Warzone 2's first update squashes dozens of bugs and bins Counter UAVs

We're now roughly a week in and the first Warzone 2 update has dropped. In this patch, Infinity Ward is mainly focused on sorting dozens of bugs that players have reported over the first seven days of the new battle royale, but there are some small gameplay tweaks to be aware of too.

For a start, don't panic about whether the best Warzone 2 guns have been meddled with - there are no weapon balance changes in this update. It's hardly surprising, given how many bugs have had to be squashed. Some of the most annoying issues have been addressed here, with fixes to parachute deployment crashing games, players being instantly eliminated rather than being downed, and much more across the core battle royale mode and DMZ.

Another nice quality of life improvement is that the phones you pick up to start contracts will now be a lot more easy to spot. Beforehand, it could be a bit of a chore trying to find the tiny object, even with it beeping at you, but it shouldn't require quite so much hunting around now.

All Warzone 2 DMZ key locations

If you have been exploring Al Mazrah in Warzone 2 you may have stumbled upon a locked box, or maybe you found a key. But, beyond the few you have found, there are actually dozens more and there are a lot of different Warzone 2 DMZ key locations where they can spawn.

This guide will cover the individual keys and the ways in which you can find them across the map. A lot is still being learnt about how this whole system works right now. As such, it isn't clear if there are individual locations for each specific key or if they all randomly spawn in a variety of locations. So, this guide is a work in progress, but still useful while you are using the best Warzone 2 guns and winning matches.

Warzone 2 DMZ easter eggs tell buggy tales about Al Mazrah's secrets

Warzone 2 easter eggs are starting to bubble to the surface, particularly in DMZ, with some of Call of Duty's finest secret hunters unearthing some interesting stuff that's buried in Al Mazrah. The most intriguing ones are some narrative-driven easter egg trails that are telling tales about what's been going on in DMZ, but actually completing these stories is proving to be tricky.

Within DMZ, easter egg hunters are finding various logs, notes, and files that describe various narratives, and many are linked in what appear to be circular, looping stories. YouTuber 'Geeky Pastimes' has already had a fair crack at piecing together two of these storylines - one involving a mysterious golden skull and the other involving a lone-wolf anarchist called Samum - but even with the best Warzone 2 guns equipped, a helicopter for quickly chasing down the next part of the trail, and loads of experience hunting Call of Duty easter eggs, things haven't been easy.

As well as Warzone 2 being plagued with dev errors (which will of course mean all the loot and weapons you're holding is lost when your DMZ game crashes) there also appears to be some frustrating bugs when it comes to these messages and a lot of the DMZ keys.
