As with any big Modern Warfare update, there is an almost overwhelming amount of changes to the game right now. First of all there are some map and playlist changes. Players will now see Verdansk International Airport in Ground War, Livestock in Gunfight, Oil Rig and Harbor 24/7, and Search and Destroy Double Down (12v12). Warzone players will see Duos, Trios, Quads, Solo Buy Back, Blood Money Quads, and Mini Royale Trios (which is fast paced and takes place in a condensed area of the map).

For general changes, one of the biggest updates is the addition of weapon inspection. This favorite Call of Duty feature has been highly teased recently, and it is great to see it already added into the game. Other updates include character model fixes as well as player choice of weapon fire and scope state changing to default when after interacting with objects. Stopping Power rounds will now stay on dropped weapons, and footstep intensity now has a slow decay from players stop sprinting.
There are plenty of Modern Warfare multiplayer changes. Multiple audio bugs have been fixed alongside collision and wallbang issues. Exploits involving Recon Drones and Care Packages as well as an unlimited ammo bug have all been resolved. An ammo issue with the PKM – Bludgeoner has also been fixed, so now it can collect ammo from any PKM gun.
On the Warzone side of things, there are new loot items as well as weapon balances for several guns. Weapons in the Gulag will now rotate weekly between four sets. Issue with the Heartbeat Sensor and Air Strikes not working properly have been fixed as well. Respawning dead players with the Most Wanted contract has been fixed to respawn them in the Gulag no matter their state. Challenge fixes, helicopter physics issues, and voice lines have been dealt with as well.
Season 5 has given Modern Warfare players plenty to enjoy with the new updates, and it will be interesting to see how players respond to these changes. With a new Call of Duty still unannounced, it is great to see this one getting continuous updates alongside a dedicated player community.
