A Comprehensive Look at the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Teaser

Post Updated: Friday, March 27th – 10:57PM – So if you were leaving comments on this page or have been brought here by another site, re-check out this post and make sure it is complete, even right now I’m still adding stuff. Thanks for all the feedback, I can’t wait for Infinity Ward to send out another clip to take away more time out of all our lives ;)

——-

Before reading this run down, check out the teaser first, then read on (I embedded the video below, however, I would recommend seeing it from Infinity Ward because of the awesome “analyze” button where you can freeze and zoom in clearly). My favorite way to watch this has now become right off my 360, click here to automatically add this video do your download queue and the next time you turn on your Xbox, it will begin downloading.

Basically Infinity Ward has given many shooter fans blue balls with this teaser. Not being able to sleep with my balls in this condition has led me to write out as much as I can about this video, and hopefully and missing spots can be pointed out by you.

First thing is the sweetness and comfort from the IW logo and some cool visualization work going on with a night goggles look. Then it starts…
0:13 – Car horns honking, unsure if this starts outside or we can just hear outside.
0:19 – You can clearly hear the word “Subway”
While I keep reading everywhere that this is an airport, Jared commented below that it is a subway station in Japan with this video provided.
0:22 – “Attention customers, Do not leave bags unattended”
Now Yoshi has commented below on something I had to re-listen to extremely closely, but I do hear it… the woman definitely says something about “Flight number 25..” right before the elevator doors are closing.
0:29 – Elevator ‘ding’
0:34 – Elevator door closes, you can see three people inside the elevator with some text above the the person on the right.



0:36 – “Ellelator go up, ellelator go down
0:38 – Bag is dropped, zipper is open, stuff is happening!
0:46 – L1 floor ‘ding’

0:50 – Gun is cocked, seriously, now shit is going to hit the fan!

0:53 – M floor ‘ding’

0:57 – You are behind some Russians that are either with you are unaware that bad ass stuff is about to happen.

1:00 – 1 floor ‘ding’

1:02 – *clears throat*
1:04 – Guy on the left says “slimy ball” !? Certainly this is code for “fan being hit with shit soon”

Honestly, i’m not sure what that guy said, but zhe commented below that he says “S nami bog” which is Russian for “God is with us” (”С нами Бог”).


1:08 – 2 floor ‘ding’ and one of the men saying “Remember… the Russian” OR “Remember.. no Russian”
Others believe he is saying “Remember, no rushing”

1:12 – Exiting the elevator. Security signs are directly in front. There is people around. Top right hand corner shows something way noteworthy, five icons, the first one being very recognizable as the “Stopping Power” perk.

TheLastDestroyer posted on the Official EU Playstation forums a closer look at that perks picture:

So it is definitely Stopping Power first. Then some sort of winged foot second. Knives third. And.. is that.. the Portal icon!? I can’t tell what it is. The last box is obviously an arrow, but I do wonder why it is larger than the other boxes.

Richard Garcia commented below saying about the fourth perk is looking like a nuclear blast where as IcarusAbides is going with supply/ammo drop.

moomin has commented that the winged foot is possibly a rebranding of the Extreme Conditioning perk (using the Talaria, or ‘Winged Sandels’). The third perk being unknown, but the icon looking like a ‘Gurkha‘ icon. (Good catches!)

oO MR MAYHEM Oo commented with the third perk being two guns crossed, and the new icon for Overkill.

Spectre is saying fourth perk is a blurred heart, and possibly Revive (from World at War).

The fith icon has lots of theories. It might not be a perk at all, it might be a new way to select perks, it might have something to do with elevator usage in the game. We all can agree it is slightly larger than the other boxes and is confusing everybody.

1:19 – Ka Boom.


At this point the video goes into a montage of lots of stuff that you just have to freeze frame to catch it all. Below is a bunch of stills I took, with some way obvious stuff to the just plain weird.




Johnny who commented below, claims that I am wrong about my Jesus love, but it is in fact the Angel of the North in Gateshead, England… what do you think?



On closer inspection of the water mine, moomin, the man who has possibly looked at this video more than myself, comes through saying that it looks like a body floating, and attatched the below picture (also noting the landing pad and/or Monopoly board in the background….which I will personally add I think might be a trampoline!)


1:52 – Russian is spoken. delirium from GAF has someone who has told him they are saying “God is with us” and “A revolution is not possible without a revolutionary situation.” Some commenters from GameTrailers have put “evolution is impossible without a revolution” and “devolution is impossible without a devolutionary situation” (something tells me the last guy hit the “D” key instead of “R” though.. but I’ll leave out no guesses!)



When looking through those pictures to gather anything, I believe some of the game will be taking place in South America based on the Jesus statue (credit to soultron on GAF who caught Jesus, and I believe is right). The houses that seem to be on a hill, reminding me very much of housing I have seen in Ecuador and also I am familiar with from Brazilian flicks.

We also have the guy in the elevator speaking of the Russian, so I guess we can look forward to some more gray levels.

New perks? Maybe some of these images (1:12) are from WaW and I don’t recognize them. But I think it is a given that we will see new perks.

Lots of vehicles shown in the montage, but no dogs. I didn’t point every single one of them out in the above pictures, but I think we will also see a helicopter every other minute in the game based on how many were in those flashes of images/video.

What did I miss? What did I get wrong? What the hell is a teddy bear doing in there?

UPDATES/ADDITIONS:

User moomin from the Insane-Ingame forums posted a couple of things I missed (good catches moomin!):


Possible snow map.


Submarine.



One of the bigger things I completely missed but everyone caught, was the scuba divers. Thanks john for commenting with this image:

cerberus4417 commented below, making a connection with a water theme (warships, submarine, scuba divers, oil rig).

    Good job in compiling all of this,
    i missed so much of the stuff yoi pointed out, thanks.

    • Ricardo Garcia PSN: The-Jackal-1563 says:

      If you notice perk 4th, it clearly states a nuclear blast with the mushrooom efect and the ‘ring” around it…

      • IcarusAbides says:

        Dont think it does, looks like some sort of supply or ammo drop.

      • l3ullhead says:

        Im just going to go on a whim here and say that there are not 5 perks but only 4. And I have my reasons to back that up.

        First the four signs that are showing ” possible ” perks are the same in design and size. The fifth is not.

        Every single Call of Duty perk ” picture ” has someone what of a actual description in the pictre it self. ie; Extreme conditioning has a guy in running stance with arrows coming off his back witch implies he is running. And the fifth perk does no such thing, its just an arrow pointing down. Now why would IW make all their perk pictures have the same guality of description and not this one?

        Finally it is a Airport sign telling you which terminal to go to. In this case its in the direction posted, but instead of a name for the terminal like you would find next to the arrow, IW has replaced it with perk icons to give a little teaser.

        heres the link to describe the pic.
        https://www.shutterpoint.com/photos/A/20090318_200903_Airportsign%20-%2002_view.jpg

    • Ryan says:

      There were teddy bears in MW actually. i remember one being on Ambush. Not sure what it means tho. Maybe Ambush will make a return?

      • IcarusAbides says:

        I just meant giant ones.

      • >MTC says:

        the teddy bear is in EVERY level in COD4 Multiplayer, not jsut a single map, which stated above is some sort of funny the makers added for a joke.. or its a trade mark either or it pretty much means nothing

        • walkow24 says:

          Yes not only are the teddy bears in the COD4 maps,but it is also in the COD:WAW Zombie Verruckt map from the new map pack release. Im guessing it has just become a trademark of COD. Its never just a clean bear either, always worn, bloody, and destroyed. Probably just showing that war destroys everything, including homes and any belongings inside. Nobody, including children, are safe.

      • Cason says:

        no there were teddy bears on every single map. meand my friends checked everyone and found to or three on each

        • DannyG259 says:

          Tebby Bears Arent Just In CoD:WaW And CoD:MW I Remember Finding An Easter Egg In CoD: Finest Hour (First One I Think) On The PlayStation2 Where I Found A Room With A Teddy In It I Picked It Up And It Gave Special/Lots Of Grenades

    • Igneosaur says:

      Wow, amazing analysis, just one bone to pick though; The Jesus is clearly not the Angel of the North, the shape is COMPLETELY different. It is (almost positively) “Christ the redeemer” in Rio de Janerio, and what would even more confirm this is the fact that there was a snapshot of what you called “houses”, but they were on a very steep hill and look identical to the Rio favelas.

      Just my two cents, cheers.

    • Remidev says:

      as you pointed out at 34 seconds in you see some text, but at 1:28 you see the same text only clearer to the left of all the perks… i cant quite figure out what it says but here is what i think it looks like пункт проверкн безолаcноетн it may not even be russain tho in which case i would be completly wrong

    • xIIChunkz says:

      On closer inspection of the water mine, moomin, the man who has possibly looked at this video more than myself, comes through saying that it looks like a body floating, and attatched the below picture (also noting the landing pad and/or Monopoly board in the background….which I will personally add I think might be a trampoline!)

      The ‘floating body’ is actually a scuba diver. The same one that is mentioned at the end, infact.
      This one:

    • Paul says:

      the text in the video is definitely in russian cause when i try 2 write it out nd say it it sounds like a slovic language

    • i think the whole revolution with out revolutionary situation mean espionage by russians in russia, possibly a former USSR sect (KGB?) that we get to fight against as Russian Agents. KGB is literally Комитет государственной безопасности. That last word looks very similar if not identical to the word in the teaser. Also the FSB as a successor to it might also be the “enemy”. I’m thinking its a polital assasination to encite revolution in Russia because of the failed Nuke attempt from COD4 that we have to stop as good Russians…:-) Don’t know how brazil ties in though…

      • also KGB commonly known as State Security Agency…and there was alot of security signs in the teaser as well

        and they could tie in the Cambridge Five to bring the UK into the picture making the Angel theory more plausible

      • canadiansmartass says:

        brazil ties in if u want to send a short range nuclear missle if u are to perhaps aim for the US

    • Ross says:

      The 3rd perk i thought could be a sort of Counter-Knife perk, so press a button to counter the knife, sounds useless but might help.

