Modern Warfare 2: Your best weapon and perk setup?
Filed under: Gaming, Sony Playstation 3, Xbox 360

Ok, so its been a week now since Modern Warfare 2 was released onto PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. Let me guess, you have been playing non stop, trying to unlock every single thing, while trying to find a setup that suits you. Am I right?
We’d like to know what your favorite weapon and perk setup is at the moment. I have to admit, I’m pretty addicted to MW2 at the moment, so i’ll let you in on my current set up.
I have a M16 Rifle, using the Bling Perk and Holographic sight and silencer. Then with the other two Perks I have Stopping Power and Steady Aim.
I also carry a rocket launcher as my Secondary, as I seem to be the only one whos willing to take out choppas and UAVs.
Do you think you have a better setup? List your favourite Weapon and Perk setup below.
UPDATE: Just thought i’d give you an update on my current setup which averages about 25-30 kills per round on Team Deathmatch Express: –
Primary: AK47 with Fall Camo + Holographic Sight. Secondary: Akimbo Model 1887 shotguns. Perks: Marathon Pro, Stopping Power Pro, Commando Pro.
Deathstreak: Final Stand. KillStreaks: Sentry Gun, Emergency Airdrop, Nuke.
There we have it.

I think the PS3 version of this game has better texture, but runs at a little slower framerate than the XBOX360.
http://www.edepot.com/playstation3.html
If you think 16bit textures compared to the 32bit on the xbox then each to there own.
I have just recently hit my hot streak. I will justify something afterward.
Tar-21. Silencer
(i never use a secondary)
Scavenger pro- cause it’s beast
Cold blooded pro
Ninja pro- yes, to them I’m not supposed to exist.
Final stand
Harrier, chopper gunner, nuke
Now, some of you are gonna yell ‘but the tar sucks!’ and I challenge all of you to try it. I am at least twice as accurate with an iron sight tar than a holographic scar. It could be the high rate of fire, but whatever it is, i am madly in love with it. So far I have come damn close to 2 nukes, and I’ve used it for only 1 day.
I hated the tar but after playing cod mw2 for a month now i tried the tar and i love it!!!
i use the RPD with the grip
im only rank 18 and im doing quite well 
my perks are sleight of hand,stopping power and steady aim
Thats because ur a nooby sprrayer who probably cant live without a gun that has a low ammo capacity or slightly low damage.
Grow up. -.-
ok but seriously…thats the point of the game….kill the enemy before u get killed…call him a sprayer if u want but in the end ur the one who’ll bbe gettin killed by him beacuse u were usin a shitty slow gun with low ammo….
UMP 45 with rapid fire and acog
accuracy, damage, fire rate, and mobility all are filled to the top of the bar with this setup
with the acog the range bar filled 2/3
Matters on the map but sometimes ill swith to the red dot or take rapid fire off and put silencer on
noob set up but im lvl 22 prestige and when you get used to the acog, its better than the AK
you get the UMP at lvl 9 or something
PERKS:
Bling
Hardline, or stpping power, soon to be cold blooded
commando, soon to be Ninja
Killstreaks: UAV, Attack Heli, chopper gunner
very noobish but try it out and once you try it then you can critisize me
right now I have the m16 with the holographic sight and slieght of hand, hardline and steady aim as the three perks. I have final stand as my deathstreak and care package, pred missile and ac130 as killstreaks.
Dude best hardline thing to go with is aug hbar with thermal scope and grip, hardline, steady aim and car package, harrier, and ac 130 or choppeer gunner as ur killstreak
for now since im first pretige lvl 67 i use “m16a4 bling [silencer and red dot],and for a secondary ethier akimbo eagles or models. perks 1. bling 2. stopping power 3. ninja oh these perks can be pro they work beter that way but if u dont its ok. also if ur good like me tell campers to watch out and if u suck watch out for campers. when i get to lvl 70 my class will be “ak47 bling [red dot,silencer] and as my secondary same as above ur choice and the same perks NOTE:SEARCH AND DESTROY CLASS ONLY BEASTLY CLASSES HERE DONT USE FOR ANY THING ELSLE BUT SEARCH AND DESTROY
Wow, you’re SOOOOO good man.
Campers watch out? If they’re any good you don’t have a chance against spawn rapers.
dude, silencer sucks. Let them come, just make sure you know where they’ll come from. Rank only says that you play a lot, not that you play well.
Primary-UMP silenced
Secondary-Stinger(for harriers and shit)
Semtex and stun
marathon( I is a rusher)
lightweight
ninja(for the silent footsteps)
ALL PERKS PRO!
