1-50 here we go, some of its already know, just good to get everything together into one post
1. The ‘First Recon’ class carries a FAMAS along with a hand-cannon to make Dirty Harry blush.
2. The ‘Bling’ perk permits two attachments to be added to your gun, allowing for some extremely powerful combinations.
3. The UAV still appears at a killstreak of three, allowing the player’s team to recon the position of the enemy.
4. The ‘Scrambler’ perk enables the player to jam an enemy’s radar, hiding your team’s position.
5. All perks now have three levels of efficacy. Each perk can be levelled up simply by using it and each tier adds a new effect while keeping the previous one.
6. Players are no longer limited to just grenades occupying the RB/R2/Mouse Button grenade slot. Several other options are now available.
7. The story of Modern Warfare 2 follows on directly from the end of Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
8. All of the single-player campaign maps have at least one multiplayer representation.
9. Each player has a unique callsign card – built around your specific actions in multiplayer – which will flash up for all players when you achieve something special during a match.
10. Throwing knives are now available as an alternative to frag grenades and are one shot, one kill, depending on damage and shield modifiers.
11. A Care Package is dropped in aerially at a killstreak of four and contains a random reward ranging from ammo, through to the AC-130 team-pwning death-shower.
12. Players dying repeatedly will be rewarded with a deathstreak reward, evening the playing field for a short time in any one of a number of different ways.
13. The ‘Commando’ perk gives your player a melee advantage in allowing attacks to be successful from further away.
14. Secondary weapons are no longer restricted to a mere sidearm. Players may carry far beefier guns as their backup. Snipers with shotguns? Oh dear…
15. Blast Shield, a face mask, is available in lieu of grandaes and will offer players some protection from headshots.
16. The ‘Riot Control’ class carries a blast shield making him invulnerable to a limited amount of fire and – almost – one grenade.
17. The word Favela has a military context. Veterans of the Brazilian Canudos Civil War (1895-1896) settled on unclaimed land outside the city. They named it Favela afer a plant that grew commonly on the site of one of the war’s most famous victories.
18. The Predator missile is a player-guided, high-explosive AOE nightmare for your enemy and unlocks at a killstreak of five.
19. Player-equippable RPG launchers such as the AT4 have been altered from their real-life counterparts to allow surface-to-air heat seeking capability, allowing players to take potshots at helos and AC-130s.
20. Sticky bombs can be used instead of frag grenades and will adhere to any surface from walls, to xXxDarCSt4lKRXx’s stupid fat head.
21. The Highrise multiplayer map was designed based on exploits snipers were using to access off-limits rooftops in COD4.
22. The ‘Cold-blooded’ perk makes your player invisible to heat detection.
23. The Copycat deathstreak award gifts the killer’s class, perks and weapons to the victim, giving him an even chance of payback.
24. The ‘Riot Control’ class carries his shield on his back when not in use allowing him some protection from unscrupulous flankers.
25. The tactical insertion flare can be carried in place of grenades and can be dropped creating a temporary respawn point.
26. The helicopter support killstreak makes a return at seven straight kills and is near-identical to that in the previous game.
27. Infinity Ward’s engine has had a huge number of improvements, the main one being texture streaming; a tech that allows larger and busier environments.
28. One of the single-player levels which as-yet has not been shown sees the player using scuba-diving to infiltrate an oil rig.
29. The enemies in Modern Warfare 2 are now no longer infinite and instead have completely new AI which allows them to make clever use of the environement.

29. The enemies in Modern Warfare 2 are now no longer infinite and instead have completely new AI which allows them to make clever use of the environement.
30. Clan tags make a return in Modern Warfare 2, making the likes of JISS, WANC and NOBB quite within the realms of possibility. Again.
31. Apart from the Union Jack on his sleeve, this time out, Cpt. Soap MacTavish looks about as British as Ronald MacDonald.
32. Third-person view is available in certain multiplayer playlists, though not an option in any other game mode.
33. The Insignias which adorn callsigns are many and may be awarded for anything from pwning the opposition to repeatedly falling to your death.
34. The ‘Scavenger’ perk allows the player to recoup ammo and supplies from the corpses of fallen players.
35. Enemy players can stamp out your tactical insertion flares, forcing you to respawn with your squad instead.
36. The Afghan multiplayer map points to the near-certainty that Afghanistan will be a major theatre in the single-player campaign.
37. The ‘Riot Control’ class can be killed from the front by pumping a large quantity of rounds into his shins.
38. Players may choose a short phrase to accompany their callsign. We reckon we can predict pretty much all of them now. Give us strength!
39. The Painkiller deathstreak award offers the victim an increased health bar for a limited time.
40. The ‘Marathon’ perk allows players to sprint indefinitely allowing them to cover a lot of ground while being harder to hit.
41. The PC version of Modern Warfare 2 will not feature dedicated servers – a first for the series and one that has PC players angrier than Captain Caveman.
42. The woodland Spec Ops map has a mansion at its centre which contains a secret room with almost every weapon in the game.
43. It is thought that players will be able to climb all the way to the Jesus statue in Rio.
44. Each level of the single-player campaign was created by a different designer at Infinity Ward in order to add thematic uniqueness.
45. At eleven straight kills, the AC-130 isn’t going to be something you’ll see very often. It is, however, probably the last thing you will see.
46. All real-life guns have been both modelled on the real thing and sound-sampled from test-firings.
47. The future of Modern Warfare 2 in Australia is as yet undecided with the ‘atrocities’ sparking controversy over its MA15+ rating and calling for its ban. Strewth!
48. All of the single-player campaign environments also have thematically identical maps specifically for Spec Ops.
49. During the AC-130 killstreak, the player in remote control of it is vulnerable to attack. The AC-130 itself may also be shot down.
50. The game will be available on 10 November with midnight openings occurring worldwide. We’ll be waiting ‘til morning. Maybe
Hope this helps.
