Activision has been working hard on making Call of Duty Modern Warfare II as good as possible in the recent months. It seems like the efforts have paid off as well – at least in some proportions.

The recent addition of a mode called Cranked has impressed numerous fans. It’s been one of the most iconic modes in the franchise. Thus, getting it in Modern Warfare II is a reason of happiness for many players.

In case anyone is not aware about it, Cranked is a Multiplayer mode in which players get a boost in their movement speed with each successive kill. In other words, it’s a no-holds-barred experience that kicks camping out of the way. Because if the players don’t move to hunt down and kill their opponents under the given time, they end up exploding!

Recently, renowned YouTuber TheXclusiveAce came up with an interesting take on Cranked in Call of Duty Modern Warfare II. In one of his newest clips, he tried to explain how this MP mode has improved the movement speed, while eliminating the need to try jump shots.

The way Modern Warfare II has been designed, it provides new ways of moving across the map. Specifically when it comes to aiming and taking shots. By now, most of the players have become habitual of attempting jump shots whenever possible. Thus, the regular method of strafing and shooting has been mostly sidelined.

However, with Cranked giving an enormous boost for aim walking movement speed, players who don’t want to jump shot can simply take their opponents down by having a better strafing speed. Especially in terms of strafing in gunfights and to strafe around a corner, rather than jumping constantly to aim and shoot.
