Infinity Ward has released a complete list of the updates and tweaks coming to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 before its official launch. The majority of these changes are based on the feedback from the highly successful beta period.

In a post on the official website, Infinity Ward detailed the audio changes, enemy visibility, user interface, as well as movement.

For example, Infinity made several adjustments to things that previously made it difficult to tell allies from enemies. Nameplates are now removed as Infinity has added diamond-shaped indicators over the heads of enemies. In addition, Infinity has adjusted the illumination and contrast to improve enemy visibility. Finally, some fine-tuning to the audio will make the footstep volume of enemies more pronounced while teammates' footsteps are now much lower in volume. In line with this, Infinity has adjusted the Dead Silence field upgrade so that the activation sound effect isn't as loud.

Infinity Ward will address the issue with Modern Warfare 2's menu. It promises to have a more streamlined UI for the full release to make it easier to change load-outs, among other things.
