PC User Finds New Modern Warfare 2 Game Types
November 21, 2009 | 4:36 PM PST



Despite all of the petitions signed by outraged players, Modern Warfare 2 has done pretty damn well for itself on the PC, already out-selling Call of Duty 4. Out of those many PC players, one has found three new game types buried within code in the game.

User "ferrarypt" posted a video on YouTube that clearly shows two new multiplayer modes, and mentions the existence of a third. The first is called "One Flag CTF", and it is just like what it sounds like. A neutral flag is in the center of the map and each team fights to recover it. While there are no definite details in the video about "VIP", one would have to assume that the each team has to defend a certain player while attempting to kill the other team's VIP. But the third game type is by far the most interesting.

"Global Thermonuclear War" is essentially King of the Hill. It has a neutral target in the middle of the map with each team trying to hold the location for 100 seconds. After one team captures the location, a nuke goes off and the game ends.

While very basic game types, one would assume that this would be the first DLC available for Modern Warfare 2. If true, all the DLC would be is an unlock key, since the modes are obviously in the game already. There is the possibility that these are simply game types that were cut from the final shipping product and won't be future DLC, but no one knows for sure.

Please beware of the bad grammar and mild language in the video below.
