Warzone \u201cWhitelist\u201d error appears and players are confused ActivisionA Call of Duty: Warzone \u201cWhitelist\u201d error has begun popping up and players are very confused. With concerns already rampant about whitelisted hackers and streamers, the new in-game bug is earning some intrigue. A number of Warzone players have been unable to log into the game the week of the mid-season update. When trying to enter, they\u2019re blocked and met with a new error: \u201cWhitelist Failure.\u201d In the past, whitelists have been a hot topic as fans believe that streamers are put in groups that allow them to not get banned or to get into easier lobbies. As such, it\u2019s likely no surprise that this new error is causing speculation. While some are taking this issue as proof that streamer whitelists do exist, others have pushed back against that narrative. Warzone \u201cWhitelist Error\u201d confuses players trying to log on BREAKING \u2013 A new error that mentions “”WHITELIST FAILURE”” is appearing for players attempting to play #Warzone. pic.twitter.com\/yLqtpnTPeB \u2014 ModernWarzone (@ModernWarzone) January 13, 2022 As you can see in the embedded tweet, the \u201cWhitelist Failure\u201d error doesn\u2019t allow players to sign into Warzone. Its specific code is XX-1036F. In the replies, a number of users suggested this new problem is evidence of earlier \u201cconspiracy theories\u201d surrounding streamer privileges. One user emphatically responded with \u201cCHEATING STREAMER WHITELIST CONFIRMED\u201d (to the delight of 44 Twitter likes), while another asked if this means that \u201cbadboybeamin was right?\u201d That question refers to a popular (and divisive) hack accuser, who has argued that streamers cheat and are protected by Activision via whitelists. However, others\u2014like the reputable CharlieIntel\u2014have suggested this error is not related to those suspicions. All players have to be \u201cwhitelisted\u201d to be allowed on the servers. It seems like some people in certain regions were kicked out with the new update. And there\u2019s features like this for custom tournaments. \u2014 CharlieIntel (@charlieINTEL) January 13, 2022 In CI\u2019s tweet, it\u2019s explained that all Warzone players are actually whitelisted \u201cto be allowed on the servers.\u201d This issue, therefore, appears to be a bug that caused gamers in certain regions to be knocked out of said lists. Thus far, the region most impacted by the error seems to be Europe. Further, it doesn\u2019t appear that any North American accounts have been affected. News of the universal whitelist is novel for players, but many have known that a system is in place to whitelist players involved in private tournaments (like the World Series of Warzone). Regardless, fans seem to be monitoring this new error with sharp eyes and we\u2019ll keep abreast of any updates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
