What gamers want of Modern Warfare 2
A survey was made by a website that asked readers for feedback about what weapons gamers like to see in Modern Warfarer 2. The website received overwhelming responses. There were 1,500 replies in the comments section of the website.
A lot of gamers wanted to see more weapon customization and there were a lot of requests for more pistols, sub machine guns and rifles like the FAMAS. A good deal of gamers also wished to see a perk that will allow for two attachments for their primary weapons.
There were also hundreds of gamers who were simply posting endless lists of weapons complete with model numbers.

The things, very few, that most of the gamers would not want in Modern Warfare 2 is the Silenced snipers and a return for the Juggernaut perk.
These were just a snippets from the feedback of the website. Wish someone from Infinity Ward stumbles on this and may take all such requests into consideration. Let’s hope for better.
i think a 10 kill streak should give you a stinger missile for those pesky helicopters
@Ryan
I’ll be honest, if I was lame and bad at CoD4, I would play regular too. Martyrdom is the worst perk in the game, alongside Eavesdrop, because of the unrealistic aspect and the overuse by nubs that make it a decent perk.
The M4 has terrrrrible damage unless stopping power is used, and the M16 is BY FAR a better gun in all aspects except fully automatic. If you played hardcore you would understand what I mean. Double tap on an M16 is multitudes better than an M4 with anything on it.
And the Skorpion does have a small clip but is not close to the worst SMG in the game. I would rate it just under the MP5 and tying with the P90, if you know how to use it.
@jpr its more realistic if you can have 2 perks cause thats the way it is in real life kid deal with it
i think you should be able to set if its dark or light with 2 weapon attachments AND ZOMBIE MODE AGAIN also make the guns that are stronger in real life stronger and the guns that are weaker weaker. Silenced snipers are a good idea but take off UAV jammer if they use it make it so you can vote for viecles on the map kinda like how they vote on the map.
@King Spaceghost i agree with everything…i hate how everyone hates the scorpion for its clip…its good
oh if anyones interested…..im 15
@john I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH YOU THATS DUMB! YOU WANT ZOMBIES? PLAY WAW AND NO SILENCED SNIPERS
no juggernaut noobs, no vehicles, no p90, no m16, no drop-shoting, no martyrdom
@dave
Can’t really keep people from drop-shotting. And the use of Juggernaut doesn’t make someone a nub.
No Silenced Snipers, that’s retarded. I would also like to see both day and night modes and enjoy a WARHAWK style of split screen online play. We could use some more guns too, like an AR-15 chambered in 6.8 grendel or .308, a steyr aug, kel-tec RFB .308 bullpup, .223 Sig 556 pistol, etc etc
people who think silenced snipers are retarded.. well just get lost lol. nuff said to ‘em. SILENCED SNIPERS ARE REAL. If you cant handle it then its your problem. i think that not all snipers should be silenced, the the ones that can be in real life. if golden guns are brought back then we should be able to choose which gun should be golden. example: before we were only allowed golden AK is we finished assault challenges, but now we should be able to pick another gun in assault like the m16 or g36c.
@John
dude john silenced snipers would be awesome. just think of it for a second. if you dont like the idea then you must suck shit at sniping or something. and it should be like no sound and no flash, it should just be no sound/muzzled.
How about not Being able to get outside or under the playing field where you can’t be shot? Those people piss me off!
After let’s say 25 kills, call in tactical nukes!
@King Spaceghost
It is all about what game mode you play, i play regular team deathmatch because i don’t like to camp and i always have a feeling someone on my team is going to confuse me for the enemy and therefore ruin my streak.
I still believe the M16 is overpowered but yes it is obviously a good gun.
In terms of Martydom there are two reasons:
1. There isn’t any useful perk 3’s
2. It is good when you are in a built up area and easy to flush out campers.
Another thing i want to add is that MW2 should reward players that have a good Kill/Death Ratio. As i believe that is the most impressive stat.
@sakkky
I agree…silenced snipers are real so they should be in the game. thats one thing i didnt like about call of duty 4. the first month i played it was easy to hide but then as you start getting used to the game it gets harder and harder to find a place to hide until there really isnt any hiding. i would like to be able to sit somewhere with my sniper and not have to be constantly moving around, cause thats what real snipers do.
full auto shotguns, silenced snipers, night and heat vision, more variety of pistols, better ghillie suits, larger maps, and customizable characters
So as a silenced sniper, you will not appear on radar, and with the UAV block perk, how is anyone to ever figure out where they are being shot from? I don’t have a problem with it until everyone is camping with their UAV blocking perk enabled. Have you heard a suppressor on a high powered rifle in real life? When it comes to suppressors in REAL LIFE, the only silence you get is when firing a wet suppressor with pistol and rimfire calibers.
