Level Up Faster in MW2 by Completing Challenges

To level up faster, MW2 offers Daily and Career challenges. These challenges offer a ton of XP and will help you level up as quickly as possible.

These Daily Challenges are available in both Multiplayer and Spec Ops!

Daily Challenges in MW2 Multiplayer

Daily Challenges offers you thousands of XP every 24 hours. According to Call of Duty’s blog post on progression, there are three different sets of daily challenges in Multiplayer.

• A general challenge that may not require much change in playstyle (e.g., win a match in any mode, get 15 kills while aiming down sights).
• A weapon challenge that focuses on a specific weapon category (e.g., get 5 headshots with an SMG, get 5 Sniper Rifle kills)
• A special challenge that encourages exploration with specific Loadout features, such as a Field Upgrade or Perk (e.g., get 2 kills using Dead Silence, get a Drill Charge kill).

Once you have completed these challenges you will also be offered a chance to complete a bonus challenge for XP!

The bonus challenge will give you two challenges you can complete but you will only need to complete one to unlock the bonus XP.

Daily Challenges in MW2 Spec Ops

Spec Ops Daily Challenges will offer you thousands of XP and it refreshes every 24 hours. There are three different sets of Spec Ops Daily Challenges.

• The first Daily Challenge is generic, which means it can be completed in any mission (e.g., get 5 Melee kills).
• The second and third Daily Challenges can be generic (e.g., use a Field Upgrade 3 times) or mission-specific (e.g., destroy 4 vehicles in Denied Area), or co-operative specific (related to Special Ops Kits, for example).

The Bonus Challenge for Spec Ops is split into two, where you have a choice between one of two Mission challenges.

Career Challenges in MW2

Career Challenges are challenges with milestone steps, offering XP along the way to fully complete the challenge.

These challenges will include objectives you can complete naturally over time such as “Win X amount of Matches”. However, some may require you to switch up how you play by asking you to get kills with specific weapons.
