Modern Warfare 3 update addresses lag, certain glitches

4.3
Good news, soldiers: The multiplayer component of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has received its sixth title update since the game's launch; a patch which addresses lag and a number of glitches players have been exploiting for their own nefarious, personal gain. Gone are the days of melee-jumping, as well as clan tags which use the controller's symbols to spell dirty words. (Bal[LS] indeed, sir.)

A number of guns have also been tweaked (see: nerfed) as hotfixes introduced to the title. You can check out a full list of these readjusted armaments after the jump, and pray that your precious, precious firearm evaded the developers' all-seeing eye.

Title update: Additional improvements to address lag. Fix for Melee Jump. Clan Tag Validation (remove buttons from clan tags). Improve Host Migration logic. Prevent stat loss when player loses connection from server (internet pull / drop).

Hot Fix Updates
  • Fire rate normalization for Assault Rifles with undermounts
  • FMG9 Re-balancing (Nerf)
  • Akimbo FMG9 Re-balancing (Nerf)
  • Fix for Shotgun's with Extended Mags (Prevents them from shooting more pellets than intended)
  • Type95 Re-balancing (Nerf) - Reduce hipspread.
  • Fix for ACR with Red Dot / Shotgun
  • Fix Type 95 bug related to dropping it.
  • Fix map exploits on Dome

    The type 95 is still overpowered, I think they just tweaked the hip fire which was too good.

    Sweet Jesus finally! Tired of getting killed by 12yr olds using only Type-95's with akimbo FMG's as a secondary.

    Finally! I really hate type 95. I always die from one easy shot. It was way over power. I'm happy that they changed the balance.

    Agreed. Those two were the worst, but the striker wasn't far behind. Sounds like a successful update to me!

    Good to see them working on really important issues here. I'm kinda depressed that my striker with extended mags isn't as good now :(
