The only thing that can bring down Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is the microtransaction system

As we have made it through the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Multiplayer Reveal, this game does have the most content and variety of content in it at launch that Call of Duty has not seen in a few years.

The reveal on August 1 showcased that Infinity Ward is bringing the new 2v2 Gunfight experience, standard 6v6 mode, a new 10v10 mode, a 20v20 large map mode, and Ground War with more than 100 players.

There is a mode for anyone to play for those who want to experience different player counts, different map styles, and more in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

Activision confirmed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will not have a Season Pass, and all post launch maps will be free for everyone. This is the first time in Call of Duty history that post launch DLC Maps will not be a paid thing.

The Season Pass in Call of Duty started in 2011 with Call of Duty: Elite with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and since then, there has always been a $50 Season Pass included with the game. Majority of the gaming industry had moved on from paid DLC a few years ago, but Activision decided to live in the past up until this year.

And, the company has confirmed that there will be Cross-Play in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, bringing together PS4, Xbox One, and PC players together so that all players can join into any lobby and play with any Call of Duty: Modern Warfare player.

All of the above sounds incredible. Call of Duty offering a variety of ways to play the game; Activision eliminating the Season Pass; and Cross Play support.

There’s one thing that can completely bring down this year’s Call of Duty game: the microtransaction system.

Call of Duty has had a rough history with the microtransaction system. Microtransactions, MTX for short, were introduced to Call of Duty with Black Ops 2 with the ability to buy camos and items separately. With Advanced Warfare, Activision introduced the ability to buy Supply Drops, one of the most controversial MTX systems in the gaming industry today.

Infinity Ward games, however, have usually had a fair MTX system overall. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare did feature Supply Drops and stat changing weapon variants, but the studio did allow new weapons to be unlocked via challenges and the Season Pass. Infinity Ward also had Collections and ways to break down items to earn credits to continue to build other variants.

But, many fans are worried about what Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will have as this year’s game, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, has had one of the worst systems that Call of Duty has ever seen. Back in May, Activision executives said that they were “testing” out new MTX systems in Black Ops 4 for the “the current game” and the “future” which led many players to wonder if Black Ops 4’s system would come into Modern Warfare.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 has one of the worst systems that Call of Duty has ever seen before: weapons locked behind loot boxes, $30 hammers, camos locked in the shop only, and systems that makes it seem like it’s a free to play game, versus a $60 game with $50 Season Pass.

The MTX system is the one thing that can bring down Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Modern Warfare seems to be one of the most content rich Call of Duty game the franchise has seen in years; multiple different play-style modes, maps designed for each of the modes, a full campaign, and a Spec-Ops mode.

How Activision determines the MTX system in Modern Warfare will determine how the next year goes, and we hope that the company has learned from their mistakes to make a better game for the fans.

Players can create custom loadouts for Gunfight in Private Matches

While Gunfight in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare features set classes in the public match settings, players have been asking Infinity Ward how Gunfight mode would work in Custom Matches in the game.

Infinity Ward MP Designer has responded to comments on Reddit by confirming that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s Gunfight mode classes can be edited and feature custom loadouts when playing the mode in Private Matches.

The standard settings will be everyone has the same loadout. We have a lot of options for this mode, including options in custom match to pick your loadouts if you want to play that way.

Players will be able to make a wide selection of classes to play with friends in Custom Lobbies with Gunfight mode.

In public matches, the classes are preset and swap out every two rounds. Weapons shown in gameplay thus far have ranged from a pistol to snipers to rocket launchers. There’s a ton of variety and variations that can be done.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will have matchmaking based on input device

Infinity Ward’s MP Design Director, Joe Cecot, has told Dualshockers in an interview during this week’s reveal event that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s Cross Play will be based on input based matchmaking.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was announced to support Cross Play between PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. And now, we’ve got confirmation that the matchmaking will be based on input device. If you’re a keyboard and mouse player, you will be matched against other keyboard and mouse players.

If you’re a controller player, you will be matched against other controller players, but also have the option to opt-in to matchmaking with all players in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

 “We’re going to be matchmaking by peripheral, so if you’re a keyboard player you’re going to play with other keyboard players. But, if you’re a console player and you’re playing on a gamepad you can actually opt in…We also don’t let you change your controller or peripheral mid-match, so once you’ve chosen it, it’s locked in.”

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will have an Open Beta in September, and the second Weekend of the Open Beta will support Cross Play between the platforms. More info on the beta is available here.

High Moon Studios also working on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

As part of the announcement of multiplayer reveal for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, the company’s press release for the game has revealed that High Moon Studios is also assisting on the development of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

This is one of the first times High Moon Studios has been directly named as a supporting developer for a Call of Duty title since Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. The studio developed the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of that game back in 2014.

Since then, High Moon Studios has been primarily focused on developing Destiny alongside Bungie for Activision. The studio worked on many expansions and season updates for Destiny with Bungie. Bungie and Activision relationship ended earlier this year when Activision and Bungie decided to go their own ways.

It was not clear what High Moon Studios would work on after Destiny, but now it appears they are going to be a support studio for Call of Duty titles.

The press release notes that development is lead by Infinity Ward, with Beenox working on the PC version, and Raven Software and High Moon Studios assisting across the board.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is scheduled for release globally October 25th on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The title features a fully-optimized PC version, developed in partnership with Beenox, which will be available exclusively on Battle.net®, Blizzard Entertainment’s online gaming platform. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is published by Activision, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ: ATVI) with development led by award-winning developer, Infinity Ward, and additional development support from Beenox, High-Moon Studios and Raven Software.

Modern Warfare MP features a new Ground War mode with more than 100 players

As part of the press release for MP, Infinity Ward has revealed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will have a 100 player Ground War mode when it launches in October.

Players can jump into new play spaces that redefine Call of Duty multiplayer, from quick-action, close-quarters 2 vs. 2 experiences in Gunfight, traditional 6 vs. 6 multiplayer gameplay, modes that support 10 vs. 10 and 20 vs. 20 firefights, along with high-player count maps and combat, such as the all-new Ground War, an epic large-scale mode supporting more than 100-players. And, that’s just the beginning for Modern Warfare fans.

Activision has not stated that this is a Battle Royale, but rather it appears to be just a new MP mode for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

The studio has showcased gameplay today of the 2v2, 6v6, 10v10, and 20v20 as part of their stream today, but has not shown the 100 player mode as of now.
