Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 set for GDC reveal?

monkeyd_93 on 25 Feb '11 said:

after black ops, it could also be a game about finding a 'Makarov' that some dude lost? Only time will tell.......

raredevice on 25 Feb '11 said:

Surely people are tiring of this now. It feels like we're being given episodes rather than games they're so frequent.

StonecoldMC on 25 Feb '11 said:

There is obvioulsy going to be a COD or Modern Warfare coming this year, its actually pretty incredible that it hasnt been announced yet !

Black Ops was the first one I didnt buy myself and ill be interested to see which Dev house is working on this one; Treyarch, Infinity Ward, Sledge Hammer?

pmantis on 25 Feb '11 said:

Wow, i'm really, really shocked. Oh let me guess it be out out in early november, have a 5 hour campaign and somehow manage to become the best selling game of 2011.

MattyR95 on 25 Feb '11 said:

I wish they'd give it a rest, just for a year.

WHERESMYMONKEY on 25 Feb '11 said:

The one thing that i'm interested in is whether the two threads will ever converge. Treyarch have to catch up with the MW timeline eventually so why not make it one narrative universe.

I was thinking the exact same thing, but in a different context.

mogel94 on 25 Feb '11 said:

Your all wrong, my sources tell me it's going to be the reveal of Duty Calls 2: Realistic Modern Assault in 4D

Immortal on 25 Feb '11 said:

i wish they'd stop with all the mind game s**t and just say yeah its out, it'll still sell billions no matter what, the game needs a new direction and get rid of the hollywood esque campaign and back to proper war, another world war game be great i think like world at war

You know.. for Activision Call of Duty is a big Cow With Big Titts and illimited milk.. no matter if it's gone rotten people still enjoy the drink

gmcb007 on 25 Feb '11 said:

Oh FFS this means in 4 days that every game site will not STFU about the 2nd coming of Jesus COD

djreplay on 25 Feb '11 said:

I said I wouldn't get another CoD but I'm still upset I never got to kill that bastard in MW2, I'm coming for you Malikov. You better watch your back.

bazgil on 25 Feb '11 said:

Sorry, too excited for Skyrim to care.

Very_Silver_Ownz on 25 Feb '11 said:

BO totally ruined the series for me. treyarch are a awful dev, sorry I'll stick with CoD4 as long as their are people playing that.

Thanks but no thanks!

KK-Headcharge78 on 25 Feb '11 said:

Boo hoo it is terrible that a games company has the nerve to release a title in a series every year

I can understand people hating Black Ops multiplayeron the PS3, it's shambolic, however that's hardly all Treyarchs fault, oh wait, what's that? It is Treyarchs fault and no amount of reality will change that.........

Change the f**king record.

Roll on MW3

ps3deo on 25 Feb '11 said:

I'm so stoke!!! I hope its not a prequel, though I wouldn't be upset cause Ghost is bad ass. Modern Warfare 3 website http://mwarfare3.com says the game is coming out November 11. What you guys think?

I hope we dont get a 5 second tease, and they actually release some information and stuff. I cant wait!! bye bye crappy black ops

KMakawa on 25 Feb '11 said:

Wait, people are still genuinely interested in this?

...the hook really has sunk into some fishes. T_T

Yes, it is terrible. Yes, it is shambolic and it's all treyarch's fault. No, i don't want to change the record. No, don't roll on MW3.

Oh, glowing green numbers and Makarov in the address, I wonder what it could mean?
I mean whats the point in this eh? They might as well kerb stomp you into a pavement that someone has written Modern Warfare 3 onto.

TheCrimsonFenix on 25 Feb '11 said:

Yet another CoD release that changes f**k all about the far too basic game mechanic of "shoot eachother in the face, online", and gives what the developers believe to be a worthwhile campaign which in reality is some of the worst writing and s**ttiest gameplay that hasn't evolved at all since any other CoD from years ago. Got to admit, Activision sure know how to spend so little and get so much back in sales. Anyone hoping this next one is going to be up to the (overrated) standards of Modern Warfare are sure praying to the wrong people, as it sure is going to be difficult to see a team of people who have replaced those who made any of the former games, design something to the same standards.But yeah, like I said, even MW was overrated. IW pretty much showed how crap the series was going to be with MW2 being about the most blandest and uninvolving story going.

The websites URL does have some significance though.

F*ck me, CVG, investigative reporting at it's very best!!!

Not very subtle of origonal is it really. I actually burst out laughing when I saw it, honestly. Just like a ripoof movie by Asylum... Look em up, kids.

