Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's New Invasion Mode Features AI Teammates

gamespot.com:

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is getting a ton of new game modes and changes, including the rumored third-person mode. Among those is a very different kind of Ground War match called Invasion, which will augment your regular human teammates and opponents with AI bots to make for a sprawling combat experience.

The Call of Duty blog says each team starts with multiple squads of Operators, fighting alongside AI combatants, all pursuing objectives from within their respective headquarters. Each team will be pushing forward to the front line, which shifts your respawn locations. And due to the AI teammates, it promises «more troops than any previous Ground War experience,» and the maps will be larger to facilitate the huge team size.