    • Deep Fn Purple says:

      Ok here’s my take on the teddy bear, remember in cod 5 WAW in the zombie mode. Well in that mode on the new zombie map there is a mystery box that allows you to purchase a random gun for a price. Sometimes when you buy a gun a teddy bear will appear out of the box instead which caused the box to move to a random place on the map. Maybe it’s a shot at trey arch for putting that damn bear in the game or maybe it’s a hint to a similar mode in MW2? Just my thoughts, let me know what you guys think.

    • TheDirtyGoatee says:

      Don’t know if it’s been said yet but that “Jesus” appearance might actually be the Rio de Janeiro Statue.

      Also, I already pre-ordered the collectors edition of this game. Means I get a special gun and the last gun availble in the game right from the start. Plus, double XP the first week. Booyah! I’m on PS3 and my gamertag is MSP1660.

    • l33twaffle says:

      i think the third perk might be two attachments. i also think the “portal symbol” is either a refurbrished deep impact or expolsive bullets. don’t laugh, either. you name ‘em, they got ‘em.

  2. Jonnhy says:

    thats not JESUS thats the angel of north in Newcastle UK!! HAHA Just imagine though…… lol

    http://leedsdna.info/HUGO/2004/newcastle.htm

    • Mike Masashi Murakami III says:

      Interesting, I’m torn between thinking it is Christ the Redeemer statue (from Brazil) and the one you just mentioned. The arms don’t look big enough to be the one you mentioned.. but.. the shape of the arms definitely matches the one you put more so.

    • Justin says:

      Yeah, I’m sorry but that is 100% the Christ the Redeemer statue. Not only does it look 100% like it, but it’s also sitting at the top of a mountain AND it doesn’t look like that Newcastle statue.

      The wings on the Newcastle statue go from shoulder to hips. The full torso. The image in the teaser does not.

      Also, the image of the “houses” are a shanty town, just like the ones in Rio de Janeiro (where the Christ statue is). Do a google images search. You’ll see ones just like the teaser footage.

  3. lee says:

    nice job lol…if you play cod 4 on playstation 3,add me,my psn is evilpizzacandy…but yea i love this trailer…i mean they couldve shown a teddy bear with a bullet going through the head and people would ve gone nuts,infinity ward is just that epic…no other comes close…i doubt even final fantasy could do this…final fantasy 13s debut trailer was ok but no where this epic

  4. Bratti says:

    he sais : rembember, they’re russian

    • Terry says:

      yes but maby its a global threat and many countries are involved

    • Nolan says:

      I think he says “remember, no russians” as in “don’t kill any of the russians”, which makes me thinks that the guy speaking is working for the russians.

      • haha madness says:

        ive heard a few about that bit:

        remember, NO russians. (dnt kill any russians)

        remember, WE’RE russians. (in case they capture them)

        remember, THEY’RE russians. (pissed off muslims or something like that about to shoot someone)

        why is modern warfare so obsessed with russians? put some f**king aussies in there… YEEWWWW!!! aussies clean up and own everyone else!!!! hahahaha

      • Chris says:

        i think that he is saying remember no Russian telling his friends not to speak Russian so the country they are in wont know where they are from

  5. Danzel says:

    it seems like the scene which appears to show 5 icons… is really 4 and the arrow seems to kinda fit in with actual area the scene takes place in and it seems like that whole elevator sense is ripped out of the game since its in a first person view… and back to the icons… maybe a hint at 4 perks campaign and multiplayer like CoD:WaW?? just an observation… dont know how right it is…

  6. TheLastDestroyer says:

    Hey guys,

    Thanks for putting me in your article! was very surprised :)

    Nice job on the analysis though.

  7. Jared says:

    in the beginning it is of a subway station in Japan…. the reason I know this is because I lived there for three years and it just sounded really familiar.
    if you listen you can hear the lady in this video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysY67HVE6HU and it sounds almost the exact same to MW2 vid.

  8. zhe says:

    It was not “slimy ball” (or whatever). It was “S nami bog”. I means “God is with us” on russian (“С нами Бог”).

    The other guy answers “Remember, no russian”. It means, that he asks him not to speak russian.

    • ButteredBisquit says:

      Good catch…I went back and that is what it sounded like to me too!

      Good Job

    • WolfC4ke says:

      I agree, ‘no russian’ makes sense for a setup/frame attempt, as doing so would blow their cover/origin.

    • Greg says:

      Or he meant: do not kill any russsian ppl.

    • Jack says:

      no greg it is not “do not kill any russians” becuase if u notice the first man says “god is with us” in russian and then the second man changes into english and syas something…why would he switch to english if he was going to say “dont kill any russians”

  9. Moomin says:

    Thanks for the mention! I think I’ll have to disagree with the suggestion that it could be the Angel of the North, definitely looks like the ‘O Cristo Redentor’.

    Regarding the perks, my thought is that the 2nd Perk, is just a rebranding of Extreme Conditioning because that logo is the symbol for ‘Talaria’ (Winged Sandals) which means the wearer can fly through the air like a bird.

    The third perk looks like the symbol for the Gurkhas, with the two Khukri knives crossed. I can’t think of a perk that exists already or something else that would suit though!

    I can’t work our what the 4th one is at all, reminds me of Portal for some reason. The 5th one I think is just an arrow that you’d see in a normal airport situation, to try and make the perks blend in a bit more, as if they’re part of a signage!

    • WolfC4ke says:

      my 5 cents:

      1st Stopping Power

      2nd Faster Sprint

      3rd No Knives (metal detectors at security? ceramic weapons might get through)

      4th Thought it could be martyrdom though grenades would also be caught by metal detectors)

      Could be extra damage from falls?
      Might make sense to balance two ‘Perks’ with two ‘Cons’ to spice things up?
      Therefore if you want Stopping Power online or in campaign, you get no knife
      & if you want a Faster Sprint you get extra damage from falls.

      5th yup my thoughts are an airport sign in background.

    • mtcboyle says:

      my ideas

      1)Stopping Power
      2)i have no freaking idea lol
      3)either more knife dmge or faster knife strikes
      4)Sonic Boom (higher explosive dmge)
      5)means nothing to me either

      • Blackout376 says:

        i’m definitely gonna have to agree and say that the one that looks like a nuke is probably sonic boom/fireworks redone

    • haha madness says:

      NO NO NO NO NO

      ITS ME IN THAT PART

      NOT CHRIST

      NOT BILL GATES

      ME ME ME ME

  10. Moomin says:

    A closer look at the Teddy Bear screenshot, show that it’s not a ‘Water Mine’ as you’ve suggested, but looks like a body to me: http://i40.tinypic.com/2vl1s01.png and in the background it appears to be a helicopter landing pad (Almosts looks like a Monopoly board :-p)?

  11. Yoshi says:

    Just after the elevator opens it says somethin like ‘all boardin for flight (flight number)

    So gives the hint they are in an airport

  12. humi1981 says:

    the foot with wings is “extream condition” perk for sure

  13. Tom says:

    That is Jesus in Rio De Jianiero. It is very clear when you zoom in.

  14. Brandon says:

    the teddy bear probably has something to do with a zombie mode as in the map pack sometimes the teddy bear appears when you use the magic box thing. It looks exactly the same as that teddy bear…

  15. John says:

    I think we are also getting a hint that there is going to be a Modern Warefare 3 coming out. Just look at the clip time at 96.363. You see the letter M followed by the number 1 then number 2 (which ends up being circled and highlighted) then the number 3.

  16. garvan says:

    That could posssibly be a prelude to the last mission in COD 4. The Russians might have stolen a plane from the airport and thats why there wasn’t too many passengers on it in the last Mission? Just a guess really?Thzy might remake the last level again in this cause people have been saying that this game starts off exactly rom where hte last one ended

  17. cerberus4417 says:

    The picture you show with the teddy bear, if you zoom into the item next to it on he right you will see it is not a mine but a diver. There is also a section where you see the attack helo’s, in the bottom right you will find another diver.

    A lot of nautical items. Warships, a Sub, Divers, Oil Rig.

  18. John says:

    Also looks like we have an under water mission. The guy in this still frame is wearing scuba gear.

  20. Akai-Hoshi says:

    perk 4 looks like a nuke

  21. hello says:

    that so called statue of christ looks an awful lot like a plane to me.

  22. Vash says:

    Teddy Bear… means zombie type game mode in MW2, ya know like the one in W@W.

    • Again I don’t think your right. Because in previous CoD such as the first the teddy bear was an easter egg which also gave you health.

    • hoosier7 says:

      i’d say the bear represents that there may still be parts of cod4 as the bears were often scattered round in 4, it defo has planes (airports), rio and russians, i think it could be terrorism related, MAINLY I THINK THE COLD WAR, seems likely to me, ships russians planes, (russia sponcered a lot of terrorism) adds up in my eyes, seems so much like the tom clancy books the hunt for red october and red storm rising, the ones used to base the game end war on

    • LMAO cold war…warfare. Russians are definatly in it but im pretty sure their the good guys, i mean we are following THEM behind in first person in the elevator and pehaps the last level of MW 1 is the first level of this one. that will tie in with the whole airport thing and everything.

  23. Omen says:

    Maybe the arrow perk is larger because that is the one currently selected?
    Maybe there is a different way of using perks?

  24. Spectre says:

    the 4th perk kinda looks like a blurred heart so maybe revive like in WAW?

  25. happysock says:

    One other thing i think you missed is there are scuba divers in the video at about 1:24.52 minutes about mid screen a bit to the right and 1:21.93 at the bottom right possibly hinting the SBS rather than the SAS of cod 4, also the last symbol on the perk board although i’m sorry to dissapoint it is not another perk but a sign pointing to the exit lol also a theory i heard somewhere was that the 3rd one was double tap :S and the 4th one possibly martydom

  26. RonanN1 says:

    you are missing the first words – japanese

  27. Balaamsafe says:

    The teddy bear is from COD:WAW zombie mode, when you gamble on the random weapons box you sometimes get a useless teddy bear. A nod that there will be a zombie or equivalent mode?

    • BlazeFenix says:

      Actually, the Teddy Bears were also in CoD4, they are hidden throughout the levels. I think the Teddy Bear in W@W was a bit of homage to IW.

