[b]The Firing Range: [/b]This returns with the familiar three-dummy corridor to practice in. Bring in any Loadout, swapping weapons, modifications, and your Perks (Vest, Gloves, Boots and Gear) while you practice. The usual shelving and bars allow you to mount and fire at different heights. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/ba547d1d52ac2377d70674a511ec91020630edd8.jpg[/img] [b]Private Matches (Training and Benchmark): [/b]As ever, Private Matches are a great way to look through (and tweak) all the game settings for every type of mode, and they allow you to explore the available maps. In addition, expect a [b]Training Course[/b] where you can learn basic movements and combat skills as you navigate one of the launch Core 6v6 maps as a solo player. [b][u]Play: Launch Maps (Multiplayer)[/u][/b] An impressive number of modernized [u]Modern Warfare 2[/u] (2009) maps are part of the initial map pool, along with three Ground War maps (based on points of interest within the Urzikstan Big Map) and a linear section of the massive Urzikstan itself (War mode). [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/7a309916d8d1ecc8daef6e699d55d18627f25bc2.jpg[/img] [b]Afghan (Core): [/b]Battle in the arid desert canyons around a crash site, encircled by bunkers and cliffside anti-air batteries poised to take down incoming aircraft. The uneven terrain presents risk and opportunity, from the high cliff face above to the dark cave below. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/406b8cfd3fc32479a5f69733193e29aa9693f40b.jpg[/img] [b]Derail (Core): [/b]Snow blankets the forest surrounding a railway town and its facilities. At the center, a trainwreck has scattered railcars over the landscape. Take the lead on this large map and leave your enemies out cold in the woods. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/ebb51e2334899585877480cb549bb89840f1cbf8.jpg[/img] [b]Estate (Core): [/b]Head to a secluded getaway in the Caucasus Mountains, where a pristine lodge overlooks an expansive woodland property. Fight from the main living quarters or utilize the various outbuildings and fields to engage enemies from the perimeter. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/57ff9ea074876bff97c2bc325664489388e16be4.jpg[/img] [b]Favela (Core): [/b]Drop into the slums of Rio de Janeiro as bystanders scramble to escape the scene of the oncoming skirmish. Brave the tightly clustered center, fire down on enemies from the rooftops, or stick to the perimeter and eliminate enemies from afar. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/d654cc2e4f8bf127d0d76f5dae4cf10cf54d38ff.jpg[/img] [b]Highrise (Core): [/b]Whatever you do, don’t look down. This midsized map consists of two opposite facing buildings over a central rooftop worksite. Tunnels wind below the surface and an imposing Helipad offers access to some of the map’s best vantage points alongside other perilous crossings for the brave and foolhardy. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/8d67728cba94e2a2e5b267828f8fa3fba499f5fa.jpg[/img] [b]Invasion (Core): [/b]Deploy to a battle-torn, medium-sized Multiplayer map featuring tightknit buildings, close street fighting, and long-distance vantage points. In this urban layout, Operators must act fast and smart, turning the map’s risks into advantages. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/35384f3e7feed29022f83ab60fd22cd3681a1f85.jpg[/img] [b]Karachi (Core): [/b]Keep your eyes sharp and your head on a swivel; this map challenges Operators with a compact urban setting packed with climbing opportunities and routes for every playstyle. A keen understanding of the layout will help you prepare for your next drop into this medium-sized Multiplayer map. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/8d3ec73e9f4bc33802e769f50c8efeb7ff9fe548.jpg[/img] [b]Quarry (Core): [/b]This open-pit mine in a wide-open map features plenty of long-distance fights down the center Crane and side lanes. Quarry is punctuated by close-range battles in the offices and warehouses. Climbing opportunities abound. Or bring the fight indoors where multilevel buildings provide room to move and windows that overlook huge swaths of the map.  [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/ef9f521a906d23c602b1b521a42ab09a01d11280.jpg[/img] [b]Rundown (Core): [/b]Infiltrate a South American village where a low-running river divides the main settlement from its more sparsely populated Outback. Group your forces when attempting to make a crossing and watch those corners when weaving through the cluster of buildings. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/80997e283721212700a552ccb4436b8756e56d00.jpg[/img] [b]Rust (Core): [/b]Located in the oil fields of the Urzikstan desert, Rust is a small, square map dominated by its central tower. Fight for your spot up top or use the map’s various obstacles to stay out of sight while you skirmish on the ground.  [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/30a065f52023dcb675b74b9631decf614565be54.jpg[/img] [b]Scrapyard (Core): [/b]Battle in an aircraft boneyard surrounded by buildings overlooking the wreckage within. Flank enemies by racing through the fuselages and watch your head when sniper battles erupt between the two main warehouses. