Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 players are facing significant issues following the latest update, particularly those trying to enjoy the game in split-screen mode. With the Call of Duty franchise experiencing a highly anticipated week, the unexpected glitches have left many players frustrated, especially given their expectations for a polished experience after the recent update.
Earlier this week, Call of Duty rolled out a substantial update, designed to enhance the game’s user interface and prepare for the imminent launch of Black Ops 6. Although the update improved the interface, players have reported a range of issues, including crashes when using the split-screen feature. This problem, widely discussed across social media, seems to persist despite attempts to restart consoles, affecting users on both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
At the time of writing, Activision has not yet acknowledged these issues or offered a fix, leaving many players in limbo. Split-screen, a feature enjoyed by those playing with friends or family members, has become unusable for many, tarnishing what should have been a smooth week for the franchise.
The split-screen glitch isn’t the only problem players are facing. Multiple users have reported that the update has caused their game files for Modern Warfare 3 to be wiped, forcing them to reinstall the files. This issue, combined with the split-screen crash, has dampened excitement for some fans of the series.
Despite these setbacks, this week remains crucial for Call of Duty enthusiasts due to the imminent release of Black Ops 6. Set to launch on October 25, Black Ops 6 will mark a significant milestone by becoming the first title in the Call of Duty series available on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate from day one.
Among the details already revealed for Black Ops 6, a notable change is its departure from the branching storylines and multiple endings seen in previous Black Ops entries. Instead, the game will feature a linear campaign with a single ending, a departure from the narrative flexibility offered in Black Ops: Cold War.
As players eagerly await the release of Black Ops 6, the hope is that these issues will be addressed swiftly, allowing for a smoother experience for all.
