Talk:Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3/Archive 1

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 can be launched this week. Text in Portuguese.

I doubt really much that Soap would die, but i won't be surprising if Price or Nikolai die.

Oh yeah I forgot, Soap dies

MW3 is coming out in November 2011, my friend's mom works for Treyarch and Infantry Ward. He says that one level is somewhere that nobody could guess. He also says that one of the multiplayer Killstreaks is going too be a 4 grenades that shoot flames in all directions for about 6 Kills. That's all I know. But, there is also another DLC for Black Ops Zombies coming sometime. He also knows the Black Ops's code; how to crack it. HE IS CRAZY A British Magazine "PSM3" said that the launch of MW3 will be at the middle of April as Black Ops was.

I think and hope it will come in November 2011TristanCODfan 11:53, January 3, 2011 (UTC)

There will no doubt be a MW3 with the end on MW2. Nikolai: Da I know a place...Then credits.SOG 06:23, June 29, 2010 (UTC)SOG

Im guessing that MW3 will be out somewhere during 2011 or 12 because of it taking about 2 years for each MW game to be released - Qw3rty

I think it will come out late 2011, (November). The sledghammer game will probably only be a spin off and not part of the main series. 18:46, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Isn't it wierd that all these games are getting announced? First Black Ops, then COD8 and now MW3. 21:21, April 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * CoD8 and MW2 are the same... -_-

I think it will probably come out in 2012. http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100411212401/callofduty/images/1/17/Skullrodsig.jpg 21:30, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

I think it will NOT be made, as so many people from IW are leaving and joining Respawn Entertainment. 174.59.100.185 20:17, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

IW and Activistion are in a legal battle for the rights to the Modern Warfare franchise, so I don't know when the next Modern Warfare will come out. Conqueror of all Zombies 21:32, April 11, 2010 (UTC) == IW? Treyarch?==

I wonder who will make it because Infinity = probably not Treyarch = they're making Black Ops Sledgehammer = they're making 8. So me = WHO? WHO? WHO?PFC Soap

One, sign your posts with 4 tildes. Second, Infinity Ward would make Modern Warfare 3. They own the right to the Modern Warfare franchise.Dijele 20:58, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Infinity Ward, definately. Treyarch is working on Black Ops still, they'd have no time for MW3. http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100411212401/callofduty/images/1/17/Skullrodsig.jpg 21:30, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yeaaah. i'm sooo excited when MW3 is confirmed. User:JoeRamirez

Yeah I thought that IW was making it but it wont be the same without West and Zempella.PFC Soap

I agree, but I think it should still turn out great, even without West and Zempella. 02:29, April 13, 2010 (UTC)

Moscow?
Dunn said they were going to burn Moscow to the ground in Whiskey Hotel. Maybe they will be going.PFC Soap

Hard to say. With Shepherd dead and all, it's unclear how the Russo-American War will progress (or if it will even continue). Most likely, however, we'll be going after Makarov. We = TF141/U.S. Army Rangers Key of Destiny 14:16, July 16, 2010 (UTC)

I hope they do especially after what happened to D.C. and you know they'll do it. If they don't, then this game will be less awesome. Mobilized 22:56, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Umm.. what about Makarov? I thought he started the war, with Sheperd by his side. But Sheperd was killed. But Makarov is still alive, and that would mean the war is still going on. Please excuse my confusiness XD. There really IS a cow! ~ thereisacow1337

MW3 in MW2
Saw this on YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFls8CHYkhE&playnext_from=TL&videos=hZFUdYFH_rc&feature=sub

ok i may just make myself look really tired due to the fact that i have only had 3 hours of sleep in the last 48 hours but the law suit said that they DELAYED pre-production. it never said that MW3 was in pre-production. there for the best info you can put in this article is that activision is planning MW3. this next thing is just my opinion but i believe that due to the recent loses infinite ward has suffered i dont think MW3 will even make it off the drawing boards. so yeah, go ahead and flame on me now.

sorry i forgot to sign my post^ havoc131

the youtube thing is not mine... havoc131

Will it come out in 2011 (sine IW and Treyarch make a game every two years) I don't know. If it does, please let the campagin be better than it was in MW2, make it more straight forward with more missions and explantions. Don't leve the player with millions of questions, a clifhanger is ok but questions are....meh. I actually wont mind if this game game out in 2012 of 2013, IW, take as much time as you need. Make this game good. 21:57, April 17, 2010 (UTC). Also, I think there in a part of pre-production, brain storming- will this work, does this make sense etc. 21:57, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

