How to fix timed out waiting for datacenter error in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2?
While players might feel they need to reinstall the game, we recommend holding it off as a last resort, as you may fix minor errors without reinstalling. The “Timed out Waiting for Datacenters” issue occurs when your game is initially loading up. Do not cancel or switch off the game while this process completes. Switch off the game if you are getting stuck on the same screen. Visit the game page on the console, Steam, or Battle.net.

However, the same might not happen for you as it depends on variables like server location, internet connectivity, speed, device build, corrupted files, etc. This error usually happens when the servers have too many people logging in simultaneously, or the game files are not in sync.
