Details are still sketchy, but weâre getting a number of reports that the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 map pack that hit this morning is not entirely working.
The Stimulus Pack delivered five new maps for the multiplayer portion of Activisionâs popular shooter for 1200 Microsoft Points. But readers are reporting a slew of problems with the pack that just went live this morning.
