In Another Unprecedented Move, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Is Changing Double XP Tokens so They Count Down in Match and Not Real-Time
Infinity Ward says existing double XP tokens will carry over and only tick down during matches, giving players more usable time at launch.
- On Monday, Infinity Ward confirmed that double XP tokens in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will count down only during active matches, addressing a long-standing community complaint. Existing tokens from previous titles will also be usable at launch.
- Previously, activating tokens would begin the countdown immediately, wasting time spent in pre-game lobbies or adjusting loadouts where no XP could be earned. Infinity Ward addressed this frustration after repeated community requests across yearly releases.
- Addressing beta feedback, developers announced major buffs to Sub-Machine Guns like the Vel 46 and Striga to ensure they remain competitive against ARs. These changes were detailed in The Ward Room after two beta weekends.
- The studio is maintaining tactical sprint as a perk attached to Bloodrush for launch, ensuring Ninja remains a viable movement option while removing sprint-to-fire penalties. Players will also toggle off skins to avoid undesired character appearances.
- Modern Warfare 4 releases October 23 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Switch 2, as Activision attempts to secure market share during a highly competitive annual launch window. The developer promised more DMZ mode details soon.
