Three months later, Russian President Boris Vorshevsky, flies to take part in peace talks with the United States in Hamburg. Team Metal rescues the Vice President of the United States in Hamburg while NATO scrambles to repel the invasion. This triggers our anti-spambot measures, which are designed to stop automated systems from flooding the site with traffic. Special Ops serves as the perfect springboard to Modern Warfare 3’s re-imagined multiplayer, featuring the series’ trademark visceral gun-on-gun combat, a revamped pointstreak system with the introduction of “Strike Packages,” devastating new modes like “Kill Confirmed” and other gameplay enhancements, new features and a bevy of new weapons, equipment, and perks.These challenge missions feature up to 48 stars, unlike its previous installment, which featured 69. For better or worse, this is a slick and well-metered trio of modes that make an entertaining package, but Sledgehammer Games and Infinity Ward are simply looking to augment previous games rather than expand the series into pastures new. We chose three levels here: Sandtown got the nod as a small level with tight, enclosed corridors (so in theory, renderer-friendly).

It may sound like a simple duplication of modes seen previously in the series, and in almost every other FPS of late, and to be truthful, it is, but it plays well and is just one more reason to keep the disc on your Xbox.

Raven Software developed the multiplayer component, single-player elements, downloadable content, and user interface of the game. As with Black Ops' theater mode, it causes slight lag in matches, and although MW3 is generally better than Black Ops in terms of match latency, this seems to improve it even more. Texture streaming is a point of differentiation between the two console platforms - the Xbox 360 seems to be more adept in getting high quality artwork on-screen. Curiously you are allowed to adjust quality levels of textures in general along with normal and specular map quality (and if you really want a bizarre-looking game you can turn them off too), and there is the ability to ramp up anti-aliasing, though the maximum allowed 4x MSAA seems a bit mean compared to the higher options available in last year's Black Ops where we happily played in fully supported stereoscopic 3D at 1080p with 16x MSAA. However, there are many areas where the engine really starts to show its age: cut-scenes where you dart between buildings in a helicopter demonstrate how flat and low in detail the geometry and textures can be - and in comparison with Battlefield 3, the lighting can be somewhat rudimentary to say the least.At peak times you may see around 500-700 players, but as low as 50-100 depending on location and time of day. On September 3, 2011, another multiplayer trailer was released on YouTube showing off the heads-up display along with various weapons, perks, and killstreaks. PlayStation 3 multiplayer performance put through its paces on small, medium and large maps in the 18-player Groundwar mode. Team Defender: both teams attempt to capture a flag dropped by the first person who is killed when the match starts, the team of the person who holds the flag will get double points for their kills; while the team without the flag only gets the default number per kill. As an example, the first Collection dropped on Xbox 360 on January 24, and on February 28 on the PS3.

There’s more to a game than a name though, and the CoD lineage will surely be tested thanks to ravenous hype surrounding the third MW release, and the many controversial issues that hit Activision, and the now altered Infinity Ward.Microsoft released two limited-edition Modern Warfare 3-themed accessories on October 11, 2011, a wireless controller and a wireless headset. Utilising smoke grenades has traditionally impacted frame-rate - here we see that both versions can drop to around 50FPS.
