Modern Warfare's massive Update 1.19 is now live. The patch kicks off Season 3. Multiple things like audio, weapons, and operators have gone through tweaks and adjustments. XP changes were made, and several bugs were also fixed.
Decoy Grenade will now have fewer amounts of XP and score. Audio has been greatly adjusted, and things like the sound when you are on the plane won’t be as loud (thank you for this) and audio when you enter the Gulag has also been reduced. Distant weapons now don’t sound as loud as before and footstep sounds have also been adjusted.
In Warzone, players can now find out how far away are they from the rest of the team. The gas mask animation won’t stop players from opening parachutes anymore and deploying shield turrets will not kill your teammate. The update also improved the overall stability of the game.
All the tweaks made are mentioned below and on the official forum.
