A lot of players liked the weapon unlock system back in the 2019 Modern Warfare reboot when it comes to the entire Call of Duty series. First version of Gunsmith was quite successful with how could players improve their arsenal. Infinity Ward knows that and they are coming with Gunsmith 2.0.

They have shared a video on Twitter to reveal how they redesigned this system and what could players expect when the game comes out. The most amazing part is that you will not just unlock attachments, but you will be able to use different types of receivers to transform the gun completely. This will be more like a tech tree.

In the video, they have used M4 as the example. Developers show that how you start with the standard M4 receiver and later move to M16 receiver, and then into SMG or DMR variants.

This is totally awesome and players are also reacting with total excitement. Previously, unlocks used to be tied to your account level, and this still seems same for base guns, but now variants are tied to your weapon XP. Infinity Ward says that they want to reflect the modularity of guns in the game. And here comes a cool feature with the tech tree: When you unlock an attachment for one gun platform, it will be unlocked for all possible variants. Taking away the unnecessary and boring grind sounds awesome indeed.
