From the middle of last week, various sources on YouTube and the wider internet began posting details of the perks and kill / death streaks that will be available in Modern Warfare 3.
While I can’t assure you the following list is 100% accurate, it seems likely that it will be close to the mark. As with all of the recent Call of Duty titles, perks will be broken down into three different slots:
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 – perk analysis
MW3 Perks: Slot One

Pro perk: launchers lock on faster & extra damage against support killstreaks
Recon
Basic perk: enemies hit by explosives are shown on HUD
Pro perk: enemies hit by bullets are shown on HUD
MW3 Perks: Slot Two
Hardline
Basic perk: one less kill to obtain each kill streak

Overkill
Basic perk: equip with two primary weapons
Pro perk: can equip second weapon (which is a primary!) with 2 attachments
Quickdraw

Pro perk: less time to recover after using equipment or grenades (i.e. can perform next action quicker)
Blast Shield
Basic perk: less susceptible to explosive damage (as per Flak Jacket in Black Ops)
Pro perk: immune to stun and flash grenades (as per Tactical Mask Pro in Black Ops)
MW3 Perks: Slot 3
Sitrep
Basic perk: see location of enemy equipment, such as claymores
Pro perk: enemy footsteps will be amplified
Dead Silence
Basic perk: comparable to ninja (likely this will be silent footsteps, as per Ninja Pro in MW2)
Pro perk: no falling damage (a la Commando Pro in MW2)
Stalker
Basic perk: faster movement while aiming down sights
Pro perk: delay claymore explosions (comparable to Scrabler Pro in MW2)
Marksman
Basic perk: ability to ID target from range (similar to scouting ability in Battlefield Bad Company 2)
Pro perk: can hold breath for longer (beneficial to snipers, as per Steady Aim Pro in MW2)
Steady Aim
Basic perk: improved hip-fire accuracy
Pro perk: can aim down sights faster after sprinting
At this stage there doesn’t seem to be anything alarming about the available perks. This will no doubt be a relief to the millions of people who have already ordered their copy of MW3, which is already breaking records – several months before it is due to hit the shelves.
