Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare update to fix prestige resets, speed reloads

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare seems to be doing pretty well critically, but Sledgehammer Games already has a number of fixes in mind for the shooter's first update.

An patch for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is inbound, according to a recent post on the Sledgehammer Games website.

"There’s an update in the works that includes a number of polish items, fixes, and community requested changes," Sledgehammer's Michael Condrey wrote.

Here's the proposed change list, which is of course subject to change.

Prestige reset issues, including emblems and challenges.
Adjustment to the in-game chat names notifications placement.
Fix for weapon reloads counting as speed reloads in certain circumstances.
Connectivity optimizations.
Fix for stats accumulating towards leaderboards after prestiging.
Adjustment to challenges to unlock Camos for weapons.
Fix for round-based game modes, affecting Win/Loss ratios.
Implemented ability to unlock eSports Rule options in Private Match.

This latest batch of proposed updates joins another touted closer to launch. There seems to be quite a lot of overlap.

There's no ETA on the update. Activision made a statement regarding Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare's dedicated servers over the weekend, although I doubt this comforts those affected by lag and other issues in multiplayer.