Silenced snipers would be cool as long as they can’t use the UAV jammer perk. I could see that getting out of hand. Customizable daytime/nightime and weather would be fun. Is there any word if this new game will allow online split-screen multiplayer from one console? That would be badass.
@Ryan
Once again, Martyrdom is a horrible perk. If you truly knew how to play the game, with your sound very loud (or with a gaming headset) you would understand that Dead Silence is the most USEFUL perk in the game. Sure martyrdom gets you cheap kills, but its less than a 1 in 10 chance that you’ll get killed by someone within 10 feet of you.
Also, I clearly stated that players with over a 2.0 K/D ratio should be awarded a couple pages back on this thread.
And to idiots who still whine about silenced snipers, you can ALWAYS tell where someone is killing you from, be it hardcore or regular. In hardcore, when you die, the camera focuses directly at where the bullets came from for about 2 seconds post-mordem.
In regular, you have a kill-cam for God’s sake.
Another solution, like I mentioned above… Get… A… Headset… Instead of buying a new game that you’ll eventually get bored with, spend 60 bucks on a Turtle Beach X1 at Best Buy. Learn people.
@bewbs
What your not taking into mind is that having UAV blocking perk will reduce the damage of the sniper, meaning there will be less opportunity for the “1-Shot-Kill” in normal mode. It would be good to have the UAV jammer perk on a very powerful sniper but then again it doesnt really work like that either, take a look at the barrett .50 cal, i was playing 10mins ago with UAV Jammer and Iron lungs and it took 2 shots to kill some one, and most the time they would run away. I think silenced snipers would be great with any perks, and it would be very effective in HC S&D.
Also take in what King Spaceghost said, buy a turtle beach and actually PLAY THE GAME. in normal dont just mash X as soon as you get sniped you you can instantly spawn, use the kill-cam to find out where they are. in hardcore it doesnt really matter if it’s silenced or not. If your team doesnt have a UAV then your stuffed either way, and when somebody snipes then always look at the direction the sound came from and look at the possible sniping spots.
and no, buying a turtle beach doesnt make you nerdy, its there to enhance your gamepley experience and give you the upper-hand. people you dont buy them tend to whine and rage quit.
customisable camouflage would be stupid, cause the first thing some retard would do is make their gun Hot Pink and run around killing people.. actually.. that doesnt sound that bad..
and also, BRING THE SKORPION BACK!! I love that tiny auto-pistol. For people that dont like it, spend some time with it and you’ll see why. i mean, its a pistol that can get people from half-way across the map with a silencer.. THATS HOW ACCURATE IT IS!!. Just stick a Red-Dot Sight, Bomb Squad, Sleight of Hand and Steady Aim on and your set to get 15+ kills in a regular Deathmatch game
Ya…umm…silenced snipers….HELL NO!!! that just makes it even harder to kill a hiding sniper. SECOND on the list…get rid of juggernaut!!! juggernaut is without a doubt the CHEESYIST and NOOBISH PERK EVER INVENTED BY MAN!!!! THIRD on the list, someone did add a 10 kill=stinger missile (which would be preettty cool). FOURTH, no sakkky…the scorpion is like a toy for babies, it is the most worthless piece of shit known to man! FIFTH, they need to stick in:
SCAR
AUG
P226
UMP
AK74
T.A.R. 21
etc..(futuristic guns)
THE END!!!! @sakkky
Oh…do know whats not real???? RADAR is not fucking real. they and all games that are not supposed to be futuristic, can throw radar in the fucking trash because there is no such thing!!!! THERE IS NO SUCH GPS DEVICE THAT CAN FUCKING TELL YOU THAT THERE IS SOMEONE AROUND THE DAMN CORNER!!!! NO IT DOESNT EXIST AND WILL NOT EXIST FOR A WHILE!!!! i have never used radar in any game, and in which i dont need to use it cuz i could rape sakkkys ass without it. nuff sed.
@Mole MAN
You sound like a very angry person Mole Man. You probably need to get better at Call of Duty, and you know it. And yes, UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) do seek out thermal bodies and show where humans are laid out in a certain area of a map. It doesn’t pinpoint people in the time it does in the game, but it sure as hell exists.
