Now Playing: Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 - "Plunder Is Back !" Gameplay Trailer
Several bugs were squashed across both games, including Warzone 2's major Resupply exploit, which previously allowed players to generate lethal equipment at a much higher rate by repeatedly equipping perk packages.
This update also provided fixes for Warzone 2's Ranked Play mode. These changes address an issue that previously caused eliminated squad members to receive SR for unassisted enemy eliminations by live squad members, and another that prevented assists from tracking properly on the in-game scoreboard. Additionally, inactive players will no longer remain in Ranked Play matches.
Additional bug fixes for both games include one that previously caused players to be incorrectly removed from matches for inactivity. The update also addressed an issue causing players to remain stuck on "Fetching Online Profile" when attempting to inspect their social notifications.
The full patch notes can be found below, as shared by Activision.
Season 3 Reloaded recently added a multiplayer map, a new DMZ location, a Kevin Durant operator bundle, and more. Streamers NickMercs and TimTheTatman also have their own Call of Duty operator bundles arriving later this month.
