus blocking the view.
When this happens to the textures of the weapons, frankly that makes the players look like they are wielding alien-infected symbiotic guns. You’d basically look like a boss villain from Dark Souls. And it does look really cool. But then, the glitch is causing major problems in player efficiency, as one would expect it to do.
Hey @ATVIAssist this graphical glitch on guns started happening every couple games for me in warzone ever since the season 5 update, has not happened prior. I play on PC, is there a fix for this? Or are you guys aware of this happening? pic.twitter.com/UfStAFE6hA

Players who have experienced this are sure that this glitch was not there in the previous seasons of Modern Warfare. Now, this does come as a bit of bad news because the updates in the game that this season brought are genuinely impressive. This latest glitch is yet another example of how broken the game is.

Warzone brought a lot of new features to the Battle Royal genre and there has been some issue or the other in the game. The hacker-infested lobbies, the lack of gun balance in the arsenal, and now, this performance issue. Infinity Ward and Activision should look into this graphical glitch since its making the game unplayable.
Update: According to the public Infinity Ward – Modern Warfare Trello board, this issue has been fixed and the fixture will show in an upcoming update.
