The Pit

"Clear all the enemy targets as fast as possible. Shooting civilians will prevent you from getting three stars."

- Level Desciption The Pit is one of the Special Ops missions from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The objective is to clear all enemy targets, while avoiding all civilians, and get to the end while being timed.

Overview

There are 24 enemy targets to take out and 5 civilian targets to avoid.

Trivia

 * Infinity Ward previously mentioned that one star would be awarded for completing a Special Ops mission on Regular, two stars for completing it on Hardened, and three stars for completing it on Veteran; however, this is untrue for this level, as there are no difficulty options available for it. Instead, the player's speed is the primary factor for the number of stars the player earns, with the 3-star award requiring no civilian hits.
 * The player will not receive the Pit Boss achievement/trophy if they complete this Op in under 30 seconds, it must be done in Modern Warfare 2's campaign.
