New master camo coming to Modern Warfare mid-Season 3

Infinity Ward has been teasing a new master camo coming to Modern Warfare soon for over a month now, and now the developers are giving an estimated time frame for the new feature.

The new master camo is scheduled to arrive in the mid-Season 3 update for the game, which should arrive in a couple of weeks. Infinity Ward’s Joe Cecot has confirmed that the new camo will “take a long time” to unlock for fans. In order to unlock the new camo, you will need to have gold camo unlocked for the weapon.

In terms of how this works, you only need gold per each weapon you want to unlock the master camo for – you don’t need to have gold for every single weapon + the new DLC weapons in order to progress for this master camo for a specific weapon.

And, Cecot has confirmed that Damascus camo is NOT required in order to work towards this new master camo.

Infinity Ward’s Art Director, Joel Emslie, has noted on Reddit that both the new master camo and Gunsmith Custom features will arrive in the same mid-Season 3 update that’s in the works.

The master camo and frankensmithing “Gunsmith Customs” are in the same update. Im not sure the exact timing so Im going to go with in Season 03 so I dont cause anymore confusion.

He has also confirmed that “master calling cards” – similar to the mastery calling cards in Modern Warfare 2 – are in the works and “not that far behind” the master camo update.

The weapon master calling cards are in process and not far behind.

Stay tuned for the latest on these new features.

Potential fix for Modern Warfare Update Stuck at 100% on Xbox One

Many users are reporting that there is an issue on Xbox One where the Modern Warfare and Warzone update from this week won’t fully finish and stays stuck on 100%.

Players are unable to load into the game, and are stuck waiting for the update to either finish on its own or not able to play.

Users on Reddit seem to have found a potential fix, which many users are saying worked for them.

Here’s the fix — please note: you need to know your Xbox Live login information in order to complete these steps. Once you hit the reset, all your game data is saved, but you have to re-login on Xbox One.

  • Go to Settings
  • Then System
  • Then Console Info & Updates
  • Then Reset Console
  • In Reset Console menu, select the ERASE AND KEEP MY GAMES AND APPS option

After following these steps, users are reporting that the update gets unstuck and finishes off installing to allow players to play again.

Activision Support confirms that they are aware of this issue and that rebooting may also work for some users.

We’re investigating an issue affecting the update/download progress bar on Xbox One.

Workaround: Try rebooting your console.

We will update if there is anymore information.

Here’s the first image of this skin:

And here’s another look at this skin:

It is not clear yet as to what the plans are for releasing this Skin for the Ghost Operator. This could be added via a Store Bundle during Season 3 of the game or it could be coming in future battle passes.
