Prop Hunt game mode
The Prop Hunt game mode features a hide-and-seek game mode where one team has to hide as props in the map while the other looks for them. In its initial launch, only 12 players were allowed to play in one game, with two teams consisting of six members each.
Every 20 minutes, if the finding team still has not located the hiding team, the props will automatically whistle, giving a hint on their location. This game mode is based on "Gary's Mod" that featured the same gameplay but with a different map and a few changes.
After the Prop Hunt game mode was removed, half of the players of the game also stopped playing. Because of the great feedback that the game mode received, developers decided to bring it back. Although it has not yet been confirmed if it would be a permanent game mode in "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered," players will still get to play it in one of the Weekend Warfare events.
