Quote:What happens when a large contingency of a series' creative team packs up, and two additional teams are brought on to round out the production? Apparently, you get a lot of loose lips. Details of Modern Warfare 3, in development across Infinity Ward, Raven Software, and newcomer Sledgehammer Games, have been leaked with an unusual amount of specificity to Kotaku less than a month before its presumed big reveal at E3.

A lot of that specificity is wasted on spoilers which, in addition to being generally unwanted for those of us who haven't played the game, are about a Call of Duty title meaning they follow multiple characters through multiple elaborate setpieces. Oh, and there's shooting. MW3 begins right where MW2 left off: with the US trying to prevent a Russian invasion. Your roles include a "Russian Federal Protective Services agent, SAS Operative, tank gunner, and AC-130 gunner" as well as some old friends from previous MW games and some new characters, notably "Frost" and "Sandman."

About those setpieces! Modern Warfare 3 will reportedly include 15 missions that take place across "a dozen cities around the world including New York, Paris and London." If some of that selection sounds familiar, that's because this fall's Battlefield 3 will find itself in "Paris, Tehran and New York." Awkward.

But it's not just Manhattan, it's also Brooklyn, Mogadishu, and more, if the list of 20 multiplayer maps is to be believed. (It's unclear if these include maps from the inevitable DLC map packs.) Spec Ops is back as well, with the mission-based co-operative offerings from Modern Warfare 2 accompanied by a new "Survival" mode or, as you're more likely to know it by, Horde mode. The goal: You and your pals will defend yourselves from increasingly difficult waves of enemies. There are seven "Mission" maps and five "Survival" maps listed.

Previous Modern Warfare installments were so shrouded in secrecy, nearly up until the time of release, that it's hard to imagine how such a massive, seemingly coordinated leak took place. Oh, and one last detail: the release date! Kotaku's report pins MW3 for November 8, just a week after Uncharted 3 and a few days before Skyrim.

[Update: Infinity Ward's @fourzerotwo just weighed in on the leak, offering, "A lot of hype & a lot of leaked info on #MW3, some still accurate, some not. To avoid spoiling the experience, I'd wait for the real reveal." We wonder how the accurate / not accurate percentages look; regardless, if you want 100% accurate you'll want to hear it straight from the dev. Everyone else, dig in.]


Quote:Just moments ago Activision uploaded a MW3 Teaser trailer to their youtube but for some reason after its upload they privated the video on youtube. In those few moments we did manage to grab it from youtube and reupload it to both our own site and our youtube! The links for both will be in the read more!

While the teaser doesn't give up much information on the game itself it does confirm the box art we posted earlier to be true! Maybe you can figure out the hidden clues embedded in the video, get to finding them!


Quote:The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 news keeps pouring in today, as a second trailer for the game has just been spotted online. If youve already watched the debut trailer, which confirmed that you would be taking on the Russians in downtown New York, the new trailer reveals a new location with a black and green shot of Big Ben; thats right, were headed to jolly old England this winter. The trailer is very similar to the Am3rica trailer from earlier today, but the few lines of dialogue we can hear are packed with clues. From the first exchange in the trailer, we can discern that the city of London is in a state of lockdown, much like New York in the other trailer. In addition, a new line of Russian can be heard at the end of the trailer, which seems to be the second part of a list of instructions. Weve had the audio translated, with the result being, Two: Use everything at your disposal. The trailer gives us a whole new set of questions to ponder over: Can we expect more trailers to come, with further instructions from the Russian voice? Will other countries be revealed as targets in the coming days or weeks? And what does this say about the overarching story for the game? Let us know what you think, and which country you think will be represented in the next trailer.


Quote:The massive leak of Modern Warfare 3 news probably prompted Activision to release the first teasers for the game earlier than expected. Activision has released four new teasers depicting four key locations in the game: The United States, Germany, France, and England. The teasers further the argument that Makarov is alive and well and leading an attack on multiple fronts against the United States and its allies. From the videos it looks like some of the massive leaks that came from Kotaku earlier yesterday are true at least in some respects. The logo which is seen in trailer, now looks to be official. As well as the locations that were mention in the spoiler laden leak. With Activisions back against the wall, and a lot details out in the open about what in all likelihood will be the biggest game of 2011, you can expect a lot more about the title in the coming days.

Here is 4 videos i found on TTG's youtube account.

Here is an article on the New MW3 website.

