    Treyarch's List of Known Issues for CoD:WaW

    Treyarch's community manager, Josh, has made two posts concerning known problems with CoD:WW. The first post describes a list of issues most are familiar with along with a second post from Josh which is geared specifically towards the PC.
    Hi everyone,

    I just wanted to keep you all in the loop with some of the most pertinent issues we’re actively investigating / working on. This is a far cry from the full list; it’s just the most frequently reported issues.

    * Loss of rank / save game files
    * Under map glitches (all that have been found so far).
    * Spawn system logic
    * Bayonet jumping
    * “Elevator” glitch
    * Deployable MG unlimited ammo glitch
    * Zombie glitching

    Please continue providing constructive feedback as it’s very useful in designing our hotfixes & Title Updates. Unfortunately, we cannot post an ETA on any of these fixes just yet – certain issues are able to be addressed in a Hotfix, while others require a full Title Update game patch. Both of these procedures require extensive time to address the issue and test the game thoroughly before they go live. As soon as we have more information, an update will be posted to this thread.

    Something to note: before you report a bug, please search the forums to see if it has already been reported. While we cannot respond to every post, we read the majority of them – so to avoid forum spam and duplicate topics, just search before posting.

    To the same effect, please do not get upset if we do not respond to your thread. There are just too many posts to respond to all of them; it doesn’t mean we don’t appreciate your feedback or read it, because we do.

    Regards,
    -JD


    ---A post geared towards PC specifically:---
    Hey PC crowd -

    If you haven't already, please read this thread:



    In addition to that list, which applies to multiple platforms, there are some PC-specific items that we're investigating. Please find some of them below:

    * HTTP Redirect
    * /record functionality
    * Server stability
    * Cg_drawfps
    * Server Authentication errors
    * "Power server" exploits
    * Mod Tools, MP prefabs
    * Mod Tools, Zombie sounds effects

    As with the original post, that is not a comprehensive list. Also, this is NOT a list of fixes slated for Patch 1.2. This is merely a list of what we're working on, some of which may make 1.2, some of which may not.

    Please also bear in mind that as the original post stated, the same difficulties in providing ETA's apply to PC patches as well.

    Regards,
    -JD

    Glad the problems are being recognized. Now, how about some fixes? How many of you have encountered these issues or been annoyed by them? Let us know!

    Thanks to FPSadmin for the heads up on the news.

    Looks like they have the biggest issues, but I don't think they will release it fast enough to bring back lost players (like myself). I gave the game a chance, but it just couldn't compete with CoD4 (IMO). I think they should have put it through some more thorough testing to discover the bugs (map glitches/ammo/blue screen/no record or fps/etc.) before the release.

      I would imagine they hope to have 1.2 out before January 31st with an announcement during the first week of the new year. Longer than that and they will be shooting themselves in the foot as in my mind COD:WAW is miles better than their last cod game.

        Yeap looks like its getting towards the too late time frame.

        The game is so similar to COD4, the only interest to me was Nazi co op and that is waning.

          i personally like this game. I'm getting kinda sick and tired of hearing (o this is not like cod4) yeah its not cause its a different game. The game is quite fun and plays just like cod4. I love the online gameplay its very addicting.

          as for the patch, i wish that not being able to alt tab would be fix. im getting sick of alt tabbing then the game crashing on return.


          also i have no idea how this happened but i never played cod4 in a LONG time. probably a few months but a few days ago i was going to jump online just for the heck of it and i lost my rank and stats on cod4. (VERY VERY PISSED i had gold ak and i worked long and hard for it)

          I dont know if it was cause by cod waw or not but i have no problems with saved games/rank on cod waw but i guess i have a problem with (just rank) on cod 4

          o well.

            Had you done a reformat since then? Did you back up your mpdata file?

            I also enjoy this game a lot.

              * /record functionality
              I like this game in MP, but they better put this back in the (CoD4)engine in the next patch or they lose ALL goodwill from me.
              Why the hell did they take it out in the first place? It was working perfect in CoD4, makes no sense to not include it in this game.
              Unless they don't think the PC-players money is as good as console-players money?

                It's likely just a bug - they broke the functionality somehow, and it either was missed in testing, or they didn't have time to fix it before release.

                  yeah i have the player folder backed up for cod4 im not sure if i have my gold ak backed up but at least i have my rank 55 so i have my gun unlocks.

                  i let my computer get heavily fragmented then i decided to de frag it and i think that was what cause it.

                  im about to do a fresh install of windows soon cause my computer is getting bog down from random ****.



                  yeah i love this game. idk if i just got sick of play cod4 ( had like 7 days of play on it) but i like it. i love using the bolt actions :)

                    That is the main reason this game is floating my boat! In all of the MoH/CoD games, I always used the rifle/sniper, but mainly the bolt action rifle. Then, CoD4...well, I could use the G3, but it wasn't the same. I tried using the snipers, but a lot of the maps are small and it's just not the same as a bolt.

                    I also like the carnage in this game, I hope it continues in the CoD series as it definitely adds to the gameplay compared to the repetitive 'death animations' along with the puffs of white smoke.

                      My guess is that they forgot to change a value from cod4 to world at war regarding /record.

                      The fact that it's taking this long to implement a /record feature killed the competitive scene in this game (among other issues). It was dead before it even hit the ground

                        Aw...I love the elevator glitch. Way not to point out that you /failed at making a Call of Duty game.

                          You can download a level 55 profile off the internet you know....

                          Hey Treyarch/IW, if you care about powerlevel servers or people downloading max rank profiles, quit making the stats client-side!

                            Im probably not allowed to ask but what exactly did it mean by this?

                            Also, bayonet jumping??

                            I havent played for a week and already i have missed so much :dead:

                              The spawn points need to be fixed big time...I am getting extremely annoyed at being killed immediately after spawn.
