Makes my decision easier so! I'll get them second hand in a few years if I really want.

€230 with Gamestop. I'm tempted, still have the originals from MW2 still working with the original batteries! But that's a lot of money...

Have you used the originals?

I'd have to have a few uses for them myself to justify paying that. Fishing, dogging etc

Potential-Monke · 07-08-2019 11:59am

Yes, not for anything specific, but they do work. Black/white with no IR LED's on, less coverage, green/black with 6 IR LED's, can see further. Depth perception is gone though. Good craic! But, still just a gimmick. They're nothing special, but give you an idea of what actual ones would be like.

Some special announcement about MW live at Gamescom on Monday night, 7pm GMT.

There is an open alpha for 2 v 2 starting on friday at 6pm, PS4 only.

Potential-Monke · 22-08-2019 1:02pm

Yup, I believe you can pre-load at some stage today

gimli2112 · 22-08-2019 5:45pm

I reckon at some point this weekend I'll be angrier than I have been since around 2011

Just 'purchased' the Alpha, currently downloading!

There was a time that would have worried. No longer! Thank you Gb fibre!

refusetolose · 22-08-2019 8:28pm

I've read in a few comments (nothing official) that the 37 GB might contain some of the beta too so best not delete it when your done

F1ngers · 22-08-2019 10:18pm

"Searching for match", nothing happening though.

Potential-Monke · 22-08-2019 11:29pm

Working now. Only 1 game played, seems solid.

Edit: had a good few games. Very fluid, guns feel meaty, movement is good, overall it's looking like a return to the good days of MW.

Ok, now that I'm not on mobile, I can write a bit more.

The gunplay is very solid, bit early to say the best yet, but each gun does feel and handle differently. While the maps are small and perfect for this kind of game, it doesn't give me a good idea of what the normal MP will be like. Speaking of, need to get back to GameStop to get my beta code. Looking forward to that.

Customisation is going to be epic. Even though you're given the guns to use in 2v2, they change every second round, and you can see the differences between, what I believe to be, different variations of the same gun. It's still limited, but so far I've used a pistol, shotgun, 'Terminator' shotgun, AR, Ak47, an LMG, rocket launcher, molotov, smoke and stun grenades, and normal grenades. All lovely to use.

Movement is on point. It's fluid, fast, feels natural. Again, hard to tell exactly with the limited movement/space in 2v2, but I've no doubt it will be good. Looking forward to playing a bit more over the weekend, but my honest opinion so far is that this will be an amazing game. The hype is building!

Potential-Monke · 27-08-2019 5:01pm

Just went back to Gamestop to get my Beta code for the PS4, so happy and can't wait to try it!

Potential-Monke · 28-08-2019 3:22pm

Sounds good, but as a commenter stated below it, as long as there aren't unfairly balanced guns, as that is what most CoD kids do, pick the OP gun and nothing else.

I've always though, in games where there's a vast selection of guns in MP, that once you reach the max level, it should be blocked out until you bring everything else to the max. This would literally force people to change up. Ta fook if they're giving out about their K/D ratio, I'd actually love if they removed that stat. I'm sure a lot of people would be annoyed, but it would be fair on everyone then. I've no doubt those who are elite level with SMGs would struggle with LMGs, as a lot of them don't use anything but SMGs.

I start with ARs or LMGs and usually leave SMGs till last/not at all. And it annoys me greatly when someone can kill me from a decent distance using an SMG. Just doesn't appear realistic imo. Another factor is the gun type could be linked to your overall health, ie: have an SMG but less health, or use an LMG with more health. This is probably why I'm not the person to make these decisions!

And running around with a stupid melee weapon should result in a health of 5% of normal.

