I can announce them right now. The launch maps are going to be Ambush, Bog, Backlot, Crossfire, District, Overgrown, Shipment, Downpour, Crash and Vacant. So that leaves for December Showdown, Wetwork, Countdown, Strike, Bloc and Pipeline.
Activision has released the patch notes for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone ‘s newest update that rebalances weapons, fixes bugs, adds ground vehicles to Rebirth Island, and more. The minor update arrives as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has enjoyed a surge in popularity recen
I agree that that’s classic, however, when we popped that in there it did not look good. It really looked dated and it didn’t feel like it belonged in this modern space with this game, especially with all the other improvements we made along the way. So we figured out what the timing was for the ADS and decided we could not deviated from that in our limits. Then we created the animation that moves up and it feels more natural because you connected to your weapon a little bit more and at the last minute if you noticed it, it still pops. We felt that that was an important part, but we ended up doing more of an animation into that. So those are just a couple of different ways we took that.
This engine features a lot of the same functionality that you can find in modern CODs. So staring with those layouts and starting with the gameplay and the timing, our engineers created a system that would record controller inputs and it did a comparison between how much time it took to move from start to run, how much time it took for you to press a button and the action actually take place on the 360 and compared that to what it was on the Xbox One and Playstation 4. So I can tell you that down the hundreth of a second we are identical in timing to things like ADSs and things like mantling. We’ve also made improvements to them so they also look more modern and they act and behave as gamers today would expect them to. For the mantling we added animations that instead of just running up to something, pressing the button, then playing an animation to mantle over, and then picking up and running again. You can now run to it and if you press the button you can now plant your hand on the object you’re trying to mantle, crawl over it like you would in a modern FPS game guide, and you can keep moving. The timing is exactly the same, but the visuals are the upgrade we did in that regard. The ADSing for the sniper is a really good example in that we used to have an animation that moved about a quarter of the way and it just popped to a screen overlay.
As for Modern Warfare 3 ‘s update, Call of Duty ‘s SVA 545 AR received the only major weapon balance change, which is buffed with increases to its maximum, near-medium, and medium damage ranges. MW3 sees the same attachment changes as Warzone , along with “improved consistency” for penetration damage while using the MORS’ Photonic Charge barrel.

The MCW has once again risen in the meta for Season 6 of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone , thanks to a recent buff. This latest update has made the MCW much more effective at medium range , with a notable damage range increase at the 50- and 60-meter marks.

The Superi 46 is another great weapon that arrived at launch for Season 4, and it is arguably one of the more versatile Submachine Guns in the game. Though SMGs are primarily built exclusively for short-range gunfights, the Superi 46 boasts the ability to dish out great damage at medium range . The bullet velocity of this weapon is also on the high end of the SMG category, firmly putting it on par with some low-end Assault Rif
Hardcore Gamer was at Call of Duty XP in Inglewood all week long, immersing ourselves in everything Call of Duty. We’ve already posted our hands-on impressions of Infinite Warfare and a myriad of news, but now it’s time to delve deep into the inner-workings of this year’s releases.