Enjoy
M16 is the noobiest gun in the game :S I’d rather be ganged by riot shields
well siliencer is pretty gud for an UMP because it actually reduces recoil and increases accuracy but limits ur range which sucks for an smg but for lmg’s grip is the best
Pretty Much depends on the map.
If its a close corner map:
M16-Fall Camo-RedDot+FMJs
M1014-Grip-Extended Mags
Perk1-Bling Pro
Perk2-Stopping Power Pro
Perk3-Either Steady Aim Pro/Sitrep Pro
For the larger Maps
MP5K-Fall Camo-Silencer
Akimbo G18
Perk1-Marathon Pro
Perk2-Lightweight Pro
Perk3-Ninja Pro
very rare do i snipe but for those snipers out there
Intervention-Fall Camo-FMJS+Thermal Scope
M1014-Grip+Holographic
Claymores For Equipment instead of Grenades
Perk1-Bling Pro
Perk2-Stopping Power Pro
Perk3-Last Stand Pro
Also I forgot to mention, I play HQ Pro and Demolition in where I average between 35-75 kills a game, it varies between the maps and killstreaks I choose
You rarely snipe but you have fall camo? wow! I am about 60% sniper whenever i play and i still only have red tiger.
@aaron he boosted lol. everyone does. Get a friend and go to 3rd person cage and have them join ur match and itll be 1v1s were u can do anything.
MW2HelpAndTips. you average between 35-75 kills a game??? 75?!!? Daym you’re good.
I use SCAR-H with silencer
spas 12
one man army or marathon pro
lightweight pro
commando pro
final sand
i have emergency airdrop
ac130
nuke
I am lv 58 on my 9th prestige
Well i have my M16 with holo sight stopping power and fmj. its a one shot kill on reg variants and works very well. my gamertag is kaylip4 so hit me up if you wanna play
that set up sounds nice… just started using my acr with silencer and fmj(bling pro)
forever been using light weight and ninja pro perks but I’ll def try the stopping power with fmj.
thanks for the idea
Is this in Modern warfare 2
I mainly use two different type of weapons,
1. RPD as main weapon with grip and spaz-12 for secondary. Throwing knife and stun grenades. Sleight of hand, stopping power and steady aim.
2. M16 with holographic sight and spaz-12. Throwing knife and stun grenades. Sleight of hand, stopping power and steady aim.
My kill streaks are mainly Attack Helicopter, Chopper Gunner and Care Package.
Akimbo P90s with rapid fire, thumper secondary.
bling, stopping power, steady aim.
hii nice setup thng there….
i normally use:
weapons:
aug hbar – red dot & grip,
g18 (not got any attacthments yet)
equipment:
claymores
secondary thingy:
stun grenades
perks:
bling pro,
scavenger pro,

joe, just go away. you probably spend your whole life playing COD and still suck.
JOE, you got OWNED
i woulg own ur assssssss m8………….and i dnt go on it dat much but i still own and lyk i said i would own ur asss so watch ya mouth have u got ps3 or xbox???????????
U dont need a frieken grip on a augbar because before u feel recoil the guy is dead. Unless u spray while aiming like a dumbass.
I have a UMP5 with Red Dot sight and silencer due to my bling – which is now pro – perk. I also have stopping power pro, and steady aim pro. My equipment is a claymore – as enemies always seem to flank me. My killstreak rewards are: UAV, Careb package – Awesome awesome little randomized device – and…meh i forgot the name of the chopper – the heavy armoured one – that you can call after 9 kills. I’m pretty rapeage. In my last game, i got 33 kills, and 3 deaths.
RAPEAGE!!! Lol i didnt kno u could rape ppl on MW2
I have just won the ‘pro’ on the rape perk, it replaces your flash bang with Rohypnol tablets
Somehow they have managed to smuggle a molotov filled with cloroform into the game too.
well im level 70 about to prestige took me 3 days 12 hours should get second prestige this week here is my weapons and perks….
Ak-47-urban camo
Bling pro
either holographic or thermal scope depending on the map
heartbeat sensor
Steady Aim pro
longer breath holds necessary for thermal scope and the ak kinda kicks a little
stopping power pro
stronger bullets against human and vehicles
Tactical insert
best way to hold down a advantagious spot and really good for payback kills
Stun grenade
I think these are better than flash because they slow ur enemy down alowing for a better shot
Secondary Weapons
Akimbo 1883 shotty
essential for clearing out a room full of enemys slow fire rate but awesome power Ive shot through riot sheilds and pain killer deathstreak with these.
