A new Battle Royale has arrived in Call of Duty Modern Warfare, “Warzone” which is also playable for free without even having the basic software. All you have to do is download the Call of Duty Warzone game which is an independent version of MW and available on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. CoD Warzone wants to be more elaborate and more focused on team play than the previous “Battle Royale” that we discovered in Black Ops 4.
If you have recently tried the "Warzone" experience, you must have realized that under its "the surviving team won" areas, the developers and creatives of Infinity Ward have introduced certain game mechanics that can be quite confusing the first few times. In this sense, we have prepared a survival guide for you with several tips and tricks that will certainly be useful if you keep them in a corner of your mind during your different games.
Tip 1 – The Gulag is a second chance to get back into the game, take advantage of it!
In Call of Duty Warzone, you are dragged by force to the Gulag when you get killed by another player… A prison where all those who failed once face off in an ultimate 1v1 fight for survival. When you arrive at the Gulag, you can see other players fighting in the central arena. You have the possibility to fight with the other arrivals or to decide to wait your turn wisely. When it's your turn to enter the arena, you receive randomly chosen equipment and weapons and must survive a confrontation with another player to be redeployed on the Battle Royale map. But be careful, around you, other players can throw stones at you from the cells which can give you the impression that your opponent has shot you or landed a melee blow. Don't be distracted by the throwing stones!
In the Gulag, there are different ways to win, you can eliminate the opposing player, capture the flag that appears in the center of the room after a few minutes or even find a pacifist path with the player opposite. Indeed, if two prisoners of the Gulag refuse to fight then they will both be redeployed on the MAP of the Battle Royale. If in any case you are not the winner of the Gulag, you can always wait to be revived by one of your teammates by indicating the nearest revive beacon. Note however that your teammate in question MUST have $4500 on him to request your redeployment.
Tip 2 – Use the marker system to communicate with your teammates:
If you've ever played Battle Royale Apex Legends, you must know how handy the pop-up marker system is for communicating with other teammates, especially when you're not using voice chat to talk to them. With Call of Duty Warzone, the Infinity Ward teams have taken over this system. Clearly, you can mark any object you find on the ground, place a marker to indicate to your teammates that you are heading in that direction or signal the enemy presence. This Ping system can be used by pressing a single key, so exploit it as much as possible for better team play.
Tip 3 – Quickly land on the map or traverse a long distance by parachute:
When the time comes for you to jump out of the plane to land on the MAP, you and your team choose a destination location… IF the plane is heading in the right direction, you can wait before jumping to picket down and therefore land quickly. But if your team has chosen a location far from the plane's path, then this tip will come in very handy! When you begin your descent from the plane to your destination, deploy your parachute and close it immediately, your character will draw their handgun and you will gain a big speed boost that will allow you to cross long distances without any problem. Abuse this technique by continuously opening and closing your parachute to traverse long distances across the map.
Tip 4 – use supply stations and coordinate for a tactical drop marker request:
When exploring Verdansk, you often collect wads of cash by opening loot boxes and scavenging for gear. This money will be very useful if you take the time to open your card to go to the nearest refueling stations. These stations are a good way to get various bonuses... For $3000 you can for example get a gas mask that will allow you to survive a few seconds in the deadly gas without your health gauge being affected, you can request a self-revive kit or even redeploy a member of your team who lost a Gulag encounter.
Think about it, Supply Stations are very important in CoD Warzone. Better, if you can coordinate with the other members of your team, you can from the first minutes of a game go down to a supply station and transfer all the money of the members of the team to only one person so that he requests a "tactical drop marker", which will allow all party members to choose full custom gear!
Tip 5 – Find contracts scattered around the map and exploit them:
Contracts can be found all around the map and it is usually enough to activate them and reach the objective before the time runs out to be rewarded with money. But even if you don't complete contracts, there are still benefits to be gained from activating them. Some of these contracts will lead you straight to a crate filled with loot while a Tracking contract will allow you to find out the approximate location of an enemy squad. Rather practical if you want to set an ambush or on the contrary at all costs avoid the conflict while waiting to have better equipment on you.
Tip 6 – Get some kills in the pre-game waiting area to level up your weapons:
When you are deployed in the training area before the Battle Royale match starts, you will receive a random weapon. Hasten to kill other players to level up your weapon. This weapon progression also affects multiplayer, so why not? Especially since it is quite easy to chain a few frags at this time.
