Infinity Ward have made several bug fixes and quality-of-life changes.

A new update has rolled out for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The size of the update is around 1GB on both consoles and PC. The latest patch notes for MW2 have fixed issues and bugs that have occurred during the Season 3 rollout in the game.

Infinity Ward revealed the new updates in their latest blog post. The patch notes won't move mountains and shouldn't change the way that the majority of things feel in-game.

Most of the updates are quality-of-life changes to make the Modern Warfare 2, Warzone 2 and DMZ experience more streamlined and less buggy including better views of more "valuable" rewards in the Season 3 battle pass.
