Infinity Ward: Modern Warfare 3 post-launch support to be “major focus”

4.4
Modern Warfare 3 will not suffer from its predecessor's lack of post-launch support, Infinity Ward has insisted.

Infinity Ward creative strategist Robert Bowling tweeted that constant patches would be a top priority for the developer.

"That is a major focus of mine and the entire team since the feedback from Modern Warfare 2," Bowling wrote.

Infinity Ward will be looking to improve on the many updates required to aid Modern Warfare 2, which found itself casualty to a plague of post-launch problems.

Trophy errors, broken party invitations, the infamous Javelin missile patch, care package glitch and various online exploits all required fixing.

As recently as February this year a major patch was pushed live to try and counter player hacks affecting online play.

It comes as the studio were lambasted for not fixing multiplayer exploits and hacks quick enough with Modern Warfare 2 after its November 2009 release.

Modern Warfare 3 will launch on PS3, 360 and PC on November 8. The first full trailer for the game will air during the NBA Playoffs on Monday night/Tuesday morning.

TTG_Monkeyz Lol agreed / they might act gay like on black ops


Treyarch is doing a great job in Black ops to protect the game and make it fair for people who actually have skill and are Legit.

Infinityward should follow in treyarchs footsteps
in keeping the game on an almost no glitch/hack state with updates and patches, so dont say there acting "GAY" or the games suck becouse u cant cheat becouse glitches are errors that were not even supposed to happen, same goes for hacks


Just no. Even if glitches/hacks are gone. The reason I think CoD 4 was the best was because it was soooo much simpliar. Think back before custom killstreaks, the camos. When you use to be able to quickscope. When you always knew that UAV was the 3 kills and 7 was heli/dogs. THAT is why Black ops sucks.

This. Oh god this. If IW can keep the game patched post launch, make sniping like it was and not go down the 3arch path, this is going to be a great game.

I would buy MW2 with new guns, new maps, and new perks for the same price as a normal game. I can't see MW3 not being a success.
