Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Review - Worth Picking Up?

2011-11-14
what's up guys come in here with TLD bring you our full review of call of duty modern warfare 3 for the Xbox 360 which is also available on the ps3 and pc now like in modern warfare 2 the game is divided into three main categories there's the single-player campaign which finishes the storyline of the trilogy SpecOps which consists of cooperative missions as well as a survival mode and of course online multiplayer which everyone is a fan of now the campaign itself is a lot more enjoyable than I had first anticipated and well it doesn't necessarily have the best plot for dialogue it does do a very good job of being what it is an action experienced over the course the campaign players will visit a large number of locales across the world fighting a number of continents including North America Europe and Africa while the game's graphics overall are nothing to be impressed by the campaign does do a good job of having really cinematic action scenes there's just a lot of crap going on everywhere the campaign also she needs a place to focus on trying to be as little like a pure shooter as possible every mission in the game always has some kind of vehicle segment turret moment part where you control something remotely like a missile or a turret on a helicopter there's always something different going on it's not just shooting people with guns on foot the overall difficulty with the campaign isn't that high especially if aim assist active which is a lot more powerful than you used to be allowing players to get head shots from ridiculous distances by just constantly hitting zoom and fire one after another as I said this campaign isn't gonna be winning any awards for its plot or dialogue however it does make a very good effort at being both action intensive and varied as for the spec ops mode it consists of two different base types survival and missions in survival mode players work together to take on hordes of enemies whereas the mission mode is where players get in teams of two to accomplish different tasks most of which are lifted straight out of the campaign such as assaulting an airliner it's fun for those looking for a cooperative experience that's easy to pick up and play but it's definitely a lot more dependant on playing with your friends or other than just online pick up groups like you would multiplayer speaking of multiplayer this is the main reason why most people plan on picking up modern warfare 3 and it's extremely reminiscent of past Call of Duty titles although it does appear like they put a little more effort and trying to balance out the game one of the most significant changes to the killstreak system which is now referred to as point streaks the way it works now is that there's actual multiple types to choose from there is the traditional kill streak that which is now called assault where when you kill several people in a row you get some kind of cool offensive power in addition to this there's the support type which doesn't reset when you die however all the rewards are purely supportive or counter and killstreaks rather than just directly wrecking your opposition there's also the specialist type which works completely different from the others allowing players to unlock additional perks as they keep killing enemies but just like with killstreaks it does reset when you die now this is pretty much the most significant change to model worker threes multiplayer experience there have been the addition of a couple new modes for instance kill confirm which is the same thing as deathmatch it's just that you have to take the extra step of picking up a dog tag off your enemy otherwise the game is basically the same experience as one or two just a lot of little rebalances to both perks and weapons now this ends up being one of the game's problems however is the fact that modern warfare 3 relies so heavily upon modern warfare 2 is formula it's not that it's a bad formula it works and people do enjoy it but it's so similar to it that it's almost like playing the exact same game right down to the graphics and UI being identical while the campaign itself does add something new to experience because it is a new storyline online multiplayer itself feels almost more like a patch job rather than an entirely new game now this isn't necessarily a bad thing if you absolutely loved modern warfare 2 and you want to keep playing the game but it does mean that you're going to be paying a full $60 for something that could have been easily done as a patch or at most a 20 $30 expansion if you're a longtime avantika duty especially the mana worker trilogy then you've already picked this game up or you're planning on soon and you're going to enjoy it however I find it a little hard to rationalize to people that aren't fans of the series already that it's worth picking it's the game right now at full price that being said the game does make for a fun action experience and I would recommend picking it up after it has a couple price drops that's our view of modern warfare 3 if you guys want to be one of the cool kids and aren't raging at me for not giving the game nothing but praise make sure to hit that like button and if you guys have got a chance at make sure to check out our latest two video T thanks for watching you
