nice! Thanks for the update dodger!

That host migration issue is a nice fix. Should make the game more Halo-esque in the lobby system.

Patch is out now per Teamxbox

Call of Duty 4 Feature Patch Available Now - Xbox

The much anticipated feature patch for the Xbox 360 version of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare has been released. Below is the info provided by Infinity Ward on some of the new features found in this patch:

New Kill Cams

We’ve added new Kill Cams for everything. So now those “WTF!” grenades that seemingly come from no where, you can see that a guy threw it over the house, it hit a tree branch, bounced off a rock, into a tiny window, where you happened to be pointing out of, and say…… whoa. Follow behind RPGs and M203’s kill cams, claymores, Airstrikes where you can follow the bomb from the plane until it hits you.

Host Migration

Now you won’t have to be dropped back by yourself when a host leaves. Instead, everyone will stay together, a new host will be assigned, and the game will auto-start back up. Keeping everyone together, no more re-inviting, re-joining games because some host leaves. This has been a tall order and something that we’ve put a lot of work into which has allowed us to really optimize online play all around not just specifically with Host migration.

Improved Sniper / ACOG Accuracy

Sniper and ACOG scopes have been tweaked and are really improved. I use to not snipe at all (mainly because I’m a horrible sniper), but now it’s so much more fluid and natural, while still having the same difficulty to use, it has no more “WTF I know I hit that guy!” moments.

Upgraded Spectator Cam

Now when you’re in spectator mode you can follow them in 3rd person, switch to their first person view, or rotate the camera in a full 360 degrees around whoever you’re watching.

Quick Mute Option

Users will now be able to quick mute players on the fly by pulling up the scoreboard in-game or via the lobby by simply going to their name and hitting the mute assigned button. As quickly as calling in and designating an airstike. So no longer getting killed while trying to make your way through the Xbox blades for the mute option so you can shut up the guy who always seems to find it funny to sing into his mic or cover up for his lack of skill by telling you how to play Domination his way.

its up. pretty cool to watch the kill cam with a grenade. although i cant wait to watch the air strike one but that kinda requires dying.

[D_Litch]

Coolio, I may actually start playing this game again.

[Thornes70]

Wow, what does that say when the biggest "yay" is about using the quickmute!

Hey, howzabout an option to turn things off & have it actually work?

[Stewii Griffin]

well just died in an air strike on vacant and guess who died inside of a building o and it does kill cam on clay morters

[A SpecialFriend]

Yeah, the new kill cams are pretty sweet. I've yet to see a claymore or c4 but I'm sure it's nice! The sniper does seem a little better now too. Thank you IW!!
