Downloadable across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, this new update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is tied almost entirely to game balance. Activision has either nerfed or buffed weapons that include the Static-HV, Kastov LSW, SA-B 50, Carrack .300, Basilisk, and Crossbow. These changes will clearly shift the Season 6 meta in MW3 quickly and are worth paying attention to. Other than these overhauls, one problem associated with playlists and another tiny adjustment was made to Infected mode.
To get a full look at everything that Activision has altered with today’s new Call of Duty: MW3 update, you can view the patch notes in their entirety below.
