Modern Warfare 3 Season 4 continues the hot streak of adding lots of new multiplayer maps. This time around, Sledgehammer Games has added three entirely new maps:Incline,Paris, andTokyo.
Both Paris and Tokyo are available right now, while Incline will follow in the mid-season update. Once all three maps have been added,MW3’s map poolwill total an impressive 40 6v6 multiplayer maps, or 32 if carry-forward maps aren’t counted.
Last season, we made several adjustments to Perks to distribute usage in the Boots category more evenly. Despite these changes, the pick rate of Covert Sneakers remains far ahead of other Boots.
In today’s update, our Design and Audio teams have decreased the volume of all footstep types (walk, sprint, and tac-sprint) to encourage more diverse usage in the Boots category of Perks.
