Modern Warfare 3 trailer announces 'Strike Package' classes

4.2
A new behind-the-scenes video for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has revealed a new system which should dramatically shake up the game's tried-and-true multiplayer component: Strike Packages. These break the player base down into three classes: Assault, which earns the standard set of offensive killstreaks; Support, which unlocks less offensive killstreaks (like UAVs and turrets), but doesn't have their streak reset upon death; and Specialist, which earns no killstreaks, but unlocks additional Perks every two consecutive kills.

Players can also extend their streaks by not only killing other players, but by capturing objectives or, with the use of a special Perk, providing their teammates with assists. Check out the trailer above to see how this system's being refined for the series' next installment.

The video explains a lot, and it looks great to me. The whole streak/perk thing seems to be something you'd have to play in order to understand. Quite excited now, to play it :)

The amount of complaining that this game is going to inspire will be astounding. From the looks of this trailer, the game looks quite unbalanced lol.

OceanzPredator I'm really confused guys...Is this thing about unlocking a new perk every 2 kills or whatever for Survival Mode? Or all online matchmaking? I pray to god that it's not online matchmaking...Private Message me the answer if you know!

It is online.
But my question is...
Do you lose those perks when you die? Because if you don't that is way over-powered.


you end up losing the perks after you die.. it resets like the assult package