[Image: 1754d7a7e6.jpg]
Quote:Activision has opened the official Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 website. Theres not much there at the moment aside from the trailers that have already been revealed to world, and some chatter going on across the globe from various social networking sites. Theres an interactive map on the homepage that allows you to see the locations of the points of interest on a global map. There also seems to be some twinkeling hot spots throughout the world, could it represent mini conflicts across the globe? Who knows. Im sure all will be revealed shortly, as Activision is gearing up for a media onslaught for the game. Last night it was revealed that the NBA Playoffs would host the first trailer for the game on the 23rd. Until then, you can head on over to MW3 Official Website and check it out for yourself.

Infinity Ward: Modern Warfare 3 post-launch support to be major focus

[Image: 49e161747f.jpg]
Quote:Modern Warfare 3 will not suffer from its predecessor's lack of post-launch support, Infinity Ward has insisted. Infinity Ward creative strategist Robert Bowling tweeted that constant patches would be a top priority for the developer. "That is a major focus of mine and the entire team since the feedback from Modern Warfare 2," Bowling wrote. Infinity Ward will be looking to improve on the many updates required to aid Modern Warfare 2, which found itself casualty to a plague of post-launch problems. Trophy errors, broken party invitations, the infamous Javelin missile patch, care package glitch and various online exploits all required fixing. As recently as February this year a major patch was pushed live to try and counter player hacks affecting online play. It comes as the studio were lambasted for not fixing multiplayer exploits and hacks quick enough with Modern Warfare 2 after its November 2009 release. Modern Warfare 3 will launch on PS3, 360 and PC on November 8. The first full trailer for the game will air during the NBA Playoffs on Monday night/Tuesday morning.



Modern Warfare 3 Looking to Push the FPS Genre Forward

[Image: 875160eaef.jpg]

Quote:Yesterday Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was revealed to the world, and this years installment will be arriving on schedule this November. Despite losing very important pieces of the successful Call of Duty formula last year, when Infinity Ward heads Vincent Zampella and Jason West were ousted from the company. Upon their departure, Activision commissioned Sledgehammer Games to contribute to one of the biggest games of the year. Working closely with Infinity Ward, the duo is working on what Eric Hirshberg is calling the most epic Call of Duty experience yet. The teams at Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer Games have worked tirelessly to create for the Call of Dutyplayer a scale that is unimaginable with a level of polish and creativity that will push the genre forward. The passion and energy of our developers is reflected in everything about the title. From the innovative gameplay, to the cinematic intensity, to the most advanced multiplayer ever, Modern Warfare 3 will raise the bar for this already incredible franchise. the CEO of publishing at Activision recently commented. The most interesting point that Hirshberg makes in his recent comments is the most advanced multiplayer ever portion. The franchise has definitely continually changed itself since the original Modern Warfare changed the landscape of gaming. The perk based system coupled with customization, was an instant hit. In Modern Warfare 2, the killstreaks added to the experience in a great way, that was well recieved by fans of the franchise. More recently, with Black Ops, the game added a wealth of customization, game modes, and other gameplay tweaks that set it apart from its predecessors. What will Modern Warfare 3 do to set itself apart ?, E3 2011 likely holds these answers.


Battlefield 3 Vs Modern Warfare 3 Gameplay Trailers Compared

[Image: 1410da095c.jpg]

Quote:The publishers behind Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 have made no mistake that they are going to do battle this holiday season. Since Battlefield 3 was revealed to the world months ago, little has been seen or heard from Modern Warfare 3. In case you havent heard, the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 trailer launched this week, and the real line in the sand has now been drawn. Since we had access to both the trailers we decided to cut them up for a side by side comparison. Have a look at the trailer below, and let us know where your loyalties lie this November. I can tell you where I stand, Im getting both. These are two games that are looking fantastic at this point, and with more to come in the next few weeks with E3 around the corner, theyre about to both get extremely hyped considering the amount of money up for grabs.




Modern Warfare 3 to be banned in the UK?

[Image: 42284d87fd.png]

Quote:Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's Reveal Trailer, which shows scenes of terrorism on the London Underground, is reported to have led to calls for the game to be banned, reports the Daily Mail. The Daily Mail is comparing the London Underground scenes to the 7/7 terrorist attacks in London, with those affected unhappy about the likeness found in Activision's guaranteed smash hit. Vivienne Pattison of Mediawatch UK has "concerns" because "these games are hyper-real," adding MW3 "is in incredibly poor taste". This isn't the first time Call of Duty has skirted with controversy. Modern Warfare 2 was heavily criticised by some for its No Russian level, which allowed players to shoot civilians at an airport while taking on the role of a terrorist. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be released worldwide on November 8.