Next time do your homework.
For my Third comment…yes Ryan..the m16 is somewhat overpowered. they need to seriously get the power of the guns right. The m16 is not that powerful in real life, the p90 is more powerful in real life, a pistol that is chambered in a .45 would without a doubt knock someone off their feet! next, the G36c/M4/m16 need to have the same amount of power because…they all fire the 5.56!!! next, oh my favorite…the Barret 50 cal…if you shot this gun and hit someone in the leg…there is like a 60% chance it would blow the leg off!!! yes it is COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY underpowered in cod4 along with the deagle!!!
im not angry…except for the fact that there are all these 5 year old kids talking about putting worthless crap in the game! and yes i do know UAV exist…but you dont see soldiers carrying around a fuckin black berry getting satellite signals trying to see if an enemy is in the room next to him!
im emphasizing with the radar! F FUCKIN Y I
and no im not angry…i just like talking in all CAPS!!!!
Honestly Mole Man, you need to understand the concept of video games. You can’t have every gun being as powerful as it is in real life because that would make it overpowered in a video-game. The M4A1 Carbine in real life is more efficient than an M16A1, yes. Now if they are in the same game with the same damage and accuracy, which will be more preferred? The burst fire or the fully-automatic gun?
Like I said before, do your homework.
And no…im good enough at the game!
For your information…In real life the M4A1 carbine, and the M16A1 transfer the same amount of kenetic energy! WHICH MEANS they have the same power. The M16 is a burst fire rifle and, as you should know, has a longer barrel, which means it is more accurate and has more range! Now little brother M4 over here is fully automatic and with a shorter barrel, is not as accurate and does not have the range of big brother M16! so do you play CQB(hint the M4) or do you play the Field(hint the M16)????
I think your the one who needs to do his homework!
Kids dont know crap these days!
Im not saying that guns should be exactly the same as in real life. however there are some guns in cod4 that they made completely shitty, in which they are not the bad in real life. they just need to up it a bit! thats all.
Hah actually it’s funny because I shoot an AR-15, which is the same thing as an M4, nearly daily.
Secondly, they dont transfer the same amount of kinetic energy except at short ranges because of drop at longer ranges. And yes M16’s have a longer barrel, increasing accuracy, but if you’re going to whine about a video game being balanced or not, thing about what would happen if an M4 had the same damage as an M16 in CoD4. It would completely replace the M16 as the “nub” gun.
Also, an M16A1 is mostly used as fully automatic in wartimes, so don’t say it’s merely burst. Only in the game buddy.
Well mabye if you knew your own gun…in which i really doubt you shoot or even own an AR-15 you’d noe that specific varients of the M16 DO come in a semi and burst combo AND you can also UPGRADE/TWEAK your M16 to fire in a burst mode! AND AS I SAID BEFORE….IM NOT SAYING THAT THE GUNS SHOULD BE EXACTLY THE SAME IN THE GAME AS THEY ARE IN REAL LIFE, HOWEVER, there are some guns in cod4 that they made completely shitty, in which they poorly reflect the real steel version. so dont sit there and make up crap to try and prove me wrong when YOU MISS INTERPRET WHAT IM TRYING TO SAY!!!! NEW TITLE OF FORUM: how people can be so FUCKIN stupid!
Seriously kid, just stop replying. For real. And yes, I do own an AR-15, they only cost about 900-1000 bucks, so I would advise you to invest in one before you talk shit about me not having one.
And yes, M16’s can be burst, semi-auto, or fully-auto. You should read a bit better and see that I said ” Also, an M16A1 is mostly used as fully automatic in wartimes, so don’t say it’s merely burst. Only in the game buddy.”
Notice the “mostly” part.
You should work on your spelling and grammar as well as your knowledge of guns.
I really doubt a 40 year old nerd who sits and stares at this forum all day would own a real gun. secondly you completely underestimate my knowledge of weaponry, being that EVERY FUCKIN PERSON IN MY FAMILY(exculding women) are and have been in the service, in which ive used almost everything you can imagine asshole. i didnt come to this forum to pick a fight fuck face!! i came to give my opinion. And if you have a fuckin problem with it, you can go suck your mothers dick for all i care. your the one that needs to stop replying!
It’s a !Game! If you two are seriously going to fight about something so completely stupid then you really need to get out and meet a girl, or man; I’m not judging. Again, Its a game!
I hope they improve the multiplayer for MW2 and implement a split-screen option for online play much like Halo.
