Outside of experiments like Heroes of the Storm, most of Blizzard's properties haven't rubbed shoulders with each other too often. While some developers and publishers cross everything over with merry abandon, like in the case of Sony with Astro **** or Fortnite with literally everyone, Blizzard has always tended to keep things in their own lanes. Until recently, that is, with a loosening of the bonds between properties. That's continuing now with Hearthstone, which is getting a brand new mini-set from the sci-fi universe of StarCraft.

In the wake of today's large 2.0 update for Warcraft III: Reforged, Blizzard has released the complete list of patch notes, revealing changes to everything from multiplayer to various bug fixes. The biggest highlight is a graphical update that adds HD versions of classic units, buildings, visual effects, environments, and icons.

Treyarch has published patch notes for Call of Duty: ****** Ops 6 and Warzone Season 1 ahead of its launch on PC and consoles tomorrow. Following a string of smaller updates delivered throughout the last few weeks, today’s patch notes tease an update that is (unsurprisingly) the biggest yet. It’s got everything from ******* balance adjustments to details on Warzone, and while most of the news focuses on changes to Multiplayer and Zombies, the team made sure to iron out some Campaign wrinkles, too. There’s a laundry list of fixes for players of every shape and size, including those worried about players who want to cheat their way to the top. One specific area Treyarch took aim at with its ****** Ops 6 Season 1 update revolves around what it calls “disruptive behavior.” The team has adjusted ping thresholds to tackle VPN ****** and enhanced AFK detection in hopes of extinguishing boosting in lobbies. These are changes that should help ward off the use of popular exploits like **** lobbies, with additional tweaks to the anti-cheat measures sure to come as more updates arrive. Players will also be required to win 50 match-made Multiplayer matches before they’re allowed to ***** into Ranked mode. It's all about making every aspect of the ****** Ops 6 experience authentic, so it’s not shocking to see a bevy of ******* tweaks coming to Multiplayer in Season 1, too. While ******** rifles like the XM4, GPR 91, and AMES 85 received general damage buffs across the board, their headshot multipliers have also been reduced. Shotguns users were handed some changes, too, including increased damage multipliers and even more general damage improvements for the Marine SP and ASG-89. Omnimovement comes to Warzone ****** Ops 6 Season 1 alone comes with a long list of additions that will surely only change more as more content rolls out. Warzone, meanwhile, is an entirely different ******, but the team as Raven Software made sure to go over all of the details in its own post on the Call of Duty website. While things like Area 99 and omnimovement are sure to give fans of the long-running battle royale mode an entirely new hill to climb, there are plenty of other smaller changes here to help iron out the mode, too. Those same Ricochet anti-cheat measures from Multiplayer will be carried into Warzone, for example. Warzone UI is also getting a massive facelift, which includes a legacy tab for previously unlocked Modern Warfare 2 and 3 customization options, an option to change your mini-map type, and a legacy content filtering system. Treyarch says it also brough back some original Warzone elements, such as equipment icons and armor plate shape. More Multiplayer maps, modes, skins, and much, much more are coming with Season 1 when it arrives tomorrow. For a breakdown of the highlights, you can check out Treyarch’s roadmap here. You can also learn about some of the wacky Operator bundles, which include shark and racoon cosmetics, that will be available to purchase in the coming weeks. Finally, you can see the full Call of Duty: ****** Ops 6 and Warzone Season 1 patch notes below.