Modern Warfare 3 Dev Says No Lead Platform

[Image: dc703d8b92.jpg]

Quote:Black Ops was a disappointment for some PlayStation 3 gamers when it released last year. There seemed to be a large group of players that just couldnt seem to get the game to work properly, this shouldnt be the case when Modern Warfare 3 releases this November. There was said to be network difficulties, and lag that persisted for months after release. The PC game had its troubles as well, and many attributed this to Treyarch developing for the Xbox 360 and then porting the title to both the PS3 and PC. It makes sense for them to do so, the Xbox 360 version of the game is by far the most popular of the group. Microsoft inked an exclusive deal for downloadable content, and had a game that was full functional from launch. Infinity Wards creative director, Robert Bowling assured earlier that all platforms would be seeing equel amounts of love, being developed side-by-side on all consoles. The only platform that will recieve unique optimizations would be the PC. Bowling also claimed that the game runs at 60fps on all platforms.



Early Estimates Put Modern Warfare 3 Sales Ahead of Battlefield 3


[Image: 511372e8e3.jpg]

Quote:Electronic Arts may be talking a good game when it comes to taking on the Call of Duty franchise this fall, but analysts believe thats about all theyll do. EA has plans to sink an unprecedented amount of advertising into the Battlefield 3 between now and this fall when the game is scheduled to release, in the hopes that gamers will see the light when it comes to their military shooter. Call of Duty has established itself as a mass market game, and this fall it itends to stregthen that mass market appeal by introducing premium online functionalities to sink the hook in even further to its burgeoning base of loyal customers. On the other hand, Battlefield is already generating a ton of buzz within the core gamer community. The work put into the Frostbite 2 engine, shows in each and every trailer weve seen so far. Analysts are predicting that Call of Dutys mass market appeal will once again have this years title the number one seller of the year, and could possibly challenge last years Call of Duty: Black Ops as the best selling game of the franchise. The initiative to move the Battlefield franchise into the sightlines of more than just the core first person shooter fan, could steal some market share away from Activision, but analysts predict that Modern Warfare 3 is likely to outsell the game by a 3-1 margin.



Only scripted destruction for Modern Warfare 3


[Image: 04f6792f94.jpg]

Quote:All those explosions, wrecked buildings and bits of flying rubble in the Modern Warfare 3 trailer? Purely scripted, NowGamer has revealed. At a demonstration of the game that took place earlier this week, the site discovered that there would be no organic destruction featured in the Infinity Ward/Sledgehammer sequel. This goes against recent rumors that suggested the game would be upping its tech to compete with EAs Battlefield 3. As the site puts it: firing bullets at surfaces and throwing grenades merely results in slight texture changes, rather than real-time destruction. Disappointing, but expected we guess. Modern Warfare 3 launches on November 8.



Ex CoD Developers Wont Show New Title at E3


[Image: 739bd1aa02.jpg]

Quote:Respawn Entertainment won't have a game to show at E3. The new studio which is owned by Electronic Arts, and was formed by the former heads of Infinity Ward, doesn't have a new game to show at this year's show. Nearly a year after the twisted events that led to the co-founders departure from Activision, many thought that the newly formed Respawn Entertainment would have something to show at EA's press event. The studio confirmed via the company Twitter account that there would be nothing at the show, though they did note they'll be wandering the show floor.

This article has little to nothing to do with IW or MW3, I just thought i would share.


Modern Warfare 3 Spec-Ops Details

[Image: 33a983ea55.jpg]

Quote:New Modern Warfare 3 details coming out of Game Hunters confirms plenty of new information regarding the spec-ops game mode that were highlighted in recent information leaks. Spec-ops, which first made its appearance in Modern Warfare 2 is returning. However, this time around, the mode has its own ranking, matchmaking, and leaderboard system in place to make it even better than before. Michael Condrey of Sledgehammer Games, said that the new online features will make for an easier entry into the multiplayer world of Modern Warfare 3. Even more interesting than the new features of Spec-Ops, is the Survival Mode. Survival Mode will use multiplayer maps and have gameplay that has been drawing comparisons to Gears of War 2's Horde Mode, Halo's Firefight. Through an in-game currency system, players will build defensive structures like turrets and barricades to fend off waves of enemies. As in the aforementioned titles, survival mode's difficulty will increase with each successful wave of defense. Infinity Ward is looking to make these new modes a much stronger part of the Call of Duty experience than they have been in the past, and with the new functionality behind the modes, they could do just that.



