Rumor: first round of CoD Modern Warfare 2 details leaked? *Update* debunked |
Ó
"Say, did you get the memo on this?"
Yeah, here's one for CoD-prestiged pal, EmilioB. We got a whole bucketload of details for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (aka CoD6)! The catch here is... it's a rumor. Supposedly, it was leaked straight right out of Infinity Ward's cooking labs. And it's either that, or you could err on the side of caution, and simply write it off as a wish list.
Well, maybe not so much as a wish list, since some items down there may or may not be good for the lot of you. For all intents and purposes, it looks like CoD6 will be taking some elements from the previous games (mostly Modern Warfare, of course).
- Vehicles will be in MW2
- M16 will return, using stopping power will only be OHK at head, neck, and torso (abdomen, limbs, and hands/feet will not)
- Ak47 and M4 will return, unknown if there are any changes
- M40 will return, ACOG damage boost will be fixed
- Scorpion, P90, M21, R700, G3, G360 will not return
- There are more unknown weapons that will not return
- New sniper rifle: SR25M (United states forces)
- New Assault rifle: Diemeco C8 (Canadian forces M4 equivelant)
- New Assault rifle: L85A2 (United Kingdom forces)
- Total weapons in multiplayer are said to be around 35
- Favourite Modern warfare 1 maps will return
- Helicopters, air strikes, UAV will return
- Red dot sightings will come in different shapes for multiplayer (circular, square, original)
- Snipers will have special grass camouflage (As seen in Modern warfare 1Â’s campaign)
- All perks will return from MW except eavesdrop and others will be altered
- All gametypes will return from MW and all will have hardcore versions
- New gametype: Secure (Call of duty version of capture the flag, however you capture the enemyÂ’s Intel)
- New gametype unconfirmed name, similar to search and destroy, however instead of trying to plant a bomb, you try to kill a specified enemy
- Solider customization for each class (and each country)
- Sniper with silencers will NOT be in multiplayer
- There are NO bots in local multiplayer
- Similar version to Nazi Zombies, however details are unknown
- NO guest players online, 1 player per console
- Killcam save feature
- There is blood and gore
- Offline/Online Co-op
- Story takes place in the Middle East
- Role as US marines return
- Ken Lally voice work in campaign
- Release is set for sometime in November
- New army tags will be available to add different elements in campaign (similar to halo skulls)
- Campaign-only weapons
Thanks to Kalvin T for the tip, and elite999 for some clarifications!

*Update* Aww. Sorry, EmilioB. And to the rest of you guys who were hoping for this. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. The list is now debunked by Infinity Ward.
It didn't come from anyone who has access to our internal builds and indeed contains several features that are already in CoD4 such as grass camo for snipers. In short, it's BS.
In fact, the NeoGAF thread where the list originated from already contains some replies from none other than CoD community manager Robert Bowling (FourZeroTwo) and one of Infinity Ward's programmers (Rayme).
Though the list is debunked now, that doesn't mean some of the items here won't eventually appear on CoD:MW2.

you have no idea how happy you have made me.
hahahha

I don't think that Modern Warfare 2 is Call of Duty 6, it is sequel to CoD4: MW1 which makes it CoD4:MW2.
just like Final Fantasy X, X-2 and XI,
X-2 came after XI which doesn't mean X-2 is XII.
Honestly if they can make the online mode even better thats all im looking for couldn't rli care much for the single player campaign.
Just hope they change it for the worse...
but on other hand, hopefully its as good as its predecessor. the story in MW1 isnt going to be easy to top.
"dont"
No P90? That's bull*****. There has to be a good SMG, technically PDW, and the P90 is the best damnit!
"Snipers will have special grass camouflage (As seen in Modern warfare 1’s campaign)" - wasn't that already in cod4's multiplayer?
Yes, to be honest, I myself got confused while I was reporting this bit of info. However, when I checked other sites, people were referring to the same thing. (I've also talked about this with some of the CoD fans - you guys know who you are! - and they agree: CoD6 is CoD:MW2)
See, some people use Call of Duty 6, simply to refer to "the sixth installment of the etc etc etc", while some others call it CoD: Modern Warfare 2.
And yes, initially, I thought of it as the same thing as FFX and FFX-2. A similar case is Guitar Hero 4. When Activision announced it, and then revealed GH: World Tour, some people thought they were different. And remember when people got confused when Killzone 2 was announced? People were like "Whut? Shouldn't it be Killzone3?" But then they clarified that Killzone Liberation was just a spinoff, and not part of the numerical series. Things like these happen every now and then.
Least to say, MW2 *is* the sixth installment of the CoD franchise. So when someone mentions CoD6, you should know that they're most probably referring to MW2.
I always play as a sniper and the default sniper class has a ghillie suit
They are practically getting rid of the SMG class :S my P90... seriously. I am hoping the XM8 makes the list of new weapons. I am a bit dissapointed about the removal of the P90, but hell. This game is cut out to be one of the greatest FPS's EVAR. (hopefully)
i hate cod4,5 n da new 1. Resistance 1,2 and killzone 2 r better. But thats just my opinion lol.
if they are going to add new weapons that are currently being developed, maybe i could have read a really old tech mag issue. it talked about some kind of assault riffle that is able to shoot .50 cals automatically.
MY SWEET SWEET SWEET G3... It never hurt anyone..... wait i had killing sprees for hours with that beast.... WHY KILL IT!!!!!!1
G3 was my favorite weapon. I hope that part's not true! P90 as well!
Infinity Ward's Community Manager has debunked these rumors as BS used to get the originating blog site more hits. This was confirmed via his online blog @ fourzerotwo.com
Its not lyk any1 wud biliv these "leaked details".
Firstly in leaked details, why would anyone write "Similar version to Nazi Zombies, however details are unknown". In which leaked details would someone write "unknown".
Also "(similar to halo skulls)". Why would any1 leak details informing us they are copyin another company.
Lastly, who would write, "there is blood and gore". That is not leaked!
So who else knew it was totally rubbish!
Which gun was that? Only ones with G3 i can think of was the G3 and the G36C which would probably be what G360 was.
What would happen if CoD 5 is released after MW2? Would that make it CoD 7?
That's why I don't ever refer to spin-off's as sequels. Usually when you say a number at the back of a title, that indicates a sequel. The point that can't be argued: the developers themselves have not even called w@w "CoD 5" so why is it okay to call it something it's not?
if all or most of the things were true then I would buy that game. Mostly for online play not story mode.
sucks, now go home... but killzone 2 isnt bad.
no P90 G3 OR g36?? then what the heck are they gonna put in as replacements? guns people have never heard of?
"New gametype unconfirmed name, similar to search and destroy, however instead of trying to plant a bomb, you try to kill a specified enemy"
so basically assasination? that will be fun in COD but why do game devs always try to act like their new game mode has never been done? gears 2 did the same thing with their team leader game mode. its all the same!
Besides RE games there was another that did this I can't remember. Spin-offs are like this. OHHH GTA games. It went from 1-3 then to San Andreas and Vice City then 4. I think we'll see the CoD5 next year.
Any Call of Duty title made by Treyarch, wasn't a real Call of Duty game.
I LOVED MY P90 WHYYY