Any Ps4 folk looking to get a head start on downloading the beta it's on the store now. If you pre-ordered disk version you can see your code at the website above, think they're due to be emailed anytime too

When I went back to GameStop to get my code they never checked that I'd pre-ordered. Probably staff dependent, but worth chancing your arm

Potential-Monke · 12-09-2019 8:21pm

Alrighty, have about an hour of this played, and it's back to brilliance. This is Modern Warfare as you remember it. Have all weekend to play it, so will have a better opinion when the beta is over, but this will being CoD back to the forefront.

johndoe99 · 12-09-2019 10:21pm

Modern Warfare back at its best, it's been a long long time since a COD game has kept my attention. Sniper rifles have been improved too. Exhausted now after 4 continuous hours.

Tilikum17 · 15-09-2019 6:14pm

Surprised there’s so little chat about it.

Watched about 10 minutes on Twitch, then ordered. Gameplay looks really smooth gun sounds are amazing!

Maps look awful.

johndoe99 · 15-09-2019 9:58pm

i got this for €10 in Gamestop. Traded in a game during the gamescon weekend. Roll on October.

Are we playing against mouse and keyboard players? Saw a fella with a mouse symbol on time today?

Possibly, my kb + m is greyed out, I imagine controller would be greyed out if I use kb + m.

Enjoying the beta, looking forward to xplay next weekend.
Interesting how many parties will be kb + m.

Thoroughly enjoying Realism, if they took out all the warnings(enemy UAV) etc it would improve it even more.

JimBurnley · 16-09-2019 5:53pm

I usually prefer single player but enjoyed the beta, can definitely see me sinking some hours into the MP after the campaign is done

When should you expect your code if you bought one for the Xbox?

They usually email straight away with a code if not then contact them. Just got a 1 month gold sub off them today, it was sent immediately.

When you purchase you get sent the invoice which has a download link to codes.

Yes, they gave me a code. I put that code into the call of duty site.

Should of I have gotten another code off them (call of duty)? Or should that come the day of the beta?

Same for everyone so, You redeem on 'call of duty' and wait till they roll out. No idea why they did it like that very confusing!

claiva · 17-09-2019 2:29pm

how does the beta code process work if you have pre-ordered through the xbox dashboard then ?
and then how does the guy that I game share with get access to the beta ?

That may not be possible with the beta.
None of my other accounts on my PS4 had access to the beta over the weekend.

iLikeWaffles · 18-09-2019 10:49pm

I got an email alright but there is no beta code in it. Had to visit callofduty website where it was hiding, hit redeem code, it shows the code there. Dafuq!?

if you are logged in this link should get you there:
https://profile.callofduty.com/promotions/redeemCode/mw-preorder

37.5 GB btw

To be more clear that link will take you to where you redeem the code to get the beta code. If you already redeemed the code for the redeem code then the Beta code shows here saying you already redeemed a code.

Snake Plisken · 19-09-2019 2:31pm

For those on PS4 there is a 4.28Gb update to install for weekend 2 of the beta

JimBurnley · 19-09-2019 4:32pm

Anyone reaching level 10 on the beta will receive bonus Hammer Shotgun when game is released in October

Tilikum17 · 19-09-2019 6:56pm

That circular minimap sucks big time. Way too small and doesn't get adjusted to the safe area. Gets in the way most of the time.

Dialogue volume is way too low for the flat mix/IW mix have not tried the rest of the settings.

Capture radius for domination is stupid small, have to be practically on top of the flag to cap.

iLikeWaffles · 19-09-2019 11:32pm

18 seconds or so on a UAV thought it was 30?!

Loving it so far. I think locking on to air support (UAV) is a bit too quick and spawns are a bit dodgy right now. Haven't tried dom yet.

Spawns are dodgy, locking on is fine 2 seconds. Shotguns are trash, point blank headshot and I got hit markers (player AFK)

The PILA against players is crazy!

iLikeWaffles · 20-09-2019 12:55am

I love and hate how the perks are balanced.

Can't find a sensitivity that suits me. Is there an ADS sensitivity on PC?

Right now its way quicker to take down a chopper gunner with only gun fire and not the launcher. First one didnt last p1ssing time.

That's probably because the PILA takes about a week to reload. There's a perk for faster reload on launchers.
