Sledgehammer Games hat kurz vor dem Wochenende ein neues Update für den Ego-Shooter Call of Duty: Vanguard veröffentlicht. Das dürfte vor allem diejenigen unter euch freuen, die Probleme mit den sogenannten Kaufrunden hatten beziehungsweise haben. Es konnte in der Vergangenheit passieren, dass ihr nach einer solchen Runde plötzlich ohne Zweitwaffe oder mit bloßen Fäusten ins Spielgeschehen einsteigt – eine mehr als ungemütliche Ausgangslage.
Des Weiteren haben sich die Entwickler die Spawn-Mechanik auf einigen Maps vorgenommen. Diesbezüglich sollten nach der Installation des Updates deutlich weniger Fehler und Probleme auftauchen. Es gab zuletzt mehrere Berichte, denen zufolge Spieler auf der Map „Desert Siege“ plötzlich direkt neben einem Gegner auftauchten. Dies soll künftig nicht mehr passieren.
