'Call of Duty: WWII' experiences several issues; COD points and PC patch delayed
Since its worldwide release earlier this month, "Call of Duty: WWII" has been selling like crazy around the clock. It already made $500 million in its opening weekend and is already the best-selling digital game on the PlayStation 4 in terms of day-one sales. However, a lot of players were frustrated that the game was not working as it was promised to be, but game developer Sledgehammer assured everyone that the game would be 100 percent fixed in no time.
There have been several technical issues since the launch, ranging from online connectivity issues, faulty Headquarters social space, and dedicated servers. Sledgehammer has already released a statement update about all the issues that need to be addressed and requests everyone to be patient in the meantime.
The technical issues have gotten so severe that the development team decided to delay the launch of the "Call of Duty Points" currency until Nov. 21. This means owners of the digital versions of the game will have to wait until the said date in order to receive their bonus 1,100 COD Points.
The multiplayer function has also been turned off for the meantime, and even the next patch for PC will have to be moved to a further date until all the necessary issues have been fixed. Still, with a number of problems "Call of Duty: WWII" currently has, their game sales has not been affected.
Right now, the whole team behind the game is working 24/7 to fix all the issues of the game. Their main priority is the online connectivity and the issue with dedicated servers, and according to their update: "P2P brings things like Host Migrations and other issues that make for inconsistent gameplay experiences. Our objective to return to dedicated servers is our highest priority."
Meanwhile, in concern with the dedicated servers, they explained: "We've begun to test dedicated servers today in the US. We'll watch this test closely, and once we analyze the results we'll look to expand."