  28. tyler says:

    I honestly think elavators are going to be a component in multiplayer so maybe the arrow down perk is go down an elavator faster. maybe?

  29. Johnny B says:

    If you look right around 1.23.33 there seems to be what I make out to be a body cut in half in the middle right hand part of the screen. As you cycle through the frames forwards it flickers brighter. I dont know for sure if its a body though….

    • Johnny B says:

      Also, at 1.23.99 there looks to be a tank, or some other type of vehicle stuck in what seems to be a swamp, verrryy reminiscent of the bog level….
      At 1.25.30 in the bottom right corner there is a fence, and what look to be silhouettes of people with guns. It looks like, judging by the structures behind the fence, that they are in a shipping yard of some sort. Similar to the shipment multiplayer level, and the beginning shipping level on the boat.
      Actually, on 1.25.56, if you look on the left there are containers and it looks like the tarmac of an airport or something, along with possible hangar structures.
      Finally there is an odd structure in the middle of that frame which looks like the staircases used for people to board small planes from the tarmac.

  30. Bravo says:

    The elevator will be in multiplayer but i personnally think the arrow will be last stand.

  31. ScorpioN says:

    I believe that in the perks frame, only the 4 squares on the left are perks, the last one with an arrow is only an arror indicating a way (maybe to the security) in that room. As for the perk with the portal like icon… could be like an airstrike or something :P

  32. devanyo says:

    i think the first perk is for sure stopping power, the second either allows you to run faster, or jump higher/farther. the third might be a longer reach for melee attacks? and the fourth? well, my HOPE is that it does relate to portal. drop a companion cube on them?

  33. Dr Strange Lulz says:

    As they’re coming out of the elevator you see SECURITY written above them, next to that however is Пункт проверки безопасности which is Russian for Security Check Point. So I’m assuming the airport is in Russia.

    • KAIZER SOSA says:

      Actually I just came up with an interesting thoery. As you state it is a Russian Airport, now the guys in the elevator were infact russian. Well maybe he did say “Remember, no russian” as in don’t speak a word in your native langauge as they could be posing as Americans making a terrorist attack on Russia sparking some sort of global conflict between the two yet with greater effect? You know trying to make America look like some bad guys as well for political reasons?

      • KAIZER SOSA says:

        This would allow Russia to create some sort of justification on attacking America.

        • jack says:

          actaully, that makes fairly good sense. i think we all know now that “remember, no russian” means not to speak russian. the russian writing as shown 2 posts above also shows the airport is russian. maybe tensions have risen after the failed nuclear missile attempt in cod 4 and the russians need an excuse to try and fire another one.

  34. Ace says:

    It sounds like to me they are saying “Remember, no rushing”
    And I would have to agree that the arrow is just there to complete the scenery.

  35. DiegoXP says:

    I always thought that @ 1:08 they said “Remember… no rushing”

  36. Evingar says:

    This site seems pretty hammered. Probably from me and all the other people from Kotaku. Everyone pretty much already got all the Russian bit correct, but to sum them up:

    Zhe has it with “С нами Бог” or “God is with us” and the other guy saying “Remember, no Russian”

    Dr Lulz had it right with “Пункт проверки безопасности” which is Security check point

    And the debate about the last bit, its clearly “Революция не возможно без революционной ситуации” or “A revolution is not possible without a revolutionary situation”

    • Greg says:

      “Революция не возможно без революционной ситуации”
      can you write it as I could read it please, you know…

      • CMH432 says:

        Революция не возможно без революционной ситуации
        (Ryevlutsiya nye vozmozhno byez ryevolutsionnoy situatsii)

        Though, truth be told, the written Russian doesn’t quite match correct Russian linguistics. Correctly written, it should be:

        Революция не возможность без вращающийся ситуация
        (Ryevlutsiya nye vozmozhnost byez ryevolutsioysya situatsiya)

        Literally translated – Revolution not possible less [meaning without] revolutionary situation.

        • shaytan says:

          “Though, truth be told, the written Russian doesn’t quite match correct Russian linguistics. Correctly written, it should be:

          Революция не возможность без вращающийся ситуация
          (Ryevlutsiya nye vozmozhnost byez ryevolutsioysya situatsiya)”

          You do not speak Russian at all, right?

          Correct phrasing would be:

          Революция невозможна без революционной ситуации.
          (Revolyutziya nevozmozhna bez revolyutzionnoi situatzii):

          “Revolution is not possible without revolutionary situation”

          No need to argue further.

  37. Jubal says:

    The statue is not proportionate with the “angle of the north” as compared to the Christ statue in Rio. The Angle’s arms are about the same in width as the body is in height if not more so where as the Christ statue’s arms are considerably shorter in width compared to the height of it’s body

  38. bAA says:

    due to the perks icon pic we could possibly now be carrying 4 or 5 perks at once
    just a guess

  39. Andcus says:

    I saw a soldier with an american flag on his arm, i will try to get the picture

  40. Devius says:

    I would say the 4th icon actually looks like a parachute , maybe some kind of slow fall? Or that you don’t take as much damage when you jump down from ledges etc..

  41. adrian says:

    the arrow just looks like it’s from inside an airport.

    • KAIZER SOSA says:

      Well I use to work in Orlando International Airport and that arrow in the vid is the same exact arrow you normally see in Airports indictating a direction like to gates, security, restrooms, etc. I firmly believe that arrow is an airport sign and NOT a Perk icon. Its was just a clever way to incorporate the Perks in the vod inconjunction to the scene.

  42. Ortega says:

    The two knives icon could be dual wield weapons or overkill, the shoe with the wing is more than likely extreme conditioning, but could be some sort of speed boost perk too.

    As for the subway sounds, they really do sound like the Tube in London. Would make a little more sense for it to be in London than Rio.

    • John says:

      Since you said that, I still don’t think it looks like two knives. But it does look two rifles. It could be overkill.

    • WolfC4ke says:

      hmm, you can’t catch a plane in the underground…

      it doesn’t mean they can’t base different missions in two separate locations, but the trailer looks to be one continuouse scene in one location, therefore airport

      …and I don’t remember ever seeing a giant christ in anywhere but Rio or Lisbon (however I seriously doubt it’s set in Lisbon) so all the evidence so far points to Rio, Brazil.

      (I’m not really sure how London would make any more sense than anywhere else though!?)

    • WolfC4ke says:

      I also think the ‘icarus’ winged foot is probably a perk for faster sprint.

      The ‘two knives’ could mean ‘no knives’ (knife with a no slash) as you wouldn’t be able to get a knife through the airport metal detectors?

    • warhawk says:

      i do think that it is more likely for the story to be taking place in the UK. there is that jesus statue and the british do a lot of oil drilling off their east coast in the north sea. But WolfC4ke is right. there could very well be missions in seperate locations. thats what it was like in cod4

      • warhawk says:

        and what about the submarines? you gonna tell me that brazil suddenly has a nuclear sub? i’m sticking with the UK

  43. Megazver says:

    It’s “Revolution is not possible without a revolutionary situation.” It’s a Lenin quote.

  44. TT4x says:

    That’s the statue in Rio de Janairo allright.
    Seriously. Rio > Newcastle for a setting.

    • WolfC4ke says:

      lol… my thoughts exactly

      I doubt any game developer with a couple 100k to spend on a game is dying to locate their game in ‘exotic’ Newcastle.

      seriously… it’s in Rio

      • warhawk says:

        but why wouldn’t it be in newcastle. if its in the UK then that means it will probably involve the SAS. i think Great Britan makes a lot of sense

  45. TT4x says:

    Oh and the teddy bear propably stands for a good / touching story. Since teddy bears belong to kids, and kids don’t belong to war.

  46. Very nice finds guys :) Made me re-watch the trailer a good few times

  47. Parky says:

    The “Arrow” Perk isn’t a perk, it’s just a sign in the airport. It’s distorted at the bottom by the guy’s head.

  48. Infamous says:

    The Angel of the North is in Gateshead, not Newcastle!

  49. John says:

    I see a major city landscape. One of the buildings has a sign saying “Sports”. So it could be a city in the United States. There is also a city bus and other buildings in the surrounding that could be part of a major city.

    http://tinyurl.com/dhfcxl

    • ed says:

      This is a very good picture. However it is not in america because the jesus statue is in the top of the picture as well. This picture is there for in Brazil. So the american flag probably alludes to an embassy.

  50. BlazeFenix says:

    http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=246vo0k&s=5

    Also, notice the building, with the American Flag next to it.
    Could this mean combat in America?

  51. woo says:

    Looks at this picture of the Jesus statue in Brazil – note the mountain underneath – seems like it matches to me.

    http://fratres.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/christuppa1202_800×617.jpg

    The teddy bear has been in several Call of Duty’s in the SP missions. I believe it started as a joke and has been kept going. In CoD4 he provided healing – lol. Seems like it was in CoD2 too as well and of course CoD:WW.

    Most of the perk icons all match the perk icons in CoD:WW.

  52. nedim says:

    idon’t think he says “remember no russian” or “remember the russian”.
    it sounds more like “remember, go russian”

  53. dr good ears says:

    “remember, no rushing.”

    why is this what he says? because nothing else makes sense. (easiest solution is most often the answer.. oh yeah and its pretty obvious if you have ears. and i do, i have good ones and a PHD in hearing so yeah its ” remember, no rushing” good advice when you are about to get into a game of modern warfare. no russian, is however not good advice.

  54. Porthos says:

    The words “Subway” lead me to do a bit of research.. Beijing Airport is the biggest in the world making it a target automatically, they have a subway and the level is called L1. Also use English speaking announcers.. Could be Beijing.. Russian assult on the Middle East perhaps? Also one of the image appears to show people diving.. To me the fourth perk looks like a drop in water (too distorted to be a circle shape) and an arrow pointing into the water. Could represent an underwater perk? The second perk looks like it probably does something to make your feet lighter, thus lowering the sound of movement. Perk number 3 is almost definately comprised of melee weapons. The ends are to curved for the barrel of a rifle. Higher damage on the knife maybe? Could be we’re in for a knife-not-killing game?

