SHGames hat heute ein weiteres Update für „Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (Modern Warfare III)“ veröffentlicht. Die Aktualisierung erfolgt in Form eines Listenupdates im Spiel.

Nachfolgend findet ihr die vollständigen Patch Notes.

Patch Notes – Update – 21. November 2023 | Modern Warfare 3

Mit dem heutigen Update für „Modern Warfare 3“ werden Verbesserungen der Performance und Stabilität vorgenommen und auch Exploits geschlossen. Auch an der Sichtbarkeit wurde ein wenig geschraubt. Zudem wurden Anpassungen an der Nutzeroberfläche vorgenommen. Seit dem vorherigen Update ist es möglich, Waffenkammer Herausforderungen auch ohne Abschluss der Tages-Herausforderungen abzuschließen, also einfach nur durch den Sieg von Runden. Im Menü wurde das nun auch entsprechen angepasst, damit ihr es besser erkennen könnt. Außerdem wurden auch kleinere Anzeigefehler und Trackingfehler bei wöchentlichen Herausforderungen behoben.

Zu den wichtigsten Anpassungen des heutigen Updates zählen allerdings die Balance-Änderungen für Waffen. Dazu zählen eine leichte Abschwächung von Sturmgewehren und eine Verbesserung von SMGs. Diese wurden zuvor schon vom Studio angesprochen. Auch für den Zombie Modus gibt es einige Anpassungen und Verbesserungen der Stabilität.  Nachfolgend könnt ihr alle Details.
