News - Warzone 2: Everything Coming Season 2. Warzone And Zombies
We have the Fortune's Keep map, so this is going to be there right at launch at the beginning of season 2, and basically there's a new aesthetic. I shouldn't say aesthetic; it's an updated version of Fortune's Keep. First of all, there's a really cool picture there. I really like that one, but also, this is the Fortune's Keep map, so the couple new things that you can see here are, first of all, the Cony Outpost, so Cony is going to be on this map, and of course, it's going to play into the story somehow.
Then we have our various different locations, so we have the rear docks and caves. On top of this, we have the terraces. This location looks really cool. We also have the graveyard, which I'm well acquainted with. On top of this, we have Lower, so this is kind of along the water side of town. We have Upper, which is the actual town in itself.
We have Overlook, which I guess is the outside of that little area, and we have the Cony Outpost. This is what I just talked about, so this is something brand new within this one; it's a very small area but an area nonetheless. Then we have Pier it is simply a pier, then we have a lighthouse, it is the lighthouse and you can kind of see the crass, going through here, and also another new interesting thing about this one is you can swim now so that's going to be updated in fact if you watch the trailer there appears to be a way where you can lower and raise the water in certain locations and one of those appears to be the winery, which kind of is all cracked up compared to when we saw it last then we have the gate house again giant crack going through the middle of it then we have Ground Zero they state that this is done by the Coney group so I guess they bombed Fortune's keep and this created this Ground Zero or crater kind of in the middle of the map and the TAC atlas map is now live for this map as well so if you want to get more in-depth features, that's what's going on there now there are new gameplay features and one of them is zombies nest and eradication.
Contract, so it's a new contract as well as a zombie nest. They say operators should be aware that recent seismic events may be linked to an increase in undead activity across the island; therefore, a new and temporary eradication contract has been issued to all available operators. Investigate any corpses you find, following the contract to a zombies nest, so that'll be the same as the zombies nest that you see within zombies, so then you destroy the cyst and eliminate the zombies high-value target, but keep in mind that this isn't zombies.
This is in war zone Resurgence specifically another public event that we have is called a rogue signal so the example that they give for this one is you will receive an objective so in other words deal the most damage to players within a given amount of time you then have 90 seconds to do so, when you do if you complete it the reward cash remains locked for the next 30 seconds, whichever team opens the cash first receives the reward, rewards are randomized, and don't remain with you after the match and for season two they can include redacted, a wonder weapon from Modern Warfare zombies and redacted so two things that we don't know but the other one that we do know we saw within the trailer that is the ray gun so very powerful almost reminds me of a blackout way back in the day cuz the ray gun was in there also there is going to be zombies powerups on the map as well so they include double points, full armor, max ammo fire sail looting spree, zaror.
Which is increased movement speed and undead sight, which operators or AI enemies within the range of your vision are highlighted, are very powerful things, but they only last for the very maximum. The fire sale lasts 90 seconds. Another new thing is that there is an extendable bridge—a bridge you can retract and make longer.
Also, fortune favors the bold, and essentially what they are talking about here is that there is going to be loot on the map, that is, you can find in certain areas. And I'm assuming this is like the ray gun and things like that as well. There's also a new tracker, Squad Wipe Streaks. Essentially, how this works is that there's going to be a thing in the top right of your screen when you wipe a team; it'll start a 90-degree timer, which gives you 90 seconds to eliminate your next team; if you do so, your streak continues; and basically, if you do have the highest squad elimination streak, you can earn calling cards and emblems, so that's what that is for.
Then they talk about midseason, so they're adding some new things to this map midseason as well. First of all, a research vessel, which is essentially a mobile point of interest; it's going to be a boat essentially on the water; the bunker buster, which is a kill streak, uses binoculars to designate a target structure.
This lethal kill streak launches a missile that vertically decimates a building through multiple floors. So it won't destroy the building from everything that I understand, but anyone in that building is going to die, and we talked about this one yesterday, the portable decontamination station. We've seen this before in war zones, so we know how that one works.
The other thing that is coming at launch is a war zone-ranked resurgence. So from everything that I understand, a war zone-ranked resurgence is just going to be a resurgence. What you need to know is that it's on Fortune's Keep; it is a resurgence. There are file fire sales and restock events; there's vehicle restrictions; there's no turreted vehicles; that is pretty much it, so then we can see the skill divisions; it works exactly the same as multiplayer ranked, which is good.
I think it's good to have continuity. But how does it actually work so when you finish in the following places this is the amount of Sr, that you will get but you also get Sr for kills and assists, it's based off of time remaining there's 9 plus minutes remaining I believe that's how that works kills and assists equal Five Points and if you're playing on a team if you don't assist a kill you get two points 8 minutes 7 and three points and 3 minutes 15 and seven points so it's most advantageous, to get your most amount of kills in the last 3 minutes of the game now there's also challenges to go with the season as well as you can see reach top eight Squad reach top three Squad, 10 kills or assists things along these lines you're just going to be able to complete challenges for them essentially it's going to be work very similar to last time we saw war zone rank but this time in resurgence, as you can see here are your rewards here based off of the placement that you finish at the end of a season.
