I don't like lowering the kill limit from 30 to 20 on free for all, I almost always get between 25 & 30...& it sucks now I won't be able to run extra long with my p90...oh well, though, I'm glad they're fixing snipers.

No. That's only private matches. Mercenary is no clans or party invites.

Hey Everyone --

I wanted to give you the heads up
on another small playlist changing coming to Call of Duty 4: Modern
Warfare since the most recent playlist update. We've been listening to
a lot of feedback based on the last changes & it seems an
overwhelming amount of players think the new Free-For-All score limit
is a bit too low, so we're going to be adjusting it a bit & raising
it to 125 score limit instead of 100.

Thanks for all your
feedback on this, community involvement is extremely helpful as we
continue to improve multiplayer & work on future updates for the game.

Patch Update:

Totally
unrelated to the playlist change, but I figured I'd give you guys a
heads up on the status of the upcoming patch as well. We ran into some
bugs with the host migration & therefore required some tweaks &
additional testing on said tweaks so the patch is still being worked
on. We're working on getting it out as fast as possible, & I'll let
you know when we can expect it.
