Raven Software just tweeted the new patch notes for an update going live today, May 27. Solo Warzone players can rejoice as the Cargo Truck respawning rate is reduced, a vehicle that was ruining the mode. The AMAX and the FARA are headed for nerfs too, but while they'll take a hit, it doesn't look strong enough to knock these rifles out of the meta.

Another week, another huge update. Such is the way of Warzone. That said, these look like good updates. And, the Cargo Truck nerf answers the cryptic riddle that Raven left fans last night with this tweet:

It must have read:

Cargo truck is in the meta Verdansk solos needs saving something must bee done soon

Either way, let's go ahead and get to those patch notes.

Gameplay

  • Cargo Truck spawn rates for Verdansk Solo BR mode have been reduced to 5 (static) from a range of 16 to 20. This change will take effect when the Playlist update goes live later today.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed additional map locations in Verdansk that allowed players to reach out-of-bounds areas.
  • Fixed additional collision issues with various elements across Verdansk allowing players to exploit/peek/shoot through them.
  • Fixed a bug where vehicles could down or kill squad mates.
  • Fixed an issue in Nakatomi Plaza where the vault access denied audio could be heard throughout the entire building.
  • Fixed a bug preventing the Ballistic Knife Camouflage skins from unlocking upon completing their respective requirements.
  • Fixed a bug where the Swat 5mw Laser Sight for Sniper Rifles was not displaying Aiming Stability as a pro.
