This is a sub-page of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Windows, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3).

Profiles#

CODMW2-ProfileMenus-Select.png

Profiles were a feature present in the original Modern Warfare, which allowed the player to store multiple saves on one computer. However, this was one of the many other features that were axed during the game's development. This feature was likely scrapped late in the game's development as these menus look like the final game's menus. While its menus and localized strings are present in the game's files, the scripts they relied on are not.

CD Keys#

The game has a bunch of menus from when Infinity Ward was planning to require you to make an IWNet account on your own to play online on PC, including the option to input a CD Key. You can enter text into the fields, but the code for verifying CD Keys appear to no longer exist in the game's files.

Gear#

An unused Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare-style menu for an unused "Gear" feature. This menu includes an early version of the Killstreak customization menu. However, killstreaks here are divided into four set categories, with the first set having only the UAV and the fourth set having a "Helicopter Minigunner" (Chopper Gunner), a "Helicopter Grenadier" and the tactical nuke.

Start New Server#

A Call of Duty 4-style server creation menu. It is almost a verbatim copy of the one used in that game, down to the default server name being "COD4 Host". Cut due to dedicated servers being replaced with the matchmaking system.

Quick Messaging#

Another cut feature inherited from Call of Duty 4. The localization strings and appropriate voice lines are absent from this game.
