Infinity Ward finally addresses Modern Warfare\u2019s Dead Silence controversy Infinity Ward has finally addressed the Call of Duty community\u2019s concerns over the Dead Silence field upgrade, and revealed how long players will have to wait before the potential changes arrive. The highly anticipated release of Modern Warfare arrived last week, and with it came a host of new and returning CoD players dropping into Infinity Ward\u2019s ninth entry into the massive FPS franchise. While many have already praised the series\u2019 2019 release, the community has also found a number of issues with the game, including server failures, problems with the title\u2019s map design, and a bizarre teleporting bug triggered by tactical insertions. Another problem that has been discovered is a glitch with the Dead Silence upgrade, which has been failing to mask the sound of player\u2019s footsteps at all, despite the rechargeable boost suggesting it would \u201cmake your footsteps quieter for a short time.\u201d MW fans flagged the issue with the game\u2019s developers, and IW\u2019s multiplayer design co-director Joe Cecot confirmed the team was planning to bring a fix as soon as possible, though it would still take some time to send the patch live.

The devs have already proven they\u2019re ready to change aspects of the game as well though, adding mini-map changes to the title after its October 25 release, and adjusting multiplayer spawn quality after a raft of player complaints.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
