Spec Ops missions in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Call of Duty: MW2 Guide
Last update: 14 May 2019
Spec Ops is a series of 23 missions divided into 5 groups - Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta and Echo. The difficulty goes up with every group and there's a big diversity in them. You can complete nearly all mission alone, without the help of a second player. Two missions can be completed ONLY with the help on another player. Those missions are: Overwatch (Bravo) and Big Brother (Bravo).
However if you do decide to play in co-op, be sure to use voice communication. It's really useful in many cases. Additionally playing with a friend extend your life - if you get injured, the second player has a limited time (depending on the difficulty setting) to heal you. You can still shoot while on the ground with a pistol. Getting shot another time will result in not being able to use the pistol anymore and another bullet will kill you.
You can earn stars in each mission - in total there's 69 (three for each mission). The amount you receive depends on the difficulty setting (sometimes the time in which you finish the mission also counts). The stars will let you unlock more mission groups and achievements.
To unlock more missions, you have to earn a given number of stars:
- Alpha - available from the beginning;
- Bravo - 4 stars;
- Charlie - 8 stars;
- Delta - 20 stars;
- Echo - 40 stars.
In the further part of the guide you will find a description of each Spec Ops mission and some hints on how to pass it on Veteran. Some solutions are quite unconventional.