  55. Porthos says:

    Not middle east.. Asia* Got over excited ;)

  56. professor good eyes says:

    what you call a water mine looks more like a soldier repelling down a rope hanging from that helicopter in the same frame to me

  57. James Walker says:

    Y’all have killed the website. Well done.

    …sons of bitches… ;)

  58. Porthos says:

    Also, to add on to my previous comment, the statue of Christ could be anywhere: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Colossal_statues_of_Jesus.

    There’s even one in the USofA. ;)

  59. Fordy says:

    If you go to the Call of Duty pedia (like wikipedia but just for CoD), and go to the Mile High Club tab (the bonus mission on CoD4) it has lots of theories and superstitions, some could be linked into the trailer.

  60. John says:

    Right in the beginning you can hear church bells.

  61. preak says:

    they say :

    1:04 – “standby”

    and

    1:08 – “don’t rush’em”

    I guess

  62. assassin2266 says:

    The 4th perk could be faster respawn? but i doubt it. Just the fist thing that came to mind when i saw it.

  63. 2468whodoweappreciate says:

    i don’t think that is either of the two statues (cristo/angel of north) but just a ship on the horizon, as seen from the image directly after, which has ships.

  64. T3kNi9e says:

    I think you guys made a few mistakes. In my opinion that is no teddy bear, that is a Sea Lion/Seal which probably has something to do with the Navy Seals which would make sense with the boats and submarine.

    Also you guys seem to keep talking about Russians.

    But I think he said “Remember… No rushing”

  65. Smokin says:

    Also you can clearly see at least two guys wearing Scuba gear. Combine that with the off-shore refinery and submarines and I’m guessing we’re getting at least one underwater infiltration mission.

  66. SFs? says:

    Rio de Janeiro, maybe they are influenced by “Tropa de Elite”. Norway shares boarder with Russia and have got oil rigs, and I’ve heard that the FSK is a pretty good SOF-unit. A terrorist attack on an airport in Japan? Brazilian, British, Norwegian and Japanese special forces? And an all-out-war in America, instead of the Middle-East as in Cod4MW?

  67. SFs? says:

    And some levels in Russia, seeing those old Sovjet tanks and those fences which are very simullar to those in CoD4MW.

  68. T-boNe says:

    HEY! Your not right about the subway part. watch from 30 seconds to about 32 seconds, you here the little voice, say “Flight 275″

  69. majorbailey says:

    The perks are a combination of those from 5 and WAW. looks like stopping power, silent running, not sure on number 3 could br new but four looks like the second chance perk from WAW that lets you revive someone in last stand.

  70. WiredKnight says:

    I don’t think the down arrow means anything, I think it’s is simply to make the viewer assume it’s just a bunch of symbols related to the elevator, to throw them off.

    Could be wrong.

  71. me says:

    does the fourth “perk” symbol have anything to do with airstrike? or maybe the Javelin?

  72. Ricardo Garcia PSN: The-Jackal-1563 says:

    If you notice perk 4th, it clearly states a nuclear blast with the mushrooom efect and the ‘ring” around it…

  73. IcarusAbides says:

    Perk four looks like an ammo drop to me.

  74. IcarusAbides says:

    Also number 2 could be a stab proof vest.

  75. Antonio says:

    It’s definitely in Rio! what you call ‘houses” are clearly shanty town constructions.

  76. Bob says:

    That is obviously what lead up to CoD4’s Mile High Club. 0__o

  77. ns says:

    I´m 100% sure that at least part of it will be on Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). It shows the slums (houses on the hill), Corcovado mountain, Cristo Redentor (Christ statue, even with it´s accurate real base where tourists can go), oil rigs at the sea… Rio also has subways, but that could be anywhere :P

  78. GrantE says:

    I don’t think the symbols are perk symbols at all! They are signs in the airport (which are full of symbols) directing you down to different services. (Thus, the down arrow!) I think this whole airport scene is depiction of an incident of terrorism that sparks the Modern Warfare to begin and the symbols are NOT a part of a HUD during gameplay!

    • IcarusAbides says:

      Its a teaser trailer, the perks wont actually be displayed like that in the game, neither will the giant teddy bear (i hope).

  79. GrantE says:

    I always felt that the Mile High level on COD4 (what a tough achievement!) was a preview for the next direction Infinity Ward would go. I could see more SWAT-like gameplay in the story missions. If so, WATCH OUT Rainbow Six!

  80. Pengalor says:

    It is definitely going to be partly in Rio De Janeiro. If you look at this picture (http://modernwarfare2.infinityward.com/#/?zoom=3&x=-1535&y=-376&time=80.18566666666666)

    You can clearly see the curves in the arms of the O Cristo Redentor and the shape of the statue. Here is a real-life picture for comparison at a similar distance: http://www.puc-rio.br/servicos/conheca/imagens/img_srv_cristo.jpg

  81. Simon Phoenix says:

    Here in Brazil, rumor has it that BOPE, an elite urban force it’s gonna be in the game…for you that doens’t know BOPE, aka men in black, watch the movie “Elite Squad”, here’s the trailer…

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w79f50fkcSw

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-QN3HlA5i0

  82. mvg89 says:

    I think the 3rd picture with the two objects crossed could be guns and that could mean you could have duel weapons..thatll be cool

  83. jsix says:

    i liked to point out there is a man in scuba gear swimming about in one flash of this movie, I’d be down for some under water stuff.

  84. jsix says:

    sorry i guess i should say its at 1:24-1:25 and he is just to the right of center.

  85. Joe says:

    Wow, great stuff. Thanks for the details. I saw the trailer before, but had no idea about the “analyze” feature from IW.

  86. Corey Levy says:

    The boot with a feather must be a perk like in cod5 where you make less sound when you move or either a new running faster perk.

    The knifes perk must be faster knifing or farther reaching like bayonets in cod5.

    The “portal looking” perk looks more like a type of bomb to me, so I have no clue what it could be.

    And for the arrow it looks more like a rank then a perk to me.

    • IcarusAbides says:

      I think the arrow maybe part of the actual scenery seems as it is bigger than the rest of the perk icons. You might be right with the shoe thing or it could be faster sprinting which could get annoying.

  87. Ryan says:

    sorry for not puttin that reply in the wrong spot lol

  88. jack says:

    there is a picture of a scuba diver at 84.389 seconds on the right hand a little more towards the top if you just see a guy zoom i and you can see the flippers

  89. ET says:

    At 1:04 he says Sname Bog which means “God is with us!”

    At the end it says Revolutzeya ne vozmozhno…bez revolutzeya situatzeya which means The Revolution Cannot Happen…Without Revolunist Situations!

  90. Prog556 says:

    I’ve already played the (beta), you will live not, nothing close to COD:MW. I help developed the weapons designs

  91. bobby s says:

    awesome job with the breakdown, very good. i cant wait for this game

  92. psn Me_and_McLovin says:

    i think the arrow is just one of those arrows in an airport because it is pointing toward the security sign. i think its saying the stopping power winged boot, knives and portal thing are in the security.
    if this is already said then wtv i didnt have time to read everything

  93. Loki says:

    Its definantly a japanese subway or airport, because I heard japanese in the beginning. The russians have some bad history with the japanese as well. Something else I noticed, the last perk , the portal looking one, it looks like the Icon for an air strike, but then again, it looks more like martyrdom

  94. psn Me_and_McLovin says:

    also in the picture with the two ships on the left side in the middle looks like a broken monorail train or something
    could be a clue to where action takes place

  95. psn Me_and_McLovin says:

    ok and my last addition is that i think the dual knives perk is actually a gun and a knife – maybe a bayonette attachment????

  96. Draz says:

    I’m thinking maybe what people think is an ammo drop or whatever. The one second from the left. It might be marty.

  97. Draz says:

    Woops, second from the right!

  98. TVWoLfMaN says:

    Christ the Redeemer

    If you’re going to link to an image, post the image URL — when you post the Google Search URL it is freaking gargantuan. – JW

  99. GB says:

    All of the stills look as if they refer to maps already released in COD4. I mean if you think about the maps from cod4 while you scroll down this page they all resemble maps areas from bog(O cristo), wetworks (ships), the farm house while you could call in airstrikes,and mile high club.

  100. wrgsvs11 says:

    just a note on the teddy bears, in some of the stages in modern warfare and almost all of the multiplayer maps their is a teddybear somewhere(i know theirs on in a tv in chinatown)

  101. Pluti says:

    “The fith icon has lots of theories. It might not be a perk at all, it might be a new way to select perks, it might have something to do with elevator usage in the game. We all can agree it is slightly larger than the other boxes and is confusing everybody.”
    The fifth icon looks lika one of those directional signs you can see in an airport, I don’t think it’s a new perk, it’s just a way to “hide” the perk icons in plain view.

  102. FUCK YOU says:

    I LOVE YOU ALL POSTERS huahauahuahauhauahua…… I LOVE COD6!

  103. justme says:

    maybe he said “remember, they’re Russian”? Just guess

  104. Your a gimp says:

    GIMP!

  105. Moto_Panda says:

    OK the 2nd Perk very well may be UAV Jammer…Hear me out.

    Winged God was Hermes

    The “Hermes 450″ is a UAV mentioned in this link below. I didnt dig deeper.

    http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/israel/hermes-450.htm

    • IcarusAbides says:

      I dont think Infinity Ward have put that much thought into cryptic perks, i dont think any has ever put that much thought into it besides you.

  106. GuyWithNoEyes says:

    I just watched the trailer right now and I swear I heard, “Remember….We’re Russian”

    :S

  107. Ward117 says:

    the foot with wings on it could be just extreme conditioning OR i could mean something like jump higher, run “faster”(as opposed to run “longer” with extreme conditioning)

    and the two “knives” could be two pistols,(maybe a bit of double desert eagle fun:)

    just a few thoughts i had…

  108. vic says:

    Sad. i like the game but not that much..i still have a life

  109. steven says:

    maby the wierd jesus looking thing is a guy in a jet pack like on the news , probably not though

  110. Hugo says:

    I think that the water mine/floating body you saw next to the teddy bear is actually another scuba diver

  111. omeeh says:

    1:20:28 there is some train and @ 1.25:19 there is some fence or something

  112. mooph.fru says:

    The writing on the picture in 0:34 says in russian “ПУНКТ ПРОВЕРКИ БЕЗОПАСНОСТИ” which means “security cheсk point”.

