Modern Warfare 3 Strike Package Classes Revealed in New Vid

Call of Duty: not just for high K/D players anymore.

There used to be an embeded media player here, but it doesn't work anymore. We blame the Tumbeasts.

The team behind Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 came to a conclusion during development: the series was only rewarding players with high kill/death ratios. What’s their solution? Something called the Strike Package classes. Players will be able to play as assault, support, or specialist. Assault awards XP when the player builds up kill streaks, support doles out experience when gamers accumulate streaks with turrets, UAVs and the sort (but they don’t reset), and specialists will earn perks for each time they get two kills in a row. Check out the full details for yourself in the video above.