Why does everyone flame the MW2 campaign and MW2 in general? I thought it was awesome. Seriously. I think some people might be overanalyzing MW2. Some people have too high of expectations for games. That's what pisses me off about people. It's really good if you think about the gameplay aspect rather than the campaign alone. And the way I see it, IW leaves it up to the players to draw their own conclusions about what certain levels mean and such. It should not always be up to them to explain every little detail to the players who are too incompetent to understand it on their own. Seriously, let IW make the game they want to and stop expecting so damn much. That's seriously selfish and ridiculous. Revelation2168 01:23, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, honestly, I understood MW2 enough to not have any questions. Well, OK, I had maybe one question: WHY did Price launch the missile in "Contingency", and WHY did Ghost, Shepherd, Soap, and all them let him get away with it, because at the beginning of Contingency", we see that Shepherd doesn't like the idea of blowing up the submarine, so why would he be OK with a nuclear missile launch? Key of Destiny 14:19, July 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Price launched the missile to use the resulting EMP, from the detonation, to stop the Russian forces in the East Coast of the United States.

I read that IW and Activition are in a legal battle over the rights for the game, so should we delete this untill it is resolved?  Conqueror of  all Zombies  Ta lk  00:36, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

I would just leave it, IW owns the Modern Warfare series and will probaoly win in any legal transactions. Gen. Ex Ask the Expert! He'll answer!   00:38, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

Just wondering, they'll get the rights and make a great game, but the legal battle is still going on. In other news...Two and a Half Men is a funny show.  Conqueror of  all Zombies  Ta lk  00:40, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

IW does not own the modern warfare title. thats what the whole lawsuit is about, well the second half of the lawsuit. west and zampella (i think i spelled it right) are fighting for the right to the modern warfare franchise. they say that it is rightfully theirs. havoc131

Also wondering, how will this game turn out seeing nearly 30 IW employees leaving IW, most of them for Respawn Entertainment?LITE992 22:47, May 3, 2010 (UTC)

I wouldn't worry about it. Infinity Ward will make Modern Warfare 3 and it will be amazing. I have no doubt in my mind about what they can make and neither should anyone else. LITE992, despite so many IW employees leaving, everyone who worked for IW may reunite to make Modern Warfare 3. We don't know for sure. This is all just speculation. I think we should wait to see how things play out. Just give it time and sooner or later, MW3 will be out and IW will most likely be responsible. Revelation2168 01:15, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

Should we add info about the on-going legal battle to the page? Conqueror of all Zombies 02:03, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, info on the legal battle is needed. IW will make MW3 as far as I am concerned. And if Treyarch makes it, then it will be a heck of a lot less awesome. Treyarch is a million times less awesome then IW. if you get ride of COMMANDO, you suck. and IW should make all games oriented in the future and treyarch should make all games in the past.

Interview with GameSpot
"According to GameSpot in a video news update released on May 8th, 2010, while they have lost important high-staffed employees including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 project director Jason West and assistant Vince Zampella, Infinity Ward will remain open for their next "big project," which people speculate could be Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3."

I'm sure this means that Modern Warfare 3 is for sure going to be produced and by Infinity Ward. 16:20, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Expand the MW3 Data
Someone should add to the MW3 page that the game is still currently being made by infinity ward (refrencing the gamespot article as proof).

MW2 takes place in 2016

Infinity Ward has the licensing rights for Modern Warfare which means they will make it now matter what and there will be 2 stories, The Rangers fighting in Russia and Price, Soap, Nikolai, and Kamorov and his men hunting down Makorov, you will most likely be playing as Ramirez for the Rangers and defiantly Soap for the Task Force, that is all i'm able to say at this point but soon my boss will release more info on the story line. Oh and one my thing, Ghost is not dead

DaBaddestBob

WHAT!? Is this a joke, or.....are you an IW employee? If this is a joke, it ain't funny. Ghost is....was.....AWESOME! They shouldn't have killed him off. If you are an IW employee and thus know all the secrets pertaining to MW3, then bless you for bringing back Ghost! Key of Destiny 14:24, July 16, 2010 (UTC)

Yes i am an IW employee i work for the creative design department which means i design maps, you know how you can find IW emblems all over maps and stuff well make little details such as this and even design full campaign maps but yes, there has been much speculation around Ghost who, personally is my hero, when i tested the game and saw him die i walked over to my friend punched him in the stomach and left the room but yes, he's not dead, but i can't promise he'll be showing up again, you'll just have to wait a little longer

