Overall Game Features:
Single Player Campaign
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MW2
Special Ops Mode:During the single-player campaign, the player will take on the role of Sergeant Gary "Roach" Sanderson, a young member of an elite, multinational commando unit known as Task Force 141. The player character in Call of Duty 4, Sergeant John "Soap" MacTavish, returns as a non-playable character; promoted to captain in the Special Air Service. MacTavish is now the head of the Task Force and Sanderson's superior officer. A third member of the Task Force is Ghost, a mysterious character who conceals his face with a skull-imprinted balaclava.
Competitive Multiplayer:A new mode introduced in MW2, Special Ops mode will include two-player cooperative play. Special Ops mode will include 23 action missions similar to Mile High Club which will be more difficult than normal campaign missions and will not be related to the main storyline. It will supposedly pick out certain parts of the single player campaign that "work well with co-op". Missions are unlocked by earning stars, which are acquired by playing levels at certain difficulties. Regular difficulty earns one star, hardened earns two, and veteran earns three. Missions will be divided by groups, called Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, and Echo, the last said to be the hardest. Within the groups there are types of missions such as "Breach and Clear" and "Elimination". There will even be special enemy types, such as those using riot shields, or even Special Ops exclusive "Juggernauts" wearing heavy armor.
The general Spec Ops missions fall into the following categories:
Assault – Sends you through a level to take down targets while avoiding civilians.
Stealth – Has you sneak past enemies.
Wave Defense – Spawn’s five increasingly harder waves – similar to Gears 2 Horde Mode.
Elimination – Drops you into a level with a set number of spawning enemies.
Snowmobile Time Trials – Get to the finish line as quick as possible.
Snowmobile Combat – Race against and shoot your friend.
AC-130 – One man in the gunship handles fire support, while one man on the ground has a laser sight on his rifle calling down death from above.
- Spec Ops mode can be played alone (via split-screen) or with another player online.
- Spec Ops mode will be invite only, there is no matchmaking.
- Each player can play Spec Ops missions at different difficulties. However, you cannot earn stars any higher than the player playing the lower difficulty. For example, If player one is playing on Veteran (three stars) and player two is playing on Regular (one star), both players will only earn one star if they complete the mission. Both players must play on Veteran to earn all three stars on the mission.
Multiplayer across all platforms will be very similar to CoD4 on consoles. You can expect the following:
Game modes:
- Team Deathmatch - Use teamwork to kill enemy players and reach the score limit.
- Free-For-All - No Teams, everyone for himself. Kill everyone.
- Domination - Three flags need to be captured and held for as long as possible. Hold the designated positions to gain points.
- Ground War - Rotating game modes (Team Deathmatch, Domination etc.) with a 18 player limit (on consoles) instead of 12.
- Sabotage - 1 Bomb in the center of the map. Grab it and destroy the enemy objective.
- Headquarters Pro - Capture the headquarters and defend it from the enemy.
- Search and Destroy - Two teams take turns in defending and destroying an objective. Offense will carry a bomb that needs to be planted on either one of the two plant-sights defended by the other teams. On half time teams switch, defense will be offense. There is no respawning.
- Capture the Flag - Capture the enemies flag and return it to your teams base to score points.
- Demolition - Defend and destroy both objectives. Teams switch sides after every round.
- Hardcore Team Deathmatch
- Hardcore Search and Destroy
-
-
-
- 3rd Person Cage match Hardcore - Third person 1 vs. 1
- Team tactical - Domination, TDM, Demolition, CTF and SnD.
- Barebones Pro (kill streaks disabled)
- Objectives barebones pro (kill streaks disabled)
- Hardcore Domination
- Hardcore Demolition
- Hardcore CTF
- Hardcore Sabotage
Perks:- Matchmaking, private matches, party system, invites, voice chat, different ranked playlists, and more.
- A new third person mode and matchmaking playlists has been added to the game.
- In-game host migration has been added. When the host of the game quits, the game will automatically pick the next best host and the game will continue.
- In private games, you can invite your friends/other players and customize the game settings as necessary. These private games are unranked and no XP can be earned.
- New perks are introduced and certain old perks have been removed. Perks can also be upgraded to a “Pro” version which adds new benefits in addition to the normal function. For example, Marathon Pro, in addition giving unlimited sprint, allows you to vault over obstacles faster.
- New Death Streaks are introduced, which gives players a certain perk when they die a certain number of times in a row. An example is Copycat, which copies the perks and weapon setup of the last person who killed you.
- New killstreak rewards have been introduced, from the 4 killstreak Care Package, which drops a random ammo box or killstreak reward to the first player to pick it up, to the powerful 11 killstreak AC-130 of “Death From Above” fame in CoD4.
- Players can now customize their killstreak rewards. They can decide what three rewards to have and in what order they appear in.
- As expected, a ton of new weapons will be introduced to MW2, but some old weapons will not return.
- Pistols aren’t the only secondary weapons now. Shotguns and machine pistols have been made secondaries.
- A riot shield has been added. The riot shield acts as your primary weapon, with which you can block attacks and melee enemies, but significantly slows down your movements and your back is exposed. A secondary weapon can still be equipped, but not wielded at the same time as the shield. When the secondary weapon is out, the shield will be slung on your back and protect your back from bullets.
- New equipments have been introduced that can replace your basic frag grenade.
Some of these include:
- Throwing knives, which can be recovered from your dead enemies.
- Semtex, which acts as the sticky grenade for MW2.
- Tactical Insertion, a flare that provides the owner a new spawn point.
- There will be new attachments for your weapons, such as the Heartbeat Sensor, Thermal Scope, and many other new variations of the Red Dot Sight.
- With the Bling perk, you can now equip more than one attachment on weapons.
- You can now go akimbo and dual wield pistols, SMGs, and certain other weapons.
- A ton of new challenges are introduced to constantly reward players for actions such as double kills, rescuing teammates, stopping an opponent’s killstreak, etc.
- New accolades will be shown after matches to see who had the most knife kills, most UAVs used, and many more.
- A new customizable call sign and emblems will be introduced. These call signs and emblems will show up on screen as you kill opponents. As players gain XP, level up, and perform certain actions, they will unlock new specific emblems. Do you like to make knife kills? You can get a specific emblem for that. There are tons of call signs and emblems to unlock.
- The max rank/level cap has been raised to 70.

- A new multi-player mode called "Global Thermonuclear War" has been rumored to be a new addition. Players have to "capture" a nuke (which looks like a bomb site) until they reach 100 points which then the nuke blows up, kills everyone and wins the match for the team which captured it. It does not matter how many players are around the nuke capturing it. The capturing speed does not increase.
- Also, additional Special Ops mode missions are being considered for future DLC. No other information has been revealed as of yet.
