Call of Duty: Modern Warfare multiplayer beta — Infinity Ward reveals more maps and modes

On the third day of its multiplayer beta test, Infinity Ward opened up the spigots for more players for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. And it also released new maps and modes.

I’ve been playing it quite a bit, and I’ve hit level 17 in the beta test over three days of combat. I don’t have my stats, as tracking doesn’t appear to be activated yet. But it’s pretty good, and I’m actually faring better than I have in the past. I can get through a lot of matches with more kills than deaths. And if you know me at all, that’s better than I usually do. (You can see some of my more recent gameplay in the video.)
