Both Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone are getting balance updates today. They tweak several weapons and fix a couple of bugs and issues. The multiplayer version also gets map changes, but it also gets prevention to ranked attachments and more.

As for the Warzone version, the important changes are related to the weapon balancing. You can find all the detailed patch notes below.

CoD Modern Warfare 3

GLOBAL

CUSTOMIZATION

  • Added missing visual effects to the muzzle of the Lament BlackCell Blueprint.

MULTIPLAYER

UIX

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved performance while scrolling in the Calling Cards menu.
    • Tracked Prestige Challenges will no longer disappear from the Calling Cards menu.
    • Seasonal content in offline mode will now match the available content in online mode.
    • Saving a Custom Mod in the Gunsmith will no longer remove certain Camos.

PROGRESSION

  • Gilded Mastery Challenge for the SOA Subverter now displays the correct requirements.
  • Priceless Camo Challenge for the SOA Subverter is now properly tracked.

MAPS

  • Skidrow
    • In Hardpoint, additional spawn points were added to decrease the probability of an unfavorable flip.

One of many factors in spawn selection is to avoid a spawn trap. When a player dies soon after respawning, that spawn point is temporarily deprioritized. If there are not enough safe spawn points available, a spawn flip is more likely to occur.

By adding additional spawn points, the system has more safe options available, decreasing the chance of a spawn flip.

MODES

  • Private Match
    • Increased maximum player and bot count from 12 to 24.
