Call Of Duty Vanguard Beta Update 1.001 Patch Notes
Here are the official patch notes for Call Of Duty Vanguard Public Beta Update 1.001 that will start rolling out to all the supported platforms next week:
VISUAL UPDATES
Over the course of Alpha, we received a considerable amount of feedback regarding visibility. We’ve made several graphical improvements that you should notice in Beta, and we’ve responded to player feedback regarding low visibility when taking damage, and visibility issues with character/map lighting.
- Damage Overlay:
- Refined the damage overlay when injured to help maintain visibility.
- Lighting:
- Reduced the density of sun fog.
- Increased the rim light around players to help separate them from the background.
- Adjusted overall exposure—aka we turned up the lights.
AUDIO TUNING
The audio team has made improvements to weapon sounds that will be ready in time for Beta including:
- Non-player footstep volume slightly increased.
- Non-player weapon volume slightly reduced.
- Note: Non-player is anyone that isn’t you (enemies and teammates).
- Announcer volume and callout frequency reduced.
- Global MP mixing pass to improve informative audio for gameplay
CHAMPION HILL SPAWN TUNING
Throughout the Champion Hill Alpha, we observed spawn issues that resulted in players spawning very close to other players. To address this, the design team has adjusted the spawns on Champion Hill.
- We’ve tuned spawn locations and adjusted overall spawn logic. Hopefully, this should eliminate any more Angela & Dwight spawn scares.
- We’ve done away with that one spawn in Courtyard that forced you to have 3 seconds of awkward eye contact with your opponent. You know the one.
FIXES IN THE PIPELINE
Let us tell you that We received reports of nameplate visibility issues and aim assist tracking through destructible walls. While these fixes probably won’t be ready before Beta, we assure you they will be addressed before launch. Here’s which issues we’ve identified for fixes and a little information about why these bugs are happening:
- We identified a destructible wall in Champion Hill with a mismatched collision model. Even though it appeared as a solid wall, there was a hole allowing the raycast to pass through and show nameplates.
- Note: Nameplate visibility works by doing a raycast from you to other players. If there’s something blocking it, the nameplate shouldn’t be visible. Please keep this in mind while playing and make a report if something seems off.
- We are aware there are more nametag and aim assist-related issues and have an ongoing investigation on how to resolve them. Gameplay clips have been a great resource for our teams to find and squash these problems, so keep them coming.

FEATURES
Combat Pacing
Combat Pacing is a feature that allows players to select the intensity of their games. Player count is determined by map size to achieve the intensity described in the Combat Pacing System. Player counts will vary.
- Tactical: These are the lobbies that franchise veterans know well. This is the experience that you’re used to with classic Call of Duty combat timing. Tactical Combat Pacing is always 6v6.
- Assault: Balanced combat pacing that gives you enough room to breathe and a lot of targets to kill. In Beta Weekend 1, player counts will vary between 20-28 players.
- Blitz: High-action lobbies where the intensity is cranked up to frenetic levels. Prepare for plenty of combat when choosing to join a Blitz. In Beta Weekend 1, player counts will vary between 28-48 players.
