Getting Polyatomic Camo isn’t something you can jump into right away in Modern Warfare 2. You’ll have to spend some time climbing the Mastery Camo ranks first. We’ve outlined the process for ranking up to Polyatomic Camo below:

  • Completing Base Camos challenges will unlock Gold Camo.
  • Completing all Gold Camo Mastery Challenges for a weapon class – eg: Assault Rifles, Marksman Rifles – will unlock Platinum Camo for that weapon class.
  • Repeating the process and completing Platinum Mastery Challenges – which require 200 kills with each weapon equipped with Platinum Camo – for all weapons in that class will unlock Polyatomic Camo.
