Call Of Duty Modern Warfare Season 3 Patch Update 1.19

The Call Of Duty Modern Warfare Season 3 Patch update rolled out last night, depending upon the timezone, one will have to adjust. Update granted across all platforms Xbox, PS4 and PC. The respective sizes for the update patch 16GB (PC), 13.6GB(Xbox) 11.6GB (PS4).

What are the new features? Brand new operator as a part of the battle pass. Our first viewing of Alex operator seems surreal, looked pretty sick with those accessories. On top of that, we have a bunch of new loadouts – brand new maps, weapons, gun-skins as well as vehicle designs. As per Infinity Ward, here are the latest updates.

The Latest Call of Duty Changes

New Maps (6v6):

• Aniyah Incursion ? Reminds you of entire Aniyah Palace map, doesn?t it? Incursion is a smaller version of the same map for 6v6 and 10v10 fight. However, this one is much more constrained central palace in Aniyah Incursion. Aniyah Palace might get replaced too quite soon.
• Talsik Backlot ? The location is somewhere in the Urzikstan desert. Evacuated urbanized city. This multiplayer map also has a construction building right in the centre, acting as a proper vantage point. Looks extremely reminiscent of combat clips of Middle East. One of the best maps for close combat door-to-door sealed movement with a panopticon overwatch.
• Hovec Sawmill ? This one is a modernized version of a lumbering mill. Its moderately sized, not too big, neither too small. Agents will fight around the area while the mill is on fire. Quite a picturesque ambience to distract players with serenity. Rooftops are excellent vantage points.

New Guns

Two new weapons also get introduced with this new patch update – SKS and the Renetti Pistol. SKS functions as a 7.62 calibre DMR, the best choice for marksmen who value quantity over quality as the accuracy is a little off. While the Renetti is a 9mm mag with three-round burst fire mode.

War zone also gets a new game mode – Quads. Simple four-person squad. The new guns, skins are all available here as well.