Rumor: Some Modern Warfare 3 Perks and Kill Streaks leaked

[Image: 5a8d3e5b93.jpg]
Quote:In a story broken by The Gaming Vault, a forum user on MMA game website Undisputed Online (go figure) claims to have posted new Modern Warfare 3 perks and kill streaks, leaked by someone from the press at a pre-E3 demo. No confirmation yet as to whether or not this information is legit, but it is possible given that this would not be the games the first leak. After going over the full rundown below, how does this sound to all of you cutthroat, hardcore, first-round draft pick MW players out there?

Perk 1 :
Name: Covert
Feature I: The first feature to the Perk Covert stops the enemy from viewing their killcam when they are killed by you. The main feature also prevents deathmarks from being placed when you kill a member of the enemy team making it hard for hostile forces to pinpoint your location.
Feature II: The second feature to Covert allows you to remain hidden from enemy UAVs. In addition you will no longer render a red name or crosshair when an enemy is close to you.
Feature III: The final feature is as expected, you remain hidden from all enemy killstreak rewards making it easy to venture throughout the map without having any trouble from any killstreak reward owned by a hostile player with the exception of Counter UAVs.
Name: Recon
Feature I: The main feature to the Perk Recon allows you to gain killstreak rewards with one less kill than normally required. This is the traditional feature to Hardline in the last two games.
Feature II: You can now switch your airdrops one time for a chance to get a better reward by double tapping the Square (ps3) or the X (xbox). In addition you can also capture enemy airdrops faster. And finally you can detect when a hostile has booby trapped an airdrop.
Feature III: The final feature is slightly more complicated. Lets say an enemy calls in an airstrike, well on your screen you will see a long red line showing exactly where the airstrike is going to hit, this is also shown on your minimap. The same goes for when an enemy calls in a helicopter, you will be able to see exactly where they called it in to. Overall this Perk is mainly for players who want to benefit with their team and on their own depending on which features they choose to act on.
Name: Specialist
Feature I: The main feature to this Perk allows you to move faster similarly to Lightweight from previous games. Not much else to say about this.
Feature II: The second feature to Specialist allows you to run for a longer duration much like Marathon from previous games. Again, not much else to say on the second feature to Specialist.
Feature III: The third and final feature of Specialist allows you to walk crouched or prone faster.
Name: Scavenger
Feature I: Pretty obviously the main feature to Scavenger allows you to resupply from dead enemies, from this you can resupply rounds and lethal grenades.
Feature II: The second feature to this Perk allows you to resupply tactical grenades and equipment from dead enemies.
Feature III: HAVENT DECIDED.

Perk 2 :
Name: Sleight of Hand
Feature I: The main feature to Sleight of Hand allows you to reload all weapons faster. Not much else to it.
Feature II: The second feature to Sleight of Hand gives you the ability to ADS faster.
Feature III: The final feature to Sleight of Hand allows you to switch weapons faster. Not much else to this Perk.
Name: Reflexes
Feature I: The main feature of Reflexes allows you to use your knife a lot quicker.
Feature II: The second feature to Reflexes grants you less flinch when shot at.
Feature III: The final feature to Reflexes allows you to crouch/prone/stand up a lot quicker.
Name: Sharpshooter
Feature I: The main feature of this Perk doesnt reduce your recoil but it makes it more controllable and more predictable. For example, it will recoil more in the middle and top rather than to the left and right every so often, this Perk doesnt decrease recoil, thats what Grip is for.
Feature II: The second feature to Sharpshooter increases your hip fire accuracy.
Feature III: The final feature to Sharpshooter reduces your idle sway, you can also hold your breath longer if you have a sniper rifle equipped.
Name: Bling
Feature I: Allows you to equip three attachments to your primary weapon (default being 2).
Feature II: The second feature to Bling allows you to equip two attachments on your secondary (default being 1).
Feature III: The final feature to Bling allows you to equip two pieces of equipment.
NOTE: This Perk cannot be combined with a Grenade Launcher, and normally Grenade Launchers take up two attachments.
Name: Weapon Master
Feature I: The first feature to Weapon Master replaces your secondary with another primary weapon.
Feature II: The second feature allows you to drop no weapon on death.
Feature III: The third and final feature allows you to equip a pistol of your choice along side.

