Field Upgrades and Killstreaks both play an important role in the multiplayer component of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. For those new to the series, gamers who defeat enemies without dying can use bonuses such as UAVs and missile strikes depending upon the number of kills. Field Upgrades are earned over the course of the game, allowing players to utilize specific items to gain an edge in combat. Fans now have a full list of Field Upgrades and Killstreaks available in Modern Warfare 2.

Infinity Ward confirms that players will have the option to choose a Scorestreak system in MW2 instead of Killstreaks, rewarding gamers for focusing on the objective. Once again, all Killstreaks belong to different tiers, and players can only select one from the group. Modern Warfare 2 features the standard options of UAV, Care Package, Cruise Missile, Chopper Gunner, and Gunship in its multiplayer component.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer Killstreaks List
UAV- 4 Kills / 500 Score Bomb Drone - 4 Kills / 500 Score Counter UAV - 5 Kills / 625 Score Cluster Mine - 5 Kills / 625 Score Care Package - 5 Kills / 625 Score Precision Airstrike - 6 Kills / 750 Score Cruise Missile - 6 Kills / 750 Score Mortar Strike - 6 Kills / 750 Score Sentry Gun - 7 Kills / 875 Score SAE - 7 Kills / 875 Score VTOL Jet - 8 Kills / 1,000 Score Overwatch Helo - 8 Kills / 1,000 Score Wheelson-HS - 8 Kills / 1,000 Score Stealth Bomber - 10 Kills / 1,250 Score Chopper Gunner - 10 Kills / 1,250 Score Emergency Airdrop - 10 Kills / 1,250 Score Gunship - 12 Kills / 1,500 Score Advanced UAV - 12 Kills / 1,500 Score Juggernaut - 15 Kills / 1,875 Score
Many of these Killstreaks return from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, so users familiar with that system will feel right at home. The requirements for each Killstreak or Scorestreak are also similar to its counterpart in Modern Warfare. As always, players can select the Hardline Perk in Modern Warfare 2 to reduce the requirement of each Killstreak.
Field Upgrades in MW2 charge over time depending upon their power and utility. Returning Field Upgrades include Trophy System and Dead Silence, with the former useful for destroying up to three oncoming pieces of equipment and the latter utilized for nullifying footstep sounds. Battle Rage is new to MW2 and it gives players an adrenaline rush, allowing them to regenerate health quickly, resist tactical equipment, and go for an aggressive approach thanks to Tactical Sprint being constantly refreshed.

Infinity Ward also confirms that at Rank 45, players will get the option to equip two Field Upgrades at the cost of a slow recharge rate on both of them. This will be useful for fans who don’t want to keep swapping the selected Field Upgrade depending on the Modern Warfare 2 game mode they are playing.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 launches on October 28 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
