Warzone December 10 Update Patch Notes

General

Reduced the volume of aerial gameplay elements such as Fighter Planes, Bombing Runs, and Airstrike Killstreaks.

Gameplay

Fighter Planes are no longer able to auto-target parachuting Players.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where Vanguard Operators Levels would begin at 0 instead of 1.
Fixed an issue causing Players to be kicked for inactivity while using the static Anti-Aircraft Gun.
Fixed an issue causing Players bought back by teammates to return without access to Weapons or their fists.

Weapons

General

The M1928 (VG), also known as Submachine Gun Alpha (VG), has been changed to M1912 (VG)

Weapon Adjustments

With this update, we have drastically reduced the amount of ‘Bloom’ on all base Vanguard Weapons. In the future, we will be removing Bloom from Vanguard Weapons entirely. This process will take time, as we will need to determine adequate downsides to counterbalance the removal of Bloom, which will vary based on each individual Weapon and the type of Attachment they are attributed to.

In addition, we are in the process of assessing Weapon ADS Speeds across Warzone. Stay tuned for more information.
