Warzone camos not tracking? What's fixed and what's still broken
By TourneyTime ·
The short answer
Camo grinding came to Warzone with Modern Warfare 4 Season 1, and so did a few bugs. Here’s where things stand as of 12 November, straight from Raven’s Warzone Season 1 patch notes:
| Problem | Status |
|---|---|
| Platinum camo challenges not tracking on the Cronen Osprey and CSG-35 | Fixed (10 November update) |
| Pre-order weapon camos can’t be equipped in Warzone | Fixed (11 November update) |
| Marksman Rifle Platinum progress doesn’t display correctly, so the camo shows as locked | Known issue, under investigation |
| Legacy weapons won’t take MW4 Mastery Camos | Not a bug: Legacy weapons don’t support them |
If one of the fixed problems is still biting, restart the game so you’re on the latest update. Then check again.
What was fixed
Cronen Osprey and CSG-35 Platinum. The 10 November update fixed an issue where Platinum camouflage challenges weren’t tracking for these two guns. If your Platinum grind on either one seemed to stall before then, that was the bug, not you. We covered the rest of that update in our 10 November update breakdown.
Pre-order camos. The 11 November update fixed an issue where players couldn’t equip pre-order weapon camos in Warzone. Lovely stuff: they now work. The full rundown of that patch, including the big hitscan change, is in our 11 November update breakdown.
What’s still broken
Raven’s known-issues list says Platinum camo progression for Marksman Rifles doesn’t display correctly in the menus, which makes the camo show as locked. Raven calls it a display problem. It is under investigation and has no fix date yet. The independent camo-tracking guide at timesaver.gg lists the same issue.
We’ll update this page when the fix lands. Until then, if your Marksman Rifle Platinum looks stuck, it’s very likely this bug.
Not a bug: Legacy weapons
This one catches a lot of people out. The Season 1 notes say Legacy weapons don’t support Modern Warfare 4 Mastery Camos, Reticle Challenges, Cosmetic Gunsmithing or Build Sharing. Your older guns are fixed preset builds, so only Modern Warfare 4 weapons count towards the camo grind.
Your old camos from Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, Black Ops 6 and Black Ops 7 didn’t carry over either. Our Carry Forward explainer covers that.
How the Warzone camo grind works now
A quick refresher from the Season 1 notes, so you can tell a bug from the rules:
- Camo unlocks are shared between Warzone and every other mode.
- Special and Completionist camos have Warzone-specific targets and criteria, but you can also progress DMZ and Multiplayer camo challenges in Warzone.
- Finish the Completionist camos on all 33 weapons and you unlock the Warzone Mode Mastery challenges. Those can only be progressed in Warzone.
