Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Seeing as it comes out in a week I thought I would make a thread for it.

Locations of maps and story:
USA - New York
England - London
Germany - Hamburg and Berlin
France - Paris
Africa - Sierra Leonne and Somalia
India - Kharmashu
Russia - Moscow
Czech Republic - Praque

Discuss

Oh Czech Republic is a location?

Sooo close to Poland

From what I've heard/seen, the campaign mode is a load of shite. It's really fantasy.

It's a shame. Ever since COD2, Call of Duty has become unrealistic and ghey. At least COD2 was factual.

Campaign is never really great though. Their fan focus is on multiplayer which is great.

i love cod campaigns always fun to me

Multiplayer is the only reason why I'm getting it

If they made a COD set in the First World War, I'd be very happy. No idea why game developers forget WWI when they make a game. Obviously all the obese pre-teens in America will cry if they went from fantasy future warfare back to 1914. But I reckon it would be boss.

CoD 4's story was quite good. But from then on it got shit.. Unfortunately when you're making up your own war it's impossible not to get carried away. Going back to WW1 will be a step back in terms of what you can do. The multiplayer won't be the same because there's nowhere near as many options back in those days. You'll be stuck with a gun and a few grenades, end of. People and the developers have seen enough of WW1 & 2 and want to move onto where they can put their own ideas and creativity into the game.

Anyone getting the Hardened edition or already pre-order it? I forgot to preorder so it's sold out everywhere. I called a few places though and they are getting a few in store. I'll be heading to my local Target in the morning on November 8.

Where abouts have you all pre-ordered, if you have?

MW2 campaign was outstanding. It was like watching a movie, I was horrified when we killed the British guy after the log cabin mission.

Can't wait to play this one, getting it first day.

On the issues of game settings, modern warfare will be the biggest seller as usual. But I loved World at War, that game was outstanding online.

World At War was amazing when released.

But if you go back to play it.... lol. Feels strange and crappish.

My brother purchased the game and it will be at my house between 9-11 nov

I have exam 9 nov and 10 nov so hopefully it comes on the 11th

It's modern.......it has to be fictional. I doubt they would be allowed to do a factual campaign on recent wars.....too much legal opposition.

It's unrealistic, maybe......but if it wasn't it would be pretty shitty.

Probably because the Modern Warfare games have had better reviews and are more popular. Wtf would they do with a WW1 game???? Camp in a trench all day maps/campaign?

Meh, I won't like CoD whenever it is based.....the problem is the gameplay not the story. I will only play MW3 for the campaign (I won't even buy it, I'll just play my brother's 360 version)

Might get this in a years time. Campaigns are pretty good. Shame the online is rubbish (or rather I am rubbish at it)

Pip going against pretty much every single COD gamer on the planet there..

7 days to go

I struggle to get one kill a game on Boot Camp.

Is MW3 Released on the 8th or the 11th in the UK?

8th.

Not sure whether I'm going to get this on release, or a wait a bit.. might even wait for Christmas.

8th.

Oh good, i have thought its been 11th all this time

I'd get it on Release, its not going to be much cheaper at Christmas, maybe dropped by £10 and im sure it will be worth it.

Not really about the price drop, just the fact I don't want to spend so much money around one period on games.. and I'm sure I could get it for Christmas which would save me buying it.

Wish I pre ordered this now.. if I get it on Tuesday I'll have to go hunting for it.

The First World War wasn't just sitting in a trench all day.

Besides, they can't go back and do one now. But they probably should have. Call of Duty 3 was shite. They should have done it then.

Can get it for 35 online with Sainsburys but don't trust them.

Hmm, if you spend 30 pound in store you can get it for 28.99 apparently.

It looks like MW2.

And MW2 looked like MW1

Never been much of a fan of FPS. Shit at them as well.
