Modern Warfare 2 Beta Servers

Are the servers for Modern Warfare 2 down? We can report that the MW2 beta servers are down, as Infinity Ward is getting ready for the next round of access on all platforms.

During the beta weekend, you can, of course, check the Activision Online Services support page for changes every minute.

You are not the only one having the Modern Warfare 2 Detrick Guernsey problem. And you don’t need to worry about anything either.

Detrick Guernsey is Infinity Ward’s way of telling you that your “Connection Failed” to the MW2 open beta servers because they are “currently undergoing maintenance.”

How to download the Modern Warfare 2 open beta

You’ll need to pre-order Modern Warfare 2 if you want to play the test on Xbox Series X, Xbox One, or PC (via Battle Net or Steam Early Access) on September 22.

Once you have that figured out, you’ll be given a MW2 beta code that you’ll need to enter on the official Call of Duty website.

If you want to play the open test on September 24, which is open to everyone, even if you haven’t pre-ordered the game, just keep an eye on the Xbox and PlayStation storefronts for the launcher to go live.

Once that is ready, you can download it, and you’ll be all set.

Modern Warfare 2 open beta rewards

If you decide to take part in the upcoming Modern Warfare 2 open beta, there are prizes you can get.

Infinity Ward says that the MW2 open test will let you earn up to 10 in-game items, such as the “Collision Operator Skin,” “Frontal Impact Weapon Blueprint,” “Side Impact Weapon Blueprint,” and “many more rewards.”

Also, if you pre-ordered the Vault Edition of Modern Warfare 2, you can get early access to some of the bundle’s exclusive things, like the first-ever Weapon Vault, the FJX Cinder, and the Red Team 141 Operator Pack, which is available right away.
