Developer of the highly-anticipated title Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Infinity Ward, has recently dropped details on some of the features set to hit with the PC version of the game. From anti-cheat systems to dedicated servers, it's all there. Check out what they had to say in a recent Q&A on the Call of Duty forum.
"We value the PC player and have gone to great lengths in providing a
more rich experience for our players," said community manager Robert
Bowling. "We keep our ear near the ground and try to deliver items most
requested."
"The big feature for MW3 we are supporting is Dedicated Servers, this
includes a server browser, voting, RCON, and more."
"Lastly we are embracing the Steam platform by integrating fully with
Steam including friends list, Steam achievements."
"We do wide testing across all tiers of PC," Bowling added. "In our
office we have an old min spec machine that receives just as much care
as our top tier PC. We've also engaged the hardware manufactures for
wider compatibility testing for us to ensure an optimised bug free
launch."
Bowling also went on to detail the problem of cheating, which is an
issue that plagued previous Modern Warfare titles.
"Security is a major focus for Modern Warfare 3, especially coming out
of Modern Warfare 2," he said. "We will be utilizing multiple methods
of Anti-cheat and Security methods, including Steam's VAC system, CEG,
and our own propriety methods implemented to provide multiple layers of
defence in keeping online multiplayer fun, fair, and secure for all
players without limiting the control they expect on PC."