Ok so I have played a bunch of COD4 and COD5, and don’t get me wrong I have had a lot of fun, good solid multiplayer. HOWEVER… I have a problem with the whole idea of “perks”. I like games that at least attempt realism, and as far as I’m concerned real life doesn’t have anything like perks. However, choosing different equipment can be a good substitute and a lot more like real life.
for example:
– Instead of juggernaut, choose body armor for added weight and less mobility
– Instead of stopping power, Hollowpoint rounds for more damage but less penetration.
– Instead of faster reloads, just have your reload speed gradually increase (almost RPG-style)
– Get RID of martyrdom, nobody pulls a nade after they are already dead
– instead of UAV jammmer, use a ghillie suit (less mobility), but modern UAVs can see heat, so they would still see them. I think the radar should be something you have to stop and look at, not glance at on the fly.
– get rid of double tap, guns just can’t do that.
– ETC.
I just think perks are a very artificial way to customize classes; why not do what our real brothers in arms do and customize equipment rather than come up with magic character abilities?
Also (sorry for my novel), I think the recoil needs to be drastically increased on a lot of guns. Having personally owned and shot an M4 and a .45 carbine, I can tell you that spray and pray at 100 yards won’t work, which it does a lot in COD4.
Also, most automatic guns these day are select-fire, why can’t the game devs include this feature? I love a good assault rifle on semi for a lot better accuracy.
Lol mole man, I’m an 18 year old college student first off. Second, 7 of my 8 cousins have been in service, 2 are Marines, 4 were Army, and 1 is now a seal.
I DO own an AR-15 which I payed for myself, but disregarding that, you wouldn’t know either way. I don’t know why I’m still arguing with you, because I know what gun is sitting in its case in my closet, and I know you’re in yours too, dying to get out.
Shut the fuck up old man and get a life.
I wanna see 15 kill streakz enabling you to call in Chuck Norris… … … During which time the other team just dies and respawns and dies again repeatedly till Chuck Norris gets bored and decides they can continue existing again…
And also, NO MORE JUGGERNAUT FOR SHURE!…
Im down for silenced sniperz… I roll too fast for sniperz to line up anywayz lol…
Part of me desperately wants them to get rid of claymores, even though they’re in real life… But in a game based on skill… … … Claymores take absolutely none to get a kill with.
I do wanna see more elevationally diverse maps with better hiding spots and more distance between hills and more frequented parts of the map… Just to add more to the sniper element.
I’d also like more indoor assaulter type maps… I saw a airport/train station type thing going on in the trailer along with a courtyard type screen shot… Maps like that are long over due… Seeing as rainbow 6 and ghost recon have been doing them for ages… And they’re just soooooo flippin suhweet.
Not gonna lie, not sure if I like the idea of vehicles or not… … … I digg the idea, and the fact that it’d add a new element to the game… But at the same time… I’m afraid we’re gonna get sum halo 3 ghost type action where one dood gets it and drives around killing everyone and is at an incredibly unfair advantage over everyone the whole game…
I like the swimming/seals thing tho, adds a new tactical element… Maybe bases with bridges/underwater gates/other such ways in?
And we need a siege mode! For those of you who played the old GR you know what im talking about… 2 teams, 1 goal you have to get to and live for 5 seconds… 1 team defending and 1 assaulting with a fixed set of respawns… … … Best game mode ever…
Anddd, a knives only game mode lol… online style… Cuz I digg that sheit…
@Mole MAN
RADARS ARE REAL DIPSHIT. its just not exact like the ones in games. they dont update every 2 seconds
@Mole MAN
wow mole man if you know so much about guns in real life why dont you open a f****** shop and sell guns or something. and its faggots like you who will suggest too many realistic things into this game. WE JUST WANT A FUN GAME. IF WE WANTED EVERYTHING TO BE REAL WE’D F U C K I N G J O I N T H E A R M Y!!! so fuck off with all your useless knowledge, and stop calling us “kids” unless your some fat real-life Comic Book Store Guy
oh and a search engine thingy like COD: WaW would be cool, so we can search for local games etc.
Some new online gametypes that are more teamwork based would be cool. like each teammate has a certain role to fulfill etc.
Sakkky, if you didnt know how to read, now would be the time to start. you just repeated someone elses comment about six different times. to mole man and king i love nuts, you sound like my girlfriends. i did say that plural.
juggs is for pussies too. if you need extra health, go play halo. if you make excuses for why niggernaut is good, you plainly suck at fps and should stick to barbies dream mansion