Death Streak
final stand
Killstreak
Sentry Gun
Emergency Air Drop
AC-130
My other guns have the exact setup
ACR
M16A1
50 cal- always have the thermal on this
You said you shot through a riot shield with the modals You cant shoot through shields dumb ass!!!
little faggot if you knew anything you would know that a riot shield eventually gives for a few seconds and bullets go through. But i guess you die after 1 kill with a riot
actually u probably just copped their feet tbh as riot shield is impossible to shoot through…..noob tubers own my riot fun =(
I use the scar h with holographic site 2nd stinger and my perks r scavenger steady aim and stopping powder
’stopping powder’ ??
What version of Modern Warfare 2 are you playing dude?
The 17th century one man!! -vintage warfare 2
Stopping Powder increases the amount of gun powder you place into your single fire flintlock pistol and/or Musket for added Pizazz!! HURRAH!!
@#$% that, i have the 18th century one! Now with donkey-kart turrets!! This thing shoots more bullets in a minute than my ass farts out gas in an hour!!
Someone does a tiny typo, and dumb arse kids think they are clever!
those are the words of a balding man i love it when the grandad character kicks in cant wait til im old, oh yeah that jus happened.
mac and sasquatchistan, that’s hilarious.
Muskets and flintlock pistols!

-extra nucular explosive
Stopping Power Pro
scrambler
Mines a bit ‘noob-ish’ but
M4A1 Silencer or ACOG
Frag and Flash
Stopping Power Pro
Sleight Of Hand Pro
Steady Aim Pro
D/S: Martyrdom
K/S: 3 UAV
4 Care Package
7 Harrier
This may sound nooby but works in pretty much any environment
THERMAL SCOPE SUXX
I agree about Thermal Scope..I’m yet to find any advantages to having it equipped.
you just gotta know how to use the thermal scope it makes it a sure shot unles ur trying to get in someones face and shoot em then u can use ur secondary weapon
It kinda suks but all u gotta do is throw a smoke grenade an u see right threw wit it…I dnt use it but its helpful I guess…best perk…..cold blooded pro……hit me up on xbox….frogsinabarrel
UMP45, bling, hardline, steady aim.
Holographic sight, silencer.
ACR, bling, stopping power, steady aim.
heartbeat senor? can’t spell, and silencer.
scar-h w/ holographic sight
glock 18 w/ FMJ
scavenger pro
stopping power pro
scrambler pro
Scrambler is a terrible perk kid, it messes up your opponents radar when you’re near them so pretty much they know when you’re near them, use something else
That doesnt make it bad…
Wow they know your near! They still have no UAV, and having no map in general cuts your awareness in half.
You probably wouldnt know. I`ll assume you run around hip-firing the hole game and are completely ignorant to your radar.
Hey! That strategy is more intense than you think! Do you know how experienced you have to be to master this art-from!?
he’s right actually. as my name says.. all it does is set them up to start hunting you down. i have little to no trouble ever finding who is around me after i know they are there cuz the scrambler. and i normally kill them before they know i’m there… you should use something else and be more open to suggestions.. and be less of a dick.
also.. you should rely on your map as much as you sound like you do.. cold blooded will f*ck your day up.. what good is your map if you dont see anybody on it? except for when some kid comes by with a scrambler so you know they are there. then its good.
The hole game?? What game’s that?
If someone tries to give you some advice, maybe next time you could listen, instead of being sarcastic.
Dude scrambler sucks. Who cares if I cant see my radar? Ever play hardcore? its called listen for your opponent. I’m sure you wouldn’t know how to do that though because you spend all your time playing with no skill in team deathmatch using akmibo p90s
i use scrambler with heartbeat heh heh u know their location when they camp and wait for me with my scrambler =)
The scrambler doesn’t make a lot of sense, invisible with out being in-viz? come on?
I use the tar with a holographic sight and silencer, secondary is now a m93 raffica, just got it and am building it up to use the red dot and silencer. i may go back to pp2000 in that set up though..
1. bling pro
2. coldblooded pro
3. ninja pro
kill streaks uav, sentinel gun, harrier drop
death streak is martyrdom
u wont see me but i’ll see you
Why are so many people mad when your use a tube? Dude I am Lvl 32 and seem to only be comfortable with a tube on my scar or a P90 rapid fire with a red dot or a scope. I can pump a clip or 2 at some one and get shot once and die with them still standing. What am I doing wrong besides sucking?
maybe your perks m8
Lag. Lag. Lag.
You get the drop on them, empty half a clip into them, they turn around and kill you.
Fcking Lag.
just for clarity – what’s a tube?
What I use is a ACR with grenade launcher( I know I’m nubetubing but is still get kills)
Frag grenade.
Perks are scavenger pro
Hardline pro
and commando Pro(last stand stinks because you die anyway)
and my special grenade is flash bang.
So if you got a problem with that suck it up and eat it.
