CoD:WaW Map Pack 1 and Title Update Tonight

At 8AM CST (9AM EST, 6AM PST) in the morning Treyarch’s Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 1 will be released along with a title update. With this new map pack for 800MS points, you get 3 new maps to play online with and 1 new map for Zombie mode.
The title update addresses the following issues:

  • All rifle grenades fired during the first 15 seconds of S&D will be duds to prevent griefing in that game mode.
  • Improvements have been made to the global spawn system – players should never spawn within the line of sight of an enemy.
  • Players who equip the Bouncing Betty and melee teammates in Hardcore game modes are now credited with a team kill penalty.
  • Players are now deducted 200 points for team killing the bomb planter/defuser in Hardcore S&D.
  • Martyrdom no longer causes “direct impact” grenade deaths in Hardcore modes.
  • Players ranked higher than the maximum allowed in the Boot Camp playlist are no longer able to play in games with lower ranked friends in that playlist.
  • “Bayonet jumping” has been disabled.
  • Further improvements have been made to geographical matchmaking.
  • The “New” icon clears when a player has viewed an unlocked weapon (X360 only).
  • Many zombies were raised from the dead.
