Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare Won’t Have Prestige System

Activision has confirmed that the upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will be swapping out its longstanding Prestige system in favour of something entirely new.

Sharing the news on its official blog, Activision writes that Modern Warfare will have Enlisted Ranks (1-55) which can be progressed through by completing matches and various challenges. Doing so will unlock a range of perks, Killstreaks, equipment and upgrades.

“Rank up your weapons individually though the weapon progression system. Gain experience for each weapon to earn attachments and base camouflage patterns, and complete camo challenges to complete camo sets.”

Speaking of Seasons within the game, Activision adds: “Begin your Season of Officer Ranks, where you will receive an Officer Challenge at each rank leading up to 5-Star General (Rank 100). Completing each challenge rewards a ribbon. Earning 10 ribbons awards an Emblem, and all 100 ribbons gives you an even more badass Emblem.”

At the end of a Season, Activision has confirmed that the Officer Rank is reset, though Enlisted Rank will not be.

As for your basic player XP, that can be earned “through playing the game, completing Daily Challenges, Officer Challenges, Camo Challenges, and Challenge Missions; multi-step objectives that offer even more rewards upon completion.”

Activision promises a “number of seasons packed with tons of free content.”
