FULL STORY
======================================================================

Raven Software, the developers of the standalone Call of Duty battle royale 
Warzone , has apologized for the issues that many players have been 
experiencing after the arrival of the games most recent update. 

Titled Season 1 Reloaded , the update brings a whole host of new changes and 
perks to the popular free-to-play game. It also adds some new weapons, not to 
mention additional modes and quests for players to get to grips with. 
Unfortunately, some players have been experiencing some pretty significant 
problems since the update launched on January 17, 2024. 

This included a super frustrating bug that left players unable to get past 
the main menu. Things didnt seem to fare much better for those who managed to 
actually get into a match, however, as there were also plenty of graphical 
problems with the games environments, like unpleasant visual flickering when 
players tried to equip loadouts. 

Thankfully, the studio has stepped up to acknowledge these issues in a recent 
Twitter post that goes on to explain why some of the bugs occurred. Weve been 
laying the groundwork for the return of some fan-favorite features in 
upcoming seasons, which has required a degree of preemptive setup in our live 
environment, the post reads. 

Yesterdays update shipped with some of that work, and we unfortunately 
encountered a conflict between live player data and our servers. Our teams 
were made immediately aware of the issues and began investigating shortly 
after the update went live. We rallied studio teams from around the world to 
get these issues resolved as swiftly as possible. 

The post also offers an apology for the disruption and says that the studio 
holds itself to a high standard, and yesterdays issues did not align with 
that. You can read the full post below: We wanted to address the issues that

Although its obviously massively disappointing that a significant update has 
launched in such a sorry state, this level of transparency is greatly 
appreciated and sets a good precedent going forward.
