Warzone Update 1.31 from February 5th – The patch notes say
This is how the playlist changes in the Battle Royale:
- For the Battle Royale on the Verdansk map, Panzer Royale is coming
- For Plunder, the Quads format is coming, Cash: Blood Money Trios will be removed
- For Rebirth Island, Resurgence Trios remains
General changes:
- A new fix against the infinite Stim glitch. The issue has returned 5 times already and allowed players to survive in gas by abusing Stims. For many, this will likely be the most important change in the new updates.
- The match bonus and kill XP reward in Kingslayer mode have been adjusted
Weapons:
- The timing for replenishing ammunition on an “Empty Reload” has been adjusted for weapons from Black Ops Cold War. This should finally fix the reloading issue where, for example, sprinting at the end of the animation would completely break the reload.
Operators:
- Some operator missions for Stitch (new since season 1) should now grant correct progress
Gunsmith:
- The visual display for the “Heavy Handed” sledgehammer in the loadout menu has been fixed
Quarters:
- A problem was fixed that displayed a different progress status for the next level in the quarters for higher prestige levels than what was shown in the upper banner in the main menu of the game.
Store:
- Tier skips were removed from “Modern Warfare” bundles
- The preview of the watch from the “Hot Shot” bundle now displays the correct time
- Some minor issues with images, icons, or names have been fixed
More bug fixes:
- A crash on game startup caused by changes in Windows GDI32 has been fixed
What do you think of the changes? Do you believe the developers will finally manage to eradicate the Stim glitch completely this time?
