World at War receives free 'Makin Day' DLC, gets patched

[Nemesis]

Available today, courtesy of developer Treyarch, is a new patch for Call of Duty: World at War as well as a free multiplayer map. The map isn't exactly new, but could be especially satisfying for soldiers who prefer battling without the cover of night.

 

The new "Makin Day" map is a remake of current World at War offering Makin, with a generous splash of the sun's daylight glow. The map is installed automatically with the PlayStation 3 version of the patch and Xbox 360 users can grab the free content via the Xbox Live Marketplace. Speaking of the patch, a list of platform-specific updates (Xbox 360 / PS3) can be viewed on the official World at War forums. We're sure "Rocket Jumpers" will be none too pleased to discover their special ability has been taken away.

 

 

Addressed in this Update:

 

Added support for downloadable maps – free downloadable map “Makin Day†now available to Xbox 360 & PS3.

Improved host migration functionality.

After Action Report now displays full post-game stats.

Nazi Zombies is now unlocked for solo & co-op games for EVERYONE in both private and public games!

Added defensive measures to prevent “Stats Reset†when corrupt data is detected.

Addressed issues where some solo progression data was lost when a player had collected Death Cards in a split-screen co-op game.

Patched all known MP map exploits – this fix will also prevent players from passing through geometry/terrain if a new hole is discovered.

Patched a number of Nazi Zombie exploits.

Addressed an issue commonly referred to as the “elevator glitch.â€

Disabled “Rocket Jumping†– this eliminates the extra boost created by all explosive weapon types.

Addressed some score reporting anomalies in the War and CTF leaderboards.

Blocked the ability of players with lower level accounts from accessing higher-level Perks.

Addressed an issue in Search & Destroy where bomb planting/defusing was disabled when opening the overhead map.

Disabled ability to get unlimited ammo when prone with a deployed bipod.

Addressed an issue with Bouncing Betties triggering when the player is within the detonation radius but behind a solid wall.

Improved squad functionality.

Fixed an exploit where Hardcore matches could be ended immediately by team killing.

 

We hope you enjoy the new updates, and the new map - will see you on the battlefield!

nice, that is just going to stop people from hiding and camping in the water.

I've been playing this all day on 360.. it's not stopping the camping. People are just hiding under the platforms now.

[sharkbait2]

well, the water is shallow now... it comes up to your ankles

[Playerdown]

Wow, they fixed almost everything that was wrong. I just hope the host migration works like it should, "Instantly", not starting over. I wish they would fix the re-spawn locations too.

[IRISH BULL]

OMFG! Does every online game now a days make Slant 6 look like total asswipes. I mean, jeez-us-christ on a cracker!!!!

 

If it wasn't for my clan still grasping onto SOCOM, I'd be done completely.

Anyone else think the new Makin is too bright?

[Xx-CHURCHY-xX]

well, the tide is out and the sun is high.. it IS a village right off the water in Japan.. I don't think its too bright. I think it's perfectly fine, just have to get used to the new changes in the maps like the new tin and wooden boards and stuff that now block my way