IW employee? Hahahahaha yah right. Who are you trying to trick? 19:26, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

Personally your opinion doesn't mean anything to me, i know what's going to be happening in Modern Warfare 3 and i was willing to share it with all of you fans but it doesn't seem like you have much intress

i'm fairly certain an "infinity ward" employee such as yourself would be on a fan wiki site divulging sensitive information. also, i would expect at LEAST proper SPELLING from such a person. get a life kid, i bet you whore the ACR too. The HypnoToad 15:46, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

Not cool; the ACR is a sweet weapon. it's my favorite simply because it's the signature primary weapon TF141. Key of Destiny 04:41, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

your not impressing anyone with your vulgar language

Ifinity ward is gone so will there still be MW3 will IW still make the modern warfare series or is modern warfare over.Sgt Sprinkles 01:10, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

Where did you hear IW was gone? That is completely absurd, and the Modern Warfare series is not "gone" either like the article says it is in its pre-production stages but i have not been informed on further progress

I think you are a employe of I.W!

I want to know what is all of this talk about Ghost not being dead is I watched him get shot in the head with a .44 magnum? and i do trust that you are an IW employee so keep the info coming if you can. make MW3 good. MOBILIZED
 * He's not an employee; it's just someone accusing him of being one because he knows a lot about what's going on in IW. Darkman 4 04:40, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, Ghost was shot in the chest or neck area. JerryWiffleWaffle 23:04, September 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Time for my 2 cents. A) Ghost was shot in the head twice but he had 2 bullet wounds in his chest when Shadow Company burned him. B) how the heck did this guy get this information? isn't it supposed to be hard to get info this early and this important? Just a thought. Rangerslogosp.pngized 02:55, September 5, 2010 (UTC)

I honestly just want MW3 to resolve all of the problems and questions from MW2. Well that and some epic weapons. Mobilized 15:57, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

Itll be just fine without them. Mobilized 21:35, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

I don't know I hope though. During the "fight" I thought Activision would have realized how retarded they were to get rid of Zampella and West and try to get them back.Sniperteam82308 00:05, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Me too but i guess they all filed their lawsuits and are ready to fight over it in court and just wont back down. I wish they would though, it kinda pointless arguing over that. West and Zampella would probably heavily benefit from MW3 because itll make even more money than if they left. Mobilized 00:25, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Yea and then after everything was over infinty ward lost employees to Respawn Entertainment(west and zampellas new company) which sparked hope again... false hope. ANyway back to MW3 I don't want to be put back in Rameriz's squad and is anyone else getting annoyed by all the speculation on what will happen. It's 2 or more(can't tell how long since they lost employees) years mabey after black ops but come on.Sniperteam82308 01:04, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

I could care less what squad im in as long as im fighting. and theres always going to be speculation. Mobilized 01:23, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

190.100.223.174 21:32, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

Just sent this to IW
My thoughts on what should be included in MW3:

You should start immediately following the events with Price, Soap and Nikolai; Soap is wounded and wanted by the US Armed Forces and the UK Forces.

But for the American campaign it should follow Foley’s squad in DC, there has been a lot of controversy with the President of The United States, some thought he/ she was KIA and others thought POTUS (the President) was RAPTOR (in the mission Wolverines) You should take the minor role (short role like the AC-130 operator in MW1 & Sat1 from ISS) of a US Secret Service Agent in the Presidential State Car with the President, who is going to make a speech to the US about the Russian Invasion, you then hear a shot ring out from a SVG (Russian version of the CIA, MI6, Mossad etc.) sniper who attempts to assassinate the President, I got the idea off the Mission Favela, were you start off in the car and then run through the streets, I liked the start of this because it is unlike any mission, it was like a urban operation, anyway the President should be rushed out of the area by the Secret Service (USSS) for he was wearing a bullet resistant vest (he survives) you then chase down the sniper through buildings with other agents. After this the President should get the Nuclear football out (if the character could control the football this would be great lots of people would like this, it would be like calling in an airstrike/ deploying a predator missile) and the President deploys it on Russian defences (not in Moscow though) You should then change to a undercover CIA officer (like Allan who was killed in the Airport) the CIA officer is sending Intel. To US Forces about the location of the Russian President (for the undercover CIA officer should be in the FSB, like a double agent) and once the intelligence has been sent to US Forces Foley and his squad (and hundreds of Marines, Soldiers, FBI HRT? Invade Moscow, places in Moscow are invaded, like the FSB HQ, SVG HQ, Parliament and Government headquarters and of course the Moscow Kremlin. It could then switch to Price, Soap, and Nikolai who are in London, or Russia, Georgia, somewhere? Looking for Makarov, and then you see Delta Force operators (remember the opening cut scene were shepherd is talking to the NORAD Officer about Makarov starting all of this, well shepherd is dead but many other people like the officer at NORAD he told knew about Makarov and what he did). à Delta Force Operators are also looking for Makarov when they spot Price (Everyone in the Army would have heard of Shepherd being dead, and they would have seen the wanted poster of them) and Price, Nikolai and the injured soap have to evade and maybe open fire on them (Delta is highly trained so make it hard to kill them) The Russians might then invade a very secret place in the US and you have to fend them off with another squad (could be a US Defence facility or Area 51 lol with NO aliens, or Camp David. Also we (the COD community) need to find out about all the High Value Individuals EG: Raptor, the guy in Arcadia who was killed).