Did someone call the waaahmbulance? Seriously. I get that a lot of people don't like CoD anymore, but what I don't get is the incessant moaning about it. I'm not a fan of the Fifa games, but I'm not going to get up on my high horse each and every year they release another version. If you don't like it, don't buy it and move on.

newsinthefield on 25 Feb '11 said:

If Activision keep producing Call of Duties at this rate, they'll have a game to release at every gaming event. Truly, Bobby and his boys will be living the dream...at the expense of quality. But who cares about that, right?

This, can be answered...

gogo65uk on 25 Feb '11 said:

Nobody gives a crap (me included) but I reckong 90% of us will still buy it. Even if I think COD4 and MW2 are the worst two FPS games of all time (imho) its just how things are we always get sucked back in. So what can I say bring it on

gmcb007 on 25 Feb '11 said:

PS3 and Xbox fanboys are bad but COD fanboys are worse. Its not the fact that its just the game but the fact they spawn out a new one each year without any originality ,overcharge for very small DLC and for some godforsaken reason still get praised as 'must have games'. Unfortunatly this influences other developers to follow the same trend turning the games industry into hollywood.

Imaduck on 25 Feb '11 said:

This is probably going to, like Black Ops, leave me going "f**king hell, looks even worse than the last 1" then go online and see "WOW I SEED COD MW3 IT R BEST GAEM EVAR"!!2!2!!!11" everywhere, and then see that til release

Very_Silver_Ownz on 25 Feb '11 said:

its no surprise why games are so guff this gen when a run of the mill genre makes so much...isnt one shooter enough ? no you have to buy every single version and dont even give deserving games a chance.

the fps genre has killed this gen.

Imaduck on 26 Feb '11 said:

Hey! Silver, you know better than that!

Don't lump all shooters in with CoD. FPS have not killed this gen, it's still very much alive. CoD (only in it's current sprawling wallpaper form) is damaging things but it won't last. Bioshock, Half-Life 2...... ye FPS are the root of evil, never been a good 1

theblkwhsp on 26 Feb '11 said:

For once CoD is in danger of not making it into my must-buy-this-year list. I love CoD but even as a fan I'm getting weary of the short campaign, massive focus on multiplayer and the final nail in the coffin, map packs costing 25% of the game price.

For Modern Warfare 3 or whatever the hell it'll be called (I'd call it Call of Duty: Ghost Retreval), I'd like to see them explore new avenues such as different paths to take in levels like Deus Ex or elements of RPGs. Maybe build the perks into the campaign so you level up as you play. Anything to mix it up rather than spend two years creating a game that can be completed in one afternoon.

feeg86 on 26 Feb '11 said:

Why bother wasting yours and everyone else's time then following all the people that hate it that much, they end up buying it still.

I get my moneys worth out of CoD, or have done for the last 2 iterations. Got MW2 for 25 quid, sold it in October for 20 quid. Got Black Ops for 27 quid, will no doubt sell it for 20 quid later on in the year.

It's a good laugh with mates. I'll enjoy it when MW3 comes round, as will millions of others.

I'm not blind to the reasons you dislike it, but a few comments hating it, really isn't going to stop them.

The new title is confirmed on blindshotforfps.com:
Cod RIP: The Zombie resurection
This time whole campaign is based around zombie infested USA and you'll be playing as one trying to kill other humans and their leader, the banana republic dictator who's trying to nuke your zombie nation.
Very original,eh?

Yes well said...too many TROLLS commenting all the time a COD game is mentioned in the news aricles.No doubt Battlefield fanboys

This is a really valid point. I'm the same and if I see a thread that mentions Fifa or Pro Evo, I avoid it like the plague because the topic doesn't interest me. I certainly don't post on there to let people know I'm not down with the Rooney (or however kids speak these days).

These people who claim to hate it so much and post to prove their point must be secretly in denial. They must love CoD so much they have to get their fix by talking about it all the tme, even in the negative! I've solved the riddle. CoD haters love CoD more than CoD fans do! (They'll hate that).

SEightman on 27 Feb '11 said:

Seriously, they're going to kill the Call of Duty series by releasing a new game every year. Why don't they at least release it every 2 years and a build a solid bug free game with some DLC's every 6 months or so? By the time it's reached it 20th Call of Duty series, it's going to be Call of Duty: Napoleon Empires 4. Bring on 7th kill steak cannon artillery and one shot gun powder rifles.

By "kill" you must mean they'll sell more copies than the last one and give their fans what they want, like extra content and innovative new perks and weapons? Or maybe you think they should give up the hundreds of millions in profit they'll make this year, and let their competition get a foot in the door, and maybe loose millions more next year too?

But hey, don't let reason and good old common sense get in the way, just you go on following the (cod-hating) heard.

Not sure if this is entirely relevant, but could 'Findmakarov' be something to do with that there compare the market/meerkats advertisement campaign, as I am pretty sure makarov has been mentioned.

just a thought
