CoD: Modern Warfare II Gameplay

Numerous substantial modifications exist to the core gameplay of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. Several improvements have been highlighted, including a more sophisticated artificial intelligence system in the campaign and co-op modes, improved water physics and swimming mechanics, and a reworked vehicle system.

The ability to cancel a slide has been removed, and new features and mobility strategies like the dive to prone, mantle, and ledge hang have been added. Leaning out the window, mantling onto the roof, and hijacking vehicles are all new ways to play with vehicles. There have been changes made to the leveling and Gunsmith systems that give players more control over how their weapons and attachments work for them. In addition to a practice fire range and weapon platforms with branching advancement to break up the monotony, the game also has a branching progression system for the weapons.

Several new multiplayer modes have been added to Modern Warfare 2, including Knockout, in which two teams compete to capture a package with limited lives, and Prisoner Rescue, in which one team attempts to free a hostage while the other team fortifies the area around the hostage to prevent the extraction. It was confirmed in September that third-person games would be available, along with a 3v3 Raid mode, the specifics of which are currently unknown. Special Ops missions for two players are confirmed to return.
