Your research checklist

Prepare your information, then your run

Editorial planning aid: these are research tasks, not confirmed MW4 mission or extraction instructions.

Check release and platform availability before looking for an installer.
Look for verified map and extraction-point information.
Read the prerequisites and objectives for the mission you plan to attempt.
Compare sourced weapon details rather than assuming a universal best build.
Recheck verification status after a season update.
