Nope! Humble Bundle and HOLD OFF because they just announced the bundle with RTX cards so the game will be get keys sold on eBay and poo poo for $25 I bet. Stay tuned on that. I posted in discord but here’s the link too: https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-is-bundling-call-of-duty-modern-warfare-with-its-geforce-rtx-gpus/

Nvidia has started forcing you to redeem games through gforce experience and they won't work unless you have the correct type of card. E.g. you'll already need to have an rtx.

We’ll do a google doc for everybody to link up with each other too on discord and poo poo. List your names out and platform and all that jazz.

I know my friends back home are pumped because some of us moved to PC and some stayed on Xbox so we finally get to play together again.

what game modes are going to be in the beta

Last week was TDM, Dom, and HQ as mainstays with random modes cycled in and out daily. Next beta looks like it will likely have the Battlefield ripoff mode included in some capacity but I don't think it's confirmed.

I tried to go back to BLOPS 4 after the beta and I can't even do it. Just feels like total rear end by comparison. I'll still probably play Blackout some, but I just totally lost interest in the multi and I was sort of on a kick before the beta. Not that BLOPS gameplay is even bad I just prefer MW to such a ridiculous degree it completely soured me on it and I never want to touch it again I think.

I haven't played Modern Warfare because I'm an Xbox poor, but BlOps 4 has been pissing me off lately with the high TTK. I'm emptying magazines at 3 enemies and they turn round and gangrape me. Hopefully in MW I'd be able to kill them all before they know what's happening.

Is this game anything liked Ghosts? I hated that game.

:ducksiren: Call of Duty Big Beards and Betas FAQ: :ducksiren:

Two days remain.

The beta draws near for ALL to play. PS4 had theirs last week and it got a lot of praise. Hell, a lot more than Blops 4 got. This is the 69th iteration of Call of Duty to drop since 1992 so we are approaching an incredible milestone. Wow. Just wow.

As a gamer who doesn’t play video games, it’s important I share you up the knowledge I have gained as a guy who doesn’t game. Behold! The gospel of this beta:

When is the beta?

September 20th. 6PM PT. You will be able to preload. It’s not up yet. One day, it will be. Trust me.

It’s for all platforms. It’s free.

Should I play?

I’m not going to do the typical basic gamer answer of “you may like it you may not like it maybe and maybe not!”

Yes. You should. It’s free. It’s a blockbuster release. There’s gonna be a lot of goons playing. And you should try it so you can speak to if it’s a game you want or not.

So yes. Play the game about war. War is heck man.

But it’s gonna be $60...that’s like, the cost diapers and breakfast and gas and poo poo*

*i don’t mean combined. I mean individually. Diapers are $60. Breakfast is $60. Gas is 60. Yeah, poo poo is 60 too.

You and I both know you should think 5x over about spending $60 on a video game nowadays. Blops 4 was $40 one month after launch. Thank you Black Friday. GMG sold it before launch for $40.19 with codes. This game is about moving volume. It’s Activision. Do NOT drop $60. Unless you’re rich or got money to blow. Write Birdman or something and ask him to buy it for you. Let it ride.

Also, I’m gonna find two codes from Nvidia for $25 like I do with every Nvidia bundle and give them away on discord. I like helping people and doing good deeds because I work in a volatile industry and have SEEN SOME poo poo in my life. Helping goons, the best community, is fun.

TLDR: don’t spend $60 unless you got money to blow and/or have been saving all year for this moment.

yes but the community is gonna die in a month as always

If this didn’t have crossplay, and still had season passes you had to buy that segmented the community I would say you’re still wrong. Because it would be dead in 2 weeks actually.

This one’s gonna last. My friends I grew up with in the great state of Kentucky who play on Xbox are going to be able to play with me, a PC player. I used to double dip on the cod (fish) games but now I don’t. That’s pretty cool.

Also, if you can’t find people to play with, it’s on you. This thread, use it. The discord, use it. You got probably about 500 goons lurking this thread daily. The discord is 3500 ALL goons who are going to hear about this game (and all the others we play and talk about). Between the two places (and many other goon spots you’re going to find others playing in), you can be as solo or as immersive as you want. Make some friends. Friends are pretty decent. Discord link: https://discord.gg/kV2HaFf

Thread link: You’re in it. Turn on your monitor.

Any last words?

Throw some takes in here. Mix and mingle here. Pop in discord. Don’t be lovely to newbies who will be returning to the series. If I hear about it, I’m gonna snitch. I’m gonna tell on you. Suck on that poo poo player!!!

But real talk, can we get on with this beta already and see how this thing is? It’s shaping up to be pretty cool and good. I know a lot of goons who are wanting to return to the series after a long hiatus because of what they’ve seen and heard.

Download the beta this week. Lets try to have a good time.

We do workarounds for these things. I wouldn’t worry about that :)

Preload is up in 4 1/2 hours for PC. I got an email about it. They must have gotten the approval from Mr. Internet himself.

Gonna assume it’ll be up for consoles too.

The TTK in MW is like half of what BLOPs is. People drop much quicker.

Not getting it is probably a non issue for anyone itt, but if you play the beta and get to at least lvl 10 you get an exclusive gun in the final game. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/free-shotgun-available-for-call-of-duty-modern-war/1100-6469930/

I’m hoping there is because of the needed Activision/COD account but they haven’t indicated if that’s the case.

Every game since at least Black Ops 1/CoD Elite has had the ability to send your progression back to Activision. Remember during BLOPS 4 they had that "lifetime summary of your stats" webpage that would make a video after scraping your progress across like, half a dozen CoD games?

So I don't expect account progression across multiple platforms to be an issue *knocks on wood*.

Not at first. It wasn't until I really leveled up the pump that it started feeling good. But once I finally got it kitted out, oh man. It kicks rear end.

Somebody earlier asked if the game has “cross-save” for launch so they can play on either platform and continue their progress. The answer is no.

They did say they are looking into it though.

got the knowshon


Forgot to play last beta but just tried this one. Controls are tighter and no hyper jumping bullshit. Feels way better than BLOPS4 and which wasn’t that bad but nowhere as good as this.


Also I’m playing on PS4 but am shown as my Activision name instead of my PSN. If I double dip and also get it on PC later will all my unlocks carry over like Destiny?
