    A truly awful game

    Think of what made the original Modern Warfare games good.

    Now take all of that away.

    That's Modern Warfare 3.

    It is a lazy add on of last year's game (which was far superior although not as good as the original.) The graphics are somehow far worse than they were in MW 2019, which had one of the best campaigns in COD history in my opinion.

    The campaign's story feels like it was written by unintelligent robots. Makes no sense at all.

    The missions are war zone maps and complete one man army scenarios. No interesting set pieces or anything, you just run around picking up guns and killstreaks all alone. It's not a realistic war game like the old MW ones, it's a silly mess that makes over the top Hollywood blockbusters look like documentaries.

    The only decent mission is the first one. The voice acting comes across as forced. It's only about 3 hours long which is 3 hours too long, because they'd be better of not having one in the first place.

    There is no love, no care put into this game and none of the charm that made the old MW games great.

    MW 2019 was a very good game and the best COD made since Black Ops 2.

    MW2 2022 was a decent game and was better than this one in every way imaginable.

    The multiplayer is the same as last year's game but with a few old maps thrown into it, yet they are all nowhere near as fun to play on.

    I feel completely betrayed buying this game and would implore all who read this review to not buy this disaster.

    Probably my least favorite cod

    First of all....the campaign.....too short and just not memorable....others cod titles were interesting enough that I could replay the campaigns...this one....nah. Second...multiplayer modes....player vs player mode like team death match are pretty much what you'd expect....mostly players camping and sniping but it is what it is and leaves you feeling like camp or be camped....and tbh...I end up disabling cross platform in multiplayer to avoid the players on pc platform who use cheats....but what I don't care for the most is zombie mode....its a good idea that was extremely poorly implemented. Why only 3 players on a squad? Seems like a lazy port from DMZ. Also....the matches are just too short....by the time you get enough money to really play in the red zone....its time to exfill....sure you can get schematics to upgrade and pack a punch guns...but you need to craft them and the ones you really need have a three day cool down before you can craft another one....thats right...three days lol. And the worst part is that is you don't exfill...you lose items like a large backpack and level three armor and other things....which isn't the bad part....the bad part is if you get disconnected from the game by no part of your own....you lose your stuff....which for me...after it happens enough times...completely turns me off from play MWZ.... Id much rather play Cold War Zombies....overall, MW3 is meh for me.

    Campaign is the biggest loss here

    Start off by saying I've been playing Call of Duty for over 10 years and I've never played a Call of Duty with a bad ending like Modern Warfare III. They just made this to basically tell you that's there's going to be about squeal ( basically Modern Warfare IV). The combat missions are the absolute worst I rather be playing Warzone or a Tom Clancy open world game. Multiplayer I'll give a 8, it takes the cake here and Zombies I'll give a 7. Conclusion: It's not the worst Call of Duty or the best, the developers could've done so much more with the campaign, so I think a 5/10 is the perfect rating.

    I regret getting this.

    I really wish I had never wasted my money on this in the first place. There's nothing entirely different about it. It's literally just an add on. A DLC. But yet they classify it as this brand new game, which it's not. I wish they hadn't had come out with it too soon or I also just wish this had never been made at all.

    The campaign I don't care about. Personally, I don't play campaigns anymore and haven't in a long time.

    The multiplayer. Literally just the same. Just like the multiplayer from MW1 and 2. It's fine I guess. Although it can just feel repetitive at times.

    The zombies. What in the world? It all just feels too easy, too open, too free, but overall, EMPTY and LIFELESS. You're just running around on this huge ass map, with your teammates, shooting any zombies that you see and that's really about it. I at least thought zombies would be decent, but turns out I was so bored playing it and I was heavily disappointed. Making zombies Open World was a huge mistake. I'd rather go back to BO3 zombies or any of the other ones where you actually had ROUNDS and it was an engaging challenge.

    All in all, I regret purchasing $70 for Modern Warfare 3 or as I should say Modern Warfare 2, but with a bunch of crappy add ons. I don't see how anyone can find the hype in this. There's none. I think it is probably just time for Call Of Duty to come to an end in general. They've had their run for awhile. It's clear to see that the games they are coming out with are not getting any better. I for sure will not be purchasing the next Call Of Duty, whatever it'll be.

    Poor just so very poor

    I can't believe that they have single handily destroyed the modern warfare franchise I have not felt this upset since the new battlefield came out. This is a mockery to all the call of duty fans. The graphics are awful it is like we have taken a step back the story line omg what story line it's like all they do is talk about kicking a## but never do. All the people that where apart of making this game needs sacking with immediate affect. Rehashed maps - laughable campaign - nothing new and that will be £70 please. I have been scammed no two ways about it. I can't understand how modern warfare one and two were groundbreaking yet this modern warfare 3 the only thing it breaks is your soul. Stick to modern warfare one or two this is going back to the shop!

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      In the Trojan Horse mission appears a dog that if you point the cursor at him, it's named Riley. This is a reference to Call Of Duty: Ghosts, which appears a dog with the same name.
    • Goofs
      Several times Ghost is referred to as LT or Lootenant. The British army doesn't use 'LT' and the correct pronounciation of the rank of Lieutenant in the UK is 'Leftenant.' At a push the NCO's could refer to him as 'Rupert' the British Army's over rank reference to an officer.
    • Alternate versions
      10 months after release, the multiplayer was modified for violence in Germany to remove the kill effects, blueprints, and even much of the gore effects in zombies mode. The censorship is more so on Activision's part than the USK because they've failed to send the latest live service version updates to the USK for a fresh submission as it's required by the USK to send latest live service version updates to them for a rating examination each time it adds new content.
