The rules of Gunfight mode in Modern Warfare 2 briefly explained

Gunfight is a popular mode where four players are divided into two teams in Modern Warfare 2. It focuses on intense gunfights in small maps and fast-paced rounds. The main motto of the mode is to eliminate enemies before they eliminate you. Below are all the rules mentioned in detail:

1) Teams: Two teams of two players compete in a round-based match.

2) Rounds: Players will have 40 seconds in each round to eliminate the other squad. If both teams survive the round, the Overtime flag will appear in the center of the map for 10 seconds.

The round is won by the team that takes the flag or eliminates the opposing team. If no team wins during Overtime, the team with the highest health will be declared the winner.

3) Weapons: All four players will receive a similar randomized loadout at the beginning of each round. It will change every two rounds.

4) Maps: Maps are small where close-quarter engagements are common and are suited for 2v2 endeavors. The maps included in Modern Warfare 2 are - Alley, Blacksite, Exhibit, and Shipment.

5) Health and respawn: Players will be in full health at the start of each round, but if they receive damage, their health will not be replenished, therefore players need to be cautious of their surroundings. Furthermore, if they die, they will not respawn in that round, but rather at the start of the next.

6) Objective: The team who can eliminate the opposition team will be crowned the winner of the round.

7) Equipment: Each loadout assigned to the players will include lethal and tactical equipment that will be identical to all.

8) Winner: The team which manages to win six rounds wins the match.
