Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3: Last News

Hogwarts Legacy is set to top the US video game sales charts for 2023, breaking a long stretch of Call Of Duty titles.According to Mat Piscatella, the executive director & video game industry analyst at Circana, who spoke to IGN, this is a combination of both Hogwarts Legacy selling extremely well throughout the year (along with a boost from a recent Nintendo Switch port) and the fact that Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3‘s sales are behind Modern Warfare 2, despite Modern Warfare 3 being the second best-selling game of 2023.If Hogwarts Legacy stays at the top of the charts, then this year will be the first year since 2009 that the charts haven’t been topped by either a Call Of Duty game or a Rockstar Games title (in 2013, Grand Theft Auto V topped the list, and in 2018 Red Dead Redemption 2 topped the list).NME reviewed Hogwarts Legacy, stating that the game can “only offer a facsimile: a world that, although ostensibly populated, feels lifeless and doesn’t let you have any real impact on it.”“Hogwarts Legacy is fun and manages to get a lot of things right, but it already feels somewhat dated, no doubt a hangover from the six-year development cycle,” the review reads.“It’s a stunning way to experience Hogwarts and the surrounding area and is probably the best representation for fans of the universe, regardless of the medium. Honestly, this is an exceptional piece of fan service and a loving recreation that for performance reasons and dated design, doesn’t quite come together,” it concludes.In other gaming news, a new Assassin’s Creed Mirage update has introduced New Game Plus to the game.

JME, P.Money, Chip and Unknown T have gone head-to-head on Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s latest Grime map – check out the footage below.Released as part of Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s season 3.5 update, the new Grime map sees players deployed to an “abandoned hub on the bank of a derelict London canal”.“The small- to mid-sized urban landscape offers a mix of alleys and thoroughfares paired with tight interior locations, the canal at the bottom providing a stealthy means of crossing to the other side,” reads the official guide.Players are also encouraged to “get down and dirty with mean tricks like dropping a proximity mine in the pub, holding up in the Boat House with a shotgun, and setting up a remote turret in the apartment overlooking the Tower Loop. Whatever it takes to get the job done, do it,” added Activision Blizzard.And to celebrate the release, Activision Blizzard and P45’s Alhan have rounded up a number of British rap and grime legends to explore the map and do battle.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 patch notes detail how the powerful Longbow sniper rifle has been nerfed.In the new update, the Longbow has had its hipfire spread benefit removed and its aim down sight time increased from 390ms to 470ms, a whopping 21 percent increase. These changes appear to have been made to reduce the sniper rifle’s effectiveness at close ranges.

Call Of Duty kicked off a crossover with AMC’s The Walking Dead, as original leading character Rick Grimes joined the game as a playable operator.

NME, Sledgehammer Games‘ creative director Dave Swenson and narrative designer Shelby Carlton have discussed how Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 villain Vladimir Makarov may not be the same iconic character that fans remember from the first Modern Warfare games.Although the Modern Warfare reboot shares a lot in common with the initial trilogy, they tell largely original new stories. This means that although Modern Warfare 3 will see the return of ultranationalist terrorist Vladimir Makarov, he may not be the same exact villain that fans remember.“We’ve reset the story,” Swenson told NME. “All that old canon isn’t applicable to what we’re making.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 PC requirements are incredibly important to check before Sledgehammer Games‘ upcoming shooter launches.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 developers from Sledgehammer Games have spoken to NME about the game’s longer time-to-kill mechanics, along with planned changes to visibility and weapon balance.Last week (October 6), the first beta for Modern Warfare 3 kicked off on PlayStation. As fans got their hands on the upcoming shooter, a few of its features stuck out – one of which was the game’s unusually long time-to-kill (TTK), a measurement that determines how long it takes one player to kill another.While this varies between Call Of Duty games, Modern Warfare 3 has one of the series’ longest to date.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer trailer has shown off the modernised versions of original maps like Rust, High Rise and Terminal in action.The latest trailer for the multiplayer mode of the upcoming game revealed the selection of 16 maps that have been revamped for more modern players. All of these will be available at launch and attempt to marry the nostalgia of the originals with a number of changes to allow for new tactical opportunities.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 may include multiple missions that mimic the structure of “No Russian”, which was one of the most controversial moments in the series.“No Russian” featured in the original Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and involved the player actively participating in an act of terrorism. At the time, Activision employees were split over the content of the mission which saw civilian characters killed in a mass shooting started by Vladimir Makarov and his ultranationalist allies.Something similar to “No Russian” showed up in the reveal trailer for the new Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, thereby tying into the post-credits scene of the previous game too.Now, Eurogamer has reported that the Entertainment Software Ratings Board has registered the game, giving it a “Mature 17+” rating.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will let Modern Warfare 2 players transfer their cosmetic content over to the new game as part of Activision‘s “carry forward” approach.The majority of “weapons and cosmetic content, including Bundles, Operators, and other rewards and unlocks from the game” will be accessible in Modern Warfare 3 even if the player unlocked these items in Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 or Call Of Duty: Warzone.Naturally, there is no “carry back” from Modern Warfare 3 to Modern Warfare 2, however, Activision hopes that players will be happy with the way that “carry forward” gets them into the game as soon as possible.“Expect your available arsenal to combine weapons from both Modern Warfare titles, giving you a massive repository of armaments ready to use on day one!” it said on its official website.Two caveats are that “a small amount of content may be unavailable if gameplay offerings are different” in the next game, and war tracks will not transfer over. “For example, if MW3 doesn’t have the Tactical Amphibious Vehicle, or a specific piece of Tactical or Lethal Equipment in any game modes, any Skins you’ve unlocked for these items in MW2 won’t be in MW3,” explained Activision.The most recent trailer for Modern Warfare 3 revealed Makarov, the notorious villain from the original version of the game, as well as the “No Russian” mission.“No Russian” was subjected to intense criticism due to the fact that the player is forced to participate in a terrorist attack that kills a huge number of civilians in an airport.Modern Warfare 2‘s post-credits scene showed passengers putting together 3D-printed pistols with one of them confirming their readiness to someone named “M”.
