A new update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is now rolling out across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms. Currently, MW3 is in the midst of Season 4, which only began a few weeks back. As a result, Activision is still finding its footing when it comes to balancing this latest season of the multiplayer shooter. To that end, today’s patch is a pretty extensive one and incorporates quite a few key alterations.ย
