Modern Warfare 3 is due to launch on November 10, bringing with it a number of huge changes to Call of Duty. One of those is the use of ‘gear’ as perks, and these leaked sets of boots and gloves could give you a good idea of what to expect from them.
In MW3, it looks like the traditional perk system has been foregone in favor of using gear, according to rumors online. Boots changes to movement, such as operating as a Dead Silence perk, gloves for weapon handling, and more are expected to be leaked or announced in the coming weeks.
