Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Open Beta will support a 32v32 warfare mode, called Ground War

The Open Beta phase for the PC version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare begins on September 19th. And today, Infinity Ward announced that it will feature a brand new game mode. Ground War is a new warfare mode that will support up to 64 players (32v32).

As Infinity Ward stated via an email.

“On Saturday, September 21, during weekend two of the Beta, we’ll be taking your multiplayer experience to the next level. Taking place on a new map, Karst River Quarry, you’ll get your hands on 32v32 warfare in a new mode, Ground War.”

The open beta phase for COD: MW will also feature a 2v2 Gunfight mode and a 6v6 squad combat. Not only that, but it will support cross-play between all platforms. This is something that a lot of gamers will appreciate, and we are really looking forward to experiencing it.

As we’ve already stated, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will be using Ray Tracing on the PC for enhancing its shadows. These ray tracing effects will be within both the single-player campaign and 2v2 Gunfight multiplayer mode. As such, PC gamers may get a taste of these RT effects in the upcoming open beta. Let’s not forget that this mode was shown with its Ray Tracing effects at Gamescom 2019. As such, its open beta build will most likely support them.

Lastly, it’s also worth mentioning that the PC version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will have uncapped framerates, FOV slider, advanced mouse settings, will support HDR and will allow players to remap all keys.

    1. That’s what I’m hoping. Battlefield f*cked itself, maybe it’s time for CoD to show what’s up for the first time in 10 years.

      1. Why what did they do I thought they were the go to for big multiplayer battles? I don’t play either series but am just interested.

          2. Ahh, DICE the developer just made their worst Battlefield to date, if you don’t count the Hardline spinoff.

            Battlefield 5 has been a mess since even before the release.

            They chose to f’ck WW2 over and instead make it a game about social politics which already angered a large portion of their fans. Instead of making the game feel authentic with proper uniforms / weapons / maps and / factions, it’s a mess with just the Britts whith the wrong uniform and race / gender, against Germany without the proper symbols, and making it seem like nazis only had white people.

            The game majorly lacks content, there’s not many maps, and to me, a long time veteran only 2-3 of those maps are ok.

            There’s not enough different weapons, and only a set few that is the “meta”.

            Not enough vehicles or any kind of proper customization like they promised on release, which is still “coming soon TM”

            All kinds of sh*t around that game. It’s just not a proper BF game and that’s why many hate it, including myself. It’s f*cking boring and the feel of Battlefield has been lost to identity politics.

          3. Wow that sounds horrendous I knew about the SJW nonsense from the controversy surrounding the trailer but was unaware of the rest.

          4. Yeah it’s just a f*kin mess, it’s been 10 months and the content is more or less the same, add the SJW bullsh*t on top of that and you got a game that many hate.

            And now at the same time, CoD is making a game for the first time in 10 years that could possibly dethrone Battlefield, with its new engine and large game modes with vehicles, proper PC features, gameplay changes, and optimization, I think a lot of BF fans are looking at CoD t deliver, including me.

            The last time I played and enjoyed a CoD game was back in MW2 which was awesome, and still my most played game on steam with 800 hours lol.

            But since then I’ve been a Battlefield guy, and I will happily switch to CoD if they can deliver, I’ve been waiting for them to man up for the past 10 years.

      1. No, I game on a 55″ LG C7 OLED. I wish I could afford to sell it and buy a C9, seeing as how Nvidia has said that those will get G-SYNC support, but I’m not able to right now.

        1. I wouldnt worry too much about that, those TVs are so expensive that a lot of people cant afford them, wait til black friday/cyber weekend and look of for good deals, maybe youll find a deal in your price range

          2. That’s how to do it. I just got the 50 inch toshiba fire tv so i can closet my ps4 and save room on my entertainment cabinet. I was really only using the ps4 for funimation, netflix, youtube etc. Got the 50 inch 4k dolby vision hdr tv for like $215 on Prime Day which was a great deal for that TV. Never buy anything at retail price lol

        2. Watch out for burn in we have just got it on ours from the bloody GMTV morning news which my wife has on in the mornings for about 20 mins.

          I’m mad as hell as I have nursed the bloody thing since we purchased it. Going to get in touch with LG but doubt they will be interested.

          1. I nursed mine as well, but I have a bit of burn in myself. It’s only noticeable if that portion of the screen has a solid matte color being displayed, such as the Windows shutting down screen, so I rarely ever notice it in a game. I’ve always had the screen shift option on, and run the pixel refresher once every couple of weeks. I use a slideshow desktop background, and move my icons every so often, as well as turning the TV off if I’m walking away for an extended period of time. As much as this thing is a pain to take care of, when I see something in Dolby Vison mixed with the perfect black of an OLED, I really don’t want anything else.

          2. Same here did all the same things. Agreed it does look stunning and probably the best we’ll see. However, I wouldn’t buy another purely due to the amount of hassle unless they gauranteed no burn in or covered it. We should be able to watch any normal tv without fear of burn in.

      1. I don’t know. I just know that I want it. That’s why I have my fingers and toes crossed. We really need more games with Dolby Vision support.

        1. It would be great to see Dolby Vision in games. It’s the only reason I brought the Apple TV. DV is so much better than HDR 10.

    2. How much are you getting paid for making that same comment and then deleting it lol? The second you get criticized, you delete your comment and make a new one, nice fu*king shilling. EDIT: Oh of COURSE your activity is “private” so nobody can go through your shilling history.
