How to fix servers under temporary maintenance in Modern Warfare 2

The servers must be fixed!

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 provides a sequel to the thrilling first-person shooter by developer Infinity Ward. With many new features and continuous updates to keep up with player feedback and bug fixes, the game servers will sometimes undergo temporary maintenance. This maintenance never happens randomly, as the development team will usually announce a few days before, both in-game and on social media, that the servers will be unavailable for a short period of time.

The only way to fix this issue and get back into the game is to wait out the maintenance until it's been completed. In most cases, you will still be able to enter the game, but you'll be asked to wait in a queue while the maintenance plays out. The length of time for these maintenance periods also varies depending on what needs to be done to the server. The extent of what needs to be updated or fixed might be longer or shorter than a few hours, depending. Once completed, you can return to climbing the ranks or even check out the new third-person mode.
