14 DAY TRIAL // After releasing the first update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 on the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 platforms, Treyarch has now shared the actual changelogs that detail just what sorts of things did the patches actually fix in the game.
Most of the times, before the release of a patch for a game, a developer would post a list of the things included in the update.
Treyarch’s first Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 patch didn’t follow this strategy, as the studio has now shared complete changelogs about the actual updates, after they appeared on the PC, PlayStation 3, or Xbox 360.
As you can see below, plenty of things have been solved across all three platforms, but also specific glitches that happened only on a certain device, while extra features have been added, like the increased FoV limited of 90.
Check out the full details about each patch below, via MP1st.