  113. Blimmer2007 says:

    Is it me or is the “statue” everyone is talking about looking far more like a cruise missile or possibly an unmanned spy plane??? Just a thought!!!!

  114. ge0se says:

    BTW, the text on the first image is russian and says “Пункт проверки безопасности” which translates to “Security check station”.

  115. SXcalibur says:

    I believe that the arrow that has been called a fifth perk is really just an arrow directing passengers to an (airplane?/boat?),which could mean that the first level of the campaign is the Prologue from CoD4(where you take down Russians in an airplane and save a hostage).If this is true,then that means that the game will most likely feature the old crew (Price,Soap,etc).

  116. just to confirm the people in the elevator say remember your russian. maybe descising themselves as russians so the attack is unexpected, also i was doing some research on my xbox and found that the picture in the montage where its inside of an aeroplane looks exactly the same as the one in MILE HIGH CLUB COD 4!! also there is a tiny aeroplane in the montage being blown up just like the one in cod4 epilouge, im guessing MW2 is linked to mile high club and how that mile high club mission started.

  117. tdude51 says:

    The teddy bear reminds me of an easter egg in Call of Duty: Finest Hour. You find a secret room in one of the Germany levels that is haunted, with a ghost, a giant rat, floating candles, a crib, baby pictures everywhere…it’s quite creepy, and I’m not making this up. However, there are two strange items inside that you can pick up…teddy bears. They add 99 teddy bear grenades to your inventory, and when you pick them up they say “Kaiserbear/stickybear is explosive”. Perhaps there is some sort of explosive threat in the teddy bear? I know it’s a stretch, but you never know…

    Here is a video of it, just so nobody thinks I’m crazy.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1i0jusXY58

  118. Brandon says:

    Could them exiting the elevator and saying, “remember, no russian,” refer to them being terrorists and being reminded to not speak russian so no one knows who they are?

  119. Brandon says:

    O and could the teddy bear be a sign of more ZOMBIES?! Thats the same bear that pops up out of the mystery box and screws you over in the Nazi Zombies mode.

  120. matt says:

    It looks like navy seals will be playing a role since there’s a scuba diver. Maybe it will be seals and sbs?

  121. Big Juice says:

    Mabe the down arrow could be the new martydom?

  122. Big Juice says:

    THere is also some text on the top left corner on the same shot as the icons it doesnt look like english to me

  123. joe says:

    I heard a rumour of Taliban Zombies =/, not from a reliable source (I.E. my friend at school) but that would be crap, zombies was a one off thing.

  124. ARJY says:

    Guys the bear is an easter egg by infinity ward its just a bit of a laugh but its crazy, all the stuff in that teaser i never saw.

  125. Corey says:

    I find this very interesting.

    http://modernwarfare2.infinityward.com/#/?zoom=2&x=-8.5&y=-294.95&time=34.182539682539684

    i cant figure out what it says but I think it might be something.

    Also for the people wondering what time it says on the mans watch, it’s 8:15 http://modernwarfare2.infinityward.com/#/?zoom=2&x=-58.5&y=-282.95&time=50.80555555555556

  126. Terry says:

    maby perk 4 is more explosive damage

  127. Luda007 says:

    -Around second 21 it sounds as if a women says “Welcome to france” IDK maybe just me.

    - At the end of the teaser you see “M 1 2 3″ the 2 is circled and then it ends with Modern Warfare2. I’m thinking the 3 means there will be a 3rd installment of Modern Warfare.

  128. Luda007 says:

    Additionally to the poster above me, I believe his watch reads 5:07 roughly.

  129. Alotria says:

    For me the perk 4 looks like a flag in a circle. it could be a spawn point drop or something like that.

  130. BETEPAH says:

    http://i42.tinypic.com/30awe3a.jpg
    It says “Пункт проверки безопасности” “Security check”

  131. Zack says:

    The teddy bear appeared in all CoD games by Infinity Ward. In fact, I remember shooting a teddy bear on the shooting range right at the beginning of CoD2, and I saw them everywhere for the rest of the game.

  132. Holy Mango says:

    THe 4th perk looks like the portal symbol minus the guy falling into the arrow
    http://i.testfreaks.com/images/products/600×400/10/portal.479242.jpg

    i somehow doubt portal guns will be making an apperance

  133. SaSsyWAHiNE 808 says:

    Awesome job dude….fourzerotwo sent me from twitter. ;P

  134. klaus_omgwtf says:

    the most extensive analysis of this so far. btw probably not slimy ball…:

    (quote from http://twitter.com/fourzerotwo)
    http://zz.gd/19047d – Probably my favorite teaser analysis so far. “1:04 – Guy on the left says “slimy ball” !? – lol

  135. ShackontheTarget says:

    I think the 5th “perk” isnt one at all. Imo, its an arrow showing where to go through the security gate or so.

  136. valeriob says:

    So awesome. See you on 11.10.09

  137. Cameron says:

    The two crossed objects looks like and rpg to me. I also heard they may add a stinger missle launcher to multiplayer so it could be rpg and stinger crossed or x2 rpg’s

  138. Chad says:

    The teddy bear is also in WaW zombie mode. When it pops up the ammo crate moves to a new location.

  139. Telvanni says:

    The fourth perk? Looks more like Martyrdom to me. The only problem is with the circle. Might be indicating the blast radius but no clue.

  140. jackson feeble says:

    actually he sais, “remember… no russian.” and the fact that he said it in english when everything else was in russian means that they meant dont speak russian

  141. Bainsterdeluxe says:

    Looking pretty closely at the trailer, the Jesus statue is more likely than the Angel as much as I hate to say it. Geordie COD would be intense. The water theme looks like a pretty solid assumption. BUT I am hoping to the gaming gods and the developers that the inside of the aeroplane (1:21.54) is the same plane that you finish COD4 with. So it is a literal continuation from 4. Because we all know that suddenly being in a jumbo jet trying to save a VIP had NOTHING to do with the story from 4. Any thoughts?

  142. chinkachu says:

    So teddy bears, were found all of over call of duty 4, so I guess it might be a sign we’re going back to russia, and one guys says something like, “A number for a russia”, or atleast some for russia, yeah well that’s all i caught :D

  143. Ariksu says:

    Words at 0:34 are in russian. It is most likely “Пункт проверки безопасности” (Punkt proverki bezopasnosti, “Security check post”).

  144. theMEGLET says:

    Many have said that they can see an ‘Oil Derrick’ in the picture with the Submarine .

    This is not an oil derrick but the tail of the helicopter pictured to the right which is a AH-6J ‘Little Bird’ used the 160th SOAR ‘Nightstalkers’, the US Army’s Special Operations helicopter unit, the AH-6J ‘Little Bird’ is a light attack helicopter designed to support Special Operations !

    • Bainsterdeluxe says:

      The oil rig, is in there buddy, (1:26:45) its not the tail fin of the chopper you’re on about.

  145. theMEGLET says:

    Sure, the oil rig’s in there, it’s pictured above.

    But many have mistaken the ‘copter tail for an oil derrick, so I just thought I’d mention it.

    I think we can gather from the analyse so far that MW2, is going to have a big offshore slant !

    Does anyone think that Hugo Chavez is going to make a guest appearance in MW2 !!

  147. theMEGLET says:

    I’ve had a pretty good look at the ‘body floating in the water’ picture, and it looks to me like a guy in a JIM suit.

    One of those deep sea diving suits like what they had in one of those James Bond movies .

  148. theMEGLET says:

    Having had a good look at IW teaser with it’s fancy zoom in gizmo, here’s some stuff I’ve noticed .

    1.19.45 (Centre frame) Large Château with tall chimney’s .

    1.20.07 (centre right) A Metro Rio subway train,

    1.22.18 (Middle frame) ‘Little Bird’ heli’ / Submarine turret .
    (Left frame) Submarine hull (cross section) under construction .
    (Right of frame) silhouette of a marine with night vision goggles on his helmet / a soldiers arm with a US flag patch .

    1.21.24 (left frame) helicopter
    (Middle frame) Large snowbound cabin with Snow Cat approaching.
    (Right Frame) Old Fort with modern struction and crates on top, building has writing on the side, but can’t make it out .

    1.23.82 (Centre) An AAV crossing a river .

    1.25.46 (left of frame) A busy airport lots of airliners, just to add Rio de Janeiro Airport is used for Military purposes as well as Commercial .

    the teddy bear has something to do with a special war day because it was in cod2, MW and it looks like mw2

    • theMEGLET says:

      I just think IW put a Teddy Bear in the game just so we have something to aim at for target practice .

      No, seriously, I think it’s just a symbolic gesture of the loss of innocence in war, it’s always the children who suffer the most .

      I think the image on the left looks like a guy in a JIM suit, like a deep sea submersible body shaped vehicle .

      The image on the right looks to me like a severed torso of a marine, seen upside down with his innards showing .

      Also, in the image on the right, is a ships stern with a flag flying, it appears to have Arabic writing on it, but it could just be the reflection of the ripples in the material .

    Also, we presume that L1 M 1 2 3 is the different floors as the elevator moves, but what does L1 & M stand for .

  153. Danjer047 says:

    I think that the story line will go with the new Communism that is currently coming into prominence again. South America has many heavily communist countries that could be league with the Russians that are in this story. Maybe some of this game will take place in America. Maybe the Russians (or communists, however you want to say it) are attacking the U.S. while it is weak and you have to be a Navy Seal or Marine but also soldiers from our ally countries.

    I’m just putting everything together from what I’ve been hearing because what is most important to me is the story. I think that this will be less of a globetrotting adventure and more focused in the Western Hemisphere with some ties to Russia (possibly China, another communist power) coming into play as well.

    I am really excited about this game!

  154. Alex L says:

    I feel as though we will see a few different Special operational forces in MW2. I noticed some of the helicopters looked like the “Little Birds” the U.S. army 160th Nightstalkers use. So I can only assume Army SF such as Delta etc will be in the game.

