Hardpoint is one of three game modes you’ll play in Modern Warfare 2 Ranked Play. Every 60 seconds, you have to battle to get inside of the objective which is how you score points. Once the first set of rotations have ended, they’ll begin again in the same order. The first team to reach 250 points or have the highest score when the time runs out will come out victorious. Knowing the MW2 Hardpoint rotations is essential to finding success in the mode. Thanks to this handy guide, you’ll never forget a Hardpoint rotation again, no matter what map you’re faced with.
During a match, the next Hardpoint will be marked with a padlock symbol, meaning its about to unlock. However, you should start rotating ahead of time to get set up at the new Hardpoint and get the upper hand over your opponents. When you should rotate depends on various factors. If your team is struggling to break a Hardpoint that has 20 seconds left, your best option can be to begin taking control of the new objective. Also, an early rotation is key if you haven’t secured the preferable spawns and you need to get map control.
