One of the most annoying things ever is when you finally get some time away from work, school, and other responsibilities to relax and play some Call of Duty, only to find an error code is in your way. Such is the case with the relatively common Modern Warfare 3Ā and WarzoneĀ error code 112, which can ruin a great multiplayer session.
MW3Ā and WarzoneĀ error code 112, explained
In general, the MW3Ā and WarzoneĀ error code 112 pops up when you boot up one of these games and try to connect to the online servers. There is occasionally the possibility you might get this error code after a match when you return to the lobby, but that isnāt as common.
When you get this error code, it is generally accompanied by a message like the following:
- Unable to connect online due to network connectivity issues.
The message itself makes it clear that there is something wrong with your ability to connect to Activisionās online servers, but it doesnāt quite specify whatās causing it. There are a couple of possible explanations for this, the first being that itās on your end.
There could be an issue with your internet, PC, or console that is preventing you from connecting properly online. On the other hand, though, it could be an issue with Activisionās own servers that arenāt working properly at that time.
Regardless, this error code essentially means that you arenāt able to play online in either Modern Warfare 3Ā or Warzone.Ā
How to fix error code 112 in MW3Ā and WarzoneĀ
If you run into the unfortunate error code 112 in MW3 and Warzone, there are only a few different methods you can try to help with it. First and foremost, it is essential that you narrow down what the problem is here. Is it an issue on your end or Activisionās?
To do that, I always suggest restarting your PC or console and also the game. While you do that, it is best to check out Down Detector and the official CoD UpdatesĀ Twitter to see if there is an official announcement about an issue or other players struggle to connect online.
If you still arenāt able to connect online, it might be worth restarting your internet and then testing other online games on the same platform to see if they work. If everything checks out there, it is likely Ā an issue on Activisionās end.
In this case, your best bet is to take a screenshot of the error, give a detailed description of how your internet works for other games, and submit a ticket to Activision Support. Itās possible that server hiccups or even unexpected maintenance could be the problem.
If the issue is out of your hands, unfortunately, youāll have to wait to get back online. Your best bet then is to play some Modern Warfare 3 offline or check out another game in the meantime.
