Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis already the best-selling video game of 2019, absolutely smashing sales records in the process. As such, the game has a massive and rather vocal community, who have been quick to point out changes that they feel need to be made to make the game better. Luckily forCall of Duty: Modern Warfareplayers, Infinity Ward will be releasing a new update to address various issues “over the next few days,” according to Sr. Communications Manager Ashton Williams.
Williams took to Twitter to reveal that the nextCall of Duty: Modern Warfareupdate will improve stability, fix bugs, have some “weapon tuning,” fix ongoing issues with footsteps, and will also address claymores. Claymores are notoriously overpowered inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare, so many fans will be happy to learn that they will be getting tweaked in the new update, though how exactly they will change has yet to be revealed.

Claymores get complained about quite a bit byCall of Duty: Modern Warfarefans online, but there is another weapon that draws even more ire - the725 shotgun. With the right attachments, the 725 shotgun inCall of Duty: Modern Warfarecan effectively be used at the same distance as a sniper rifle, which is almost certainly not Infinity Ward’s intention. A fan on Twitter asked Williams if the 725 shotgun would be getting addressed in the new update, and she replied, “If testing goes well, yes.”
A 725 shotgun nerf may very well top the list of thingsCall of Duty: Modern Warfareplayers want to see fixed, so hopefully it comes in the next patch. In the meantime, it remains to be seen what else the update will entail, but Williams' tweet does say that there will be “more” than what she has listed, including fixes for theSpec Ops co-op modebugs.
Some fans will have their fingers crossed that the newCall of Duty: Modern Warfareupdate will add a new public playlist for multiplayer. TheCall of Duty: Modern Warfare1.06 update added Kill Confirmed after all, so maybe we’ll see some otherfan favorite modes like Gun Gameadded next.
