Patch nel multiplayer di Modern Warfare 3: visibilità rivoluzionata e molte nuove feature
A poche ore dal rilascio del nuovo Modern Warfare 3 (sarà accessibile a partire dalla mezzanotte), scopriamo la prima importante patch che riguarda il multiplayer del nuovissimo titolo di Activision.
Tanti i miglioramenti sviluppati dai devs, tra cui un importante “buff” alla visibilità, che secondo svariati esperti sembra sia stata “pesantemente migliorata”, e svariate aggiunte all’HUD del giocatore… Tra queste, anche l’aggiunta di un elemento nell’HUD che mostra il numero di kill del giocatore dopo ogni uccisione, ed anche l’aggiunta delle Calling Card del giocatore sui vari popup legati agli eventi della partita.
Di seguito, andiamo invece a vedere la lista completa con tutte le modifiche della patch odierna, ad iniziare proprio dai miglioramenti alla visuale ed all’interfaccia di gioco.
It’s time! Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III is beginning its global launch rollout. Before you dive into the day one content offering, give a look to our Patch Notes detailing the changes we’ve made since you last played during the Multiplayer Beta.
The global launch rollout for Console (PlayStation/Xbox) players begins today at 12 AM GMT+13. Modern Warfare III will be available worldwide on all platforms later today by 10 PM PT. Visit our Preparation Blog for more information.
Today’s launch is only the beginning, and we look forward to providing a consistent stream of content updates, bug fixes, and gameplay adjustments in the year ahead.
