Also a few more details


Fans of the first Modern Warfare will be happy to know that one of its major characters, Sergeant John "Soap" MacTavish, returns as the captain of an international group called Task Force 141 -- but he'll be an NPC this time around.


the sequel "continues the narrative begun in Modern Warfare, with the world facing dangerous political instability in Russia." A terrorist group aims to use Russia's political turmoil to their advantage to secure the troubled empire's weapon stockpiles. Makarov, the leader of that group, also happens to be an associate of Zakhaev, the man responsible for the first games' nuclear attack.

The feature goes on to detail an expedition Soap leads through treacherous mountains in which he fights against Russians in snowy terrain with the help of thermal vision, snowmobiles, and ice picks (used for climbing along the environment). Jason West, president and CTO of Infinity Ward, states, "The gameplay is wide open and has a lot of variety. In terms of the story... well, any good story is on rails." He also estimates that the campaign will be just as lengthy as its predecessor's.

Unfortunately, Game Informer also reveals that a co-op campaign won't be available. West explains, "We did a lot of co-op stuff early on that we were interested in, [but] it didn't work with the story mode at all."

The article ends with a description of a new Special Forces Mode (similar to the Mile High Club mission at the end of the first game) and discloses that Task Force 141 will bring the fight to Rio de Janeiro and Afganistan as well. For images from and discussion about the Game Informer story, head over to the 1UP boards.

That's completely unconfirmed and probably false imo.

That's completely unconfirmed and probably false imo.

They will probably have something after the last level, but I doubt its nazi zombies.

"Infinity Ward Debunks Rumored Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Features
Blood, guts and vehicles may be in Modern Warfare 2, but Infinity Ward isn't saying yet.
By Patrick Klepek, 03/04/2009


If you were hoping yesterday's surprise reveals from an anonymous play tester "leaking" word Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 would include vehicles and blood, stand down.
Infinity Ward took to the NeoGAF message boards to debunk the list.
"People. This list is fake," posted Infinity Ward programmer Rayme "Rayme" Vinson. "I mean; I can't get into how-much-if-any is true, how much is false, etc (there's a reason why companies "don't comment on rumors"... it would NEVER F***ING END), but this list wasn't put together by anyone with any insider information. There's also some craziness that should red-flag this as "stuff I made up and wrote down" (like grass camo for snipers... that's straight out of CoD4 MP)."
Vinson was backed up by studio community manager Robert "fourzerotwo" Bowling.
"I preferred when rumors were ground breaking, like when we were making that Sci-fi Stealth Assassin game in space," joked Bowling."

Then again who knows if this is even real =S
