Was Modern Warfare 3 Just DLC? (Final Review)

Multiplayer was amazing. The support was there, the gunplay/ TTK was perfect. The issue lies with the prestige system and the initial lack of new weapons. If you’ve played MW2, everything carried over. That was a huge mistake imo.

If you hear the last story dialogue of MW 2019 which is the Spec Ops briefing, Laswell says that Verdansk was rebuilt by the West and Russia as a joint effort after the Cold War. Makarov hated that about the City so he attacked Verdansk at first out of hate and then later on he decided to frame Farah and her ULF Forces

I’m actually playing the Campaign for the first time rn, and my biggest gripe is the open combat missions. It feels like just Warzone incorporated in the campaign. And that looks like it is being a reoccurring theme in cod today. A lot of ppl call MWZ Warzone Zombies cuz it’s essentially WZ just instead of a PVP BR, you’re going up against AI. Tbh I think that was the problem with DMZ in MW2 As well ( along with going up against AI only to get sniped by a bush camper and he steals all your loot). Idk what Cod is going for, are they trying to ease WZ players into playing other game modes they offer? Or is it vice versa? Either way they gotta stop making the base of their game modes WZ. It’s a huge turn off, if I wanted to play WZ, that’s what I would’ve done. The worst part is it seems that the community is afraid they are going to do the same trend in BO6 w/ Liberty Falls. The Devs need to just understand that WZ isn’t your cash cow. This isn’t the same as Fortnite.

Makarov’s Motivation for his actions is simple to understand. If you replay MW 2019; Gen.Barkov invaded Urzikstan to destroy terrorism, something which Israel is doing.

the only problem i was strugling about is the HQ. if they would separate all those games completely i would be more fine than now

[@GMBoyYT]

This game was a Huge Utter Mess from the start because of poor decisions and money that caused all of this.

After season 1-and of bo6 beta, I just did not play mw3. I tried playing it almost everyday but would quit after a game. After bo6, I initially thought oh yeah that’s why I hate this game. As soon as season 6 started, everything changed. I fell in love with mw3 multiplayer and even started doing the mastery camo grind last week which I’m 10 guns away from. I realized I had most guns max level all ready and just needed to grind just a bit to get that mastery. I also have been in a gaming drought which has made me play more

Yes adn it does matter - as the saying goes "The standard you walk pass is the standard you acept". And just because EA does it worse with the sports games (which is a good example why monopols are a bad idea) doesn't really make it better

I think you made a good point about how wether MWIII is DLC shouldn't be the question but wether if it is worth 70$. I try to think that way more often when buying anything, asking myself: Is this product worth its asking price to me or am I just thinking about buying because it's cheaper than its competitors or other products in general. (e.g. buying a cheap gadget before considering how much I'm going to use it) Personally I'm not going to buy BO6 at launch. I did buy CoD at launch since WWII but Vanguard, MWIII and MWIII all disappointed me and even though I think BO6 will be great I'll just try it at a friend's place who is gonna buy it anyway My own little Review on MWIII: 1. Campaig Story: Didn't like it, just running after Makarov and never catching him, only to have him runaway as an ending Gameplay: I like ego shooters and cod at that, but especially open combat missions felt kinda pointless as campaign missions 2. Zombies Played it twice, ran around the map while my random mates cleared everything without me really getting a lot out of it. It was boring for me, but I never really got into Zombies 3. Multiplayer To me, it felt really fast and that's why I really liked it. I'm probably an average to below average player, so games never get that sweaty

[@Tysonbro259]

I can't believe how they did soap like that

[@christiancervantes4264]

For the last time, they had one job of MWIII of COD Franchise Games, but NOBODY GOT ACCEPTED UNDERSTANDING FOR THE PAST YEARS, NOBODY LISTENING, IT'S EVERYBODY PROBLEM, UNFORGIVABLE!!!!!

[@adzzzzfrmdgreen]

Its sad how they didnt care about mw3 story in post launch seasons and just left us on a messed up cliffhanger its really a jumbled mess the characters have no meaning the missions are unfinished or finished and the plot weakens as the story goes on like its that bad

[@justinnguyen3918]

Verdansk was committed because he was trying to send a message on how weak Russia became after the humiliation they faced after the loss of Barkov

[@ck3plays]

I’m actually going to miss this game. It was great playing remastered maps from MW2 (2009) for the most part. Haven’t played campaign yet. But I feel the movement was great in this game. I just wish it had better matchmaking for pubs, fixed servers and focused on controlling the cheats. Other than that, I mostly play multiplayer and I felt it had pretty good map content from seasons 1-5. Considered we went through MW2 (2022), Vanguard and Cold War, I think this game gets more shit than it deserves.

[@FabTBC]

Isn’t Makarov’s motivation against Urzikstan caused by a longstanding feud / conflict between Russia and Urzikstan? At least that’s what I vaguely recall from the campaign. As it relates to Makarov’s attack on Verdansk, yeah, I have no bloody clue what the point of that was.

[@I--benn--I]

Yes, I'm pretty sure the reasoning he wants to pin the Plane Attack on Urzikstan is because of Barkov's failure in the region.

[@Schregger]

Concord had a lot of issues, issues that really should have been caught at some point during the horrendous 8 year development period.

[@dehuelp83]

I thought after seeing soap shot there would be another mission. Nope, nothing. I felt robbed

[@whiskeypete88]

Campaign I agree was underwhelming but other than that great. The ranked play I wish didn’t ban snipers and combined old mw2 ranked maps into rotation. Like a ranked mw2-3 weapon pool. But that’s just me.

[@crickcrackcricketycrack5501]

The cell shaded maps are an absolute eye sore. Having non cell shaded characters running around is such a mess of visuals it hurts me to look at
