Here are your Modern Warfare 2 kill streaks and perks! photo

Modern Warfare 2 is almost upon us, and in preperation for what will likely be the biggest shooter of the year, the full list of perks and kill streak rewards has been made available. Bear in mind that the lists are unofficial, and Infinity Ward has gone on record as saying that it will neither confirm nor deny anything listed. Let's face it, though, it's probably all real.

The lists are contained after the jump for minimum spoiler action, so if you want to be surprised, feel free to scoot on elsewhere. The rest of you, however, feel free to check out the goodies that can be yours to enjoy when Modern Warfare 2 rocks your face off. I must admit, I'm looking forward to it.

Hey! No martyrdom? And no second chance? Damn...if they'd drop the PC price 10 bucks I'd buy it...

For increase damage to vehicles what kind of vehicles do they mean the heli and AC?

There is nothing tactical about a nuke. That's like saying Carpet bombing is a finesse exercise in weaponry.

Increased melee distance? Aw fuck, that shit was so messed up in the last one as it is. I would somehow miss people when our models are touching, but other guys would lunge at my from 2 yards away, now it's gonna be even worse!

Ya to no more rubbish perks!

Can't wait to use Bling, and the opportunity for stealth is even better with some of those perks.

Let's review MW2 so far. 5 hour story, no party chat system, bad matchmaking system, inflated price. Feels good saving my money.

I'm going to join Yannak in trollhood. The original game's campaign was a bunch of audio and nothing more. And the trailer for the new one was so painfully cheesy that I cringed. It was like watching a commercial for a WWE pay-per-view event.

@yannak If you feel the game is that unworthy maybe you should have saved your breath too...

Increased melee distance worries me!

What the hell is pave low?

I googled it the other day but it wasn't super specific. Something like a low flying chopper...

what about the deathstreaks? Sounds like there's going to be a lot of crap coming from the sky.

also a pave low is a helicopter of sorts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_MH-53

I wish the UAV thing was an either/or choice. You can use the UAV or wait until a 4 kill streak to use a counter-UAV (but then the option to UAV goes away.) Who knows, maybe it is.

Also, Deathstreaks?

As long as martyrdom and juggernaught are gone, I'm a happy camper

Yay! No martyrdom or second chance... and no 3x frag! I learned to live with martyrdom, but having your enemy turn and shoot like they had a sit-n-spin up their ass was the dumbest perk. There's nothing like getting an honest kill, only to be shot by a "dead" enemy. Good riddance.

Oh wait, it's last stand. It's still there. Well, I played WAW too much... and now you can crawl. Great.

There's actually more info on my blog post, along with a review of the game.

http://www.destructoid.com/blogs/Volomon/cod-mw2-review-cgaming--153841.phtml

For instance all the maps, killstreaks, deathstreaks, some missing info from this list like Scavenger Pro is extra magazines.

Pave Low = A larger, armored attack chopper. Kicks ass.

Can't wait to frag with some of you guys.

If you're confused as to what some of these streaks do, this list comes in handy:

Nice list (I'll miss martyrdom a tad but ill get over it)Whole lot of death from above in that list.

thank god no martyrdom... finally allowing last stand to crawl.. this way you can move to get a better shot at the guy who killed you.. and bling is looking to be a pretty sweet perk..

and LMAO at the tactical nuke.. i saw the video of it on youtube and I was like OMG! but really... i think we'll maybe see only a handful of these in the entire life of this game..

These lists are for the most part disappointing.. IW's gonna have to release something huge if they still want my vote

there are so many kill streak rewards it almost seems like it'll throw off the games balance once one person hits 6 or 7.
