If your Warzone 2 friends list is not working you’re just one of many players this social tab bug is troubling. The glitch occurs when the social menu causes you to go back to the main menu, which prevents you from inviting your friends to a party. Both Warzone 2.0 and Modern Warfare 2 are experiencing this issue, likely caused by the latest Call of Duty update. Luckily, several users have already found a nifty workaround so that players can group up and invite their friends without needing the game’s friends list at all.
