The Official MW3 Thread

Figured I'd get this started since info is coming out about it. It's all but announced, but Kotaku has some info on it already.

You Tube

Kotaku: The Modern Warfare 3 Files: Exclusive first details on the biggest game of 2011

From the article about single player:

-The game opens moments after the cliffhanger ending of Modern Warfare 2 with the U.S. struggling to stave off a surprise Russian attack.
-The single-player campaign will ping-pong players around the world as they take on the multiple throwaway roles as a Russian Federal Protective Services agent, SAS Operative, tank gunner, and AC-130 gunner as well as key characters from previous installments and new recurring characters.
-The game will feature about 15 missions, kicking off with the invasion of Manhattan by a Russian force and wrapping up with a final encounter in Dubai.
-Two new characters- Frost and Sandman.
-Multiplayer in the game returns with a chunky list of playable maps as well as two types of Spec Ops modes: "Survival" and "Mission".

Second article about the multiplayer-
Kotaku: Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer features battles in Brooklyn, Clash in Mogadishu

Key points-
-Modern Warfare 3 will have as many as 20 multiplayer maps
-The game will also include a powerful mix of mission-based and survival Special Ops modes.
-The survival maps will have players fighting until they're overcome by increasingly difficult waves of enemies. (Sounds like their version of Treyarch's Zombie mode.)

Gonna be sweet as fuck!

That Manhattan multiplayer map will be insane

[Tyler Juranovich]

I really think they(and every game for that matter) need to find a different enemy. Every COD game it's the Russians. The Cold War has been over for 20 years.

As for the game, I am hopeful that it will be good. They always do pretty well in the multiplayer gameplay, but I'd like to see a little more difficulty and depth in the story mode.

I'm sure it will just be more of the same, which is good and bad IMO. I have really enjoyed all of the CoD titles since MW1. I still play Black Ops (and MW2 when I see buddies online playing it) and have a good time doing it. I probably had about 30 days gameplay on MW1, about 20 on MW2, and I'm probably around 4 days on Black Ops. So, yeah, I've played a bit.

I do think they need to change up the game somehow (like use a new engine or something) but I don't want them to completely change the gameplay. I like the game because of it's pace, ability to just pick up and play a few games, fun factor, etc.
