Oh nice, I kind of like staggered launches like this because it gives me time to complete the story beforehand.

Something I'm really hoping they'll address when they give us the cross-play details is how the timed exclusive PS4 content updates will affect cross-play. Lets say I'm on PS4 and a new map releases, will it just automatically disable cross-play for me and all other PS4 players so I can actually play the maps? What if I team up with a PC or XB1 player, will it just remove the new map from the map pool?

The SP is promising to be more authentic than ever, and controversial. Spec Ops seems like it will be very impressive (Rumoured to be somewhat open world, but even if it's not, it's better than boring zombies), and MP has all kinds of scale (2v2, 6v6, 10v10, 32v32). Plus a F2P BR mode.

pretty impressive as far as getting bang for your buck.

Roadmap is great and it's good to get dates, but what I really want to know is when they'll announce what you can buy with Call of Duty Bucks and if they plan to take a stance against Pay-To-Win

Absolutely loved the 2v2 beta a few weeks back. So I am really looling forward to the open beta next week. This is the most excited I have been for a COD game in years.

So if you pre order on PS4 you can play from Sep 12 to 23. God damn, I am salty as fuck, this is bullshit. Xbox players didn't even get the Alpha :(

Figured this is the best thread to post this in: some Beta leaks from TheGamingRevolution, who has proven to be very reliable when it comes to CoD leaks and Modern Warfare in particular https://twitter.com/TheGamingRevoYT
  • Week 1 (PS4 exclusive) level cap will be level 10
  • Quick Fix (a previously leaked perk which was not in the build during the reveal) will not be in the Beta
  • PS4 pre-load on the 10th at 10am if you pre-ordered through the PlayStation Store, 11am if you did so at a retailer. He doesn't mention timezones but I'm assuming it's PST as that's the timezone CoD always uses
  • XB1 and PC pre-load on the 18th, same times as the PS4 pre-load
  • Level cap to be increased to level 20 on the 19th or 20th, will be increased to 30 on the 21st. 30 will be the max in the Beta
  • Multiple playlist updates throughout the Beta
  • Ground War (32v32) will only be available on the 21st through the 23rd
  • 2x Weapon XP on select days so people can unlock attachments easier
  • "For weapon attachments: some require certain weapon level to equip, but for certain attachments once you have reached the required level, there will be an additional task to unlock, such as: "kill 50 enemies" so some attachments will have double unlocks"
  • Max party size of 6
  • No Specialist streaks and Specialist perks in the Beta
  • Beta will have 7-9 maps, 4 of those will be gunfight maps from the Alpha except for one. Main maps are Hackney Yard, Cave and Runner, the 10v10 map is called Raid and the 32v32 map is called Quarry. Aniyah Palace will NOT be in the Beta. There was also be 2 night variants
  • No Hardcore but there will be Tactical Realism. Lower health, no team-killing and some minor changes compared to Hardcore

How big is the file size on PC? I think I won't be able to download it in time.

Also, on PS4, will it be a different executable than the alpha?

File size hasn't been revealed yet but considering the Alpha was already over 30GB on PS4 you should expect it to be big. And yes, it will be a different client than the Alpha, if you still have the Alpha on your PS4 you can just delete it.

It's an open beta for all PS4 owners, right? Regardless of whether you pre-ordered or not.

I don't think so, below image suggest first two days are for early access

Both weeks of the beta have early access period for pre-order but then become open beta after 2 days.

Curious they're not doing 20v20.

Can't wait to try realism. All the gameplay I've seen of it looks great.

Very much looking forward to this. I was very impressed when I played the Alpha a couple weeks ago.

i haven't played cod in a long time but i hope this game has cool cosmetics that you can unlock by doing difficult things in game like beating the campaign on the hardest difficulty or the equivalent of that for MP.

Can't wait to finally get some info on Spec ops. Great memories of MW2 spec ops with a friend.

That all sounds great, thanks for posting the info.
A pre-load is a lifesaver, it took me forever to download the Alpha.

Yeah Spec-Ops honestly might have been my favorite mode of MW2 (looking back on it, what a package that game was). Looking forward to seeing how it's implemented here. The rumors make it sound pretty different from what it was in MW2, but it could be great. I just hope it has just as much variety.

I'm fully expecting it to be campy as shit due to the design choices. No mini-map, fast time to kill, mounting your gun.

I think so as well. I'm really worried since I play COD every year since MW and only Ghosts was truly a disappointment exactly for being too campy.

I hope the beta proves me wrong.

Missions separate from the main campaign that can be played either solo or through Co-Op. They were in Modern Warfare 2 and 3 before being abandoned for Zombies across the franchise.


One of the biggest mistakes in the series imo, every game should've had their own 3rd mode Instead of zombies every year.
