Modern Warfare patched on the PC

Infinity Ward rolled out a patch for PC versions of Modern Warfare 2 all across the land yesterday afternoon.  The update provides a few fixes to bugs and issues afflicting PC players of the record-breaking FPS, including fixes to sentry guns, airdrop marker grenades, and to one weapon: the Winchester Model 1887 shotgun.

You can check out the full list of tweaks and changes below.  Most appear to be pretty minor fixes, with the exception of a tweak affecting that little thing you’re holding in your hand.  Mouse movement has been made more consistent with this patch, something I’m sure many PC-based FPS champions will be happy with.

• Care Package, Emergency Airdrop, and Sentry Gun marker grenades sprint speed normalized
• Sentry Guns: Improved placement detection, preventing cases of Sentry Guns inside geometry
• Model 1887: Bling using Akimbo and FMJ combination now has same range and damage as non-Bling Model 1887s
• Improved player collision removing cases of getting into geometry and ‘elevators’
• Mouse latency tweaks for more mouse movement consistency
• Fixes to prevent various texture and XP hacks

If you haven’t put any Modern Warfare 2 rounds in since yesterday, the patch will be applied automatically the next time you launch Steam.
