Switch your ADS Sensitivity Transition Timing back to Instant and equip Suppressors on all Ghost classes immediately. The November 10 patch fixes the hip-fire sensitivity return delay and removes the bug that kept unsuppressed players hidden on radar.

Multiplayer: Retest Instant ADS and Fix Ghost Loadouts

We verified post-patch that Instant ADS now reverts to hip-fire sensitivity the exact frame you release the aim button. Run this 10-shot drill to confirm if Instant beats your current Gradual configuration.

• Step 1: Set ADS Sensitivity Transition Timing to Instant in your controller or mouse aiming menu.
• Step 2: Enter the Firing Range, snap onto a dummy, release ADS, and immediately flick to a second target across 10 reps.
• Step 3: Repeat the 10-flick drill on Gradual and keep whichever setting yields a higher hit percentage.

Keep Gradual or After Zoom if your flick accuracy already exceeds 80%, as muscle memory beats minor frame adjustments. Never use the Firing Range to test live hit registration, because it runs an offline collision simulation that differs from active multiplayer servers.

Multiplayer Detection, Weapon, and Mode Fixes

Review these five stealth and weapon mechanics before queuing into your next match.

Drop unsuppressed Ghost flanking classes immediately, or enemy UAVs will pin you the moment you fire.

• Free-for-All & Gun Game: Enables match-wide voice chat across the entire lobby.
• Frontline: Fixes the Care Package capture bar stalling during active spawn protection.
• Killstreaks: Retains red target markers when a piloted streak briefly exits map boundaries.
• Firing Range: Repairs missing hit markers on low-velocity ballistic rounds.

DMZ: Scavenger Bonus Rules and X01 Recon Nerfs

The new Scavenger Bonus converts your loot value and survival time into cash after a failed extraction outside of Story Missions. Never intentionally die for the payout when carrying rare keys or mission items, because all physical inventory is still wiped upon death.

X01 Recon Nerfs and Keycard Tactics

In our X01 runs, UAV coverage dropped significantly, turning map-wide sweeps into strict single-building checks.

Hold your UAV until you are within 30 meters of your target building on X01.

• Keycard Verification: Inspect keycard descriptions for Staff Emergency Exfil, Audit Room, and Small Test Chamber before pushing the sector.
• Breach Protocol: Clear exterior angles even if a locked door is already open, as rival squads frequently camp unlocked high-tier rooms.

DMZ X01 Exfil and AI Fixes

We confirmed that upper-floor elevator traps and under-chopper explosive glitches are fully patched on X01.

• Crank Gate Elevator Shaft: Restores the extraction trigger inside the X01 Power Generator sector.
• Vault Elevator: Prevents squads from getting permanently locked inside after closing the doors on upper floors.
• Departing Exfil: Blocks ground explosions underneath the ascending helicopter from downing passengers inside the cabin.
• Player Bodies: Stops eliminated operator backpacks from clipping through the X01 floor geometry.
• Enemy AI: Ejects stuck AI combatants from vehicle passenger seats so you can hijack transports cleanly.
• Wheelson Commander: Fixes turret tracking delays so the boss locks onto sprinting operators accurately.
• Chemical Denial: Anchors the floating ether component so players can interact with it during the dynamic operation.

Warzone: Rebuild Legacy Loadouts and Verify HUD Fixes

Open every custom class containing Legacy Weapons before dropping in, as the patch unlocks previously frozen slots. In our pre-lobby testing, unlocked legacy builds frequently loaded with blank attachment nodes that must be manually re-equipped.

Match-Impacting Warzone Fixes

Restart your game client to force the playlist update if your HUD still vanishes after opening the pause menu.

• HUD Stability: Opening the pause menu for several seconds no longer strips your minimap and ammo counter upon returning to gameplay.
• Legacy Loadouts: Restores full attachment and perk editing for classes built around older weapons.
• Platinum Camo Challenges: Tracks longshots and specific requirements properly on the Osprey and CSG.
• Rally Points: Spawns the kill-milestone reward crate reliably once your squad hits the target threshold.
• Post-Match Flow: Restores the Play Again and Leave Match buttons immediately after squad elimination.
• KBM Spectating: Allows mouse-and-keyboard players to open the Match Summary screen while spectating teammates.
• Buy Stations & UI: Removes overlapping price text in the shop menu and fixes stacked operator icons on the squad widget.
• Public Event Weapons: Plays the distinct audio cue when picking up classified red-tier crates.

Hold high-ground head-glitches during final circles instead of relying on UAV pings, as elevated cover wins more endgames than radar sweeps.

Is Instant ADS sensitivity fixed in Modern Warfare 4?

Yes, the November 10 update eliminates the delay when transitioning from ADS back to hip-fire sensitivity in Multiplayer and Warzone.

Do you keep your DMZ items with the Scavenger Bonus?

No, you lose all physical gear and contraband upon death. The Scavenger Bonus only awards cash based on your loot value and survival time outside of Story Missions.

Is Mini Tracker still good on X01 after the nerf?

Yes, Mini Tracker remains mandatory for clearing tight rooms on X01 because the severe UAV range and duration nerfs make long-range radar sweeps ineffective.

Does the Ghost perk hide you while shooting unsuppressed weapons?

No, the patch fixed the radar immunity bug. Firing an unsuppressed weapon now immediately reveals your position on enemy sweeps even while moving with Ghost.

Did the November 10 update change Pawsome?

No, this patch leaves Pawsome untouched and focuses entirely on ADS transitions, Ghost radar detection, DMZ X01 recon nerfs, and Warzone UI stability.
