In Modern Warfare 2, a point-blank kill is when a player kills a target standing less than five meters away from them. Players can earn bonus XP for pulling off different accolades in the game, and point-blank kills are one of them. To get more point-blank kills, players can hold closer angles in choke positions, which means standing in at least a 45-degree angle so that players cannot see them as they push around a corner. A choke position is almost like a bottleneck, and players will have to run through this area to progress to a different position. Using close-range weapons like shotguns can also help players rack up these kills. While camping is not an ideal tactic, it can help players secure more point-blank kills.
