Modern Warfare Update Adds Deathmatch Domination and Shipment 24/7, Nerfs M4 and MP5

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has gotten a new update that addresses numerous issues and adds new game modes to keep things fresh. This new update comes after a sizable patch last week—one that added the new Crossbow weapon along with the Capture the Flag game mode. Though, the update caused a corrupt data error issue, prompting players to reset their stats to proceed, which has since been resolved. January 28th’s update also nerfs the MP5 and M4. Likewise, Shipment 24/7 has made its return, making it much easier to level up your weapons, along with the implementation of Deathmatch Domination.

Deathmatch Domination—as the name suggests—is a hybrid of the two modes, allowing you to gain points for racking up kills, as well as capturing objectives. This mode was previously in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Capture the Flag has also been added as a permanent game mode after its inclusion as part of last week’s update.

Two of the most-used weapons in the game—the MP5 submachine gun and the M4 assault rifle—have been nerfed. The MP5’s headshot multiplier has been reduced, making it slightly more difficult to get a kill when shooting in the head. Its 10mm ammo has also gotten a range reduction. As for the M4, it too has gotten a decrease in headshot damage.

Here are Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s latest patch notes:
