Knowing how to slide cancel in Modern Warfare 2 is a skill that many thought had been eradicated from the FPS game, a peculiar movement that sees your character hop into a knee-slide, gain speed, then jump straight back up. It was a method used to ‘break’ someone’s camera, meaning that you were much harder to track, and therefore, much harder to shoot.
Slide cancelling in Modern Warfare 2 is alive and well, although the method to perform the manoeuver is a lot more complicated than in the previous Call of Duty games. It remains to be seen whether the slide cancel will be as useful as years gone by, but if you manage to master it, it’s sure to get you out of some scrapes. Here’s how to slide cancel in Modern Warfare 2.
