Frustrated Call of Duty: Vanguard players call for fix to unlimited armor glitch ActivisionCall of Duty: Vanguard players are concerned as a new armor glitch is causing them to lose composure. It appears that the Armor Plates field upgrade is bugged, allowing players to become quasi-invincible. Call of Duty games typically have pretty fast TTKs (time-to-kill), but Warzone\u2019s armoring mechanic definitely slowed things down a little. Now, Vanguard players can get a taste of that in multiplayer too, thanks to a new field upgrade. Unfortunately, that taste is quite quickly turning into a buffet of seeming impenetrability. Pros and casuals alike are noticing that Vanguard players appear to have a lot more armor than intended, with some even spawning in already-shielded. The game just launched on November 5, so bugs are to be expected. But this one, which has yet to be officially confirmed a glitch, is at the center of community backlash. Call of Duty: Vanguard players react to armor bug Is there a glitch with the armor plates in this game? I just played a game where I was putting an entire clip in people from behind and not even breaking the plates \u2014 Brian Baroska (@BrianSaintt) November 8, 2021 Has anyone seen a glitch in this game with armor plates where people legit have 3x health? \u2014 Jordan Kaplan (@JKap415) November 8, 2021 Almost simultaneously, two Call of Duty League coaches tweeted asking about the bug. The LA Thieves\u2019 Jordan \u2018JKap\u2019 Kaplan and Minnesota ROKKR\u2019s Brain \u2018Saintt\u2019 Baroska each hit social media wondering if there\u2019s a glitch going around. In JKap\u2019s experience, it felt like \u201cpeople legit have 3x health.\u201d In Saintt\u2019s, he \u201cwas putting an entire clip in people from behind and not even breaking the plates.\u201d Both situations were bizarre enough to concern these two vets, who have over a decade of pro CoD experience each. In the replies, people confirmed that yes \u2014 there is a bug. And other videos and tweets brought more evidence to light. Call of Duty: Vanguard glitch spawns players in with extra armor? Yooo @PrestigeIsKey Hacking or glitch??? @SHGames he spawned in with armor pic.twitter.com\/d6LbJeDNnG \u2014 Joseph Spurlock (@JosephcSpurlock) November 7, 2021 In a separate video, someone asked Sledgehammer Games if an enemy was hacking or using a glitch. In their case, enemies seemed to be spawning in with a ton of armor already equipped. And then, in a reply to a JGOD tweet, another player also asked about the armor spawning. They were immediately responded to with a call to the devs: \u201cIt\u2019s an armor glitch that needs to be patched asap.\u201d It\u2019s unclear precisely what causes the glitch or how it works. But, whatever the case (instant armor spawns, extra armor plates, etc.), it seems that Vanguard\u2019s shielding field upgrade is working much better than intended.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
