Sledgehammer Games deployed an update for Call of Duty: Vanguard yesterday, which wiped players’ campaign mid-level save data, but fixed numerous other issues. You won’t lose all your campaign progress, but you’ll be reset to the beginning of the level you were last on.
An update has been deployed in #Vanguard!
Players can expect general performance improvements, fixes to some spawn bugs, weapon progression bugs, and Combat Shields will now protect when stowed.