Anyway the community would really like to see the Urban campaigns (Moscow invasion, Secret Service would be SO GOOD think about it, it would be like no other Call of Duty, we don’t want it to turn into a Grand Theft Auto so keep it COD style like the Favela mission (with less enemy’s).

So at least one of these ideas would be great. (PS: Black Ops will be jungle operations and desert operations so a change with MW3 would be great).

realease date.

i recently was reading the oficial xbox magazine and it said that the possible realease date of mw3 is november 2011.kacpercod

Not suprising. Also, did it explicitly say IW was making it? Mobilized 23:36, October 2, 2010 (UTC)

well it didnt say who is making it but i think its IW cuase they created all the mw games but you know so many people leaving IW. who knows92.25.61.225 20:16, October 5, 2010 (UTC) kacpercod

I would hope they do. They own/are given the right to produce the MW series. No way West/Zampella can take it away from them. They are waiting for their next big project. That is obviously MW3. And you realize if it aint made by IW, then it wont really be a MW game or atleast have the same plot direction/feel. Mobilized 22:45, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Here how I expect things to be in MW3 - there's this flashback of the events from Loose Ends you get the role of Archer or Toad,the Shadow Company just left with the Pave Low,Archer and Toad run and pull out Ghost and Roach from the fire.Roach is dead,Ghost is still alive but his condition is bad.Toad manages to connect with Worm (who survived "The Gulag" and recovered) and tells him that they survived but need to be retrieved.Worm and some other guys from TF141 come then Archer and Toad tell Worm and the others what happened at "Loose Ends" - Worm tells them about "Endgame" and how Price and Soap survived and killed Shepherd.Then the game goes to 2018 - Soap and Ghost survived and recovered,you assume the role of Ghost,Kamarov (apparently alive) tells Price a place of one of Makarov's most trusted men (somewhere in Georgia).The TF141 go there and find the man,Ghost interrogates him and then kills him because if he tells about them to anyone else this will ruin the mission.The game then goes to the U.S Army Rangers assuming the role of Ramirez going to Kiev after a hard fought battle Kiev is burned to the ground.The Rangers plan on going to Saint-Petersburg and burn it to the ground.The TF141 go and find Anatoly (Makarov's right hand man) and learn Makarov's place,Anatoly is killed by Soap and then sent to Makarov as a word of warning.The Rangers burn down Saint-Petersburg,next stop - Moscow.Makarov hides in Moscow - the TF141 are headed that way too.On their way there the TF141 run into Foley and his squad,Foley says that he thought that they were killed,Price tells him how Shepherd betrayed them and Dunn tells something like "That piece of sh*t needed to die anyway".Price says that they will kill Makarov while the Rangers burn down Moscow.The TF141 invade Makarov's Estate and there's a huge fight there,at the end - Makarov is cornered,tortured and then executed Soap personally.The Rangers destroy and burn down Moscow at the end there's a cutscene of Moscow in flames and showing Imran Zakhaev's Statue and Makarov hanged from there.Back in the US - Ghost,Price,Soap,Foley,Dunn,Ramirez and etc. are war heroes.Price become Marshall Price,Soap becomes General MacTavish,Ghost becomes Captain Riley,Foley becomes Captain Foley,Dunn becomes Lieutenant,Ramirez becomes Sergeant - and that's how the Modern Warfare series end. 21:10, January 19,2011 (GMT+2)-LastManStanding

