Treyarch’s community manager JD_2020 has revealed that a new Call of Duty: World at War patch will be released next week.
The new patch (1.6) will add maps as well as other features and fixes when released in a week’s time.
Among the maps, a new “Nazi Zombie map” is included, called Der Riese. The map is set “in a secret Nazi research facility featuring the Pack A Punch Machine, Teleporters, and many more undead hordes!”
It seems to be a more comprehensive than the last patch. The full patch notes follow:New Multiplayer maps: Battery (mp_drum), Breach (mp_bgate), Revolution (mp_vodka)!New Nazi Zombie map: Der Riese (nazi_zombie_factory), an all-new Zombie map set in a secret Nazi research facility featuring the Pack A Punch Machine, Teleporters, and many more undead hordes!Exploits pertaining to Demo playback.Favorites list now ignores filter settings.Fixed S&D round counting error when roundlimit is reached.New feature: in-game Add to Favorites.Friends list: green online indicator.Starting the game in Safe Mode will no longer toggle the “Soften Smoke Edges” graphic option.Fixed various crashes.Mods: Client will no longer join a modded Co-op server via Game Invite unless they have that mod loaded.Mods: Client running a mod will be asked to unload the mod if they attempt to join an unmodded server.Mods: All singleplayer levels can now be run with a mod loaded.JD_2020 also mentioned the team “expect[s] a concurrent release of the Mod Tools 1.4 package, Linux dedicated 1.6 bins, and the Steam 1.6 day-of-date with this patch.”Call of Duty: World at War was released at the end of last year and focused on the Pacific conflict in WWII. The Nazi Zombie mode was a surprise hit, but to get a feel of the main campaign, we suggest you read our review.
