Summary
Infinity Ward’s latest Modern Warfare 4 update boosts Search and Destroy and Collateral kill XP to 300 from 100 while rolling out a broad set of launch bug fixes.
The patch targets reported problems across Multiplayer, DMZ, UI and stability, including a Korean-language launch issue on Xbox and PC, loadout freezes, missing bomb interactions and incorrect weapon classifications.
Multiplayer also rolls back an earlier "bomb stretching" fix after it prevented some players from picking up the bomb, with Infinity Ward saying a new fix will come in a later update.
DMZ changes reduce Drill Charge damage against enemy Colossus, block deployment when items remain in the Overflow Stash, and fix mission, map and pricing bugs tied to Blueprints and objectives.
The studio said more updates are coming, including possible weapon tuning, as it continues post-launch support for MW4 after the game’s Oct. 23 release.