MW3 is being made by Infinity Ward
So I went on CoD:4 and on the main menu, where it says IW's logo, with a 3 next to it. I'm pretty sure thats a hint towards MW3. Thoughts, people. Or mabey it was its 3rd game, hmmm? Why do you think they have IW4 in MW2? Qw3rty! 22:46, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

it should be coming out because there are questions that should be answered. Does the army rangers ever invade moscow? where are john price and soap hiding? what happens with makarov. what happens during the EMP. these are questions that need to be answered so thats why i think it should be made. possibly 2011. i am hoping it comes out early cause we all need answers to the questions we all have.

what the fuck is every1's problem you all act like this game is your fucking god! you all need to get laid and stop worrying about Modern warfare in general. hell you all play video games like it was freaking a buffet at a queens diner. you all need to stop worrying about this shit. and you mobilized hell you need to get a freaking life how old are you? like 40 and still haven't gotten that pussy!

Not Treyarch?
I thought that a preview for MW3 (if not CoD8) will appear on Spike's Video Game Awards since other future games (coming out in Fall 2011) appeared. So this might mean that Treyarch is not making CoD8 or MW3 because Treyarch made an appearence in the VGA's and they would probably show a preview or make an announcement if they were. If you don't get what I'm trying to say ask someone that can. Killoren13 03:36, December 13, 2010 (UTC)

Ok we got tons of info now about call of duty: modern warfare 3. It has potential already of being one of, or the, most realistic military games EVER! You will take on the role of Private Keeshon Lewis who was thrust into action when the car dealership he works at closes. Instead of just doing levels and shooting the s*** out of people, which i'm not saying I hate, You will also do things like avoid cleaning the mess hall, waiting for the undershirt your mom said she sent you 3 months ago, go to a village to deliver a package, then finding out the order got messed up and having to drive all the way back, etc. Infinity Ward has already announced the 1st DLC, Re-deployment: Germany in which you will copy and file vehicle diagnostic reports, repaint storage units A4-D12, pick up cigarette butts outside of the main office, then repair 3,200 HUMVEES! Already some scenarios have been announced like settling a debate between 2 soldiers about whether they'd rather have sex with jessica biel or shakira, one where you get home sick and walk around in the desert until you feel better, and when you get back to your hometown of clayton,MO then tons of people are asking you things like how many people did you kill, how hot was it, was it like blackhawk down etc. I'll try to keep putting details as I get them but until then this is all i have.

Multiplayer Maps Idea's
What do you guys all think the Multiplayer Maps will be? Here's my Idea.

Overlook=A large map with 4 Sniper Towers. 6/12 players

Havoc=A Large building with a cracked floor. 6/12 Players

Kanlite=A small militia hideout with oil pumps on both sides. 3/6 Players

Last ditch effort= a large sized russain city/headquaters map with lots of building hopping and destroyed buildings 12/12

(A Street named by Makarov) Makarov Street=A medium street which is longer than Nuketown. A Russian Street with an underground tunnel to get to the other side.Matrixpretty 03:13, December 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * We don't know anything about the game.... -- 03:46, January 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's his ideas, not the game Killoren13 05:53, January 1, 2011 (UTC) Sears Takeout=there should be a chicago map where you can go in side a building and and take a elavator to the top end find a barret.Your going through streets and someones on the barret =:(

Possible plot
I think modern warfare 3 should be like this:

In the game, you should play as the Marine force you playled in MW2 with Jackson and all those guys, as well as Shepard's Shadow Company (Shepard will be identified as M.I.A.), with Task Force 141 being minor characters, although I also think you should play as Soap towards the end. Makarov should return, and the First Horseman mentioned in MW1 should make his appearance as the main antoganist. Both the Marines and the Shadow Company will be fighting the Russians (but not together) and the Shadow Company should also be lookin for any Task Force 141 survivors. Towards the end, one of the S.C. troops should realize that Shepard was telling a lie and retaliate by shooting his own troops, but get killed in the process. Also, Soap should sacrifice himself to kill the First Horseman and end the fued between the Americans and the Russians. Playing as the S.C. should be more stealth based and it should also inculed, yes, ZOMBIES! The year should also be 2017 or 2018. Reply if you would like to add and/or change anything above.74.103.243.237 00:47, January 10, 2011 (UTC)

Modern Warfare 3 development teams confirmed

Confirmed
It is confirmed that Sledgehammer games and Infinity Ward are making the campaign and Raven Software is making the multiplayer

MW3 coming this November?
I was on the CODHQ Forums yesterday and there was a thread stating that MW3 would be coming this November. There's even a link to prove it:

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/114/1145264p1.html

In case anyone wants to update the MW3 page based on this information, it's up to them.

