Season 3 rolled out earlier this month, introducing new Multiplayer maps, Operators, weapons and a Warzone revamp.

It also pushed the storyline forward, including a limited-time event called “Hunt for Adler”.

The season is expected to last several months, and will add new content along the way.

But Activision and Raven Software have just released an early patch to fix some bugs.

Here are the official patch notes from Raven Software…

  • The sizes of the first and second circles have been reduced for Verdansk Resurgence.

  • Fixed a bug with “Hunt for Adler” Limited-Time Event Challenge completion not tracking as intended.
  • Fixed a bug causing “Hunt for Adler” Limited-Time Event Intel to spawn outside of the playable map.
  • Fixed several map locations in Verdansk that allowed players to reach out-of-bounds areas.
  • Fixed a bug that would cause gas mask overlays to remain on screen indefinitely if a player exited the gas as their gas mask was fully depleted.
  • Fixed a bug where the epic loot M82 Semi-Auto Sniper was incorrectly labeled as thermal.
  • Fixed a bug where the Modern Warfare “Razorwire” Submachine Gun Charlie blueprint could appear in loot caches.
  • The R1 Shadowhunter Crossbow has had its reload audio restored.
  • Fixed a bug that disallowed players from exiting the plane in Battle Royale Practice mode.
  • The explosion in Verdansk’s vista no longer dances around when viewed from different angles.

Raven Software has also vowed to balance the CR-56 AMAX, the FARA 83 and the Bullfrog.

And you can also expect some changes to ADS Firing Speed on Cold War attachments.
