Focusing on the customization options, players can now assign unique symbols and icons to their Clan tag.

Adding symbols or icons to one's Clan tag in MW2 is quite easy and can be accomplished within a matter of seconds. Users won't be required to install any third-party apps or software to use the icons, as this feature is built within the game. However, what players will need are codes for these symbols and icons.

These symbols and icons, like changing the color of your name, take the form of codes, which are entered into the Clan tag section of the player's profile. This makes the user stand out from the rest of the lobby and often attracts attention.

Here's how you can add symbols and icons to your Clan tag in Modern Warfare 2:

1) First, launch Modern Warfare 2 and select "Edit Clan Tag." You can find this under the profile options in the top right corner of your screen.

2) Here, insert NKo (Unicode block) characters. [Check the section below]

3) Now press the 'Save' button and exit. The icon/symbol will now be added to your Clan tag section.

4) If you wish to remove it, simply remove all the characters from the Edit Clan tag section and proceed to save it.

Note: This method only functions with a keyboard, so it won't work for you if you use a PlayStation or Xbox system.
