Perks

From the Call of Duty Wiki

Perks are Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 's, Call of Duty: World at War 's, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 's multiplayer modifiers that passively affect game play, allowing further customization of classes. They affect available equipment, effectiveness of the player's equipment, the usefulness of the enemy's equipment, and the physical properties of the player's character.

[edit] List of Perks in Modern Warfare 2

Along with standard perks, players will now be able to unlock improved "Pro" versions of certain perks by fulfilling certain requirements while using them. These "Pro" versions include the original abilities of the perk, but also add new benefits. Many of the perks thet were in Call of Duty 4 or 5 that are missing are now either part of a Pro perk, or available as weapon attachments, such as Deep Impact (FMJ), and Double Tap (Rapid Fire).
