As the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare draws nearer, fans are still awaiting for official information from the studio as to how microtransactions and other in-game features will work for the title when it launches on October 25.

Infinity Ward’s Art Director posted on Reddit a post called “a developer POV” where he asked fans to wait for ‘official information’ versus believing ‘half baked rumors’ from some people in regards to Supply Drops and the MTX system in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

Late on October 7, he’s responded in that reply to a fan who was asking for clarity in regards to the MTX system. Fans have been saying they don’t want to see another Black Ops 4 style micro transaction system in Modern Warfare.

Emslie has replied saying that they’re “focused on making a different system in Modern Warfare.” He also says the different system is “one with a direct path to content for players.”

Thank you for the kind words about the effort we put into the game and I’m sorry for such a delayed response. What I can say is that we are focused on making a different system for Modern Warfare, one with a direct path to content for players.

It’s still not exactly clear what types of MTX Modern Warfare will feature at this point. Having a system that’s different than Black Ops 4 is interesting thing to mention as Black Ops 4 featured a variety of MTX systems, including tiers, Supply Drops, in-game store, and more.

Exact details on Modern Warfare’s system have yet to be revealed, but this response could be a positive sign for now as we wait for more information.

We’ll keep you updated.
