    MW3 News

    sorry guys idk if i am allowed to do this so you can close this if i can't. This is a direct copy and paste from Blackops247.


    "Here's how we can keep you up to date with all the latest news regarding Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

    It's another year, and you know what that means? The cycle for another Call of Duty begins!

    It's hard to believe that over two years ago we started Modern Warfare 24/7 and maintained it daily before and even after the release of Modern Warfare 2 in November 2009.

    This time last year we were preparing to launch Black Ops 24/7 and announce the Digital Warfare 24/7 network. To think that it all started off as a little spare time fun and has quickly evolved thanks to our committed staff and community.

    Right now we are working on some top secret stuff and have been doing so for awhile, but for now, it's time to go back to where it all started!

    In the past few days there's been a ton of rumors for the next Call of Duty game, Modern Warfare 3. Although it isn't yet officially announced, it looks increasingly likely that the announcement is just around the corner. Because of this, it's probably a good time to start reporting news for it!

    Black Ops 24/7 will remain and we will keep updating it as many times as possible - especially with more map packs likely to arrive - but we'll be using Modern Warfare 24/7 to update you on everything related to the MW franchise.

    So in order to keep up with all the latest Modern Warfare 3 news, head over to Modern Warfare 24/7 » now, bookmark it, make it your homepage, tweet it - do whatever you need to do to keep you and your friends up to date. Just make sure you don't abandon Black Ops 24/7!

    We already have three articles ready for you about a massive leak », a logo and boxart » and a possible announcement date ».

    Stay frosty and see you on the battlefield!"

    now i dont even know if the leaked info is able to fit in this post so imma make another post

    Is the ton of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 details that Kotaku have just leaked legit?

    As you're probably very aware, this has been a busy week for rumors and leaks pertaining to the next saga in the Modern Warfare franchise. With the re-launch (so to speak) of Modern Warfare 24/7 yesterday, we reported a possible announcement date » along with box art and logo images ». But today, we can report even bigger news!

    Kotaku originally reported the box art for Modern Warfare 3 earlier in the week and now they've posted not one », not two », but three » articles full of apparent details and images regarding the game!

    Infinity Ward's Creative Strategist, Robert Bowling, tweeted » this response:

    "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." - Robert Bowling
    Please be aware that this does contain MASSIVE SPOILERS. Although we will try our best to make it clear where Single Player is discussed and where Multiplayer is also talked about, continue reading at your own discretion. If you wish to avoid campaign spoilers but don't mind other bits, we recommend skipping futher down the page. Also note that we will not include every bit of info or every single image, so you might want to head over to Kotaku itself for the full (and spoiler-ish) coverage, including a video of artwork along with voice over recordings.

    Remember that what you read below is leaked details regarding an unannounced game, so take it all with a pinch of salt until anything is actually confirmed.

    Single Player

    Kotaku starts off by mentioning how they've dodged all the spoilers and only talked about stuff that is pretty self-explanatory and doesn't contain any spoilers, but how that would all change right now. They've gathered these details from multiple sources and although they've not seen the game in action their-selves, they've seen dozens of images along with voice over recordings.

    Now here's where all the plot spoilers begin, so you have been warned...

    According to Kotaku, Modern Warfare 3 will begin where the second game finished when the US is under siege by Russian forces, Vladmir Makarov is on the loose, and Captain Josh "Soap" MacTavish and Captain John Price are on the run with Russian informant, Nikolai.

    While on the run, the three characters flee to a safehouse in Dharmasala, India, where they are then attacked by Makarov's men. During this firefight, the player will take control of a loyalist who works for Nikolai and is called Yuri. Due to their location in the safehouse being known, the characters then flee via helicopter.

    Where next? No other than Manhattan, New York City, where Russia is launching an attack on the city through the use of a fleet of ships that are positioned on the Hudson River. After the United States calls in Delta Force, the player will then take control of a Delta Force operative called Frost. Your commander is a guy named Sandman and your goal is to open the area for a counterattack by taking out a jamming tower that lies on top of the New York Stock Exchange.

    While gunning down enemy choppers, Delta Force flies out of New York on a Blackhawk helicopter to the harbor where they will infiltrate and take down a Russian submarine that is believed to be coordinating the attacking. The location for the settings throughout the game is said to be:

    Dharmasala, India
    New York, New York
    A plane transporting the president of Russia
    A town in Sierra Leone
    London, England
    Mogadishu, Somalia
    Hamburg, Germany
    Paris, France
    Prague, Czech Republic
    A castle in the Czech mountains
    Berlin, Germany
    The Kremlin in Moscow, Russia
    Dubai, United Arab Emirates
    Washington. D.C.

    Once the missions based in New York City are completed, the game will then advanced in time half a year, giving players control of an Russian agent who must protect the president of Russia while he flies to signs a peace treaty with the United States. This is a Call of Duty game, so as you'd expect, something goes wrong. Hijackers manage to take control of the plane while they attempt to kidnap the Russian president and his daughter. And although the daughter manages to escape, Makarov gets the launch codes from the president and launches an attack against the United States, preventing a peace treaty.

