Modern Warfare 3!

[Describe]

In relation to the IGN Rewind video at 2:05 -> 2:10 they mention the "return" of the grenade launcher but this doesn't necessary mean that they'll include it in the online play, does it? They change quite a bit from the single player into multiplayer.

Apparently these are the menus.



I guess they do look real, but at this stage it's unlikely.

I don't see why it would be unlikely, but I don't see how this guy has the game unless he is an actual tester whos paid. I wouldn't mind if it was, it's quite nice and how it is similar to MW2 means there's more chance it is real as they are clearly cutting corners from the delay of the whole law suit and ****. Also, that music is hot.

A write up of from joystick of 2 levels.

After a two-minute recap montage of everything that's happened thus far in the narratively impenetrable Modern Warfare saga -- wow, I barely remembered any of that! -- two people took the stage. On the left side, standing in front of a giant Infinity Ward logo was Robert Bowling, "creative strategist" at the troubled developer and, obviously, not one of the studio's now-fired founders. On the right side, standing in front of a giant Sledgehammer Games logo, was Glen Schofield, head of the newly formed studio that was originally slated to "extend the franchise into the action-adventure genre." Now, they were both on stage flanking an even larger Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 logo.

On top of all that, there is a lot of rumours going around that ghost is back. :rolleyes:

Interesting stuff. I think that the announcement trailer was purely intended to make us think it's ghost, when it actually isn't.

Edit: Ooo forgot to add, there are concerns about the london level.

We all know how games effect people’s lives in certain ways but sometimes they hit a nerve on subjects that some people wouldn’t dare touch. Activison’s upcoming first person shooter Modern Warfare 3 may have hit that nerve.

In the trailer released on May 23th a scene shows a train derailing and exploding in one of London’s underground tunnels,in response The Daily Mail reported that many UK citizens affected by the 7/7 bombings that hit London in 2003 found it distasteful. Vivienne Pattison, spokesman for campaign group Mediawatch UK, said:

‘I have concerns as these games are hyper-real and take place in a landscape we are familiar with. In light of the fact we have just had the 7/7 inquests, it is in incredibly poor taste.’

This is not the first time Activison and Modern Warfare 3 developers Infinity Ward have popped up on the radar of controversy. In Modern Warfare 2 campaign mission No Russian you controlled a CIA agent disguised as a terrorist killing innocent people in a Russian airport. This led to Infinity Ward inserting the option to skip the mission at the start of the game after the games release.

Website Spong have released what seems to be a statement from Activison about the campaign to ban the game in the UK.

Activision Statement

“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is a fictional action game aimed at mature adults and set in World War Three. The scenes in the game are entirely fictional and are not intended to recreate any historical events.”

http://content.usatoday.com/communit...rn-warfare-3/1 - specs ops vaguely detailed. Most important things to pick up on really is the match matching, a separate ranking system and leader boards. There is other information on there too but that's more specific to the game mode, which I think it's the survival one detailed.

[Chris]

Spec ops sounds quite good this time around. I'm also interested to hear more about this cod elite thing.

maybe its whats after prestige/ replacement for prestige (this ones unlikely). Maybe it challenges you to only have one weapon and one set of perks? :L idk im interested too.

WOW I LOVE THE MUSIC IN THOSE VIDEOS!

Fabulous find - this is turning out to be very interesting

[dbgtz]

People just see the English version of the reveal? Pretty much the same with a couple of new clips and a new voice speaking with new words, didn't quite hear it though although I thought it was price - doubt it was. Infact now I'm questioning if it was a different voice.

[Chris]

Been a leak today which has been crushed by 402. :L



I guess thats our first bit of MP info.
