Same pool, same fields, no ranking. A map with five Hardpoints is not "better" than one with four — what matters is whether the rotation suits how your squad moves.
Nautical MW4 — Frequently Asked Questions
- How many Hardpoints does Nautical have?
- 5, rotating in the order P1 → P2 → P3 → P4 → P5. Only the rotation order is published — the area names behind each point have to match the in-game callouts before we will print them, and that check is still outstanding for this map.
- What game modes is Nautical available in?
- Nautical sits in the Core 6v6 pool. That is the competitive rotation — Hardpoint, Search & Destroy, Control and the rest of the 6v6 playlist.
- Was Nautical in the MW4 beta?
- No. Nautical was not in the beta and shipped with the launch build. Everything here comes from launch data rather than beta footage.
- Can you use this schematic to plan a route?
- Use it to learn the shape of the map, not to measure it. The drawing is generated from a layout description and deliberately labelled SCHEMATIC — NOT TO SCALE: it shows which zones connect to which and roughly where the Hardpoints sit relative to each other. Distances, sightline lengths and exact cover placement have to come from the game itself.
- What do the grid coordinates on Nautical mean?
- The current build of Nautical plots its Hardpoints evenly because per-point coordinates have not been published yet. The order is real; the spacing on the drawing is not. When coordinates become available the markers will move to their true relative positions.
- How does Nautical compare with the other Core 6v6 maps?
- There are 13 maps in this pool, and Nautical is one of them, alongside Cachette, Lithium, Lotus, Rooftops, Silkworm, Transit 213 that were also playable in the beta. The comparison table below lists every map in the pool with its region, Hardpoint count and release status, so you can see at a glance which ones carry a fixed rotation and which do not.
- Why does this page not name the Hardpoint zones?
- Because a wrong callout is worse than no callout. The rotation order is published by Activision; the real-world name of each zone has to match what players actually say in voice chat, and that requires checking against the game rather than guessing from a schematic. Until that check is done, the page gives you P1–P5 in order and leaves the names out.
