Call of Duty: World at War gets new title update, Makin Day map

Having fun rocket jumping in Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, PC)? I hope you’ve had enough time to enjoy it, because Treyarch has rolled out a CoD:WaW patch that gets rid of rocket jumping. The unlimited ammo bipod trick? That’s gone too. The patch doesn’t just get rid of glitches and exploits, however. It also adds support for downloadable maps to usher in the launch of the Makin Day map. Changelogs for the PS3 and Xbox 360 title updates are after the jump.

Having fun rocket jumping in Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, PC)? I hope you’ve had enough time to enjoy it, because Treyarch has rolled out a new CoD:WaW title update that gets rid of rocket jumping. The unlimited ammo bipod trick? That’s gone too.

The patch, which is now live, doesn’t just get rid of glitches and exploits. It also adds support for downloadable maps to usher in the launch of the Makin Day map. Nazi Zombies has also been unlocked for solo & co-op games for everyone in both private and public games.

If you’re a PS3 player, you’ll get the Makin Day map once you patch your game. Xbox 360 players can get their copy from the Marketplace once they update. The changelog for the PS3 patch is below. The Xbox 360 patch is detailed after that. They’re essentially the same save for the matchmaking and Action Report fixes.

PS3 patch changelog:

• 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.”
• 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.