    Also, SEAL’s could be in this game as well, or maybe British SBS due to the submarine/oil rig/boats/high ammount of water.

    Just a thought.

  155. liam le says:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FGsvOzB1Hki think this is some how linked to the game but i’m not sure. anyways getting to back to predictions another part might be hosted in France because behind the oil rig i can see something sorta like the Eiffel tower.And going back to the other speculations there may be different acts where you travel to different countries so it might also bee in Rio (I heard a woman speak Japanese at the beginning and a man with Australian accent they might be clues to other countries).

    more proof that this is at an airport?

  158. Bob says:

    Can i just say that at the very end of COD 4 the news reporter said at the end

    short words: agruements break out over who will take over the ultra nationlist

    another words their pissed over what happened to the last dude.
    That might tie in to the storyline no?

  159. CRYPTSTYLE says:

    Is perk 4 perhaps not just an old skool weapon pick-up point? Seeing as everyone’s agreed the 5th’s larger and “possibly” not a perk, it makes sense that not all 5 are simply perks, but could include a coupla hints to game modes?

    1’s old, 2’s new, 3’s modified?, 4’s old, 5’s . . . .

    Anyways, water theme makes sense, when some of the water in WAW was pretty impressive (like Makin) but just didn’t have enough satisfying interaction, so actually makes sense that IW are gonna want to blow that away. We’ve had vehicle perks before, and i personally like the idea of underwater perks..like staying crouching submerged in chest height water for longer, before poppin up and blowin em away! But…

  160. Jack says:

    I just though of something maybe the 4 perk icons and the larger icon are a melding of COD3 and COD4.

    Maybe there are classes that each start with 4 non-changeable perks; as you elevate in rank then you get to add perks (that would be the 5th icon). That would create a better game.

    So the icons on the trailer may relate to the start point of a sniper class with deep penetration, extreme conditioning, airstrike and iron lung.

    “I may just be the last thing you see before you re-spawn!”

  161. Mark says:

    Here are my thoughts on the icons:

    1. Stopping Power, no doubt at all
    2. A rebrand icon of extreme conditioning or a perk which lets you jump higher (think about the greek god hermes)
    3. Two knives are shown, so it could be that you can carry two knives so you miss less or knife at a faster rate. Or it could allow you to block another player’s knife attack.
    4. Imagine looking at it from a birds eye view and it could be a crosshair, so it could mean more accurate sniper. Or maybe grenade/C4/claymore pickup ability.

    I belive the 5th icon is just a direction in the “airport/subway”, if not then since it is bigger it could be a new type of game mode such as Search and Destroy but you have to kill a specific enemy on the team before your enemy does the same thing.

    On a further note, here is what i think would make a good game:

    1. Have larger maps, shipment was far too small, since on the PC version you could have a Team Deathmatch with a total of 54 players (my max, they could have more :0). maybe a specialised sniper match with a long field with cover and buildings each end.
    2. Have a no perk game mode, like hardcore and oldschool but eith no perks for the people who complain when they die from martydom or a ‘juggernoob’.
    3. I have heard a lot of suggestions about a perk that allows multiple attachments for example a red dot sight and silencer. DO NOT HAVE THIS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. Make it a challenge for that weapon. For example MP5 marksman 4 could unlock this.
    4. Have maps where you need nightvision, in CoD4MW people who used nightvision just looked like idiots.
    5. Have so you can chose which golden weapon you have, a golden MP5 would be ftw.
    6. This may be going too far (it probably is) but like Nazi Zombies in CoDWAW, have a similar mode called Al-Qaeda Zombies? :) (NB at a certain level the zombies have C4 strapped to them.
    7. The dogs were cool on in CoDWAW but were sometimes too much to handle, but the helicopter didn’y pose much threat to players hence that hardly any people i play with shoot it unless i tell them. make it so your 7 kill streak reward isn’t too powerfull but needs to be killed so players have to shoot it. (A difficult question i know)
    8. Finally my serious question is to improve martyrdom, so it doesn’t drop a nade, but your corpse explodes if your killer teabags you :p.

  162. thejosheffect says:

    Im guessing because of the water theme and a select few images that we will be with a Naval Special Warfare group.

    The scuba diver is definitely carrying a rid, the “submarine” could very well be a submarine for insertions, but it can also be a SDV.

    just my 2 cents.

    хм… teddy bear…. Probably in it the bomb lays?? Or something strategically important (vital)??
    p.s.I consider that above is drawn 4 perks instead of 5. The Fifth-sign at the airport is no more

  165. 1#Joey says:

    4 perk it is similar to landing in enemy territory, that is as introduction in enemy positions (it is possible under covering). Or suppression of the given territory by specialized means (airstrike, a reinforcement and other)

  166. theMEGLET says:

    Hey Guy’s !

    I’ve worked out what the fourth perk is…… It makes pretty obvious sense really .

    It’s an UNDERWATER perk !!!!!

    If you look at the fourth icon it’s a shimmering arrow pointing downwards to a circular ripple of water !!

    My initial guess is for ‘holding your breath underwater’ perk !!!

    Remember theMEGLET from Clan DUNG (Death, Ur New God) told you first !!

  167. Mark says:

    i done my own analysis and i found at 0:29.27 there is a faint flash of a circle thing i zoomed in and found it had a cirle around it saying L3 or something. my therory is that they could possibly be bringing back zombies?

  168. Deadeye says:

    The 4th Perk is obviously Jihad,It’s the new martydom. Ya Know.. And at 1:23:63 on the left hand side you can clearly make out the face of optimus prime

  169. Alex says:

    i did some research off of the guys theory of the Beijing Airport, and guess what? that airport has a subway line named L1. coincidence? probably not. china is near russia. also, i turned my volume ALL THE WAY UP when they say, “remember, no —”, and trust me, he says “No Russian.” this would lead to the theory of them staging the americans, because he says “no russian” in perfect english as well. and for the third theory: being related to the cod4 epilogue. i totally believe it. if you watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbYXV0UivpM and stop at 0:47, youll see the sign says something in a foreign language, then underneath in english. (also, in the video the hostage and the terrorist were speaking a different language, but that could just be because hes playing the game in a different country)

    • Alex says:

      i forgot to add that after the last real mission, the news reporter states the the russians were having problems with who will lead them and what not. add one more clue to the huge list of russian hints

    • theMEGLET says:

      Just to add that Rio de Janeiro also as a Subway called L1 (Linha 1)

      Also, there is a definite connection with Rio with the universally agreed image of the ‘Christ the Redeemer’ statue appearing in the teaser .

      And, as I have stated in a previous post, there is an image of exactly the type of train they use on the MetroRio, at 1.20.07s in the teaser.

      The only doubts I have are that I don’t think the MetroRio has a station at the Airport, and MetroRio trains have a distinctive logo on the front of their trains, but this could have been removed by IW for the teaser because it would be to much of a give away !

    • corey says:

      at 47 second on that video is says “for crew use only” which is pretty pointless, probably just a crew bathroom on the plane.

  170. Hans says:

    The text above the person in 0:34 its Russian : NYHKT (something) BE3ONACHOCTH
    It says: Point (something) Security. – i guess, that the text is not as interesting, as i thought.

  171. Unseen says:

    I think the words are a decipher, cant tell what it says yet though…

  172. John says:

    Since everything in the trailer is deliberate, I find the teddy bear puzzling. I know that it could just be hinting at a more social emphasis in the story line (i.e. getting the gamer to feel the effects of war), but I thought that I might mention that my initial reaction was: Chernobyl. Many pictures (I have added a link to one below) from Chernobyl depict deranged, abandoned toys, especially dolls and teddy bears. Is there a connection to CoD4:MW?

    On closer inspection of the water mine, moomin, the man who has possibly looked at this video more than myself, comes through saying that it looks like a body floating, and attatched the below picture (also noting the landing pad and/or Monopoly board in the background….which I will personally add I think might be a trampoline!)

    The ‘floating body’ is actually a scuba diver. The same one that is mentioned at the end, infact.

  174. SavageUSMC says:

    The winged feet indicate faster movement speed. Extreme conditioning increased running time, not speed.

    The crossed items are Ka-bars. Marine Corps fighting knives. I agree that it probably halves melee recovery time like several people guessed already. I’ll be using that perk.

    The assassin wears a big ass watch showing apprx 8:20

    The assassin cocks what appears to be a submachine gun with a short throw and has the bolt handle on the left side. Probably an MP5K.

    The 4th perk is a great thing for me to poop on and not worry too much about.

  175. Ars3nic3 says:

    The teddy bear looks like the same teddy bear from the mystery box from the new zombie map on WAW. Possibly saying a zombie type mode for MW2.

  176. RoG Venom RV says:

    He says before the door opens is ” Remember, don’t rush “

  177. Thome says:

    One look at the teddy bear puts all my worries to rest. I find myself very excited and anxious now simply because of the fact that in Call Of Duty: World At War, There’s the side game “Nazi Zombies”, and with the new map pack just released, there is a new Nazi Zombies map. In this map, there’s a mystery box of weapons that you can take a chance buying from, now for the very unlucky individual who opens the box, and the box moves to another location in the map, there’s a little girl laughing, and instead of seeing a gun, you see a TEDDY BEAR!!! Now my thesis (or just plain hopes and dreams) is that maybe Infinity Ward is carrying on Treyarch’s O So Amazing alternative to COD’s Campaign, and multiplayer. Obviously it wouldn’t be Nazi’s but if you think about it, when all is said and done, and you fight off your enemy with thousands of dead bodies around you, what would be more fun then to have to fight them again?! Just a guess.

  178. Andrew says:

    I’m pretty sure that the Russian says:

    “remember…..you’re Russian”
    Not anything listed above.

    I also believe the “5th perk” is just an arrow pointing down sign in the terminal.

  179. Cameron says:

    maybe this isnt like a main mission, what if there releasing another co-op mode, similar to rainbow 6 terrorist hunt where you just go around picking off all the terrorists

  180. SPPLMJ says:

    has anyoe considered that the begining of the trailer (with the russians in the elevator) is actually the prelude to “Mile High Club” explaining how the terrorist got on the plane in the first place?

