Is the CAMPAIGN really that bad ?

[Mihai_89]

OK so i wasn't exactly thrilled when they announced MW3 earlier this year however i did enjoy MW1 and MW2.

I'm seeing a lot of people say the campaign is too short around 3-4 hours but what interests me more if it's any good.

Is it actually good ?

I mean like story-wise, characters etc.

Before I answer, I want to say I'm a New Gen. COD player. The first game I bought with my own money was COD:BO4, but I played games like COD:BO2, COD:WW2, and COD:MW2 (2009), and as previously mentioned, I played COD:BO4. To finish this campaign, it took me about 5 hours of hard work. I really enjoyed the campaign, but it's not worth it. 70 dollars, but I paid 70 dollars for the campaign, the multiplayer, the zombies, and all the future expansions merging the previous releases.I liked what they did, and I enjoyed it. It needs, for sure, more content. I heard that these missions were the ones discarded from MW2 (2022), and the movement was the same as MW2 and not the new one from MW3, and basically in some missions, the same guns appear all over and over again. To be honest i bought it because there is nothing better out there in therms of multiplayer vs like COD (that has new guns and """new maps""" and more playerbase

General consensus is that it's in the top 3 for worst COD campaigns ever. Combine that with the fact that this is the true end of the "Modern Warfare Remake" series. Things are looking REAL bleak for this series right now. Marvel and COD hitting that saturation level despite what sales say. People are truly done. Its time is up. It will go the way of Halo as most have predicted.

having to open cod 2 to open cod 3 campaign already ruined it for me lmao, then if u disconnect internet....my single player campaign game goes black screen

[Gucchi.ΞxΞ]

Its pretty good tbh better than MW2

[V Knives]

No, it's terrible.
So much horrible cheating AI and scripted nonsense in between extremely long and pointless "open combat" missions which are just warzone sections where it's you alone against an entire army. None of it makes sense.
Also they made a cringe replacement for the no russian mission, where you still get a game over if you shoot a civilian even though literally everyone dies anyway.
It's another sterile soulless corporate product.

After all the player feedback, I'm not going to buy this CoD version. Typically I would have, as I've bought all the other CoDs.

But to have to eat up over 200GB of space for a 4-hour game is not worth the time or trouble. Also I don't like how they have basically pushed the single-player campaign, "to the back room of the Casino". I know historically its the multiplayer that has made Activision the most money, so they don't focus on the campaigns as much.

I also threw my hands up after completing last year's MW2 campaign. The baffling crafting elements, which I didn't need to use at all unless mandatory. The excessively long sniper-puzzle missions. MW2's campaign Felt more like Vanguard, which was also a terrible campaign.

Now if they had the campaign as a separate product, and didn't take up 200GB, I might buy it at a lower price point, around $30-$40.

After CoD:Infinity Wars the campaign's for COD all took a decline in quality except for Black Ops:Cold War.

I'll just go back and cycle thru the older CoD campaigns, which were a lot more solidly designed.

Maybe I'll buy again if they do another Black Ops campaign, but will wait for the reviews first before purchasing.

In the US, 200 gig download in a home with several people using wifi is pretty insane. Fast service in our country is already expensive. Add to the fact that there are very strict data caps. You're not only paying 70 dollars for a what many consider a bad game, you have to watch the rest of the month's data usage. 200 gig is almost TWICE THE SIZE OF RDR 2. WTF? For a 3 hour campaign?! GET THE ♥♥♥♥ OUT OF HERE!

Many thanks guys for all the answers !!

I will probably end up buying MW3 anyway since i'm a COD fan but i'll just have to keep my expectations not very high for the game.

Gameplay-wise? Better than MW2022 since there are no stealth missions.
Story-wise? Let's just say Sledgehammer forgot how to tell a complete story after 12 years.

Yes

It wasn't Sledgehammer. It was Infinity Ward.

Better than 2022? I don’t think you’re fully understanding of the fact that special operators are heavily involved and prefer stealth missions rather than shootouts. COD literally tries to tell the story of special operators, but adds running and gunning to please you the player. By not having stealth they’re not being truthful about how “bad war really is” like they tried to be the last few CODs. COD literally says in the 2019-2022 game that this is how gruesome it can be. which was amazing… you’re selling yourself short here…