Dave55811 16:01, January 22, 2011 (UTC)

hopefully modern warfare 3 will be both a sequel and a prequel

Sledgehammer CoD 8 cancellation and MW3
LA Times reports that Sledgehammer's CoD8 has been canned in favor of MW3, which SG is now teamed with IW to build the campaign while Raven Software works on the multiplayer. -WTRiker 00:34, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

Character's from Modern Warfare 1 should return like Kamarov and MacMillan, it would be cool and we would get to see what became of them both. Also it should the invasion against the Ultranationalists in Russia with Foley, Dunn and Ramirez. And Vladimir Makarov should return this time as the main Antagonist in stead of Secondary Antagonist. Boris Vorshevsky as the leader of the Ultranationalists should get a character apperance. Ghost should return with a wound as the fire that shepard lit on them was only on Roach and not Ghost (if you use Noclip cheat you can see this).

Mw3 for ps3?
Idk if this is right or anything but as i play pc for any games, i herd from someone that mw3 isnt going to be released on PS3, apparently microsoft now own cod or something as IW handed it over to them and Microsoft will still release it for Xbox 360 and Pc but not PS3, idk if this is true but i just herd this from someone. SLAUGHTERER 13:18, February 14, 2011 (UTC)

somehow a rumor stated that modern warfare 3 is a prequel but its still just a rumor.

go to findmakarov for evidence that mw 3 is real


 * It's not evidence. It's speculation.

The site has been confirmed as a hoax for the moment; it's officially been tied to a fan-made project. 20:00, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Agreed; it's fan-made, and while it's pretty impressive, it doesn't prove anything. Key of Destiny 18:25, March 19, 2011 (UTC)

Find Makarov (countdown website)
A picture of the face that gets shown shouild be on the actual page. I have a photo and it cant be edited so this sucks.

will this have COD points or will you have to complte challanges for camo and attachments also will it have rectile customazation like black ops?

I hope it's like MW2 where you earn new attachments by completing challenges. I really hate the points system of Black Ops. Key of Destiny 20:29, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Trailer
There are numerous articles on gaming websites that say MW3 will have its trailer revealed in April as most of you know. Is someone able to incorporate this info into the article? 20:02, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Release Date
The Modern Warfare 3 Release date on this site is Sometime in November, but on IGN game releases it said that it would be released December 31st. I think that that would be awesome having the best game released on New years eve.

Modern Warfare 3 in 3D
I heard rumors about Modern Warfare 3 will be released in 3D just like Black Ops, is this true? Mr.potata 06:57, May 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Considering the current trend of 3D games being released a lot more as of late, it probably will have 3D capabilites. Carbonite 0 07:06, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Leaked release date?
http://www.mcvuk.com/news/44232/Modern-Warfare-3-date-leaked

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-05-09-cod-modern-warfare-3-date-report

This was removed from the article as it may not be true, but Tesco apparently leaked the next Call of Duty's launch date as November 8th, any thoughts? 18:34, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

I removed it because it looked like an unsourced claim on the part of the editor who added it. 18:47, May 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's okay, I'm just trying to see what other people think about it. 20:53, May 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've noticed that since World at War every CoD game has been released on the second Tuesday of November. Which in this case is the 8th. Also, since Word at War's release on Nov 11, 2008, the next Call of Duty title has been released a day earlier the next year:


 * WAW: Nov 11
 * MW2: Nov 10
 * BO: Nov 9
 * MW3 Nov 8?

So that date could be true, or it could be that others have caught on to the pattern  00:03, May 12, 2011 (UTC)

Pics
Do we know that these are fake? Collector1

We can't confirm if the images are legit or not. However, we can't put them on anyway due to the leaked info policy. 16:59, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

Lock
Is it worth locking the article completely to stop leaked info being posted for the moment? 16:59, May 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * Done. Will unlock when the next legit info comes through. 20:56, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

Release date confirmed as 8th November 2011

Massive Modern Warfare 3 leak on Kotaku
ALOT of information has been leaked,concept art mainly and plenty of information

Heres a link to the page

<- MW3 leak

Also a video made by TheGUNNShop talks about the article

Video

I suppose the rumor that Modern Warfare 3 will be a prequel is fake as the current timeline has Makarov on the loose, so if they turn it into a prequel it's like making a burger without the meat inside. So the upcoming game is not a prequel, and will probably include Germany, Enlgand in it because of the trailers, so I think we should put those trailers up as well.

All 3 trailers (minus America, that's already posted)
