Infinity Ward's latest multiplayer reveal for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 features, according to the developer, "uncut" direct feed Capture The Flag gameplay. Neat, yes, but there are some newish details seen for the first time within.

Some of those details you may have heard creep out from recent GameStop and Game Crazy get togethers. Things like Modern Warfare 2's thrown knife kills, featured near the end of the clip. Some, like brilliant-looking blood splatter effects and host migration, are definitely better seen and not heard.

If that host migration addition, also seen near the end of the clip, works that well... well, good lord. Looks like when the multiplayer game host drops out, the game won't end or drop players back to the lobby, but quickly—very quickly—find a new host. Perfect for when you're up against an elite group of Sore Losers.

And, you know, that riot shield gameplay doesn't look to shabby either. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 drops November 10, in case you hadn't heard.