Addressed an issue where players would be mistakenly shown an out-of-bounds warning while navigating a mission. Addressed an issue that would prevent players from completing a mission due to the untimely passing of Gladney. MULTIPLAYERMaps Lowtown Addressed an issue where the water would flicker for some players. Protocol Adressed an issue where the water would flicker for some players.Adjusted the A S&D bombsite to prevent line of sight from artillery above.Red Card Addressed an issue where players could get outside of the intended playspace.VaultAdjusted the A S&D bombsite to reduce line of sights from start spawn area.SpawnsSpawn logic updates across several maps to reduce the chances of spawning near enemies.Adjusted start spawns in Subsonic to prevent damaging opposing ****** team at match start. ModesAddressed an issue across several maps where Hardpoint zones could be captured outside of the intended boundaries. Addressed an issue where incorrect icons could display on the Next Hardpoint lock icon. Addressed an issue where the ***** in Search & ******** could not be retrieved if dropped on a destroyed vehicle. Addressed an issue where the “Time is almost up” line would play too frequently in Gunfight. Game Chat Addressed an issue where some players were unable to hear each other during Intermission (between rounds) and in Post-Game voice chat. Weapons Throughout the pre-season we have seen a steady and healthy variety of ******* usage. Most weapons sit quite closely in both performance and pick rate, with no weapons dominating in both areas. As such our first round of Season 01 tuning changes will not be introducing any major shifts to the current state of ******* balance, and instead focus on elevating some of the weapons at the bottom of the pack. We are also addressing feedback regarding ******** Rifle damage in ********* and completing our adjustments to the shotgun slug attachment. Reminder: We're using a new ******* Damage Adjustments tables to identify post-patch damage changes when possible. Need an explainer? Click here! All WeaponsAdjusted ******* motion while moving and changing stances to improve aiming feel and centering (especially with optics). Hold Breath focus state will now be maintained while ******* if applicable.Improved ******* depth of field settings when performing a ******* Inspect.******** Rifles We are increasing the damage values for some of our ******** Rifles to ensure that they ***** in just one bullet in ********* modes. The headshot multiplier changes have either kept the bullets to ***** with headshots the same or even improved them at some Min Damage Ranges. Shotguns Strelok Laser Attachment Adjustments Increased the time it takes to reach ADS spread from 20% of Aim Down Sight Speed to 70% of Aim Down Sight Speed Slug Attachment Adjustments Slugs allow players to run shotguns as mid-range precision weapons. As a tradeoff, they have limited short range effectiveness if you are not carefully hitting headshotsMarksman Rifles We are adjusting handling stats on the burst rifles so that they fit more squarely into their intended roles. The Swat 5.56 has a slower ***** rate within each burst and more recoil, making it better suited for mid-range engagements. Meanwhile the AEK-973 has better stability and precision, but a longer burst delay makes it a riskier pick when playing aggressively. We are also significantly reducing the power of the AEK-973 Rapid *****, which was too strong not to take. ******* Rifles We have been monitoring feedback on ******* Rifles and are making some changes to promote more build diversity and improve the sniping experience before gaining access to a complete attachment set. We are lowering the baseline flinch on all Snipers and reducing the Flinch Resistance given by stock attachments. The resulting received flinch values are much lower up front and just a bit lower overall after equipping the stocks. We are also increasing Aim Walking Movement Speed bonuses on stock attachments to make those choices more valuable. Lastly, we are improving the ADS Idle Sway delay by default on all Snipers, meaning that on average there will be less deviation from your point of aim when entering ADS. Our goal is to support the various sniping playstyles you all enjoy through several viable ******* builds. We will continue to monitor ******* and attachment data as well as your feedback to ensure that all sniping playstyles are fun and rewarding in ****** Ops 6. ******* Rifle Class Adjustments All snipers now have 1 second of 50% Idle Sway scaling at the beginning of Aim Down Sight All snipers have had base Flinch Resistance improved by 17% Gunsmith Various updates to ******* descriptions. Addressed an issue where stickers would appear in the Decal slot. Perks Slight reduction to Ninja footstep volume.Additionally we’ve made a slight reduction to default footstep volume.Addressed an issue that prevented Gearhead from being able to ******-trap ****** Care Packages.Addressed an issue that prevented Equipment from replenishing with the Scavenger Perk.Scorestreaks Archangel Addressed an issue where the rocket would sometimes explode immediately when ******* near a wall. Challenges Addressed an issue where some Daily Challenges were not tracking properly. Movement Updates Addressed a bug causing player to be slowed when shot while mantling. Theater Added Nuketown and Private Match recordings. Addressed various stability issues when viewing matches. UI Closed an exploit that allowed players to equip Operators they had not unlocked. Addressed an issue where the AAR could close when entering the Scoreboard tab. Addressed an issue earned and unearned medals would not display correctly in Collections. Addressed an issue where the option to select an attachment skin would not be visible for some players. Graphics Addressed an issue where some ******* effects would persist on the character