Tom Henderson quotes, “It’s understood that the first Raid coming to Modern Warfare 2 will have at least two puzzles involved; one focused on numbers and the other on a water maze.” He further explains how AI will play the most significant factor in this game mode and how it will affect the gameplay.
Furthermore, he provided details on the first mission of Raid. It will see players infiltrate an aquatic base, which will shed light on MW2’s marine combat and improved water mechanics. The mission will feature extensive underwater gameplay making it challenging for players to complete. Moreover, Raids will feature their own unique maps that were built from the ground map, providing players with a new playing ground.
