Call of Duty: Vanguard beta perks, weapons, streaks and field upgrades revealed

Call of Duty: Vanguard Open Beta is scheduled to arrive on September 10 for PlayStation players only, and later for other platforms.

Players earlier got a taste of what the game will feel and look like in the Champion Hill Alpha of the game. With the Open Beta right around the corner, Sledgehammer Games revealed a list of maps and game modes that players can expect to see.

However, some trusted sources of leakers and data-miners have disclosed the weapons, perks, field upgrades and killstreaks which are bound to come in the Open Beta.

For starters, players will get to experience 5 different maps and 6 unique game modes in the upcoming Vanguard Beta. Apart from these mechanics, there is a new concept called "Combat Pacing" being introduced into a Call of Duty for the first time. This feature will allow players to determine the intensity of their game by modifying the player count for the match.

The game developers received feedback from the community during the Vanguard Alpha testing. They plan on implementing fixes to several issues addressed by players in the Beta test of the game. The changes made are to issues such as lighting of the surroundings, damage overlay, character visibility, audio tuning, spawn tuning and more. Several other problems will be identified and dealt with overtime before the launch of CoD Vanguard in early November.
