The development team at Danger Close and publisher Electronic Arts are advising gamers to download an important day one patch for their first-person shooter Medal of Honor: Warfighter, before playing it after the official United States launch.

The official notes from the two companies read: “This patch is for consoles as well as PC and includes a multitude of fixes for both the Single-Player and Multiplayer experience, and our team heartily encourages all Medal of Honor Warfighter players to download and install the patch as soon as they are able.”

The entire patch notes can be read at the official Electronic Arts help center.

The developers claim that the patch is designed to make the entire game experience better, when it comes to both single-player and multiplayer modes.

Gamers who play Medal of Honor: Warfighter will now be able to add friends and join new parties while actually playing the game and there are fixes linked to the difficulty level of the game and the way various weapons work.

Most modern games get a day-one patch, to fix all the problems that the development team has uncovered in the time stretch between the moment it has gone gold and the actual launch.

But the patch for Medal of Honor: Warfighter seems to be more important than usual, fixing a number of problems that should never have gotten through the quality assurance process.

The new game follows a story that features some of the characters introduced in the 2010 series reboot and Danger Close believes that the reworked multiplayer mode will provide strong competition for the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 from Treyarch and Activision.

Medal of Honor: Warfighter will be offered to European gamers on October 25 and those in the United Kingdom will get it one day later.
