According to a blog post by the Infinity Ward Community Manager, Robert Bowling, the feature patch for COD4 didn't run into any problems in it's encounter with the Microsoft certification demons. He reports that if we're all lucky (and if he gets some work done) the new feature update could go live before the weekend. However like an experienced community manager, he add the caveat that things are never set, and that by no means is the patch "guaranteed" to be online before week's end.
Other than that news, the post contains some talk on COD4's DLC, which is promised to have some "special treat for loyal COD4 players." What that means is anyone's guess at the moment, but Robert also promises that we'll be seeing some screens and a video clip of the new DLC soon. Here's hoping that the Infinity Ward guys can get that patch out before all the weekend players hit the tubes.
