Modern Warfare 3: November 30th Patch Notes.

Sledgehammer Games has released a new weekly update featuring a host of in-game changes in light of the game’s controversial launch. Modern Warfare 3 has set record engagement numbers for a MW CoD game, and despite positive feedback from players, there are still some issues that the developers are trying to resolve.

The November 30th update addresses issues that players have been experiencing since launch, such as performance issues, graphical issues, in-game bugs, and AR, SMG, and LMG improvements. Popular skins from MW2, Gaia and Gaia operator BlackCell have been disabled for future changes.
