Call of Duty: Modern Warfare had its multiplayer reveal this week, and perhaps the biggest talking point was the lack of a mini-map.
Infinity Ward’s decision to ditch the mini-map for Modern Warfare marks a significant change for the series. In its place is a Skyrim-style compass set at the top of the screen.
I played a handful of hours of competitive multiplayer at Activision’s preview event in Los Angeles this week, and initially found it hard to adjust to the lack of a mini-map.
