Karachi

Karachi is a map in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 set in Karachi, Pakistan. The factions are the Navy SEALs and the OpFor. It takes place in a town setting. There are many buildings to enter and attack from. The most popular area is made up of an alleyway and two buildings connected by a balcony connected by two ladders.

Tips

 * It's very easy to get multi-kills with a Predator Missile or a shotgun in Karachi, as many people will crowd in a building.
 * The best places to call in a Care Package is the far back of the SEAL spawn, as there is only one way into that area, and the far back of the OpFor spawn near the school, as hardly anyone ever goes there.
 * Rooftop camping is an easy way to complete the Prone Shot challenges.
 * UAVs are not effective here, since opponents hidden in buildings will appear as enemies on the ground floor, when they are really on the top floor.
 * You can camp in the are directly in front of the seals spawn point.

Trivia

 * If you go in spectator mode you can see parts of Shock and Awe, suggesting that this level takes place in the same area.
 * If you go left of the starting OpFor spawn, you will see the construction building from Backlot in Call of Duty 4. (This building can also be entered using the elevator glitch)
 * Near the Navy SEALs spawn behind the iron fence near the docks there are 3 Zodiacs, which is probably how the SEALs arrived in the first place.
 * Karāchi is a real city, in the southern part of Pakistan. However, Pakistan is an Urdu-speaking country in South Asia, whereas this map looks more Middle Eastern and the signs are in Arabic. Many of the signs are in French, as well, which doesn't appear in the Muslim world outside of Lebanon or Syria.
 * The map is in fact a greatly scaled up port of the Counter-Strike custom map de_karachi. In fact the modder who made de_karachi (CompoSITe) now works for IW and is the very designer of the MW2 map.
 * If you look around the map you can see the name Composite from the above quote.
