The good thing is that all the above errors could easily be fixed using one or two tips. So without further ado, let’s check out the fixes.

Fix 1: Repair via Battle.Net Client

The first fix in this matter calls the Battle.Net Client. It’s scan and repair feature searches for all the errors and then will fix it accordingly. To try it out, follow the below steps:

How To Fix Game Crashes On Mac Os

  1. Open the Battle.Net Client on your PC and select the Call of Duty Modern Warfare game.
  2. On the right-hand side, you will see the menu bar, select Options from it.
  3. Now select the Scan and Repair option from the drop-down menu that appears (see attached image above).
  4. Wait for some time until the client searches for and rectifies the issues. When that is done, launch the Call of Duty game (which could be done right from the client itself). See if the Call of Duty crashing after match error has been fixed or not. If not, try the next fix given below.

Fix 2: Automatic Update Graphics Card

If you are using an old or outdated graphics card, then it might cause conflict with the proper functioning of the game. Therefore, follow the below steps to update your graphics card:

  1. Launch the Start menu and search for Device Manager. You could also open it by right-clicking on the Windows icon and selecting the said option.
  2. Next up, head over to the Display adapter section and click on it to expand it.
  3. Right-click on your graphics card and select Update Drivers.
  4. In the next popup that appears, select Search automatically for updated graphics driver.
  5. Wait till Windows find the appropriate latest drivers for your PC. When that happens, it will automatically be downloaded and install.
  6. Give your PC a reboot after the installation is over and then launch the game. Check whether the Call of Duty crashing after match error has been corrected or not.

Fix 3: Manual Updation of Graphics Card

if the automatic update didn’t give any fruitful results, then you could try the manual up-gradation. For that head over to the official site of your graphics driver and download the latest version. For Nvidia, go to its download page, enter your product type, series, and OS version and hit the Download button.

Likewise, AMD download’s page also has the latest Radeon driver updates. Once you have downloaded and installed the latest graphics on your PC, restart it. Now launch the game and see if the Call of Duty crashing after match error has been rectified or not.

Fix 4: Reinstall Call of Duty

None of the above methods managed to work in your favor, then reinstalling the game is the only option left. There’s two way of doing. Either you could head 0ver to Control Panel > program and Features > Select the game > Uninstall. The next method involves the Battle.Net client.

How To Fix Game Crashes On Mac

Launch the Client, select the Call of Duty game and then click on Options from the right-hand side. From the drop-down menu that appears, click on Uninstall (see above screenshot). Likewise, also make sure that you don’t have any game files remaining in the Documents or Program Files folder. If that is there, delete it right away. Once you have completely removed the game, reinstall it on your PC. Then launch it and the Call of Duty crashing after match error should be fixed.

Conclusion

So with this, we conclude the guide on how to fix crashing issues on Call of Duty Modern Warfare or Warzone. Any of the above four fixes should work out in your case. Do let us through which method you rectified the issue. On that note, here are some iPhone Tips and Tricks, PC tips and tricks, and Android Tips and Trick that you should check out as well.

In the patch 8.3 known issues post, there’s a section that sounds like a simple performance problem, but it’s a bigger bug than that. And despite how often we joke about problems that make the game “unplayable,” this one really does make WoW pretty unplayable — at least for a certain subset of Mac players with Intel graphics cards.

Performance issues on Macs
We are seeing reports, from users on various Mac systems, of various performance issues including freezing/stuttering or locking up while playing. Our Technical Support team has been collecting details for the development team in our Mac Technical Support forums: Crashing, freezing, and stuttering after 8.3

That simple description doesn’t do the problem justice. Since patch 8.3 rolled out a number of Mac users have experienced freezes, client crashes, and computer crashes, including kernel panics. These crashes occur frequently, no matter what you’re doing in game. Sometimes you’ll get 20 seconds of gameplay in and sometimes you’ll get 20 minutes of gameplay in, but the end result is the same: your client crashes and you log back on to find your character is now a corpse.

Many players (myself included) are almost entirely locked out of group content, which really doesn’t work in a massively multiplayer game. Since patch 8.3 launched, I haven’t been able to successfully run a dungeon or a raid, and I haven’t completed a single Horrific Vision. And based on reports in the forum thread on the issue, I’ve been lucky to even get solo questing done.

And two weeks after patch 8.3 rolled out, there’s still no fix on the horizon.

When we got the initial report of this bug, we had our Quality Assurance folks look into it, and they helped us find some scenarios where the crashes happened. That was what we tried to fix with the hotfix we mentioned above. Unfortunately, the problem was deeper than what we initially had identified. On behalf of all of us at Blizzard I wanted to apologize that we set kind of a bad expectation earlier in the thread. We thought we fixed the problem, we were wrong, and so we went back to the drawing board.

Without going into the complete technical details, we’ve spent more time reproducing things with Quality Assurance, found more problems, and tried more code tweaks to fix the things we’ve found since the initial hotfix attempts. None of our tweaks, however, have been successful enough (as indicated by the thread) which is why we aren’t out here telling you to re test things right now. If we had more good news to share, we would, but the best we can really tell you is that we have people actively trying to unravel this complicated thread.

It’s good to know that Blizzard hasn’t forgotten this problem — and it’s nice to get an apology for the poor communication surrounding this bug — but it would be better to know Blizzard was going to fix the problem. Instead, they’ve offered one workaround, which is what you’ll hear from GMs if you submit a ticket: install Windows on your Mac using Boot Camp.

This isn’t quite as intimidating as it sounds. Boot Camp is built into MacOS and it handles all the work of setting up a dual boot partition and making sure Windows understands your Mac hardware. You can download Windows 10 Home edition for free from Microsoft, so there’s no cost to the project — but you do need a fair chunk of free hard drive space to make it work. Running in Windows seems to work just fine, as long as you have the time, technical know-how, and hardware to set it up.

But “Mac users should install Windows” is a lousy bug fix. It’s such a lousy bug fix that it sounds like it was written by an internet troll, telling Mac users that if they wanted to be “real” gamers they would have a Windows PC.

We’re not hearing this from internet trolls. Instead, we’re being hearing it from a multi-billion dollar corporation which sold us a game that officially supports MacOS. It’s a hard sell to long-time Mac users — I’ve been playing WoW on Mac for a good 15 years — who have been cut off from the game since patch 8.3 landed.

So what’s a Mac owner to do? As I said, you can install Windows if you have the time (and hard drive space). But just as importantly, you can report the problems you’re having to Blizzard. This bug seems like a particularly tough one to track down, and more reports with specific details about what you were doing when your client crashed could help the devs pinpoint the problem. If you’re a Mac player with an Intel graphics card experiencing crashes, go to this forum thread and report the problem with as much detail as possible. It probably won’t get us an immediate fix, but it can’t hurt.

What you shouldn’t do is abuse the Blizzard staff over this problem. They want this fixed as much as you do, and yelling at them won’t get it done any faster.
