Modern Warfare 2: Your best weapon and perk setup?

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.

    • ThePwnage says:

      If you think 16bit textures compared to the 32bit on the xbox then each to there own. :P

      • Astynax7 says:

        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.

    • conor says:

      i use the RPD with the grip
      my perks are sleight of hand,stopping power and steady aim :) im only rank 18 and im doing quite well :)

      • UrNoob says:

        Thats because ur a nooby sprrayer who probably cant live without a gun that has a low ammo capacity or slightly low damage.

        • Steve says:

          Grow up. -.-

        • Anuj says:

          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….

    • nstaff23 says:

      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

  2. C McK 95 says:

    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.

    • Ryan1254 says:

      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

      • joe says:

        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

        • Luke says:

          Wow, you’re SOOOOO good man.

          Campers watch out? If they’re any good you don’t have a chance against spawn rapers.

        • ThatGuy says:

          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.

        • Brandon says:

          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 :)

        • Steve says:

          M16 is the noobiest gun in the game :S I’d rather be ganged by riot shields

        • Anuj says:

          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

        • aaron says:

          You rarely snipe but you have fall camo? wow! I am about 60% sniper whenever i play and i still only have red tiger.

        • Patrick says:

          @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.

        • Bob says:

          MW2HelpAndTips. you average between 35-75 kills a game??? 75?!!? Daym you’re good.

        • Gabriel says:

          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

    • kaylip4 says:

      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

      • salduccii42 says:

        forever been using light weight and ninja pro perks but I’ll def try the stopping power with fmj.

        thanks for the idea

    • Drew says:

  3. katsumoto says:

    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.

  4. Bobo says:

  5. Terris says:

    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.

    • Rob Oggie says:

    • Steven says:

      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

      Killstreak

      • jason says:

        You said you shot through a riot shield with the modals You cant shoot through shields dumb ass!!!

        • Patrick says:

          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

        • shadow-str1ke(psn name) says:

          actually u probably just copped their feet tbh as riot shield is impossible to shoot through…..noob tubers own my riot fun =(

    THERMAL SCOPE SUXX

    • Alan Ng says:

      I agree about Thermal Scope..I’m yet to find any advantages to having it equipped.

      • Steven says:

        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

      • frogsinabarrel says:

        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

  9. neck says:

    Holographic sight, silencer.

    ACR, bling, stopping power, steady aim.
    heartbeat senor? can’t spell, and silencer.

  10. dex says:

    scar-h w/ holographic sight
    glock 18 w/ FMJ
    scavenger pro
    stopping power pro
    scrambler pro

    • Trench Coat says:

      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

      • shazbot says:

        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.

        • sasquatchistan says:

          Hey! That strategy is more intense than you think! Do you know how experienced you have to be to master this art-from!?

        • Youre pretty stupid, he's right. says:

          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.

        • you're still stupid, he's right says:

          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.

        • Luke says:

          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.

        • afairmandavis says:

          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

      • shadow-str1ke(psn name) says:

        i use scrambler with heartbeat heh heh u know their location when they camp and wait for me with my scrambler =)

    • Klam Dip says:

      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

      • Sh!thead says:

        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?

        • Perks says:

          maybe your perks m8 :D

        • I Try To B Nice says:

          Lag. Lag. Lag.
          You get the drop on them, empty half a clip into them, they turn around and kill you.
          Fcking Lag.

        • Tube??? says:

          just for clarity – what’s a tube?

        • BEn says:

          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.
