How to unlock Dead Silence in MW 2 Beta

The Dead Silence Field Upgrade is not available immediately. You need to upgrade your profile to level 30. When you reach that point, you can turn it into a custom loadout and use it for your favorite perks, weapons, and gear. If you haven’t gotten to that point yet, the only way to use Dead Silence is to spawn into the game using pre-built loadouts that the MW 2 team has made available to all.

How to use Dead Silence in MW 2 Beta

Dead Silence is not immediately available when you start a match. It’s a field upgrade that needs time to charge before you use it. It may take a life or two before you can use it, typically two minutes into a game’s start. After this duration, the icon will appear at the bottom left of your screen where Dead Silence is available and has a yellow border. You can activate it by clicking the R1 and L1 buttons or the RB and LB buttons to activate the field upgrade. The outside of your screen has a small, white aura that indicates Dead Silence is activated. It will only work for a limited time.
