Call of Duty Modern Warfare replaces the ‘Prestige’ system

3.9
You won’t have any of your functions or items re-locked in the new Modern Warfare – there’s a whole new leveling system.

A new post on the Activision Blog details changes made to the progression system in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and how the Prestige system has been replaced. The new system is designed to give players more rewards, and to keep them satisfied and leveling up without needing to reset.

The usual 1-55 levels are your ‘Enlisted Ranks’, but the Seasonal Officer Ranks are what you’ll be pumping your XP into once you hit 55. Once you hit the 55th rank – Command Sergeant Major V – you’ll arrive at Officer Rank 1, which will give you 100 new rankings to progress through per season.

Going through the Officer Ranks is a lot like going through the Enlisted Ranks, in that you do it by earning XP. You also get Officer Challenges as you level up, though, and you earn more XP through completing them, which gives you seasons ribbons that can be exchanged for seasonal emblems. Getting through all 100 levels in a season unlocks a weapon blueprint and an animated emblem. Phew.

You’ll also be able to earn XP for ‘Challenge Missions’, multi-step objectives that are accessed and activated in the Barracks menu. Weapons will also have, on average, 50 attachments to unlock, so there’s a whole bunch of stuff to earn in Modern Warfare.

The game releases for PC, PS4 and Xbox One on October 25. That’s this week!

They are trying to make sure people play the game through out the year, I mean I didn't mind prestiges because you didn't have to if you didn't want to. But with this I feel like if you miss a season because your busy your screwed.

I don't know how i feel about this. I mean it's great that they are trying something new but why fix something that wasn't broken.

ZTG Kind of a weird system and isn't exactly something I would welcome because it doesn't seem to be as good as the prestige system



naterocks500 Let's hope Activision doesn't manage to add some form of mtx in these systems after the first few months. (What I mean is have ways to buy the end tier of progression like BO4)

Also, calling it now that someone is going to say "Can't wait for this!" or "Love me some COD"


People love to devote their spare time in spamming on forum posts and news posts to get badges and stuff.


Well saying this clearly shows how you just have no idea about how things work lol...


I mean, he is pretty much right. Up until recently there were people spamming every news post with random low-effort sentences like "I love me some COD" on a post about the microtransactions in said COD. Sometimes, the person never even read anything but the article title, i.e. "I think I'd use the touchscreen first" on a post about the mobile version of a game removing controller support.

All of that nonsense to boost post count, lmao

I'm not sure how I feel, but I like that I can keep progressing over and over, although on CoD I'm not sure, getting max rank was cool but then you're like ok, what now.. I get it if there's still camos and stuff you can get then I accept this, whilst it may be weird always down foro a change once in a while. can't complain about that.

I like getting to the max level and prestige but I also hate having to unlock things 11+ times. I'm not against this system. I get to keep my stuff and get levels every season. Hope the seasons have good unlocks. Is any of that going to cost money? Like, a premium tier like other battle passes? I hope not after it being a $60 game, but I have no idea since they took lootboxes out.

Seems a bit weird... We'll see how it plays out in a month. If your icon doesn't change after Officer Rank 1 then thats a dud!

MazePosted:

Hmmm... where have wee seen this before?
I don't like the idea personally, I've always loved the prestige system and feel like it belongs in CoD since its one thing they've stuck with all these years, no matter how much the series has changed.
