Modern Warfare 2 & Warzone 2 March 2 update patch notes: Bug fixes, AI changes, more

A Warzone 2 and MW2 update arrived on March 2 and it delivered several bug fixes as well as minor changes to AI across the battle royale. Let’s take a look at the patch notes below.

Warzone 2 Season 2 delivered plenty of content to the battle royale, including a brand-new Resurgence map to explore. While players have been enjoying Ashika Island for its fast gameplay and close-range gunfights, they can’t help but feel that enemy AI is ruining the map.

Thankfully, the Warzone 2 devs are still looking to improve the state of the game prior to the Season 2 Reloaded update.

On March 2 a Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 update brought several bug fixes and minor changes to the games, so here are the full patch notes.

Warzone 2 devs finally nerf AI

The Warzone 2 devs are taking steps to scale back the difficulty of AI combatants on Ashika Island and Al Mazrah. Players have expressed their frustration with the impossible difficulty of facing AI on either map.

Luckily the devs included various changes to AI in the March 2 update, including the reduction of AI reinforcements during the Data Heist Contract on Ashika Island. On March 1, they also detailed a nerf to enemy DMZ AI.
