Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

What'd you like to see? My take:

Napalm: After initial airstrike, the burning jelly stays behind with flames on most surfaces. Sorta denies the area to the enemy, but they can navigate through it at the risk of taking damage/death.

Ninja assassins:

11 kills and you pull out the laptop, mark a section and a large smoke grenade goes off in that area. the enemy hear swishing sounds and blood splatters on the screen and everyone dies in the area :mrgreen:

The killstreaks was something I really didn't care for in this game. I didn't mind it so much in world at war because I didn't think it got as out of hand. I will say the dogs did get pretty annoying though. So with that being said I wish they would leave it to like three things were you could get them after 3, 5, and 7. Than that is it for me I would like it better.

**DaCajun** · 04-11-2010, 20:12

I personally think the kill streak is a stupid gimmick and then they made it worse by having a death streak. I will never ever buy a MW game again after the first one. That franchise is the most glitchiest, biggest lag fest, most hacked, and most cheated at game around. Oh yeah way over priced for 4-6 hour single player with that horrid multi-player and over priced map packs. Sorry but just my opinion.

Activision executives confirm new first-person installment in series will arrive in latter half of next year; no word on developer.

Today, Activision Blizzard issued a better-than-expected earnings report in which it announced a $51 million quarterly profit. In a conference call with analysts afterwards, executives revealed further details on the publisher's future plans.

One detail that was revealed was that the Call of Duty series will once again have a fresh first-person installment late next year. "We will launch a new first-person action title during the back half of 2011," Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg said. This sentiment was later echoed by Activision COO Thomas Tippl, who said that "Next year's Call of Duty will be a first-person shooter."

The executives did not name the game or which studio was developing it. A likely suspect is Modern Warfare 3, which court documents identified as being in development at Infinity Ward as of May. That same month, Activision said the studio, which had lost over 35 members following the firing of its founders in March, continued to work on its "next big project."

A second Call of Duty is also in the works from newly formed studio Sledgehammer Games. Though Activision has said this title would take the Call of Duty series into the action-adventure genre, third-person, a May job listing indicated it would also be a first-person shooter. Activision has not said when the Sledgehammer title will be released, but said it was not the unnamed COD project slated for next year--presumably Modern Warfare 3.

After struggling with reaching a potential release date of November, it looks like Infinity Ward, under the direction of Activision, has enlisted the help of developer Sledgehammer Games to complete their latest Call of Duty game, perhaps titled Modern Warfare 3.

Most likely not being able to meet the strict time demands needed to put out a top tier title after having lost their leadership and a ton of creative talent, Activision has not only turned to Sledgehammer but also to Raven Software to act as reinforcements, boosting the man power.

Interesting stuff.

Unless MW3 is absolutely amazing, Black Ops will be my last sojourn in to playing every CoD game. I am not going to get new CoD games each year.

**jack** · 01-30-2011, 07:22

I'm with jack on this one. Looks like ima rent for singleplayer. IW is just a shell of a company now, they have lost to much creative talent and experience

So true, it's such a shame too... but in my eyes Activision really messed up with IW.

When it was first announced that one of the next iterations of the Call of Duty franchise (most likely Modern Warfare 3), would feature Ghost from Modern Warfare 2, many passed it off as another rumor regarding the franchise’s uncertain future.

As it turns out, thanks to an article from UK’s Official PlayStation Magazine, that Call of Duty title might actually be in development. Furthermore, the magazine claims that this next title will be developed by none other than the new version of Infinity Ward.

Beyond the mention in OPM, there is no word as to whether this is definitively Modern Warfare 3, the same title that Infinity Ward needed to have both Raven Software and Sledgehammer step in on to develop for this year’s annual Call of Duty Fall release, or if this is something IW has on their docket for the future.

Yeah, I want to finish up Soap's story. Can't say I'd be all excited to play as Ghost.

