In Call of Duty MW3, the classic perk system has been reworked into different types of equipment, including vests that provide unique boosts to the player. Here’s a list of all the new vests and how to unlock them in MW3.
All new vests in MW3
In MW3, players need to be selective about which vest they choose to equip. Although there are six vests, each of them will allow you to carry a specific number of tactical, lethal, field upgrades, gloves, boots, and gear. You need to keep in mind that some of these vests increase the slots of the items you can carry while others decrease it.
The six vests areInfantry,Demolition,Overkill,CCTComms,Gunner, andEngineer. To unlock these vests in MW3, you need to progress in Multiplayer. I recommend using double XP tokens to get a boost while playing Multiplayer in MW3.
How to unlock the Infantry vest in MW3
Out of the six vests, the Infantry Vest is the only one that remains unlocked early on for players to equip. Use this vest with theRunning Sneakers, and your operator will acquire the effects ofLightweight Boots. While equipped, this vest increases Tac-Sprint duration and lowers the refresh time. With the Infantry Vest, you’ll get to use both weapons, tactical and lethal equipment, along with a field upgrade of your choice.
How to unlock the Engineer vest in MW3
The Engineer Vest can spot enemy equipment, field upgrades, and killstreaks through walls much like the Spotter Perk used to back in MW2. It comes with a fast field upgrade recharge, and you can aim down sights to highlight enemy equipment for your team to see. To unlock the Engineer Vest in MW3, you need to reachLevel 10.
