TheMW3 Experimental Playlist provides a chance for players to test new features and more

This playlist currently features a range of maps in addition to a 24/7 Terminal option and the MW2 Mosh Pit.

One other major piece is that “all Operators have a colored outline to distinguish them from the environment,” according to apost from Sledgehammer Games on X.

The developers will be sending out a survey with which they’ll be seeking feedback on the MW3 Experimental Playlist features and changes as a method of deciding what to send to the live playlists or what to scrap.

In a lot of ways, this is similar to running a Playtest Realm (PTR), which is common in many other games. This allows for bug testing, feature testing, and the ability to get real feedback at scale.

Either way, this is a big step in making sure any large changes can get feedback from the player base first, rather than after it’s already hit the live servers.
