is dropping on the 5th of November, with the period between now and then filled with all sorts of testing opportunities for fans too eager and excited to wait. We don't suspect anything will be left to the imagination by the time the game actually comes out - case in point, Killstreaks have been confirmed and the first one revealed is a returning fan favorite.
Killstreaks have become a Call of Duty staple, an iconic game mechanic that awards players' performance in-game by unlocking powerful abilities with limited uses after you score a number of kills in succession. The mechanic has popped up throughout the franchise, sometimes called Scorestreaks, and is one of the most recognizable gameplay elements of Call of Duty.
What started out as a mere rumor has solidified with actual in-game proof - Killstreaks are a part of Vanguard. While this information does come from in the game itself, it wasn't discovered how you'd think. Instead of there having been an actual Killstreak spotted or possibly even used - the alpha doesn't start until this weekend, but apparently some people have their hands on test builds - an option from the settings menu spoiled the fun.
