Modern Warfare 2 Wiki is Up

[JoMaMaz]

For those who like to saturate themselves with information from upcoming games, you may want to peruse through the Modern Warfare 2 Wiki found here. This is not an official MW2 Wiki, but the information seems to be legit. Most the info is from official Infinity Ward videos/screenshots/media so we can confirm it to be appear to be true. Below is the list of weapons from the Wiki page:

This is a list of all weapons that have been identified in official media for Modern Warfare 2. Definite means that it has been seen clearly in an actual screenshot or video.

* AK-47 (or some other modernized AK-47 variant, definite, seen with either red dot sight or ACOG, equipped with heavily modified furniture)
* Armsel Striker (definite)
* Desert Eagle (definite, seen with a laser and/or flashlight attachment)
* Dragunov (definite, seen with sniper scope)
* FAMAS (definite, seen with red dot sight)
* FN F2000 (possibly a different gun, definite)
* FN FAL (definite, seen with red dot sight)
* Glock 22 (or some other Glock variant, definite)
* H&K UMP (definite, seen with red dot sight)
* Knife (definite, will be used differently to CoD4)
* M4 (or some other AR-15 variant with a sliding stock, definite, seen with just a suppressor in one part, ACOG and Grenade Launcher together in another)
* M16 (or some other AR-15 variant with a solid stock, seen on cover art, highly probable, seen with a red dot sight)
* M21 (highly probable, seen with sniper scope)
* M1911 (definite)
* M249 SAW (possibly FN MAG, definite)
* M60 (seen in flashback to CoD4 during trailer, highly probable)
* W1200 (definite, a modified version maybe)
* Remington 870 (or a very similar shotgun, definite)
* Riot Shield (definite, will be a Perk in multiplayer)
* RPD (definite)
* Skorpion vz. 61 (definite, seen with red dot, can be used while using shield)
* Steyr AUG (definite, seen with scope)
* TDI Vector (definite, seen with no attachment and possibly seen with suppressor)

Fun to look through, and as E3 rolls around along with MW2's release date getting closer, more official information should start pouring out from everywhere very soon.

The knife will be used differently?

Re: Modern Warfare 2 Wiki is Up

I think the creators of the wiki are basing that on the scene in the video where the guy in the white hooded parka is making the big underhand thrust with the knife. They were also talking/speculating about it on some of the BASH podcasts.

Since this isn't an official IW wiki, I'd still take some things with a grain of salt, even if they put "definite" in there. For example:

*FN F2000 (possibly a different gun, definite) - it's "definite", but "possibly different"?

*Riot Shield (definite, will be a Perk in multiplayer) - riot shields are definitely in the SP video, but no info about MP perks has been released AFAIK, so unless they have an inside source, this is more likely speculation.

I agree. However, if it is true about the scorpion and the riot sheild together... :awes

But I'm taking this entire list to be speculation... Anyone remember the 'Monkey Perk' for CoD5?

Re: Modern Warfare 2 Wiki is Up

Anyone remember the RIOT shields from CS 1.5/1.6

Caused hell they did!

The Monkey Perk was real though and Treyarch cut it in the end (HA, like a bald monkey butt) along with the play dead perk.

But, yeah, there will be speculation on this site for sure.

Re: Modern Warfare 2 Wiki is Up

Weren't those perks cut from the final version due to gameplay annoyances?

I mean, it's no fun shooting fallen bodies to ensure that they're really dead.

I dont know about the monkey one, but the playdead was. As they were testing it they found that everyone just shot up all the bodies all the time instead of playing the game.

The riot shield was confirmed for MP Coop in Game Informer.

I've bolded a Key and Interesting word :0

Re: Modern Warfare 2 Wiki is Up

The riot shield was confirmed for MP Coop in Game Informer.

Here's what Game Informer actually says, in the Special Forces section on page 41:

"Riot shields provide ample cover for advancing hostiles."

and

"Riot shields offer significant protection - blasting them to make their wielders stagger, then taking a shot at an exposed body part is often your best bet."

Nothing about it being a perk (as in the wiki). And from the wording above, I think it's still up in the air whether the player will use them, or if enemy NPC's will be using them in those missions.

Re: Modern Warfare 2 Wiki is Up

From what I gathered - and it may not be directly stated - it would be available for player use in COOP missions, but I could be wrong :/

Re: Modern Warfare 2 Wiki is Up

That's an awsome picture there. Any idea if that's in game or rendered?

Nice save. Haha.

no XM8:cry::cry:

Why would this be in the game? Time and time again I see this. The XM8 was tested by the US army, and they didn't like. Therefore, it has an X before the same.
