Modern Warfare 2 - Tips Tricks and Tactics

This perk slot seems to be the most important in my eye and each of these perks has a great impact in the game. Some can even be the difference between dying and not dying. In this slot there are:

• Stopping power
• Lightweight
• Hardline
• Cold Blooded
• Danger Close

Stopping power
In my opinion this could very well be the most used and also the best perk in the game. This can be the difference between getting owned or owning. This can be used very well on any gun and all it does is simply add more damage to your gun. The pro version of this comes in no use to me as when killstreaks appear I normally change class to destroy them instantly. In all, this is one awesome perk that gives an advantage on any other player.


Lightweight

Lightweight can come in very useful for certain gamemodes and also for run and gunning. Lightweight makes the user run faster than he normally would. This perk coupled with marathon makes a great package that can be used very well in game types such as capture the flag and sabotage because if you can get around faster then you can capture the flag/blow up the bomb faster.I would recommend using this perk with a high mobility gun as well so you run the fastest you can. The pro version of this perk come in very handy one you unlock it as you will be sprinting many places so having the ability to aim faster after sprinting gives you a big advantage over the other player.

Hardline
I used hardline alot when I was a lower level as all the killstreaks were unlocked at less kills. I Thought "great!" but as I got higher and higher levels I realized that You still need the same amount of kills to get to your next killstreak. For example if you have hardline on and you get a predator at 4 kills, you still need 2 more for a harrier. So I then used a different perk instead. This perk can be good for people wanting a very low killstreak setup but if you are going for the nuke I would recommend using a different perk such as stopping power or cold blooded.

Cold-Blooded
Cold-Blooded is another perk that is highly used on more stealthy classes as this protects you very well from killstreaks and you are invisible to the UAV. This can come in very handy in search and destroy game modes. This can go well with marathon as the unlimited sprint and invisibility makes you a ninja, and if you use ninja as the third perk the pro ability is silent footsteps which come in extremely useful. I always use this on one of my classes which is simply called destroy. This class is used to take out all enemy killstreaks that the other team call in this comes in very very useful as an active killstreak is a dangerous one.

Danger close
This perk gives all explosives a higher amount of damage. I use this alot on classes with noob tubes as it greatly affects the number of players you can kill. The noob tube is used alot on many game modes as it is a favorite weapon of chose to kill people with at the start (spawn tubing). But the pro ability is what makes this perk great. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you have a chopper gunner and you are not on a killstreak anymore I would greatly recommend changing to danger close pro as the chopper will kill alot more people.