    • yea i think that makes a lot of sense. and as a lot of people mentioned it was in an airport and stuff. maybe if someone replayed the level they would see signs of it being a Japanese plane (which would fit in PERFECTLY) because people claim that the airport is japanese :D :D :D

  181. James says:

    Has anyone picked up on the massive hints of oil conflict. Also, considering its set in Siberia and Brazil (oil hotspots) that the war could be to do with the last substantial energy resources in the world. However, it could be to do with another communist revolution that possibly spreads to Brazil from Russia?

  182. dannyaudo says:

    i just had a thought, the 4 perk icons could mean that instead of 3 perk slots, there’ll be 4?

  183. mick says:

    the middle perk is a bullet and a knife the bullet is the one on the bottom left to top right and i believe that the jesus is the Cristo in Rio because it is more known in America but i am so exited about this and i wish it to be better then COD 4

  184. jtm524 says:

    the helos are Kiowah Little Birds; Used almost exclusively for the ingress/egress of Delta Special Operations teams, points towards a terrorist/counter terrorist theme. Which, I guess, lends credence to a more “Global” theater.

  185. Gimppy says:

    The image moonmim posted that you think is a possible snow map its not its a very famous image well a depiction of the still from a video of a nuclear bomb test the video clip has been in many metal music videos and everything. Anyway it is a nuclear blast that is for sure I have seen the video. I believe it was done in the 60s at Los Alamos.

  186. THENEWz3r0 says:

    I thinkthat the wingsdbfeetvperk is like dead silence wherebit doesn’t make any noise when you walk or run

  187. Jordan says:

    i think that the second perk in the picture with the boot with wings will make you run faster. The that looks like two guns crossed might be two attachment on your gun, i think that because having two attachments would be like having two guns.

  188. RoBc says:

    пункт проверкн безолаcноетн = In Bulgarian, “Check point ’something’”

    I don’t know what the last bit means ????

  189. Ben12390 says:

    i think the third perk could be one that lets you resist falling damage, like when you jump out of a building. and could go in the second perk class..
    just an idea

  190. THENEWz3r0 says:

    My friend and I both think that all the water is whaen you jump out of the plane in cod4 as the last mission you land on a bad place in the water and have to fight your at out. Justa thought though!!!!

  191. THENEWz3r0 says:

    Have younever noticed that at 1:05 you can see a hand and it looks likenit is yours maybe you are behind them in the elavator and are going tourderbthose Russian bitches it’s just another thought though

  192. Cody says:

    I think the letters on the elevator are in russian and it is Пункт проверки безопасности which means security check point. i know this because when i lived in russia and solvakia for three years every guarded entrance point was called “КПП” Control Pass Post in the check, which is Пункт in russian. So i think it is in a U.S or Allied US airport since it is in English and in Every international air port the announcements have the main language of the country and English. So this could be a terrorist attack on the US or another country and I personally think that it is in the US and that it is over oil this would explain the Oil refinery in one picture and the Divers in another picture.

    • warhawk says:

      i think that it is more likely to be in the UK. think about it. the UK does a lot of oil drilling off their east coast. that is also in the area of that jesus statue that everyone is talking about. perhaps an attack on britan? idk. you could be right cody, i’m just speculating.

  193. TrueTactiks says:

    The area you called a trampoline looks like a landing zone for helicopters. Sorry to spoil your fun. Can’t wait and Great Analysis.

  194. massai93 says:

    Great analysis on the MW2 trailer. Just 2 things one i believe the jesus statue is that of either christ the redeemer statues in brazil or bosnia (think behind enemy lines 1 w/ owen wilson). 2nd i think the winged foot is a faster running perk.

  195. noahtv says:

    i think that the elevator is where you can change your perks (maybe in single player) during the gameplay

  196. warhawk says:

    it would make sense that he says no russian, as in no speaking in russian. if they spoke in russian and left survivors then people may know who to retalliate against. but that’s just what i think. this game is gonna be sweet.

  197. warhawk says:

    oh, one more thing. where are some of the teddy bears. if you just tell me where one is i’ll believe that they are in all of the other maps.where is the one in shipment?

    wait!!! the last level after the credits of mw1 your on the plane and in the trailer there in a airport maybe that last level in mw1 has to do with mw2. o and i wonder if the game starts at the point when mw1 ended

  200. Sam_Hevrin says:

    I’ve got a theory that we’ll be able to select perks and weapon loadouts before each mission, or just certain missions, in the single player campaign. Remember, probably one of the few faults in COD4:MW was that the single player campaign was rather short. Maybe in an attempt to better the single player experience, they are giving us more choices in the single player campaign regarding weapons and perks or possibly even different choices within the mission itself, impacting how the single player campaign is played.

    Hey just to let you know the teddy bear could be some sort of zombie mode like in waw because my friend says in the new maps there is a random teddy bear that changes the spawn point of the random weapons box.

  205. Shadows 0f Pain says:

    Look after they say “Remember, no Russian”.
    There are two signs, that clearly say “Security” in ENGLISH.
    Possibly this does take place in an English speaking country.
    If not, why would there be signs that say “Security” on them?

    Email me at wreptile@live.com to respond.

    Thanks.

  206. Raynan says:

    to shadows of pain: english is a language spoken in a lot of different countries, it is entirely possible that the men may be in a russian airport or any other country for that matter.

    secondly the 5th ‘perk’ icon looks more like an arrow at the airport/subway giving directions to the exit or something. As many of you have said, it is clearly larger than the other perk icons, so it probably isn’t a perk itself.

    thirdly there’s supposedly a ‘monkey’ perk that lets you climb trees, useful for snipers maybe? =]

    feel free to email me rayman641@hotmail.com

    CoD rules!!!!

  207. Noah says:

    I know that someone probably already pointed this out, but the place where the people walk out in the beginning with the security signs is definitely an airport

  208. Brenden says:

    Maybe the fifth symbol is the second chance perk.

  209. ROSCO1983 says:

    well i agree with a few people about the perks like the first 1 is ofcourse stopping power the second 1 is what i believe to be extreme conditioning and i agree the third could be overkill the fourth could be some kinda nuke rather than airstrike or helicopter and the fifth could be for second chance i also believe the teddy bear simbalizes that they might add the weapon box like in world at war

  210. Liam Carson says:

    Hi,

    I’m thinking most of what you’ve said is indeed correct – good job!

    from what I’ve gathered so far it sounds like we will play as the bad guy in the subway well leave a bomb in the elevator the Russians are about to get some info and the montage is the outcome of what we do just a thought haven’t done much research

  212. Joe says:

    By the sounds of it, the voice on the announcer at the beginning is an english accent. must be an english airport?

  213. Joe says:

    I’m not sure about the 5th perk (the arrow)
    sure it looks like the terminal sign, and it is bigger, but what difference does that make? maybe it’s gonna be a big perk, like a new last stand or something…

  214. Dan says:

    The first perk is Stopping Power, second is Extreme Conditioning, third is a melee perk, fourth is a spawn perk, and fifth isn’t a perk it’s just part of the elevator I think..

  215. Cody says:

    I was thinking:

    1. Stopping power
    2. Extreme Conditioning/lighter steps/faster speed(any of those)
    3. Maybe the perk that allows for more than one piece of equipment on your gun? (ie: Sight and silencer)
    4. Something maybe to do with spawning?

    The 5th is definitely not a perk. Just a sign.

  216. The teddy bear answer says:

    well they do have veterans help them out with their games. Me speaking as a vet myself. the most haunting thing thing to see on a battle field especially during a invasion is a teddy bear…. plain and simple, it does belong to a kid or it “DID” belong to a kid. past tense. think about it. that will always stand out no matter what.

  217. Brian says:

    5th ‘perk’ is obviously a “skate.” Skate Spot.

  218. css says:

    It seemes that not many people here know Russian (and i do ;) ) so i think a little summary can be useful:

    In the very beginning a man is sort of praying, then he says “С нами Бог” (“S nami Bog”) – “God is with us”, then the other one says “Remember, no Russian” (imho) in order to remind him not to speak russian when they will leave the elevator(again, thats my opinion).

    The glowing Russian note on the wall is “Пункт проверки безопасности” (“Punkt proverki bezopasnosti”) – “Security check point”, as someone already mentioned. Its obvious btw – there re english notes “Security” there.

    The sentence they say in the end is “Революция невозможна без революционной ситуации” (“Revolucija nevozmojna bez revolucionnoj situacii”) “Revolution isn’t possible without a revolutionary situation” – as far as I understand thats one of Lenin’s quotes, but thats IMHO.

    Well, thats all) thx 4 attention)

  219. DannyG259 says:

    Dont Know If Someones Already Said This…But Me And My Friends All Think The Third Perk Icon Is Crossed Knifes Which Could Be Knife Fights So If Two People Knife At The Same Time It Leads To A Quick Time Event Or A Button Mash Or Something Along Those Lines.

    There is a seen where it has a guy with a watch. It seems the time reads 5:10. the time in the video is 0:50:61. But what if the time is 5:11. and they are in a russian airport. Time difference in russia? 8 hours! So East U.S would be 8 hours back do the math… 9:11. The date of the TERRORIST attacks in New York. Which started in an AIRPORT. More than coincadene.

  221. nick says:

    I think instead of saying “remember, no russian” they’re actually sayin “remember, THE russian” which has ties to campaigne in cod 4. Nikoli “the good russian” per chance,

  222. stilltippin718 says:

    well apparently i was the absolute first to notice this….

    On the still image where the choppers are first pointed out in the middle of the screen, there is a large windowpane to the upper right and a portion of a side of a house underneath. If you slow down the video to where the bullets start coming across from the right, you can see a divers body with legs in the air. If you zoom in, the diver is grabbing hold to a large cylindrical object (first thought nuclear warhead)….

    also, i wouldnt argee that thats the inside of a plane, but i get a feeling the small rectangle at the top spells out SPAIN but its blurry on the zoom.

