Call of Duty: Warzone’s latest update is live, and the February 24 patch notes reveal several bug fixes for the battle royale. Major changes include a fix for freezing issues, and the PPSh-41 submachine gun should no longer be an overpowered menace.
This new update addresses a lot of problems in Warzone, which includes a major freezing issue that caused players to temporarily freeze during the early stages of a match. The update also adds a fix for a bug that allowed infinite rounds of the Nebula V ammo type to be applied to primary weapons.
Another major change comes in the form of weapon balancing. Warzone players should no longer be getting melted by the PPSh-41 submachine gun. According to Raven Software’s patch notes, the PPSh-41 should be properly balanced now. The fix comes after a change in the previous update for Season 2’s launch caused the weapon to have damage values that were higher than intended.
On the smaller side of the update, fixes arrive for a bug that caused certain weapon camos to unequip from the gun when backing out of the weapons tab of the game’s main menu. The patch notes also address an issue causing visual inconsistencies with some dynamic weapon icons, and bugs were squashed that caused placeholder descriptions to appear in various store bundles and challenges.
The full patch notes can be found below, as shared by Raven Software.
