20 players per side with 20 AI bots per side


I so wish that city was destructible in Invasion, would be great

I dont play COD so much anymore, and admit I'm a WL and KD whore. I dont think I've ever had a KD less than 1.8 and a WL less than 60% in any COD. And thats even playing as a lone wolf 90% of the time as opposed to partying up with buds.

But if Invasion mode is this big, I might just say fuck it and just have a blast in big battle modes.

What's wrong with camping, or as I call it, tactical positioning? If you were in a real battle, would you run around hopping and sliding and quick-scoping everywhere? I enjoy setting traps and taking out the hopping goofballs.
So true.

Its amazing how many kills you can get killing the same guy over and over again. The guy is smart enough to go after a camper knowing where he is, but instead of switching tactics or throwing a smokebomb or shooting an RPG to flush him out, most just do a beeline relying purely on eyesight and reflexes.

I always have a few classes with smokebomb as my grenade. You never know if you'll run into a good camper or sniper whose picking people off.

Im guessing they wont add any remastered maps from MW2 because that would be a really cool thing to do, fans would love it, which means its highly unlikely

Invasion is godly. Wish there was no, or less AI though.

Also how the FUCK do you upgrade weapons in this? Ive been murdering people with the same weapon and never unlock anything new. I just want a RDS

I absolutely LOVE that the game acknowledges playing the objective over just kills. Not that the 40-kill guy didn’t help us, but I was key to victory.

A lot of stuff is capped and/or locked for the beta. I have seen some players with RDS though.

Warzone alone has Quarry and Highrise and probably others. Not to mention MW 2019 had a plethora of CoD4, MW2, and even MW3 maps. I 100% guarantee we will get MW2 maps in this game, and they will be free even if you don’t buy the season passes.

I think Sub Base is verrrry likely.

I've heard you have to use different guns to unlock certain things for certain guns. Example.. In order to unlock a RDS on a AK74U you have to kill with an M4... What?
 
Well I guess they really didn't do a thing when it comes to footstep volume, did they? Why even tell people you're going to fix the stupidest thing about your game, and then not do it?

The MW2 maps are integrated into the new Warzone map

For instance Terminal is part of the map

Is anyone on series x getting this weird flicking on the kill cams and result screens?
Its really bad on Series X for me as well and when brightness is cranked to max on my monitor it hurts the eyes.


When does beta start for Xbox without pre-order? I can't find it on the store, is it available for preload?
The 24th its open for everyone and the only way to preload it prior (that I know of) is to search for the beta on the phone app and have it download to your console from there

Thanks, I'm downloading it right now.

I think it runs well apart from that!

Oh and there seems to be some audio missing or cut off early. Like there’s no audio when I see the ranking up screen appear at the end of a match.

It’s a beta though, previous experience with cod betas suggests they’ll fix this all up in time for release.

yeah it does run really nice outside that flickering

Any impressions of the PC version?
Runs like butter but crashes a ton.

One good thing about the cross gen bollocks is the scalability of games. My pal was playing on a 1050ti and was hitting 60 at 1080p and it still looked half decent.

Love what ive played so far cant wait for the full release.

Poor visibility, loud footsteps, no dead silence as a perk, minimap doesn't show gunshot and a brutal SBMM implementation makes this game zero fucking fun to play unless I want to camp. Which I obviously don't, because it's fucking call of duty.

This camping talk is really overdone, people are not really camping significantly more/less than in other COD's.

Footsteps are silent if you walk slow, seems fine to me.

What I do find annoying is that I keep joining matches that are in progress, even after finishing a match I join a new one that is already in progress.

Definitely had some crashes myself. I wouldn't say a ton, but definitely happens. It has always been in the lobby for me thankfully.
Other than that, runs really well.
Think i had about 8 CTD's over 7 hours.

No dramas im sure it'll be sorted for launch its a "beta" after all.

Yep as others above have said Ive not found campers to be an issue,like at all. Sure ill take up a tactical position when required but usually just shoot and move, making my way around the map, not like a headless chicken.