  223. Shnil says:

    I believe that the 4th perk looks like a capture-point. Might be a perk that let’s you capture points faster in domination or something. Or let’s you plant/defuse bombs faster or something like that. :)

  224. GodsxSoldier says:

    i think the winged feat icon may be a light stepping perk, like to be able to walk passed a claymore or something

  225. shreem says:

    i bet the whole thing is in russia for a couple reasons.
    1. first off im going to say it is the sequel to modern warfare(call of duty 4)
    2. I remeber in the beggining of CoD4 it says “we have civil war in russia” and something about the middle east. in call of duty 4 there really wasnt that much done in russia. most of it had to do with al asad. because of this, i think modern warfare 2 campaign will be dealing with the civil war in russia. many people do think it said in the trailer that you cant start a revolution without a revolutionary situation. and from call of duty 4 we know that there already is a revolution going on.

    • Andrew says:

      What would the British SAS be doing trying to stop a civil war in Russia? They would just get “busted” for invading Russian’s sovereignty and the world would be pissed off at them.

  226. Sasquatch1916 says:

    I think that statue thing might just be the “Angel of the North” thing in England. mainly because of the castle picture. I think the SAS will get attacked on it’s home turf(as in the novel Rainbow Six by Tom Clancy) probably by some ultra-nationalist remnants from CoD4 or maybe even the P.I.R.A. like in Rainbow Six. (my running theory is that infinty ward got lazy and read that book too) I don’t think the last big perk box is a perk, it’s probably just an airport sign. as for American troops in the game the little bird helos from the pic make me think Army rangers instead of marines(if you get to pick your division for MP that would be sweet.10th mountain all the way). So, to recap, castles and statue(and english speaking airport people) make me think part of the story will take place in the UK. the oil rigs and scuba guys make me think southern atlantic/gulf of mexico.

  227. tacticalemu says:

    im not sure if it has been said but at about 50.765 seconds, time given by url at top, it appears that a watch worn by those in question gives a time of about either 8:15 or 5:15, not sure if these times have any significance or if they are right…

  228. gillehy says:

    Yo,

    notived you have added the sub but missed out the russian star on its tower. possibility of russian nuclear subs? russian nuclear aggression? who knows but it re-enforces that it looks like some missions will be at sea with the divers and such.

  229. miamiking86 says:

    Maybe the third perk might mean dual weld weapons. although i cant see 2x m60’s going on, or two barret 50’s lol

  230. jack daniels says:

    that isnt a body floating. its a scuba diver. obviously. i dont even study this shit and thats obvious. i mean you got the same person in the same stance from that pic in another. come on now

  231. Tyler DeFazio says:

    Just a thought, but the teddy bear could be the same one that pops up every now and then in the new Zombie map in WaW when you try for a weapon in the mystery box (after getting it, the box warps to a different location). This could allude to there being a similar mode in MW2.

  232. jamie taylor ( jamilalabilibob ) says:

    hey guys, i work for IW…

    the teddy bear is featured in all online maps for cod 4 and WaW, and also in the nazi zombie mode, in mod2 there will be a new zombie type game but obviously not with nazi’s ( i cant reveal the identity of those used ), the images are perks that will be used in the game,
    the first one is stopping power

    second is a new type of extreme conditioning ( use weapons whilst sprinting but with a huge hud )

    third is two knives crossing, it is a new perk which is a sort of stab vest which reduces damge from knife attcks

    fourth is sonic boom perk although named differently

    the final arrow is not a perk but as most have rightly pointed out it is just to fit in with the airport setting

    the multiplayer maps will be set mainly in the middle east again, with others in brazil, russia and one in America (washington)

    good work on the analysis though guys, respect that work, add me if you want on ps3 ( JAMILALABILIBOB )

    • New Jerseyan says:

      It’s obviously the statue of Jesus from the Rio de Janeiro in Brazil- sorry to be blunt but some of you probably WANT to believe the game will take place in the UK but the facts don’t support the North Angel statue theory. Also that is definitely a SCUBA diver, but underwater mines can’t be written out as proximity explosives seem to be a staple of the COD4 franchise (although still COD, [unlike Modern Warfare2] COD4 must be analyzed using COD4 as a reference, I don’t see underwater proximity/pressure/etc. mines being left out). Also I don’t think the one perk could be a Nuclear weapon as the sheer destructive force would have to end any game . . .), also I don’t think Infinity Ward got lazy and copied another game’s story (not calling anyone out here . . .) as COD4 was such an amazing game I just don’t think IW could likely get cocky and lazy and copy, do lazy people make amazing games like COD4? No, I believe they worked tirelessly on it.

  233. Просто отлично написано! Надобыотметить на ХабрХабр. :)

  234. New Jerseyan says:

    Holy Shit! Maybe the arrow pointed down is saying all new perk requests and all perks are going down. I don’t believe so but it is definitely a possibility that should be thought about. It does make you think, what if . . .

  235. XAN says:

    Весьма тонко подмечено. В чем-то себя узнал :)

  236. putters211 says:

    the teddy bear is to remind people the terror and cruelity of war that noone is safe it is always seen with rips in it and bloody

  237. The most important park of the teaser is the showing of perk icons. The 3rd icon with what looks like blades crossed seems to be the most interesting. My theory is that this perk makes the person able to survive being knifed. This could be accomplished by going into a Gears of War 2 button mashing fest or by the person just being able to survive the knife wound.

  238. minicube555 says:

    He says remember no russian.. Which sounds like he means it so that they do not speak russian.

  239. John Grand says:

    This is by far the worst analyzation I’ve ever fucking seen. “slimy ball” what the fuck is that shit. You’re obviously a little to high or strung out to even pay attention to anything in that teaser. Just stop trying to analyze stuff and give up on life.

  240. Edin Kesetovic says:

    In the trailer, it shows this: M 1 2 and then a partially sealed off 3. I’m a Bosnian, and my Bosnian friend who has a cousin that works at Microsoft Game Studios said that Modern Warfare 3 is going to be about the bloody conflict in Bosnia and Croatia from 1992-1995.

    But, anyway, let’s focus on here. If you listen closely, one of the Russians says “Remember, no Russian.” This obviously is a clue to his Comrade to not speak in Russian while slaughtering innocent people in an airport. He also says what sounds like Bog je sa nama which in Bosnian means God is with us. How do i know? Because Russian is Slavic, so is Bosnian. A lot of Bosnian is derived from Russian. Just trying to make some comparisons.

    Never forget what happened in Srebrenica in 95. 4000 innocent souls taken just because of what they believed.

  241. the real teddy bear answer says:

    Excuse me but I have a theory about the tedy bear:
    In CoD 4 in the epilouge stage, when the plane door blasts open and you clear the floor, before going up stairs, look down at the door, you will find a teddy bear flying out the door. Maby this is the same teddy bear. Maby that plane will land in that airport. We will never know until the game comes out.

    PS- Sorry for not spelling corectly

    • Nascar says:

      I think the teddy bear is from call of duty world at war in the second and third zombie maps. This may be show there will be a zombie map in modern warfare 2

    • canadiansmartass says:

      the plane isnt gunna land because when u clear the plane with the hostage u see the plane blow up

  242. patriot says:

    wowowow. ok heres what is happening without a doubt. The 2 men are russian and are in an airport in rio de janeiro. the statue is the jesus statue everyone thinks it is its on the cliff and everything. the russians are trying to start a north-south american war or some similar situation bc they didnt want to speak russian so they would think they were americans bc of the english. as for the perks. 1. stopping power without a doubt. 2. faster/longer/both sprint. 3. either no knife for you but also immune to knives (stupid but possible) or the more likely option, just like in cod4 campaign you can hit B for about a half second and stop a dog biting you or something, you can do that when someone knifes you to stop them. that is my opinion for what it is. 4. is one of 2 things. similar sonic boom perk OR you can fall greater heights without dying or “breaking your legs” as most call it. 5. is NOT a perk. its an arrow pointing you in some direction at the air port to the gates or similar place.

    i would like to hear your opinions on my idea i think its pretty damn solid

  243. Dav says:

    I came on this site by accident, and having watched and listened to the trailers before, there are only two things said in the elevator and then only by the guy on the left. “Standby” and “Remember, no Russian”.

    Cast your minds back to Die Hard when they said, “English only” because they didn’t want anyone to know they were German. Same deal.

    I’m also surprised that no-one has spotted the Virgin Mary – cos there isn’t one! Its Rio, Brazil. Not Newcastle, UK.

  244. canadiansmartass says:

    has no one seen the reveal teaser u start in a russian airport move to either some where in russia in winter then rio or go to rio then to russia

  245. Ian says:

    I didnt read 336 responses, but I think that cross is a cross on a hill in Rio de Janero (WTC) which implies that there might be spec ops missions (3 playable characters).

  246. NATI KIDMD says:

    The First Perk Is stopping power, second could be for last stand because the picture for it looks like a foot getting cut off but who know it could just be new goodyear tires for the hummers. the third one looks like a new over kill, the fourth look like artillery strike markers and the forth one is to get a skateboard from skate, na but that would be amazing, but in the military the meaning for an arrow pointing down is for ROUNDs or ammuntion, maybe its for bigger capasity mags, or something. because the perk is the one in the video that is bigger than others and the people in the elivator had just reloaded. so maybe its more ammo or somthin i don’t know im bored just thoght to help get everybody thinking. i’m at school bored otherwise i would be skateboarding with the so called lie i have

  247. Andrew says:

    The “O Cristo Redentor” thing…I don’t think it is a statue or anything like that, but just a helicopter tail rotor. It seems too small and out of the way tucked in a corner like that to be something as important as a country where the game takes place.

  248. Andrew says:

    I just looked over the Infamy trailer and the airport isn’t in Brazil or South America for that matter. It is in Russia:
    1.00:18 there is Russian text in the background
    2.00:24 there is a Russian flag hanging on the wall

    Some other stuff:
    1.00:54 NIKOLAI!!!!
    2.01:35 Washington Monument in ruins=fighting in WASHINGTON D.C.!

  249. Dunkninja says:

    3rd Perk = LIGHTWEIGHT MAKES U MOVE FASTER

    TEDDY BEAR MEANS NOTHING
    WTF @ TRAMPOLINE
    THE OTHER PART WAS TERRORIST SHOOTING DOWN CIVILIANS AT THE AIRPORT
    AJJAJAJA U GUYS SO LATE
