Original story (published on June 1, 2022) follows:
COD: Vanguard arrived in November 2021 as the return to the WWII setting in the successful Call of Duty shooter saga.
The COD saga games offer multiple game modes, both online and offline. Although the multiplayer mode is the one that extends the life of these games, the offline modes are also quite appreciated by the players.
In addition to the main campaign, COD: Vanguard offers a ‘Zombies mode’ if you want to play offline. However, it seems it is experiencing some issues after a recent patch.
Currently, COD: Vanguard players are facing an issue in Zombies mode where their weapons are not loading or appearing when starting a match (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11).
COD: Vanguard Zombies weapons not loading or appearing
According to multiple reports, the issue causes players to be unable to progress or defend themselves through COD Zombies mode.
In most cases, the player’s weapons are completely missing. But, in some cases, the player’s loadout appears partially (only some weapons).
ok I am having a really weird issue in multiplayer everything is fine but when i load up zombies my weapon doesnt show and i cant fire cant even melee. all other functions work except attacking and switching weapons. any ideas? Source
Glitch appearing when using custom loadouts
The latest COD: Vanguard patch update (May 24) reportedly brought the glitch.
Also, it seems that the bug is affecting players who try to use custom loadouts instead of the base game weapons and items.
Official acknowledgment and workaround
Treyarch team is already aware of the glitch and is investigating. However, there are no details of an ETA for a fix yet.
The company also clarified that the problem is directly related to the unlocked reticles and bundle-related reticles.
In the meantime, Treyarch recommends players remove unlocked or purchased Optic attachment from their weapons, or change the reticle to ‘Default’.
Weapon Reticles: Players utilizing unlocked, or bundle-related, reticles may spawn without a weapon.
