Take a look at the full patch notes for the Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone March 13 update, which brings a nerf to the Longbow Sniper Rifle and bans the JAK Glassless Optic in MW3 Ranked Play.

Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 2 Reloaded brought plenty of new content to the game including a Warhammer crossover, new weapons, and new Weekly Challenges to discover. The mid-season update also delivered several buffs and nerfs, and the devs have made even more changes with another update on March 13.

The March 13 update aims to nerf certain Aftermarket Parts that players deemed overpowered like the Longbow’s Jak Tyrant 762 Kit. The update also adds the popular JAK Glassless Optic to the list of restricted attachments in MW3 Ranked Play.

Check out the full MW3 and Warzone March 13 update patch notes below.

  • Improved performance while scrolling in the Calling Cards menu.

MAPS

• Skidrow
  • In Hardpoint, additional spawn points were added to decrease the probability of an unfavorable flip.

One of many factors in spawn selection is to avoid a spawn trap. When a player dies soon after respawning, that spawn point is temporarily deprioritized. If there are not enough safe spawn points available, a spawn flip is more likely to occur.

By adding additional spawn points, the system has more safe options available, decreasing the chance of a spawn flip.
