THE WARM-UP MATTERS
Whereas warm-up countdowns in PUBG are time-ticking
exercises in keeping your patience, pulling off kills in Warzone’s pre-match
loading area rewards you with XP that goes towards levelling up your
character and weapons. There’s no such thing as wasted time in Warzone.WHEEL KEEP GOING
Never give up, as playing around with Warzone’s physics
and stim injections can lead to some Hollywood kills. Some goon in a SUV tries
to run you down? Jump in the air at the last minute – you’ll land on the bonnet
injured, so use an injector, and then shoot the driver while moving. Phew.16 17
GO FULL GTA
The mix of open world and heavily armoured vehicles
shouldn’t be lost on anyone who loves a bit of Grand Theft Auto. In the right
hands Warzone’s vehicles are four-wheel drive weapons as you mow down
unsuspecting rivals – the Tactical Rover can even enter some buildings.LOOT TO THRILL
Picking up new guns, armour, and weapon attachments is
a big deal, but because of the focus on teamplay and the Gulag’s ‘get out of jail
(semi-) free card’, opening chests is less of a distraction than in other battle
royales. This places more emphasis on the shooting.18 19

CALL OF DUTY: WARZONE
KILLSTREAKS ARE KILLER
Warzone absorbs all the lessons you’d want it to learn from Fortnite, then puts a distinctly COD stamp on proceedings. Look at killstreaks.
The feature is ported over from the mainline series’ multiplayer, and should you off enough dudes without dying, attack helicopters and airstrikes await.20
