CoD: WaW - PC Patch 1.7 Coming Soon!
Patch 1.7 will be coming soon to the PC platform. No, it doesn't contain map pack 4 (If there is one!), but it does fix some multiplayer bug issues.

From the CoD: Hub:

Good news – the team here at Treyarch are preparing a 1.7 patch to wrap up a few of the lingering issues surrounding the PC version of the game. Here’s a snippet from the 1.7 readme:

* Fixed a voice chat crash on systems with no default recording device selected.
* Fixed an issue causing erroneous duplicate qport errors.
* Server admins can disable team switching by setting g_allow_teamchange to 0. Players will be restricted to Auto-Assign in team-based gametypes.

The team is just putting the finishing touches on it before sending it off to QA for testing. No ETA is planned yet, but I’ll update when I get better clarity on its progress.

this is very good....

Now they need to make the "disableclientconsole" setting work.

and it would be great if these settings would work.
set scr_weapon_allowbetty "0"
set scr_weapon_allowc4 "1"
set scr_weapon_allowflash "1"
set scr_weapon_allowfrags "1"
set scr_weapon_allowmines "1"
set scr_weapon_allowrpgs "0"
set scr_weapon_allowsatchel "1"
set scr_weapon_allowsmoke "1"

and it would be great if these settings would work so admins can customize what voting is and is not allowed instead of just allow vote.
set g_allowvotekick "0"
set g_allowvoteclientkick "0"
set g_allowvotegametype "1"
set g_allowvotetypemap "1"
set g_allowvotemap "1"
set g_allowvotemaprotate "1"
set g_allowvotemaprestart "1"

It would also be nice to see some of these settings enabled
set scr_enable_spawn_protection
set scr_anti_camping_enable
set attach_allow_grenadier_gl///disables riflegrenades
set perk_allow_specialty_grenadepulldeath "0"///disables Martyrdom
set perk_allow_specialty_specialgrenade "1"
set perk_allow_specialty_weapon_bouncing_betty "1"
set perk_allow_specialty_fraggrenade "1"
set perk_allow_specialty_extraammo "1"
set perk_allow_specialty_detectexplosive "1"
set perk_allow_specialty_weapon_flamethrower "0"
set perk_allow_specialty_weapon_bazooka "1"
set perk_allow_specialty_weapon_satchel_charge "1"

But I'll settle for the Auto-assign.
Maybe they'll put out 1.8 to fix the disableclientconsole setting.

good BUT what about when DDD members try to switch teams to make maps last longer...it wouldn't be allowed

that right !!!!!

We hope that they will also provide protection from the auto assign for clan tags. But maybe that's too much to ask.
The other solution, is that some members can sit back and wait for the flag to come back along with going into spectate and join when the time is right. If we really have to, we'll just kick a noob and then auto assign.
Fortunately, when the servers are full it's not much of a problem.
