I really don't get why suppression fire is in this. Seem like it would just ruin the pace of the game. And 10 attachment, lol. Will be terribly balanced.
First weekend is pre-orders only, second weekends is open for everyone on PS4/PS5.
Pretty sure the old Amazon trick will work for this weekend's session as well.
There is in the UK and I've just got an email from Amazon to expect my code soon probably tomorrow.
I'm just not convinced by the destructible environments in multiplayer. I don't think it really adds anything to Call of Duty. I think I might be very oldschool in my thinking but I just have a much stronger preference for the static maps.
Yea US has nothing as far physical editions. Digital gets you early access to the beta.
Those pieces will be destroyed in the first 30 seconds. Just like if there was a lever to hit in the treyarch games people would hit it immediately, they can't help themselves.
I am confident you'd get access, but how it would work - if you'd get a code emailed, or if you can just download the beta app and have access via your PSN account - I don't know. They are heavily promoting it on PSN though, both the game and beta access so it's definitely one way you can go.
I mean, Amazon says early access to the beta on the product detail page?
I'm North American as well.
I took that screenshot myself. The Product Description line appears directly underneath the "Have a Question?" prompt.
Okay now I see. My mistake. Pre order bonus are usually on the top of the page.
Am I understanding this combat pacing thing correctly? They have 6v6/10v10/20v20 modes? And each category has the same modes but with different player counts? So you can do 10v10 SND?
That can't be right? Lol I'm trying to figure what the big deal about what this is.
Edit: huh. So I think it is? The idea of 20v20 SND is insane. Imagine 19 people spectating you.

I did, but it didn't work when I tried to redeem it on the COD site lol.
Noticed this in the Alpha too but all the weapons still sound like cap guns, a Sledgehammer signature. Bleh.
Yeah. You can play any mode with any of the player counts. I have to admit. That is cool. But I have to wonder, wouldn't the player count be spread thin? That's already a lot of modes that are separated even further due to combat pacing. Idk. Maybe that's just me underestimating the population.
I preordered online and didn't receive anything yet. How did you receive the code?
I know it's kinda stretching but I really wish you could advance your battle pass with these alphas and demos. I only have limited time to play and I only played 1 round of champion hill because I felt the urge to play CW instead so that my time went towards the BP. Bought last seasons but didn't have time to finish it.
also interesting idea with battle pacing. I know I found shipment a little stupid at first in MW19, but damn did that map and frantic twitch gameplay quickly grow on me. Will be curious to see if they can really get that shipment feeling with every map with battle pacing. Should also be great for grinding missions, as shipment was.

Can AAA gaming ever not be cliche, recurring trash? Not that I'd expect any different from Activision, the worst of all big publishers (in so many different ways).
same here. im about to cancel and just pre-order from best buy at this point
I purchased from Best Buy and didn't receive a code. I was just on a chat w/ support and they assured me I will receive it. Perhaps codes are just late?

damn, thats great, I figured it should be pretty easy for them to implement this. Since the BP already progresses across 3 IPs, but I didn't think anyone would bother or care to implement it. Thanks for the info!
Same here. Some people on reddit are reporting they've gotten theirs, so hopefully it's just a short while longer while the system spits all of the codes out

That's actually really cool. I'm not sure I recall any game ever doing that.
Eh... Refunding stuff on PSN is always a really iffy thing. I'd not do that just for beta access.
The alpha was entirely dedicated to their new mode (Champion Hill) while the beta is their traditional multiplayer only. So it`s two different things and you`ll probably need to download the beta separately.
It'd be easier to just find a site that does on-dispatch payments and is advertising the early access beta (like Amazon) and order/cancel it there.

This is very nice.
Amazon has completely flaked it seems, and looking at other sources it seems like a nightmare to get the code out of them going through customer service. Having been on the customer service side, I don't even want to bother them for this , so I ended up just doing another pre-order from Best Buy and got an email within 5 minutes with the code. I thought Best Buy charged at the moment you pre-order, but apparently that's (no longer?) the case as nothing has actually come across my card. Hopefully the cancellation process doesn't hit any snags, but I've never had any issues with Best Buy in that past in that regard.
Kind of curious to leave my Amazon order open at this point to see when/if I ever actually get the code from them.

Thanks for the heads up. Prolly go the BB route too.
Also, from their site:
According to Best Buy policy, when you place your pre-order they'll authorize your form of payment with your bank, which results in a temporary authorization hold. After a few business days, the hold should be automatically released and the funds returned to your account. Shortly before release day as your order begins final processing for shipment or store pickup, they'll reauthorize your form of payment, resulting in another hold. Once your order ships or becomes ready for store pickup they'll then collect payment. Please note that pre-orders placed using PayPal are processed differently, and are charged immediately upon placing your pre-order.
