Activision is making changes to the perks system inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but it looks like the basic ideas behind the system will remain unchanged. While thegameplay inModern Warfare 2is similar to all the otherCall of Dutygames, it features some notable differences from previous entries.
As an example,Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2has a new perks system, allowing users to select four perks for the match. However, only two are active at the beginning of the game, as players will earn the third and fourth perks over the course of the match. The ones active at the start are known as base perks, followed by bonus, and then finally the ultimate perk for late-game combat encounters. The development team is now updating how these perks are earned, but they aren’t changing the core ideas of the system.
