Call of Duty news: Advanced Warfare update for Zombies mode and crazy new content added

Call of Duty fans playing Advanced Warfare are getting new supply drop content

CALL of Duty news this week includes Advanced Warfare's latest update that brings changes to Zombies mode and some rather unusual new content for fans.

 

Advanced Warfare is getting a new patch that will help bring fixes for a range of COD game features, including the popular undead spinoff.

Exo Zombies Updates revealed by developers Sledgehammer Games (fixes):

• Weapon upgrade cost shown wasn't being subtracted correction in Double Feature mode on the Descent Exo-Zombies map.
• The music when attempting the Easter Egg on the Descent Exo-Zombies map was not present.
• Map exploits where players could remain in place and not be attacked by zombies on the Descent Exo-Zombies map.

Other game modes, map exploits and scoresheet updates have also been added and can be found here for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

 

Advanced Warfare's Exo Zombies sees new fixes deployed today

Fans on last-gen consoles will have to wait longer for their own platform fixes.

Today also saw the release of the new M1911 & MP40 weapons in Supply Drops and Advanced Supply Drop on Xbox One.

Coming later to PS4 and PC, Sledgehammer decided to go back to the roots of the Call of Duty series to introduce the new secondary pistol as well as the returning SMG.

 

Advanced Warfare fans should also be on the lookout for the new Legendary gear that has been added to the game, including five new sets.

Want to look like you're fresh out of a shark tank? The Combat Diver has you covered, you can also check out the Bomber, Bank Heist and Pilot gear that has been included with a steampunk inspired 'Proton' suit.

Sledgehammer say they're committed to providing fans with new content like this well into the future but have drawn the line at providing it for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Explaining why it isn't possible to continue supporting the last-gen devices, studio head Michael Condrey explained: "We have hit a hard memory limit on last generation consoles. This memory limit prevents us from adding more weapons to those platforms.

"We don’t like it any more than you, because we care about Advanced Warfare players on all platforms, but it's a limitation that is outside of our control.

"People far smarter than I spend a lot of energy trying to solve this hard development limit, and we simply can’t deliver new content at the rate we’re currently producing it for next generation devices (Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC)."