**toby2533** · 02-25-2011, 12:51

My view is I'm sick COD MW its the same stuff just different weapons, I would like them to actually go the sci/fi route star wars FPS, just think of a Hoth map, the only thing is everyone will get it and I'll feel i need to also just to play on line.

Same here... but it should be an interesting introspective none the less.

We received a pair of bloodied up dog tags (pictured below) and transcribed what’s written on the tags. They lead to viral website hosting an intriguing countdown timer.

Upon visiting this site, findmakarov.com, you’re presented with a countdown timer with under 5 days left to go. Why, the Game Developers Conference is going to be happening in 5 days is it not? How interesting!

Starting on February 28th and ending March 4th, the GDC is likely where Activision’s big Call of Duty reveal will pop up. Modern Warfare 2 was also revealed at GDC back in 2009.

As I'm sure you've all heard by now.

yesterday we brought you news that we had received a Modern Warfare 3 care package from Activision teasing a major announcement. Whatever the announcement was supposed to be, the appearance of one of the series’ villains and an online countdown led us to believe that it had something to do with a Call of Duty title. Today, the publisher has come out and denied any connection to either the dog tags or the website FindMakarov.com counting down to… something. There goes our hope for new Call of Duty details in time for GDC. As it turns out, GameSlice‘s Geoff Keighley confirmed that the site is owned by Toronto-based group We Can Pretend (as we guessed from the package address info we received). The site is advertising the launch of their newest project based on Call of Duty, not a sequel.

"We believe that the Call of Duty franchise is as strong as ever – no matter what those guys put out. But we realize we can always do more to extend our reach. It only takes little tweaks, and we think that by not showing as much blood or not pushing the boundaries quite as fast, we can secure a “T” rating for the next Call of Duty. Which will enable us to go after an enormous demographic who might otherwise have been unable to play Call of Duty.”

“We’ll, we might not be able to allow the player to assassinate known figures anymore [laughs] but we can do it in a compelling and responsible way. There’s no doubt it’s a tricky line but we think that looking at a lot of war movies out there right now, you can balance mature content with high-octane action for a great experience – but maybe not show as much blood and guts. And, as a result, provide a title that a mother or father is more likely to pick-up for their kid – or even play themselves. Not to mention, it would allow many of our teenage consumers to walk right into a retailer and purchase a Call of Duty without a parent.” (Copied and pasted off above mentioned website)

This is BULLSHIT IMO!! If this goes through, I WILL NOT get this one! They (kids) are anoying enough as it is now! And they think that by dropping the rating, they can reach a younger, and by far much larger crowd? Do they not realize that stupid parents STILL buy the M rated game for their potty mouthed little kids anyways? I have been in Gamestop and saw parents buying BO for their little whinny kids who say they have GOT to have it 'cuz all his/(her in some cases) do! All this is, is a way for the company to make MORE money that has already made billions! And I think, that this will sink that mighty money ship! Anybody else think the same or got opinions?

**Crusty** · 04-14-2011, 21:51

Pretty much agreed. There is enough kids in it. Furthermore there is enough games for kids. Why can't mature adults have a couple of titles to themselves?

Plus what was always appealing about Call of Duty was the brutal realism in the story mode. The blood and guys enhanced that realism by depicting war as the grisly and gruesome affair that it is.

It better be. those shit heads, are always thinking about their pocket books. I swear if they do this, I'm done with the whole franchise... and as far as I'm concerned it can go the way of E.T. .

**Warhammer0351** · 04-15-2011, 07:09

Also, I think I'm just getting plain bored with BO. All the hackers, aimbots, etc. are getting really old. I used to play it all the time, but now, I hardly fire it up anymore. I might get on it for a little while until usually I start to get my ass handed to me by some little KID who starts to cuss and talk shit. Then I will put in something else, like Splatterhouse (when I had it, I need to buy that one) or Crysis 2. I'm just ready for a change. Maybe the new map pack will rekindle my interest in this game. If it does or not, I'm ready for Duke Nukem!!! LOL!!!
