Modern Warfare 2 Co-Op Mission Details and Waves Mode Unveiled

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo September 27th, 2009 at 2:54 PM

We're only a little over a month away from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's release, yet we still don't know too much regarding the game's two player co-op mode called Spec-Ops. Community manager Robert Bowling decided to answer some user questions via Twitter and there's some new information leaking out regarding this mode.

The first bit of information regards the mode's gameplay length. We've heard rumors that it should be a bit longer than the single player, but now we know why. According to Bowling each Spec Ops mission offers three available stars, one for each difficulty level. Bowling stated there were 69 total stars available bringing the mission count in spec ops to 23. There's nothing specific there as to the length, but Bowling stated that trying to achieve all three stars on each mission will add to the length.

Another bit of news regarding the Spec Ops missions are the variety. There appears to be variety of mission types and objectives, including a "waves" mode which we assume to be like Horde and Firefight in terms of gameplay. Other details above and beyond that aren't available...yet.

We'll be keeping an eye on Twitter for more information as it becomes available.

i cant wait for this to come out. Me and my boy always have to play TDM in order to do some sort of COOP and it doesnt really satisfy us. So reading about Spec Ops and a "wave mode" (hopefully 4 players like ODST?) really gets me excited for this game

I had heard they would have different modes in Spec-Ops, but for some reason I did not expect a horde mode. This is good news.

Udderman, try Search and Destroy, I get more of a co-op feeling from that. (though only co-op REALLY feels like co-op)

What is the difference between facebook and twitter? I have thought about getting a twitter, because there is so much buzz about how great it is. It seems to be similar to facebook, because you see what everyone else is doing. So whats so cool about it?

Essentially twitter is the status updates section from facebook. It's all about tweeting (posting) short messages to all of your followers (friends/subscribers).

It's difficult to understand the fuss, so I suggest you head on over to twitter and start following one of your fav famous people or game developers.

You'll soon understand what it is a massive success. I just follow several people, and get little updates from them every now and then. It's a great way to keep as up to date with them as you possibly can.
