Call of Duty Warzone’s latest update fixes several significant bugs and exploits

Infinity Ward has confirmed its delayed Call of Duty Warzone and Modern Warfare update has been released across all platforms.

As well as adding new weapons and a character to Warzone, additional changes have been confirmed including the resolution of several significant bugs and exploits.

Firstly, players who disconnect while downed in Last Stand will now drop their items and reward their opponent with a kill. Previously, defeated players could disconnect to deprive their enemy of any reward.

Infinity Ward has also solved a bug which caused many players to fall to their death when trying to parachute as their gas mask was equipped or unequipped (see the video below).

The price of Loadout Drops from Buy Stations has been increased to $8,500.

In another significant change, close up shotgun damage has been changed to prevent a single blast downing a fully armored player. The Stopping Power perk can still make this happen.

Finally, the Plunder: Blood Money game variant has been added, in which players receive guaranteed cash drops on kills, and Bounty Contracts and Finishing Moves pay extra.

See the full list of Warzone changes below and head over to the Infinity Ward website for the Modern Warfare notes.
