Infinity ward‘s Community Relations Manager Robert Bowling (Fourzerotwo) recently gave out a few details on the first update for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare on the Xbox 360.
Although he couldn’t give the exact date this download will be available to the community (or if it will also be made available to the PC or PS3 versions of the game), he did mention what new features and optimizations gamers can expect from it when it does go live.
It looks like Infinity Ward has been listening to their fans since they’ve decided to add features such as kill cams for airstrike bombs and claymores. In addition, gamers will be happy to know that multiplayer games will no longer be cut if the host exits since the system will now auto-select the next best host among the active players.
Those who prefer the Oldschool mode will be happy to find out that they’re also getting some love from Infinity Ward. The next update adds unlimited sprinting to the mix as well as increased magazine sizes for the weapons. To watch all of the awesome kills you’ll be making, the developers have also added a nice Ragdoll cam.
In addition to those new features, Infinity Ward also added a few optimizations and tweaks to the game which should make online multiplayer much more smoother. So before we go, here are the rest of the changes that the update will also be implementing:
- Identify party by background color (in Lobby)
- Optimized server selection for first match for better connections
- Improved network performance for 18 player games
- Optimized ‘Chase Cam’ when Spectating
- Fixed Playlist error when attempting to join from other games
- Handle Corrupt Create A Class data instead of kicking player
