I loved MW2019. Last year's less so. Hard to get excited again but all MW2 remastered maps? That's awesome.

Which one of you animals is going to start the Official MW3 Thread? They already dropped 2 trailers and a lot of information has been released on this game over the past week or so. It would be nice to have a place where everyone screams stupid shit like:
1)This is copy pasta of the last game(s)
2) Didn't this game come out 12 years ago?
3) I was fondled by Activision, what legal recourse can I take?
4) How long before these studios close with Microsoft's historical incompetence & mismanagement
5) Too many Waifu Skins/Not enough Waifu Skins at $20+
6) How is this not on Gamepass already? (See also: I don't understand contracts)
7) Who would spend $70 on glorified DLC with a 6 hour campaign? (Me, I pre-ordered the $100 Vault Edition)
*Before anyone looks at me I barely know how to reply on this thread without screwing it up.*

Yep, Lara Croft is coming to COD (Sept 9th). Interesting they didn't use the character model from the last 3 games. I will assume it is a different voice actor as well.

Classic MW2 Maps fucked Up with doors everywhere and No Russian = Day Never
Modern Warfare 3 fans furious as leak reveals change to classic MW2 maps - Charlie INTEL
A Modern Warfare 3 leak has revealed that the returning MW2 (2009) maps might be altered, leaving many fans frustrated.
www.charlieintel.com
And every year they change a central aesthetic thing (robots/space/Cold War etc), reskin everything and introduce one or two pointless gimmicks that change nothing. It is bizarrely effective at fooling people every year, who will say “they’re really mixing it up this year” about a game that has had a new coat of paint and they’ve played 12 times before.
Every year people say the games graphics look amazing, then play the campaign and forget it 5 minutes later.
The gameplay has been putting the reticule on the enemies in a shooting gallery while explosions happen in the background for like 15 years. Make sure to walk forward across a trigger point to stop an infinitely respawning stream of enemies spawning, every now and again.
Now I know the multiplayer is the main attraction and that’s very different to the campaigns, which are what I’m talking about. I understand the attraction of the MP even if it isn’t for me these days.
But man, the COD series as single player games is absolutely WASHED and I don’t get it.
5 minutes of Spelunky has infinitely superior gameplay to the last 10 COD campaigns combined.

It's only going to be worse with the higher TTK (gross).

So 3 NEW Maps with Season 1, and 3 NEW Maps for Season 2. The Seasons usually start about a month after release so 16 Remastered classic maps at launch and 3 new maps a month later. That's how I read it al least.
Edit>>>>Found the Intel: Activision says Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Season 01 will have 3 new 6v6 maps, and Season 02 will also have 3 new 6v6 maps There’s 16 core 6v6 maps at launch, 4 Ground War maps at Launch.

Actually yes. But Craptivision knows how dump the gamers are. Add a few shitty skins and voila we have a full price game.

Shit-Weasel Jason Schreier said this about a year ago. Was it true? I don't know.
Who's to say the DLC wasn't going to be $70 anyway because Activision.

The new COD campaigns are horrible. I miss the all out war of the older CODs. Sick of this CIA, special forces crap.

I don’t think that’s all the maps.. I’m sure they will add some new ones

Yeah this really pisses me off. Not only is this not a cheaper priced campaign expansion, it's the death of MW2's multiplayer, as now all their focus will gp to MW3's multiplayer. That is what's such bullshit about this yearly game crap. No COD is allowed the time to improve and reach its potential as devs and players are removed after 1 fucking year.

This is music to my fucking ears. Classic minimap and slightly increased TTK? Map voting?! Amazing.

I went from being so damn hyped and having myself on the verge of pre-ordering the digital vault edition, to now not being excited at all and probably going to ignore this COD and just waiting for Treyarch's next title.
Once the nostalgia goggles came off I guess it all just felt so slimy, paying £70-100 (£100!!!!) for essentially not even a half-baked but a quarter baked attempt of a premium AAA release by just taking advantage of fan's nostalgia and releasing 16 largely untouched MW2 maps that won't ever play anywhere near as well as they did in memory due to the new engine/systems of the new CODs, all whilst getting a campaign that is hyping up these "open combat maps" that essentially feel like that awful spec ops mode where you extracted those code things with loads of enemy ai around a map, everything just feels reused and rehashed in such a lazy and downright predatory fashion.
There's also the unbelievable approach to how they're letting you bring over all your guns and your progression with them to MW3 from MW2 which is going to cause the most unbalanced COD MP in years on launch, where if you haven't played a lot of MW2 you almost feel forced into getting the vault edition of MW3 as the gun vaults will likely be the only way to stay afloat in the opening weeks.
I just can't justify spending £70-100 on a lazy COD game this year when there are so many great games coming in the last few months of the year, especially in my own personal case where I would've had to buy a year of PS Plus to play it, we're talking £150 for a COD game, that is basically DLC, and will be out of date by this time next year, so I would much rather spend that £150 on two new AAA games and save the tenner for a couple pints on a night out.

Amazing?? This is how shit was done back then.
I dont really like increased ttk. average of lets say from 180ms to 260ms ttk just makes shotguns and snipers either op or bad. Getting multiple kills is harder and it just doesnt feel as good to kill.
In terms having time to take cover from shooting, increased ttk doesn't really make much of a difference.

It feels like these games get cooked so fast. I usually get it every year. You can feel them squeezing the money and then it’ll all get recycled. I was hoping they’d do something controversial or something good.

Yep, features that were there already, then removed, and now back (which should have never been gone in the first place)
Thats good, but its gonna take 2 seasons just to get new content. New maps should have been there at launch

Yeah obviously remaking maps in a new engine and everything isn't 'easier' compared to new ones but it's kind of meh as far as the optics go.
Would've much rather had the remade maps from MW2 dripfed myself but it is what it is (why did the MW2 remake not get all of these btw?).

Is there any word on new DMZ content ?
Haven’t seen anything other than a new warzone around the 10th of dec

No we don’t know if anything about DMZ hopefully they focus more on the new zombies mode this year

Yeah, I play more DMZ than multiplayer these days. It would be a shame if they got rid of it. I don't think we'll find anything out until COD Next on October 5th.
