Rumor: New Modern Warfare Prestige System Won’t Require Players to Unlock Items, Weapons to Have 80+ Levels

Just a few days ago, we reported that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will be getting rid of the franchise’s tried-and-true Prestige system in favor of something “seasonal.” For those wondering how it’ll work, a new rumor has cropped up detailing the new Modern Warfare Prestige system.

Over on Twitter, reliable Modern Warfare leaker TheGamingRevolution has shared quite a lot of details regarding the new Modern Warfare Prestige system, though it most likely won’t be called that.  First off, Infinity Ward looks to be releasing new ranks/levels every season, with the biggest change here that players won’t need to unlock their items and weapons again after hitting the cap.

In each Season, there are 100+ challenges that players can complete, and there are extra levels that get reset to 55 at the start of each Season.

As a reward, players who complete seasonal challenges will get a ribbon to show off.

Given how the Prestige system is the “grind” that makes a lot of people pour in hours upon hours in reaching max Prestige, what will players grind for now that this gameplay loop is done for? The answer is: weapons. There are said to be over 80+ weapon levels.

Note that this is not official information, and as such, should be taken with a grain of salt. There’s a chance that Infinity Ward is doing something else, and that TheGamingRevolution’s info is either incorrect, out of date, or so on. That said, he does have a very good track record with these things, so there’s most likely a shred of legitimacy to it.

Will fans embrace this new system though? We can’t say for sure until the game’s out this October 25.

Hmm…I do like the idea of not having to have to unlock my stuff every time.

Loved what I played in the Beta (except Ground War that was terrible lag fest) but everything else was real fun.
