The change in scenery appears to have done wonders forCall of Duty: WW2, as the game has already vaulted over the week one sales for last year’s game and taken in over$500 million dollars in its first weekend. Even after such a hot start, the game does have a number of nagging issues that need to be ironed out, with the biggest arguably revolving around online connectivity. After a week of availability, Sledgehammer Games has finally released its first update on consoles for the popular shooter.

As expected, the first patch forCall of Duty: WW2delivers a couple nerfs to the game. Players have found that using the Espionage Basic Training Skill was a fast and easy way to accumulate points in a match as simply damaging an enemy highlighted them for 10 seconds on the minimap for their team. The patch reduces that number to six seconds and will only highlight an enemy that is damaged by bullets.

A number of weapons have also been altered by this update as well.Top tier weapons like the BAR, FG42 rifle, and STG44 have all been nerfed in order to bring them back in line with the other available weapons. The Walther Toggle Action had its damage output increased, and the Bren LMG also had its damage increased per shot.

Other changes in update 1.05 bring a number of fixes to the online connectivity and server optimization, which isan issue that has plagued the game since launch, even forcing the developer to limit the number of people joining the Headquarters social space. Loading screen related problems such as the infinite loading screen glitch have also been addressed, and Sledgehammer has even optimized the process which should make the experience a little smoother overall.
