Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is shaping up to be one of the blockbuster shooters for the PC this year (see Billy’s Hands-on Preview) and some fresh info pertaining to the multiplayer aspect of the game has been released, namely the full breakdown of the PC Server-side options available in CoD4.
The full list of server options (which can be found over at the CoD4Boards) is extremely long and detailed so I won’t put the list up here, but it certainly is good news for anyone who is looking to run a CoD4 server or two once the game comes out.
There is the ability to customise everything from standard settings like player numbers and map voting to more advanced settings such as which weapons individual classes can use and how fast each class can move.
You can even change the amount of time the player can sprint before having to rest and make servers where only headshots register as hits.
One thing you have to remember when playing on servers with modified server-side options is that if certain changes are made, the server will be listed as UnRanked, while regular servers, with only minor changes, will remain Ranked.
It’s good to see Infinity Ward putting extra time and effort into making the CoD4 multiplayer experience a good one on the PC. CoD2 multiplayer is still played by hundreds of thousands of gamers around the world so if CoD4 multiplayer is done right, then Infinity Ward will have a winner on their hands once again.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is on track for release on Nov 6th in the USA and Nov 9th Worldwide.
