Sentry

Overview

Sentry is an assault on a military base in whiteout conditions. Its centerpiece is a large command building in the middle of the map, with partly destroyed barracks to the north. Fights also break out around the maintenance garage, generator room and substation that surround it. Wide open snowfields fill the west and east sides.

Those open areas give Sentry some of the longest sightlines of any MW4 launch map, so snipers, marksman rifles, assault rifles and LMGs all have a place here. Crossing the snow in the open is risky.

Sources disagree on the setting: the official description used by Games Atlas and Beebom places the base in North Korea, while Dexerto and Mobalytics call it Russian.

Hardpoint

The rotation runs Control Center, Barracks, Dome, Driveway (by the white jeeps), Utility (by the fuel depot), then loops. Each hill is up for 60 seconds.

The Control Center is the most fought-over spot on the map, and every other hill sits around it, so the team that holds the middle has the shortest rotations. Remember that standing on top of structures inside a hill doesn’t count: stay on the ground to score or contest.

Search & Destroy

Guides point to a few positions around the B site as the key to the round, though they don’t name them, and warn against crossing the open snow areas, where you can be picked off from far away.
