Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2‘s new weapon attachment tuning feature has been re-enabled.
The feature wasdisabled shortly after the game’s launchdue to reports that it was causing crashes.
It’s part of the Gunsmith system, which has been in previous Call of Duty games and allows players to add attachments to their guns, including scopes, magazines, muzzles, grips and stocks.
After levelling a weapon up to its maximum rank, Modern Warfare 2 players now unlock the attachment tuning feature.
It lets players adjust sliders which impact two specific stats for the weapon. By increasing the speed players can bring up their sights, for example, they may decrease the time it takes to fire after sprinting.
Players can equip up to five attachments on their weapon at any time, but it’s thought that tuning all of them was resulting in crashes.
DeveloperInfinity Wardsaidit plans to provide more details on the feature’s reintroduction in a blog post on Saturday, which will likely include further details on recent and future updates.
