World War Z Update 1.54

General Fixes

• One of the noteworthy fixes in this update addresses a bug that previously hindered players from effectively stopping the Bull enemy with Vanguard’s shield. Now, players can utilize the shield as intended, providing protection against the charging Bull and ensuring a more strategic defense for themselves and their teammates.
• Previously, players could use Vanguard’s shield even without equipment charges. This unintended feature has been corrected to ensure players can only deploy the shield when they have available charges. This fix prevents any unintentional shield usage when charges are depleted, maintaining a balanced gameplay experience.
• An issue causing the lever-action rifle to lack a silencer has been resolved. Players can now enjoy the intended functionality of the rifle with the silencer properly attached, allowing for stealthy and silent eliminations.
• Several bugs affecting player respawns behind closed doors in the Phoenix maps of Episode 8 have been fixed. This ensures that players respawn in appropriate locations, eliminating unnecessary delays and frustrations, and enabling a smoother gameplay experience.
• Random stutters and freezes during explosions in Episode 8: Phoenix – Fighting for Home have been eradicated. This improvement enhances overall gameplay by providing smoother and more fluid combat encounters.
• The performance in the outro video of Episode 8: Phoenix – The Low Road has been optimized for better visual quality and smoothness. This adjustment delivers a more immersive conclusion to players’ gameplay experience.
• A bug involving the ‘Chainsaw Massacre’ mutator has been resolved. Bots will no longer receive a chainsaw that players cannot use after an exchange, ensuring balanced and fair gameplay.
• The ‘Gun Shortage’ mutator now properly affects bots, subjecting them to the same limitations and scarcity of ammunition as players. This adjustment adds consistency and challenge to the gameplay experience.
• Two bugs related to the ‘My Chainsaw and Me’ mutator have been addressed, ensuring the scenario continues smoothly even when the player exits with the chainsaw. Additionally, players are resurrected with an infinite chainsaw, allowing uninterrupted use of this powerful weapon.
• Voiceovers for marking enemies by characters in Episode 8: Phoenix have been fixed, improving communication and coordination among players during zombie encounters.
• Voiceovers for planting thermite have been fixed, providing players with accurate audio cues and instructions, enhancing their understanding of the gameplay mechanics related to thermite usage.
• A thermite burning sound effect has been added to amplify the immersion and realism of using thermite in the game. Players now have an auditory cue for successful ignition and operation of thermite, enhancing the overall satisfaction of the gameplay experience.
• A bug causing the missing ‘Exchange Heavy Weapons’ hint in Episode 8: Phoenix has been addressed. Players will now receive necessary prompts for engaging in heavy weapon exchanges, adding strategic diversity to gameplay.
• Previously encountered bugs where mutators were not displayed in Challenges have been fixed. Now, all players can access and utilize the full range of mutators, adding variety and customization to their gameplay experiences.
• A bug allowing players to exploit a closed window in Episode 8: Phoenix – Fighting for Home has been fixed. This prevents unintended shortcuts or exploits that could disrupt the intended flow and challenge of the game.
• Issues preventing door opening in multiplayer sessions of Episode 8: Phoenix – Fighting for Home have been fixed. This ensures a smooth and consistent multiplayer gameplay experience, allowing all players to progress together without hindrance.

In summary, World War Z Update 1.54 delivers numerous bug fixes and improvements, ensuring a more seamless, immersive, and balanced gameplay experience for all zombie apocalypse enthusiasts.
