Modern Warfare 2 has a brand-new perk system, where players are required to select two base perks which are active at the beginning of the game. Users will then earn a bonus perk that starts partway through the match, with an ultimate perk that unlocks later. While some perks in Modern Warfare 2 are better than others, gamers now discuss the worst perks in the game.

A Reddit user has made a new post asking other players to name the most worthless perk in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The poster considers it to be Battle Hardened, one of the base perks in Modern Warfare 2, but it looks like fans in the comments section have different opinions. Judging by the replies, many Call of Duty fans consider Survivor to be the most useless perk in the game, with some stating that Battle Hardened is not that bad.
For those unaware of its benefits, Battle Hardened reduces the effectiveness of flash, stun, gas grenades, and some other tactical pieces of equipment used by opponents. While it may not be that useful in standard matches, some fans mention that Battle Hardened is extremely helpful while playing on Shipment, as different enemies regularly throw flash grenades while playing on this map. Some players consider it a must-have perk on Shipment in Modern Warfare 2, with many more votes for Survivor as the worst perk.
Survivor is an ultimate perk in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, and it allows players to enter a last-stand mode upon death. Fans can then revive themselves once per life, but its ability probably doesn’t suit the fast-paced combat of a Call of Duty game. However, a few users believe that Survivor can be useful for players interested in sniping opponents, as they can crawl away and revive themselves without being in immediate danger.
There are many useful perks in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, and fans create their own unique combos using the new system. As an example, gamers can try out a mixture of Bomb Squad, Overkill, Cold Blooded, and Overclock for an offensive and defensive boost, but this is just one option out of many possible combinations.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
