For those of you who are eagerly awaiting the sequel to Infinity Ward’s smash hit, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, here’s some details that were given out in the latest Game Informer on things we can expect to see in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

  • Soap is back in the game as a “grizzled vet” NPC.
  • Single player enemies will have “customized” weapons similar to the multiplayer component of COD4.
  • Infinity Ward realizes that the “invisible line” where enemies will stop coming in COD4 wasn’t great, so they’re trying hard to eliminate that. Also, they are lengthening the single player past the 6-10 hour mark of COD4.
  • “Special Forces Mode” is a major part of MW2, a series of missions in the spirit of the Mile High Club from COD4. It will also have co-op in this mode. Gears-style bleed-out-and-partner-revive will be used
  • Infinity Ward wants to implement an accomplishment system to online, as they want to make their players famous.
  • Online mode will use a “Live-Patching” system, where Infinity Ward can manipulate spawn logic or certain parts of a multiplayer map without doing a full-blown patch.
