Call of Duty

The Call of Duty social media account on Twitter published a statement Thursday and acknowledged that developers are working to update Call of Duty: Vanguard, as well as the Call of Duty: Warzone battle royale mode.

Some players have encountered various glitches and bugs in the new Warzone mode. These include Operator skins that make players invisible. 

Other issues have included poor game performance on consoles and freezes while attempting to access the in-game buy stations.

Call of Duty has a name in the game world

Call of Duty is one of the best-selling video games franchises of all time, and with good reason. Each new installment brings something new to the table, whether it’s the ability to fight in space or the chance to battle zombies in World War II.

The gameplay is always top-notch and the graphics are fantastic, so you know that you’re getting a quality product every time you buy a Call of Duty title. 

Not only that, but Call of Duty has also spawned an entire sub-genre of gaming, in which players compete against each other online in team matches. 

These games are called first-person shooters (FPS) because they are played from the perspective of the player’s character.

New fixes on Call of Duty

Things have not been rosy for a while now as, Call of Duty fans are experiencing various multiplayer connection difficulties, including disconnects from matches and unexpected party disbandments. 

Call of Duty fans who play Zombies mode have also been outraged at the lack of a pause option while playing solo or private matches.

The option, which had been available in the previous Call of Duty titles, allows Zombies players to adjust their tactics and figure out how to deal with the hordes of enemies rampaging towards them.

Fixes released with recent patches include collision issues and weapon balancing for Warzone, as well as stability improvements, weapon balancing, and improved spawn logic for Vanguard. 

Fans on the other hand were quite outraged but understandably so.
