Infinity Ward has shared a list of changes to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer ahead of tomorrow's release. The changes were made in response to feedback from the beta.In the beta, there was no indicator to differentiate between friendly and enemy players. This was traditionally achieved through name tags in previous games, but Infinity Ward took the design decision to remove them, seemingly to add to realism.
Footstep audio also got an overhaul so that enemy players will have to get closer before hearing your footsteps, while teammate footsteps also got quieter overall. The brand-new third-person mode also got a tweak. Aiming down sight no longer takes you to first-person mode unless you use a high-zoom optic .
The user interface, which was also heavily criticised during the beta, got some improvements to make it more seamless to access loadouts.Become a Eurogamer subscriber and get your first month for £1 Get your first month for £1 when you buy a Standard Eurogamer subscription.
