Modern Warfare Will Support More Than 100 Players in Ground War

4
Infinity Ward is planning to offer bigger multiplayer modes than ever before in their reimagining of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

Infinity Ward is pushing more than 100 players in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s returning Ground War game mode. The mode and maps will be vastly different in scope when compared to the more condensed 12 and 20-player game modes. On top of that, other modes will consist of 40 players as well as 64.

What’s most interesting about this new take on Ground War is the fact that it actually offers a higher player count than Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s battle royale mode, Blackout. The fact that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will offer cross-play between all of its available platforms seems to imply that, with the inclusion of all these new modes, Infinity Ward is trying to win over fans of every type of shooter, both large and small-scale. As of right now, Infinity Ward says that they’re still playtesting 100-players so no footage of Ground War at this scale exists just yet.

Infinity Ward gave fans their first look at the multiplayer in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. While the game is still rooted in the systems and mechanics that longtime fans have come to know and love, Infinity Ward is making some noticeable changes to the overall multiplayer offerings. That’s to be expected though considering the weight the name Modern Warfare has in the Call of Duty series and first-person shooters in general.

With cross-play in mind, Infinity Ward has said that they’ll be making the PC version of the game run at an uncapped frame rate. Console players who are worried about the competitive nature of PC players should put those fears aside as the PS4 and Xbox One version will include an aim assist mechanic for fairer competition.

For more on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, you can read our preview of the game’s multiplayer. Fans will be able to get access to the game themselves when the first beta goes live in September.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will launch for PC, PS4, and Xbox One on October 25.

Daniel Over 100 players in a single match, i thought having 16-18 was alot never mind 100. Cod is getting crazy.


have you not played battlefield? its a 64player game which cod is borrowing the player count plus they are also borrowing the player count of pubg and what not.

ot so far the game is very unstable for 10v10 and 20v20 so their work would need to be pumping alot of crunch to meet the 10/25 dead line

Guess you never played battlefield lol


Nope not got into battlefield, I have Battlefield V and Battlefield 1 but not played them yet lol. oh right didn't know cod was doing that.


Isn't black ops 4 have 100 on a map?


That's in Blackout which is the battle royale. Most game modes it's 5v5 and some have 6v6. Ground War was a gamemode back in earlier CoDs that have been left out for the most part in recent games where it was 9v9 for 18 total players. Now it's going to be 100 total in a ground war match, which is usually Domination, TDM and Kill Confirmed. Domination is probably also going to take some inspiration from Battlefield where it becomes Extended Domination and instead of 3 flags, will probably 5-7 flags since 3 flags with what I assume is 50v50 is just a huge snowball effect.