    You're probably thinking "What the hell happened to Price, Soap and Yuri?" It turns out that they're now in Africa hunting for Makarov. After being told by a South African arms dealer that Makarov is trying to buy a shipment of chemical weapons, they went head to Sierra Leone in an attempt to secure the weapons from African militia.

    It doesn't stop there though! Now we take control of a SAS operative who has to stop the delivery of weapons of mass destruction at a London dockyard. A firefight erupts and the agents are then chased through the London subway. This level concludes with a series of unmarked trucks that explode in front of the house of Parliament, releasing a deadly chemical agent. This isn't a case of one country against another though. Several European cities and military bases are also hit by Russian-backed terrorist attacks, meaning than the death toll rises to the tens of thousands. The ongoing chemical attacks allows the Russian military to strike across the entire continent.

    Deceit. That's what happened with Price and co. when it turns out that the arms dealer who tipped them off about the chemical weapons was lying. They head to Somalia to find and interrogate him, which leads to them discovering that Volk, Makarov's right hand man, is hiding out in Paris.

    So far we can gather that the game features a lot of countries all other the world and that Europe is a prominent continent. This time it's Germany's time to get in on the action as players take control of a U.S. tank gunner in Hamburg. The player has to push back a Russian advance backed by armored divisions. Hamburg appears to be losing in the battle and it's then that the story shifts back to Price and co. You'll regain control of Delta Force operative Frost, who leads an assault on Volk's location in the underground catacombs and is assisted by French special forces. AC-130 lovers will be happy, as it's now that you take to the sky's by supporting Frost's ground movements as a gunner.



    Once Volk has been captured and interrogated, Frost will then learn that Makarov will be attending a meeting in a Prague hotel. Players will then take control of Yuri once again and will work alongside Soap as they both slip into the Russian-controller city and set-up an ambush for Makarov in a church bell tower. However, Makarov becomes aware of the ambush and he then escapes, leaving Soap, Yuri and Price to fight their way out of the city.

    After being led to one of Makarov's headquarters in the Czech mountains by Yuri, the crew then infiltrates and searches the location for clues. They find out that Makarov has the Russian president and is attempting to retrieve the launch codes from him, and also discover that he knows where the president's daughter is located. The player then controls Frost who must find and protect the daughter and then they must escape the war-torn Berlin together. It isn't successful however, as she is captured and flown away. While still controlling Frost, the player then heads to Kremlin where a task force of operatives attack and free the hostages, although Makarov escapes once again.

    After plenty of tense action, firefights and twists and turns in a wide variety of locations that span the globe, the final mission takes place in Dubai. It's here that Yuri, Price and Sandman launch an assault on a hotel that is very heavily guarded. They search for Makarov, find him, and finally kill him after all this time. The game doesn't seem to be over yet however, as Kotaku mention that there appears to be a post-credits level that features the burning of Washington, D. C. Post-credit levels aren't much of a surprise though, as previous Call of Duty's have included them. Call of Duty 4 had the infamous Mile High Club while Black Ops allowed players to take control of influential Government officials who have to fight for their lives in a Zombie-filled Pentagon.

    Multiplayer and Special Ops

    Multiplayer is the highlight of the franchise and an example as to why so many people buy the games and play them for many months and years. According to Kotaku's sources, the game may well have as many as 20 multiplayer maps, but as they note, some of these maps may be scrapped before the retail version hits. They also note that the game will see the return of the Special Ops mode, this time with both mission-based and survival levels. Kotaku have been told that the mission-based levels are similarly designed to the ones in Modern Warfare 2, while the survival levels will have players fighting until they're overcome by increasingly difficult waves of enemies, meaning that this could be their way of rival-ring Treyarch's popular Zombie mode.

    Below is what's believed to be the map titles:

    Multiplayer Maps
    Alpha
    Alps
    Bootleg
    Bravo
    Brooklyn
    Carbon
    Coast
    Dome
    Exchange
    Hardhat
    Interchange
    Lambeth
    Meteora
    Mogadishu
    Paris
    Plaza 2
    Radar
    Seatown
    Underground
    Village
    Spec Ops Modes
    Carbon (Survival)
    Dome (Survival)
    Radar (Survival)
    Seatown (Survival)
    Village (Survival)
    Civilian Rescue (Mission)
    Flood the Market (Mission)
    Invisible Threat (Mission)
    Little Bro's (Mission)
    Out of Africa (Mission)
    No Fly Zone (Mission)
    Wing Man (Mission)
    Please note that this article doesn't necessary represent the views of Digital Warfare 24/7 and it should be taken as a rumor and nothing more unless confirmation is given by an official source.

    With this much content already in the game or planned to be in the game, who can argue that this won't be the best COD of all time! Even though apparently its not called Modern Warfare Anymore? I think there just calling it MW3 I think?
