Fix MW3 Season 2 Reloaded Keeps Crashing on PC MP Lobby
If the MW3 Season 2 Reloaded keeps crashing on your PC in the MP Lobby, you are no doubt looking for a way to fix this issue. Namely, instead of being able to play the game, it will instead crash to desktop when you enter the multiplayer lobby. Since this can happen over and over, players are, naturally, feeling frustrated and wondering if there’s anything that they can do on their end to somehow resolve this problem. The devs have also recognized it, and included it on their official Trello of global problems: “A limited number of Players are crashing when navigating to the Zombies, Multiplayer, and Multiplayer Private Match menus after the Season 2 Reloaded update.” Luckily, there is a method that you can use to fix this error, and we are going to go over it right here.
How to Fix MW3 Season 2 Reloaded Keeps Crashing on PC When Entering MP Lobby
Before we start, note that there is always a chance that this will mess something up with your installation. As such, you are doing it at your own risk. And with that disclaimer out of the way, let’s see how this works. The first thing that you need to do here is to exit the game. Then, what you have to do next is to navigate to where CoD MW3 is installed on your PC. You are looking for a specific folder. By default, it can be found in \Program Files (x86)\Call of Duty\_retail_\xpak_cache. The trick is to rename this xpak_cache folder to anything else. Once you have done that, restart the game. It should work as intended now.
If the game still isn’t working for you after this, then we recommend that you contact Activision support for further assistance. Hopefully, this issue is going to be resolved by the devs soon.
