For some, this might not be that much of a big deal, but for those who enjoy dropping into Verdansk with a group of friends, you’ll want to know why the Regiments feature is being frozen inWarzone.
What Are Regiments InWarzone?
Regiments is a feature that has been in mostCall of Dutytitles, just usually under a different name.
In bothModern WarfareandWarzone, Regiments are a social feature that allow you to create a clan with your friends. This offers various benefits such as ‘Happy Hour’ which gives you and your team Double XP for a set hour every day.
Plus, Regiments allows you to play competitively against other teams and even change the color of your clan tag.
Creating a Regiment is incredibly straightforward, just head into eitherModern WarfareMultiplayer orWarzone, navigate to the Social Menu then to the Regiments tab. From here you can create your very own Regiment and invite your friends.
Unfortunately though, this feature won’t be around for much longer.
Why IsWarzoneRemoving Regiments?
According to aCall of Dutyblog post for Season 6 ofWarzoneandCold War, the Regiments feature is set to be frozen when the latest season goes live on October 7th.
Once Season 6 goes live inWarzonethis Thursday, players will no longer be able to create Regiments with friends and will instead only be able to view your Regiment Roster and inspect players.
This also means no more Happy Hour rewards! But why are Raven Software removing the popular feature?
Well, it’s reportedly to make way for a new ‘Clan-based’ system arriving inWarzonewith theVanguardintegration later this year. Exactly how the new clan system will work has yet to be detailed.
