Modern Warfare 2 PC gets patched

15 January 2010

Infinity Ward yesterday released a patch for the PC version of Modern Warfare 2. The patch will automatically download and install via Steam, and is largely aimed at fixing a number of hacking vulnerabilities in the game.

Fix list

•    Fix for latest texture hacks

•    Fix to prevent players from getting inside geo

•    Fix to prevent players with illegally pirated copies of Modern Warfare 2 from matchmaking with legitimate Modern Warfare 2 players

•    Connection improvements for NAT-PMP routers

•    Fix for “elevator” glitch that allows players to get out of playable area

Since its launch Modern Warfare 2 has been widely criticised for having a significant amount of players cheating.

It remains to be seen how long this patch can keep cheaters and pirates at bay.
