Overview
- Infinity Ward publicly acknowledged the hair-rendering problem on Tuesday and said the team will address it in a future update.
- Players shared viral screenshots during the Modern Warfare 4 beta showing Price with thin, patchy hair where the model’s texture failed to render correctly.
- The studio said the glitch appears when the character is viewed at the game’s lowest level-of-detail, which typically happens on lower-spec PC settings.
- Infinity Ward added the issue to its Trello board as ‘under investigation,’ but has not given an estimated time for a patch ahead of the open beta on August 28 and the full launch on October 23.
- The episode highlights how broad beta testing exposes low-spec rendering trade-offs and how social media amplification can quickly raise reputational pressure on developers.