Perk 3 :
Name: Bandoiler
Feature I: This Perk is pretty much the pro to Scavenger along with some extra helpful features. The main feature to this Perk allows you to spawn with full ammunition at the start of matches and every time you respawn. Very helpful when it comes to big games, combined with Scavenger this feature makes it dominant.
Feature II: The second feature to this Perk allows you to have up to two lethal grenade slots and three tactical grenade slots. You also spawn with the extra grenades.
Feature III: The third and final feature of this Perk allows you to hold three extra magazines onto your loadout. So if your gun usually holds 200 bullets and each mag was 30 bullets you would end up with 290 bullets, if you combine this with Scavenger it will be dominant over one man army and teamplay operations.
Name: Tactician
Feature I: Allows you to take no falling damage.
Feature II: You can throw grenades quicker and farther.
Feature III: The final feature to Tactician allows you to reset the fuse on grenades when throwing them back.
Name: Infiltrator
Feature I: Your footsteps are silent.
Feature II: Enemy equipment no longer affects you unless its a proximity explosive.
Feature III: Your knifing, defusing, reloading and etc is now silent.
Name: Engineer
Feature I: You can see enemy equipment through walls.
Feature II: You can now booby trap enemy airdrops and you can hack enemy equipment.
Feature III: Finally, you can defuse the bomb quicker in bomb based game modes.
Name: Navigator
Feature I: Enemies who have shown on the radar now last longer before fading, in addition it also shows the direction enemies are facing.
Feature II: You are no longer affected by Counter UAVs.
Feature III: Finally, enemies close to you will get their radar slowly jammed, the closer they get.

Top Hollywood artist joins Respawn Entertainment


[Image: 7748465712.jpg]

Quote:Iain McCraig, a world renowned concept artist, has joined the team at Respawn Entertainment, the start-up dev formed by ex-Infinity Ward bosses. McCraig is known for such high-profile projects as the Star Wars prequels (this is the man behind Darth Maul), as well as work on several games including James Bond titles and The Secret of Monkey Island. Despite all this experience however, he told Develop that this project was the most exhilarating experience Ive ever had in my career. Once Respawn had approached him with their pitch, McCraig simply couldnt turn this offer down, which suggests that the visual design for their unannounced project will be far different to that of the extreme realism of Call of Duty. Just what that project is remains a mystery however.



Modern Warfare 3 Co-op Would Take Away From the Experience


[Image: 4bf77d432f.jpg]

Quote:When Modern Warfare 3 releases this fall it will have many new game modes. One of which, will not be campaign co-op. Robert Bowling recently went on the record to shoot down the rumors that campaign co-op was coming to the game this time around. He told fans of the game that the cooperative play references that were made recently, were in direct relation to the Spec-Ops mode which was detailed recently. @DomGreenlee The single player campaign is designed to be a very cinematic experience, something we feel is lost when a second player joins. May 27, 2011 3:38 pm via webReplyRetweetFavorite @fourzerotwo Robert Bowling Being that Modern Warfare 3's single player is being built to be a cinematic experience you can see how there is some hesitation in adding cooperative play into the mix. It's never been in the Modern Warfare franchise, but World at War (Treyarch) had a co-op mode that was pretty exceptional. It would be a nice bonus to have the option to play through the campaign with a few friends, but hey, it looks like Modern Warfare 3 is going to have a ton of content to keep you busy as it is. Modern Warfare 3 will release this November and has been confirmed for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.



Modern Warfare 3 New Ranking System Teased


[Image: 49d4e5cbb2.jpg]

Quote:Robert Bowling recently announced that Modern Warfare 3 will have a brand new ranking system included in its new Spec-Ops mode. The mode which was briefly hinted on and explained in the announcement of the game is said to be a game changer for Modern Warfare 3. The Spec-Ops mode is said to be a massive undertaking that contains "some of everything, from missions to survival mode using MP locations, SP locations, and more.The mode which is being headed up by Sledgehammer games, more recently was said to have a brand new ranking system, which will allow you to unlock "weapons, gear, killstreaks". When compared to Modern Warfare 2, it looks like the mode is going to be a significant upgrade. Alongside the new ranking system, the spec-ops mode has been reported to have a brand new matchmaking system as well, unlike its predecessor.

Thanks for lemon for the link.... And i already have the video uploaded Rolleyes
DONT MOTHERFUCKING NERF MY 1887s AGAIN
On the plus side, it looks like a new uglier engine +1 for IW
i updated the thread..... what i updated: found 2 videos and a description of the 1st video
http://www.imodernwarfare3.com/

i think they "leaked" those infos on purpose cause they know that people are pissed about the latest cod series and they are scared to lose a lot of players at BF3
No idea why people are only posting the info partially and reuplaoded from other accounts because there are FOUR videos on the mainchannel maintained by Activision.

Including Franc3.


Also the building being destroyed in the G3rmany trailer reminds me of some Hotel in Dubai.

Also someone speaks the language that guy uses at the end?

Also I wouldn't be surprised if this is going to be a WW3 game.
