Summary
Treyarch has confirmed thatCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s Ranked Play will receive two new maps, Vista and Departures, on March 25. Community feedback will determine whether they are added to the map pool ofCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s professional circuit.
The last change to Ranked Play came on March 13, whenCall of Dutyremoved the JAK Glassless Opticfrom the mode. The same update also adjusted Hardpoint spawns on Skidrow, which aimed to decrease the chances of a spawn flip. Before that update, back in early February, Ranked Play added one of Season 1’s post-launch maps in Rio. It seems thatCall of Dutyis continuing this trend to help bolster the mode’s map rotation.
In a post made to Treyarch’s Twitter account, the developer confirmed that the two new maps will arrive in Ranked Play on Monday, March 25. Vista and Departures will be added to all game modes within Ranked, meaning users will see them while playing Hardpoint, Control, and Search and Destroy. To help Treyarch determine whether to add the two maps to the Call of Duty League’s official map pool, the studio encouraged users to share their feedback once they are introduced. This can be done through Twitter by using the MW3RankedPlay hashtag.
Vista and Departures Coming to Modern Warfare 3 Ranked Play on March 25
If the maps are received well, it seems likely that they could replace less popular ones like Invasion and Terminal in certain modes. For now, that’s it for new Ranked Play news, butCall of Dutyfans received another promising updatetoday that finally nerfed the controversial Longbow sniper rifle. Its aim assist was adjusted to match other sniper rifles and its incoming flinch was increased to help enemies counter the weapon in close quarters. The BAS-B’s recently added JAK Outlaw-277 conversion kit was also re-balanced.
Recently,Sledgehammer teased the potential return of Capture the Flag, a mode that almost everyone is probably familiar with. Fans might remember that Capture the Flag was featured inBlack Ops 2’s League Play,Call of Duty’s first-ever ranked mode. While it was a popular mode in Treyarch’s original, innovative system, it seems unlikely that it would return to the modernCall of Dutycompetitive scene. Also, it’s important to note that Capture the Flag’s return is still unconfirmed.
