How to play the Bit Party game mode in MW3

The Season 4 Reloaded update added the special Bit Party playlist modifier to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer. The playlist features a retro-style, pixelated map and characters; and is accompanied by a themed package and a limited-time event. Here is an overview of the special aspects of the mode and how to play it.

Playing the Bit Party game mode in CoD Modern Warfare 3

Bit Party is a playlist modifier, which means it uses regular maps and game modes from MW3 Multiplayer and adds a unique flavor to them. For example, one of the maps in the pool includes Bitvela, which is an 8-bit pixel-art version of the original Favela map. More importantly, all the operators in the Bit Party playlist follow the same pixelated theme and are presented in the same way.

The most interesting element of this limited time mode is the operating head sizes. As you get more kills, the size of your head increases along with the hitbox, meaning you are more visible to the enemies and become a bullet magnet. Additionally, a larger skull allows you to score more points and capture targets faster. Your head size can be seen under your health bar in the lower left corner.

If you kill an enemy with a big head, you get bonus points for your team. Plus, you get XP bonuses and special tags like Balloon Head Saboteur, Inflating Ego, and Parade Floating. Another great aspect of the Bit Party playlist is the pixelated death effect (see image) which is a nice touch and adds to the theme. It would be even better if the weapons also followed the same 8-bit art style in this mode.

If you are looking to spend some money on a pack and are into this retro pixel theme, let me suggest the 8-Bit Blitz Tracer Pack. You can buy it for 3,000 CP from the store and use the pixelated operators and weapons in any game mode you like, be it Multiplayer or Warzone. The pack has four operator skins, two weapon sketches and other cosmetics such as a business card and logo.
