Update: The issue associated with the update causing data corruption has been resolved to an extent; you'll no longer encounter the error message, but the damage may have already been done temporarily. If you already customized some of your new loadout slots, you'll find those have been reset to their defaults--Infinity Ward says this is a one-time issue, so you're free to use them now.

　　However, if you hit "yes" on the error message, certain stats, leaderboard rankings, and so on will have been wiped. Actual progression, like your profile and weapon ranks, has not been lost. If you have yet to download the update, you're now safe to do so. You shouldn't get the bug. Our original story continues below.

　　Now Playing: Modern Warfare Has A Crossbow & A Stat Reset Bug - GS News Update

　　Today's community update is now live! See what happened this week at the studio, get updates to issues we're tracking, and see what's we're working on for next week! #ModernWarfare https://t.co/pl0itcRNS0 pic.twitter.com/9tDt53NOCc

　　— Infinity Ward (@InfinityWard) January 25, 2020

　　Infinity Ward has released a new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare update, making some additions and adjustments alongside a wide array of bug fixes. The January 22 patch is now available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The big new additions are a new weapon and additional loadout slots, along with rotated playlists. Read on for a look at the full patch notes.

　　The studio has also given a warning about a possible issue when downloading the update, telling affected users to hard-close their application if they get the prompt.

　　We're currently investigating an issue where players are getting an error prompt informing them their data is corrupt or did not download properly. Please do not select either option, but please hard close your application. Thank you for your patience while we work on this issue.

　　— Infinity Ward (@InfinityWard) January 22, 2020

　　The new weapon is a crossbow, which you can unlock by equipping a Marksman Rifle with a Reflex Optic, and then getting 5 kills in 25 matches. In case that extra weapon makes you itchy for more loadouts--or just because more loadouts are always good in general--the update also adds five additional slots. The playlist has been updated with Capture the Flag and Shoot the Ship, and Aniyah Palace is back in rotation.

　　Meanwhile, the update also makes some fixes to persistent bugs and exploits. One of those was to Aniyah Palace, which is why it's rejoining the playlist. But by the same token, IW is removing Krovnik Farmland to work out bugs. There's also bug fixes and balance adjustments for weapons, and some stability and display improvements on PC. You can see the full notes below.

　　If you're curious what Infinity Ward has in store for future updates, you can check out its DLC roadmap, which came alongside a dedicated Trello board to keep fans informed of its plans and which bugs are on its radar. You can also still purchase the Outback Relief pack to help bushfire relief efforts in Australia through January 31.
