Activision is leaving no stone unturned in offering engaging content to Call of Duty players of Modern Warfare II. Since the launch of Season 1 for the ongoing title, it has witnessed a lot of refinements and changes. They have been focusing on adding new mechanics, maps, and also several unexpected modes too.

Continuing this pattern in the new year as well, the makers recently rolled out another fresh mode called Bounty. It was just added a day ago in Call of Duty Modern Warfare II. At first, some users might assume that it is similar to Team Deathmatch. However, that’s not the case entirely.

However, the bigger change was witnessed in the Multiplayer setup as the previously introduced Control mode is nowhere to be seen. It’s been replaced by Bounty in Call of Duty Modern Warfare II. Basically it requires the players to take down high value targets (HVTs) in a fashion similar to Team Deathmatch.

Yes, it is somewhat similar to TDM, yet there is one major difference between the two. In Bounty, players with the most kills (from both the teams) eventually become high value targets. After that, their positions will be displayed on the map very clearly so that other players can take them down.

While the HVTs will need to prevent themselves from getting killed, other players who manage to kill them will earn double points for their respective teams. The most interesting thing about this mode is that the HVTs always keep changing depending on who is consistently scoring more kills in a given match.
