# Server Log File improvements, including

* Team Names on Kill loglines.
* Round Win and Loss.
* Timestamps.
* Additional action logging (took flag, destroyed headquarters, planted bomb, etc).

Really? They didn't have that before? Wow, such a shame and now I can really see why the game can be a bitch to admin as if the lack of in game controls weren't enough.

Wonder if that Round Win/Loss thing means they'll finally fix that glitch about whoever wins the last round wins the match.

Unfortunately, I don't think so. That "fix" is listed under Log File improvements, so the famous "last round winner wins it all" bug will likely remain. :5

Team names on kill loglines will certain make it easier to track down ITKers.

True; as should timestamps.

That's it? What a shame. I would wait for them to patch it, so that the patch could include some game play tweaks, such as the last round wins it all glitch.

At least they are fixing the fucking Vista sound issue. That has to be about the most annoying bug ever in a patch.

Seriously. How do you break something like that when, as far as I know, they should not have touched the sound files/code at all?

Welcome to modern day Developers. They break things that weren't broken and can't fix what is. It is a shame really, because the game is much better than previous WWII versions.

I have been playing a little COD2 rifles and it is amazing at how much better COD:WaW is, but they can't seem to fix the little things fast enough to make people like it. COD:WaW really hasn't caught on like previous installments, and since MW2 is coming out I doubt WaW will have the same life expectancy as the others.

There's no doubt this game needs work, like balancing out the weapons a bit more, fixing the god awful spawn system, the game lags tremendously, plus there's still plenty of bugs that need to be worked out. I think they rushed it out and didn't really spend enough time polishing it, and for that, the game will suffer.
