"Combat erupts in a mid-sized Parisian district. Long side streets encourage mid-range combat, with nearby homes and storefronts lending defensive positions for ambush and recovery. Watch out for explosives when navigating the marketplace, and always keep an eye up top for enemies shooting from above."

Resistance, originally named Paris, is a multiplayer and Survival Mode map in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

It takes place in the streets of Paris, France.

Overview

Resistance is a medium sized map featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. The two spawns are on either side of the map, one at the top of a hill, the other near the umbrellas. The map has crowded streets along with many buildings that offer for close quarters combat, and some long lines of sight that favor guns with longer range. Despite this there are only two accessible buildings: a shop and a destroyed house. Decent cover is provided by vehicles scattered around the map, and these are great for players with the Blast Shield perk (increases one's explosive resistance). However, these can also serve as death traps, because they will detonate if one fires on them. Explosive weapons can also destroy the vehicles, killing those who are too close.

Survival Mode

In Survival Mode, Resistance is a Tier 1 map and has the difficulty of Easy. The players start with the Five Seven, two Frag Grenades, two Flash Grenades, a Self Revive, and 250 Body Armor. The hostiles include Bomb Squads, Attack Dogs, Choppers, and Juggernauts. The Claymore Experts spawn in around wave 22.

The Weapons Armory is located on the north side of the map near start, the equipment armory is located in the west near the vehicles, and the Air Support armory is in the area with the fountain.

Chaos Mode

"Attempt to survive relentless attacks from enemies in the streets of Paris."

Trivia

• The umbrellas at the courtyard are indestructible against all air support if the shots land on top of it (as seen in this video). This is true unless the explosions are to the side.
• One of the newspapers says "President plays Spec Ops. Cabinet says Spec Ops good for your health."
• The Eiffel Tower is strangely on water; if one goes into Spectator Mode, Theater Mode or uses a Recon Drone, this can be seen.
  • Also, the tower falls in Iron Lady but is still upright in the map.
• At Call of Duty XP, in Survival Mode, the Air Support armory was not near the fountain, it was closer to the stairs further left of the fountain.
• In Multiplayer if the player goes under the shadowed tunnel located in the north-west side of the map, he is not allowed to prone.
• In Survival Mode either solo or team if player(s) lay in the prone position ontop of the green car they become immune to most enemies including Juggernauts but excluding helis. Note the green car must be completely blown up first in order for this to work.
  • Also, the player could lay prone in the middle of where the supply crates are located. This also is ineffective against helis