after changing weapons. Stability Added numerous stability fixes. ZOMBIESMaps Terminus Addressed an issue where defuse progress was sometimes not saved if the player stopped defusing during the Apocalypse Protocol Main Quest step. Addressed an issue where entering a Kazimir after completing the Main Quest would teleport the player to the boss arena and down them. Addressed an issue where loading into a saved game after unlocking the Pack-A-Punch machine could cause some doors to have inconsistent collision. Addressed an issue during the Main Quest where connecting both Node Connectors at the same time would cause overlapping voice lines. Changed the location of the Ammo Cache on the Seaside Path. Liberty Falls Updated the first Mangler whose arm is blown off to always drop a Mangler Cannon instead of only the first Mangler that spawns. Resolved an issue where Blanchard would not be present during some dialogue. ******* Adjustments The recent changes to ******** Rifles in Zombies were an unintended carryover from a global ******* tuning pass. We do not intend to inherit all MP ******* tuning without looking at how it affects Zombies tuning as well. We have corrected this in this update, while also making a pass on increasing the damage performance of ARs in Zombies. All ARs have had their Pack-a-Punched base damage and overall critical damage increased. While you may see the word "decreased" in a few places, the performance for these weapons is still increased overall! Additionally, the HE-1 Launcher has gotten a buff to become more useful at stopping hordes of zombies. When Pack-a-Punched, it will now have more stock ammo and a larger ********** with more overall damage. Bug Fixes Addressed an issue where camos were not being applied to Zombie Builds. Closed an exploit that allowed players to have 3 weapons. Addressed an issue where Wallbuy rarity would reset when loading into a save. Addressed an issue where yellow damage numbers would appear when hitting a critical spot with the Ray ****. PerksQuick ReviveDying Wish Augment Addressed an issue where Dying Wish could activate when diving from large heights while protected from fall damage. Elemental Pop Addressed an issue where Elemental Pop would prevent normal Ammo Mod activations. Jugger-nog Turtle Shell Augment Turtle Shell will now apply damage mitigation when being grabbed by an Amalgam. PHD Flopper Addressed an issue where diving onto an elevated or inclined surface, such as stairs or up a hill, would not activate the perk. GobbleGums Addressed an issue that prevented players revived by Near ****** Experience from keeping all their Perks. Field Upgrades Adjusted the description for the Energy Mine to no longer say it deals Electrical damage to accurately reflect the damage type. Increased Dark Flare damage from 25% to 40% of the base zombie max health per tick. Addressed an issue where an extra charge on Field Upgrades would be lost when loading a save. Support Addressed an issue that could cause the Mutant Injection to end early when near water. Addressed an issue that allowed the player to pick up a Sentry Turret while using Mutant Injection. Reduced self-damage from the LDBR. Save & Load Closed an exploit that allowed keeping a save file after it had already been loaded. Enemies Addressed an issue where zombies charmed by Brain Rot could prevent the player from completing an exfil. Addressed an issue where loading a save would disable the rampage inducer if it was active. Addressed an issue where zombies would throw guts at the end camera if the player leaves the match to end the game. Terminus Addressed an issue where rarely the round would not end after ******** all zombies. Addressed an issue where the Amalgam could grab the player while slowed. Addressed an issue where the Amalgam could pull players into walls causing them to get stuck. Addressed an issue where diving while being hit by knockback from Patient 13 could push the player further than intended. Liberty Falls Addressed an issue that prevented the Abomination from spawning inside Fuller’s Liberty Lanes. Addressed an issue where the Abomination could ***** off a beam ******* before leaving a spawn closet. Activities Addressed an issue that would prevent one elite from spawning consistently during exfil from rounds 16 onward Updated S.A.M. Trials that required the player to not take damage to display a progress bar instead of a timer. Terminus.Addressed an issue where players would be able to use Equipment, Scorestreaks, and ***** weapons during the Boat Race awards sequence. XP Earn Rates Addressed an issue where XP was being awarded to all weapons being used in an assist instead of just the last one. If two weapons were used in an assist only the last one used by the players getting the assist will be awarded XP. Challenges Addressed an issue where Wall Buys would not progress the Prestige 8 Challenge Value Town. Addressed an issue where Legendary GobbleGums would progress the Ultra Prestige 8 Challenge Full Power instead of Ultra GobbleGums. Addressed an issue where the Liberated Challenge could be completed by saving and quitting before starting the final encounter. Addressed an issue that would complete the Social Distancing and Invincible Challenges by joining a game in progress. Addressed an issue that would complete the Harbinger of ***** Challenge when loading into a saved game and using a Scorestreak. Addressed an issue where the Prestige 5 Challenge ***** & Forget would mention needing a ******** Run medal instead a Lethality medal. Addressed an issue where the player would not complete Outrageous Challenge until Round 16 instead of Round 15. Addressed an issue where loading a save past Round 25 would complete the Sticks N’ Stones Challenge. Addressed an issue where the Dark Journey Challenge could show as not complete when unlocking Nebula on 33 weapons and being awarded the Calling Card.
