How to fix Modern Warfare 2 error code Detrick Guernsey

First of all, Detrick Guernsey error cannot be fixed by ourselves as it is a server-side issue.

In case you aren't aware, the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 beta ended at 10am PT / 13:00 ET / 18:00 BST on Monday, September 26. Since the open beta is over, the MW2 beta servers are offline or undergoing maintenance, and hence you can't access them.

In other words, MW2 beta can no longer be played, so you can uninstall the client and wait for the game's full release or early access release. The Modern Warfare 2 release date is pretty darn close now, so you don't have to wait too long.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be released on October 28 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC (Battle.net and Steam). Those who preorder MW2 will be able to access the campaign early, beginning October 20.
