In Modern Warfare 2, players can build a Perk Package composed of four Perks: two Base, one Bonus, and one Ultimate. The Base perks are always active. Meanwhile, the Bonus and Ultimate Perks are earned at the four-minute and eight-minute intervals. Finally, you can earn Bonus and Ultimate Perks faster by playing well and obtaining a high score.
