THIS is OG MODERN WARFARE 3...

[@artyom9149]

The specialist bonus was so creative and efficient in MW3. They actually incentives players to go for gunstreak instead of killstreaks

[@thisisanameyoudontlike9226]

Perk Greed in Cold War had me absolutely shidding when i first saw it in MW2019

[@a_stone]

The hilarious thing is in MW2(022), there is legit a setting pointing towards specialist. It could be a remnant from copying stuff over from MW2019 but it's a fucking scam that we didn't get specialist in MW2(022). Highly doubt we'll see it in MW(202)3.

this is literally what cod should have remained. look how minimalistic things were, but also still complex for the competitive scene when it came to mastering certain spawns etc. the close combat and the overall layout of the entire game, in game and in lobbies…. it was actually fun. i quit cod after advanced warfare and played a good bit of cold war, just never been the same since.

Something not often mentioned is the CoD Elite from MW3. It was something really special creating and managing the own clan. There was even an App so you was able to track down all the last games, who shot you etc. and what did your teammates and clan mates. This really pushed the community gaming forward, but sadly lastet just till the release of BO2. Who remembers sending an application letter to a MW3 Clan on Elite 😅?

[@JottaaHD]

KEEP 'EM COMING! Imagine if MWIII released and everyone started uploading this instead, it would be amazing Another thing these older CODs do well which I don't many people don't realize is that you're forced to use an SMG like it is supposed to, in close range, making you make decisions to take or not certain gun fights and traverse the map differently. The main disadvantage of gunsmith in modern CODs is that any weapon can be a laser beam and sure that can be fun for warzone but it doesn't work in multiplayer. I have similar feelings towards tactical sprint, I think it works in warzone, but not in multiplayer. They tried to make the game slower in MWII but fail to realize that tactical sprint is one of the main culprits of the fast gameplay MW19 introduced - so clueless of the games they're making. In older CODs if you want to run faster you switch to a lighter weapon, usually your pistol, advantage: you're faster and can rush, disadvantage: you have a weaker weapon if you're caught - simple and balanced, no need to change it. I don't think modern COD will improve for a while if they don't figure these things out, this is just one aspect of many but oh well, they first have to actually care about 6v6 multiplayer for that.

[@ACE112ACE112]

1:40 there was blast shield to reduce grenade damage and stun/flash duration. Grenades in MW3 did less damage than the grenades in black ops 2

I began playing cod with MW2 in 2009 and will always love it and BO1 immediately after but MW3 was the game I played almost 10 hours a day while beign a college student. Long nights with the boys and beign recently broken up with. MW3 will always be my fucking absolutely favorite cod of all time.

i have always thought mw3 was always underrated. I remember i used to switch between mw3 and bo2 whenever i got bored the other or if i don't feel like playing those 2 i would go back to bo1. Game modes like faceoff and infected always kept me playing mw3. Face off was a game mode that had a 1v1, 2v2 and 3v3 modes for it and forced game chat. Plus the maps was really small to match the reduce team size., loved playing it. Out of all the cod games that had infected mw3 had the best iteration of it. You would literally just go into a couple of public matches of it and you would either be invited or you will invite players into the best match of infected ever. Basically the private match of it you can edit game settings for it to make it extremely fun and sometimes there would be a modded version of it that you can get from someone's vault as long as they save the game settings.
