Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Patch Brings Major Changes to Multiplayer

January 28, 2015 by Jacob Saylor

System Hack has been nerfed.

Advanced Warfare showed us all that the Call of Duty franchise is here to stay. There were a lot of critics who said that the series was dying, but just as Warfare released, they were all quieted. Advanced Warfare brought some major changes to the franchise, and scored extremely well with games media and consumers alike.

One reason Advanced Warfare remains so popular is Sledgehammer Games' continued support for the title. They've been rigorous with their balancing of the game, and have offered tons of post-launch fixes. The latest patch continues that legacy, and makes some big changes to the game's multiplayer.

Have a look at the patch, which is already out on Xbox One; it should be available on PS4 and PC later this week:

Weapon Balancing Updates

  • HBRa3: max damage range increased
  • AE4: reduce recoil, increase number of shots before overheating
  • EPM3: reduce recoil
  • Tac-19: max damage range increased, reduced spread when using Gung-Ho

  • Adjusted the score value the System Hack Scorestreak

  • Fixed a rare issue where a player could become “invisible” when calling in a Scorestreak
  • Fixed a rare issue where a players HUD would become blurry when using a co-op Scorestreak

Game Mode Specific Updates

  • Adjusted various spawning logic for Capture the Flag game mode
  • Adjusted various spawning logic for Momentum game mode
  • Fixed issue where the CTF flag was unresponsive to players that were on top of the flag when it spawned
  • Fixed an issue with the CTF flag not returning if a player was standing on top of the spawn point
  • Addressed rare issue where CTF flag was not being returned immediately
  • Fixed issues with planting the bomb after attempting to swap weapons in Search and Destroy
