The Modern Warfare beta is in full-swing, with players all around the world testing out the latest iteration to the franchise.
Following its release to Xbox and PC platforms on September 19, players have now been coalesced for the first time in Call of Duty history, through the brand new ‘cross-play’ feature — and with a mosh pit of competition from all platforms, players are looking to get one over their enemies by any means.
Cross-play ups the ante by bringing all Call of Duty players together.One way which players can give themselves an edge is through optimizing their class setup, in a bid to refine the resources at hand to suit their style of play — which is exactly what Crimsix has done by sharing his savvy grasp of class manipulation to the masses on his YouTube channel.
Given that Crimsix is the winningest Call of Duty player of all time, it’s safe to assume that he is a dab hand at the first-person shooter, but more than aim and map awareness, knowing how to put together the perfect class is another skill required to be a pro.
In his September 20 YouTube video, Porter flaunted his talents alongside showing his optimized Assault Rifle (AR) class.
