Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Season 2 will feature timing changes to the Perk System.
After delaying the release of Season 2 to Feb. 15, Infinity Ward and Raven Software revealed all the upcoming updates to Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0.
The Perk System in Modern Warfare 2 differs from the franchise's original system. Players can choose four Perks, but only two are active at the start of a match. The bonus and Ultimate Perks are earned as the match progresses. The timed Perks have received a lot of criticism from the community.
Here's a breakdown of the Perk changes coming in Season 2.
Modern Warfare 2 Season 2 Perk Changes
Although the developers acknowledged the feedback regarding the timed Perks, the system will still not allow four active Perks at the start of a match. Instead, the bonus and ultimate Perks will now be earned at a faster rate.
Infinity Ward reduced the cost of bonus Perks by 50% and the cost of Ultimate Perks by 25%. Players will no longer have to wait as long to earn their third and fourth Perks.
The Ghost Perk will remain an ultimate Perk. Infinity Ward considered swapping the Ghost Perk's position, but the change created a "severe imbalance in the Perk System." At least with these new adjusments, players will be able to earn Ghost quicker in matches.
