If you were playing Call of Duty back in 2007, Shipment 41 may look a bit familiar. And that’s because it is actually a fan-favorite map from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the series’ most influential, and arguably its greatest, release.
If you are familiar with Shipment, you will know it’s an incredibly compact map that is pure, and utter mayhem. It features a simple design, symmetrical and spartan, with only a few permanent structures, a couple of vehicles, and a handful of shipping containers. It’s the type of map you can equally rack up kills and deaths while playing.
If this is your first rodeo with Shipment, here are some tips:
Explosives. In a map this small, frag grenades, satchel charges, stickies, s-mines, are all lethal.
Run armored. If you have Armored IV, use it, that way the constant barrage of explosives is less effective on you.
There’s no time to reload. Your regular shooting cadence will go completely out the window on Shipment. That said, Extended Mags are your friends and LMGs are excellent because they have large ammo clips.
Don’t hide in the shipping containers. They are dead ends, and you’re an easy target with explosives.
Stay moving.
If you’re a Season Pass holder, you already have been enjoying this map since March 13th. But if you aren’t a Season Pass holder, well it doesn’t matter anymore, because now the map is available to everyone. Just remember your helmet.
