Modern Warfare 2 patch incoming tonight

A new Modern Warfare 2 patch will be releasing tonight for the PS3 version. Once again, a number of exploits will be addressed, including:

• Care Package, Emergency Airdrop, and Sentry Gun marker grenades sprint speed normalized

• Fix for "infinite care package" exploit

• 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"

• Fixes to prevent various XP hacks

Unfortunately, the patch went live earlier in Europe, and broke a key feature of the game: being able to play online. Since then, the patch has been pulled, and is awaiting yet another fix. Once SCEA certification clears the patch, it will go live in both territories. An Xbox 360 version of the patch is also in the works, but there is currently "no ETA" on when it will go live.

[Thanks Kurby!]
