How to Activate UAV Towers in DMZ: Warzone 2 0

Learn how to activate UAV Towers in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II's DMZ mode. Find towers on your map and understand the implications for you and other players.

Alright, so you want to know how to get those UAV Towers up and running in DMZ for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II? It's actually pretty straightforward, and I'll walk you through it. Think of it as a way to get a quick intel advantage on the map.

First things first, you need to find a UAV Tower. The easiest way to do this is by checking your tactical map. Look for the legend on the map, and you'll see icons marking the UAV Tower locations. They're usually scattered pretty well across the major areas of the map, so no matter where you spawn or end up, there's likely one not too far away.

Now, some towers are easier to reach than others. You might stumble upon one that's out in the open, while others could have a bit of a climb involved or even a locked door you'll need to deal with before you can get to the activation panel.

Once you reach a UAV Tower and activate it, you're essentially calling in a UAV sweep for that entire region. Here's the kicker: everyone else in that area will get a notification that a UAV is active. If you're caught in the scan, your squad's position will be revealed to whoever activated the tower. So, be prepared to potentially be tracked and hunted, especially if you've got good loot on you. This also means other players in the vicinity will know they're in danger and might be expecting a fight.

One more thing to keep in mind is that activating UAV Towers is often part of the mercenary challenges. If you're trying to complete those tasks, make sure to check the mercenary tab in-game and activate the challenge before you head out. It's a good way to knock off one of your objectives while you're out exploring and securing intel.