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/7d6057313115584ef7e613f9ad4760471820e8bf.jpg[/img] [b]Skidrow (Core): [/b]Deploy to a midsized urban landscape dominated by the central block. Smaller buildings around the perimeter provide further vantage points, and the streets throughout give savvy Operators the means to flank and outmaneuver their enemies. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/9800379895b1a44b48d2243568fc9db4cc9589a1.jpg[/img] [b]Sub Base (Core): [/b]Submarines dock for maintenance and refueling at a naval base on the high seas. Deploy dockside and battle for control over the locale — a midsized map packed with vantage points, flanking routes, and a deadly center ground where only the most stalwart Operators dare pass. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/e89dab9dea61a8f4f9a83cf1e4bd27be8bc3cc10.jpg[/img] [b]Terminal (Core): [/b]Infiltrate an International Airport and battle across one of the most infamous locales of all. Try your luck inside the terminal or take the fight to the Apron. All playstyles have their place on this midsized, classic Multiplayer map, so gear up how you want and get ready for departure. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/535ec23a59c3dd7fb6e9231d233c80fd6dabfadb.jpg[/img] [b]Underpass (Core): [/b]Pouring rain has transformed this run-down South American industrial sector into a mud bath, but that won’t stop Operator skirmishes. Tromp through the mud, stage an ambush, or test your luck on the rain-slicked rooftops. In this large environment, your climbing and ambush options are nearly endless. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/103a49f4b8eb7a2c334def05bb00da4b871e20a1.jpg[/img] [b]Wasteland (Core): [/b]Battle across an abandoned Wasteland, where wide-open fields encourage sniper battles all around. If extreme close range is more your speed, try your luck in the Dugout, a tight underground crossroads where all trenches meet in the middle. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/9e346b675c048d1fdac010206397c587308a99ad.jpg[/img] [b]Levin Resort (Ground War): [/b]Tourists and business travelers alike used to flock to the Levin Resort, enjoying the poolside seating and abundant shopping and services within. It’s now a vacant site, the nearby statues of General Barkov defaced following his downfall. Tread carefully through the resort courtyard, where vantage points from multiple angles present danger to those below. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/4372ff4d369ce7bae141694a84ad55aad54d329c.jpg[/img] [b]Orlov Military Base (Ground War): [/b]Missile silos lie at the heart of the Orlov Military Base alongside bunkers and facilities built into the mountainous terrain that dominates the northern portion of the map. Scattered barricades throughout provide squads with a means of defense when pushing into the area. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/33612ee198e787569e607ac84ebe4aaadb1bf61f.jpg[/img] [b]Popov Power (Ground War): [/b]The workhorse of Urzikstan, Popov Power supplies energy to the growing region. Fight around the plant’s cooling towers and containment structures and utilize the full run of its industrial buildings to flank and ambush enemy squads. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/a1af50d7c9e2b5b04615ac7416a766d2cefe2b82.jpg[/img] [b]Operation: Spearhead (War Mode): [/b]At launch, the first location within Operation Spearhead is the large-scale Urzikstan map, inside a linear corridor within the Orlov Military Base and Kadurin Silo. Clear anti-aircraft defenses so armored vehicles can be airdropped, staying close to the armor to break through to the launch site and set up missile overrides in this thrilling 6v6 battle! [b][u]Modern Warfare II[/u][/b][b]: Carry Forward Maps[/b] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//42501705/b31871315bcb1e56eb93fbc641af6ff08a12e4ca.jpg[/img] To further augment an already-impressive selection of Core 6v6 maps, we are excited to announce that a number of fan-favorite [u]Modern Warfare II[/u] maps will gradually become available to play in [u]Modern Warfare III[/u] throughout the live seasons. The initial selection — scheduled to be four Core 6v6 maps that include Farm 18, Mercado, and Shoot House — will become available shortly after launch in a dedicated Playlist, and more will follow throughout the Live Seasons. Here's some beneficial intel about these additions: These maps are graphically identical to how they appeared in [u]MWII[/u], and due to the innovations to movement and general gameplay mechanics present in [u]MWIII[/u], you may find that they play in an altogether different manner. These maps are completely additive, meaning they are scheduled to appear [u]in addition to[/u] a full complement of new (and remastered) seasonal maps and other content. New [u]MWIII[/u] modes (such as Cutthroat) will not be playable on these Carry Forward [u]MWII[/u] maps.
