Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III

I have played almost every Call of Duty game in the franchise starting from the first Call of Duty and later the United Offensive expansion.

Some have been better than others with regards to story, imagination and implementation, and when Call of duty 4: Modern Warfare was released it was a new experience as they were trying to cater to realism as you learned about Soap and Captain Price from the legendary SAS, and Sgt. Jackson U. S. Marine.

Modern Warfare evolved throughout the next two releases and after remastered versions we eventually saw the reboot of Task Force 141 in 2019.

In this reboot we got an amazing campaign that included the legendary level "Clean House" which is about as real as it gets according to ex. SAS highest ranking soldier Mark "Billy" Billingham and we could only dream what the next instalment would bring?

Modern Warfare 2 was ok but it didn't try to bring the realism that "Clean House" did, and I personally disliked the story with the new Shepard and Phillip Graves, but we got Simon "Ghost" Riley so it was something, but as the campaign progressed it turned more into an arcade game sadly...

Surprisingly Modern Warfare 3 was announced when we expected a DLC to MW2, but if they had put in the time and resources none would be happier than us gamers - but boy were we in for a surprise... In order to save time and money (my opinion) they decided to pick some multiplayer maps, with bots, and throw us players into a all-guns-blazing solo missions that replaced realism and tactics with power-ups and well lit arcade areas that nobody wanted! You could easily finish the whole campaign in under three hours?! If it had been the DLC we expected things wouldn't be so bad, but we had to pay full price for this mess.

Why even bother making a campaign when you're going to put close to zero effort into it compared to the excellent levels in Modern Warfare 2019?!

This is by far the biggest disappointment in the Call of Duty franchise - including Black Ops 3, which led to Black Ops 4 didn't get a single player campaign at all, but Modern Warfare is ALL about the story and the multiplayer was something to do afterwards if you felt like it.

This campaign was such a let down and the only positive thing was that it was so short that I could finish it and still get a refund on Steam!

I hope the negative criticism has some effect otherwise single player campaigns are yet again a dying breed...

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.

This remake is nothing but a lazy crash grab. Around 3 hours story that they didn't even put any work into. Honestly it's sad to see how a company can ruin one of the best gaming franchises. It's way to obvious that this is just a overpriced dlc for MWII.

I hope the gaming community will come together and start showing activision that it's time to but down more effort into the remakes like this. Making annual releases instead of actually giving these games time is destroying these games.

PS: if you actually still enjoy this game then good on you but your help is needed as well to make activision change it's ways.

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.

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.
