Sledgehammer Games Swiftly Addresses Transition Glitches: Latest Update Targets Modern Warfare 3 to Modern Warfare 2 Switching Woes
Sledgehammer Games has rolled out a concise update aimed at resolving issues encountered during the transition from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 to Modern Warfare 2. This latest patch follows the substantial day one update for Modern Warfare 3, which sought to address a range of issues including a lackluster single-player campaign and multiplayer performance glitches necessitating a massive 51 GB fix.
While the day one patch introduced various content additions, including Modern Warfare 3's zombies mode and updates for Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare 2, it failed to tackle the specific problems arising when players switched from Modern Warfare 3 to Modern Warfare 2. Notably, PC players faced a unique challenge, as Activision mandated the opening of Modern Warfare 2 before launching Modern Warfare 3.
Recognizing these issues, Sledgehammer promptly released a targeted update designed to address two identified bugs linked to the transition from Modern Warfare 3 to Modern Warfare 2. According to the developer's Twitter announcement, the update resolves loading delays encountered when transitioning from Modern Warfare 3 to Modern Warfare 2. Additionally, it tackles a bug causing game crashes when accessing the Weapons tab during cross-launching from Modern Warfare 3.
For PC gamers engaging with Modern Warfare 3, this update is crucial. Due to Activision's directive, PC players faced extended wait times of 70 to 90 seconds when opening Modern Warfare 3, with the duration potentially stretching further based on individual hardware specifications.
While Sledgehammer's Twitter communication focused solely on the update's specific fixes, players seized the opportunity to highlight other lingering issues in Modern Warfare 3. These concerns ranged from tactical sprint complications after sliding to inaccurate sights and FOV discrepancies when aiming down sights. The community remains hopeful for future updates to address these issues, with the recent day one patch and the temporary removal of certain Hardpoint maps signaling a positive step forward.
