Time to go to New Zealand

 

[Umbasaborne]

The game does not officially come out until tomorrow. Only the campaign is available for early access

Its not supposed to be up

 

[Drizzlehell]

That does it - OP cannot play the multiplayer yet?! Activision is finished!

 

[AV]

The game isn't out.

Set your Activision account to New Zealand and it is.

 

[Thabass]

MP isn't up until midnight, tonight.

 

[Bragr]

Just go and play Modern Warfare, you won't tell the difference.

 

[deriks]

It's just me or the physical disc doesn't come with anything but the executable for the download of the campaign?

 

[Mr Moose]

You're a day early. Play the campaign if you haven't already while you wait.

 

[nikos]

Depends on your platform. PC version is on a global launch. Consoles launch at midnight in your time zone, or you can change that to access it early.

 

[RoadHazard]

It's just me or the physical disc doesn't come with anything but the executable for the download of the campaign?

Yes, this is known. It's just a license disc, really.

 

[deriks]

Yes, this is known. It's just a license disc, really.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Lol, yeah, the release date is tomorrow. Goes live late tonight if you stay up!

If you preordered you CAN play the campaign early as it was part of their promo.

Apparently if you're on Xbox you can change your region to New Zealand on your Activision profile, and you're able to access it early? No clue. Very odd, lmao.

Your chance to randomly get shot in the back will unlock soon enough.
I can't wait myself!

It's almost like there was an entire thread on this exact topic.

 

[Umbasaborne]

Its just your copy. If you read the legal disclaimer it says “all copies will have most content on disc except for Neogaf user Deriks”

 

[TexMex]

For anyone else that pre-ordered on PS5. I downloaded each part already and yeah campaign is up of course, but I'm not seeing Multiplayer/Warzone even on the main menu. I'd of course expect them to be greyed out or unavailable at this time (in NA), but I'm not seeing any mutliplayer selections at all. Normal? Anyone seeing anything different?

Create a new zealand PSN account, change your timezone to NZ, restart your ps5, load cod, it will say installing because the multiplayer is locked, close cod, manage game content, delete the multiplayer add-on.

Load COD on the New Zealand account, it will tell you to download the multiplayer add-on that is free - select to download it (only 4.6gb) once it downloads, the licence will be popped, you can then play multiplayer

 

[HiFiVideogameMusic]

People in New Zealand are from the future

 

[Games of Today]

Just go and play Modern Warfare, you won't tell the difference.

At least from the beta, this game feels better. No slide canceling, no bunny hopping, faster time to kill. All positives. Unfortunately you still get cringe characters to play as.

Is this actually how you do it without a VPN? Do you know if this has any negative effects on other games, apps or the console itself?

Can't shoot people in the back?

Yeah, no issues or negative effects, but just to be clear, this isn't going to work for other games, the reason it works for this is because it's a multi-layered licence, early access unlocked, which means you can launch the game, you then trigger the multiplayer add-on from the NZ account, in which case the licence is already 'popped' and you can then play.

 

[Spukc]

bruh why is steam downloading slower?
