Infinity Ward on concerns over Modern Warfare microtransactions: \u201cWe hear you\u201d Infinity WardThe Call of Duty community has been outspoken in recent weeks about the future of microtransactions in Modern Warfare, and Infinity Ward\u2019s senior communication manager has attempted to alleviate those growing concerns. Fans of the long-standing franchise have expressed their displeasure with the move into more microtransactions in recent releases. On top of that, Call of Duty developers often hold back revealing the MTX details until the game has already dropped. This time around, the community is less than eager to be potentially stung by hefty costs on cosmetics and in-game items once they\u2019ve already purchased the base game, and some have taken to social media to demand early information. \u201cHave there been any extensive interviews with the developers asking them what to expect in Modern Warfare\u2019s MTX system?\u201d asked Reddit user FeelThisMoment.

Infinity Ward\u2019s senior communication manager Ashton Williams defied expectations, providing fans with a small update on when news would be released. \u201cPlease be patient. We hear you. We\u2019ll share more as we get closer to launch,\u201d Williams said in response to the popular post on August 28. \u201cWe\u2019ll say more when we\u2019re ready. Thanks!\u201d While Williams\u2019 update didn\u2019t give too many clues about what microtransactions will be like in the upcoming title, Infinity War has been very forthcoming with the new features they will be bringing to the franchise. Most recently beta testers found new aim assist options in the game, and developer Joe Cecot confirmed these were for all levels of players. It has also been confirmed Modern Warfare will have full cross-play compatibility between consoles and PC. Modern Warfare is set to release October 25, 2019 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
