Modern Warfare 3- PC Review


Another big hit from Activision , Call of duty:Modern Warfare 3 continues to sell its copies(Cd's) and fun of playing it is increasing exponentially world wide.
It pretty much starts off with where modern warfare 2 left(Makarov) but wraps up as if this is the end of modern warfare.Though the story is a bit hard to follow,the game is very exciting to play.

Here's one question i wanna ask "can it pull off the same fun as before?".Let's see.....


"...Count me among the minority that's thoroughly disappointed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is, like MW2 and Black Ops before it, a carbon copy of CoD 4." When I finished up MW3's roughly six hour campaign, I dreaded writing this review. As stated above, it's Call of Duty. I've had a number of friends ask me what I think of MW3, and that's my verbatim response: it's Call of Duty.


If you've played any of the games in the uber franchise since Infinity Ward's 2007 masterpiece, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, you've played Modern Warfare 3. It looks the same, it feels the same, it zigs when you expect it to zig, and it zags when you expect it to zag.Forget the hype,ask yourself this: do you want more of the same? If the answer is yes, Modern Warfare 3 should be on your 'Buy' list.


Modern Warfare 3 comes to us by way of an older engine, but still looks great. Sure, it's not among the very best out there nowadays, but it performs well. At any given time the screen appears ready to burst with effects and visual madness. Entire battles are waged before you; buildings burn and crumble while a steady flow of explosions batter your senses. This is Call of Duty, and Modern Warfare 3 collects these moments of boom in abundance, presenting them in all their 60 frames-per-second glory. 


Modern Warfare 3's single player campaign hits many of the same highs and lows as its predecessors. Amazing set pieces serve as backdrops for giant firefights yet again. This is no understatement. Few games retain the crazy roller coaster pace that this does level after level, with brief moments to breathe set between the next eruption of gun play. The shooting feels extremely responsive and well-tuned, and the battlegrounds challenge your awareness at all times. You're always given different situations that mix-up the game play just enough to keep things interesting. The game presents a formidable challenge, as always, on the Hardened and Veteran settings – something that the more hardcore players will want to delve into.


Great visual effects
Just like in modern warfare 1 and 2,you get to ride on various vehicles and it is pretty much fun.And coming to the climatic campaign,the climate perfectly suits the occasion and sometimes serve as camouflage against enemies.And the visual effects the game provides it very good with high detail endorsed still at 60 frames per second to give a better quality with smooth maneuvering of mouse and controls(i mean the game doesn't lag :P)


If single player is good, then Modern Warfare 3's multi player is fantastic.I would say better than its competitor-Battlefield 3. Like the other Call of Duty games before it, this entry pulls you in with its persistent leveling system and frantic combat. All of the sixteen new maps are fun to play and, with a whole new slew of challenges to complete, rewards constantly pop up and keep you hooked with the next little endorphin rush.Call of duty elite tracks all your records where u died and who killed.It basically stores your stats.


But back to my original question: is MW3 -- is more of the same -- still fun? It is. I'm disappointed there's nothing new, and it's nowhere near the experience CoD 4 provided, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it.
Hate on Activision all you like for churning out clones, just remember they're doing it for a reason: it works. And if there is one thing that's slightly different about MW3 that actually adds to that tried-and-true recipe, it's a bigger sense of scale. From New York City to Paris to London to Hamburg(even India-Himachal Pradesh :D), MW3 takes players on a journey to some of the world's most iconic cities, and it shows them off with the most massive -- and impressive -- set pieces the franchise has ever attempted. In particular, raiding a Russian sub in a New York City harbor filled with warships, jets, and helicopters is a sight to behold.


Though the set pieces are fantastically laid out the enemy AI seems a little poor.The enemies feel they are hidden while they are actually out there in the sun to just give us an opportunity to shoot them.Also there are some glitches like you hit an enemy in the leg he dies,while soap even after series of bombardments never dies..:D .Finally weapons.There is no change in the quality in the weapons we use and ammo in the some of the guns run out quickly.


 Even with these flaws, Call of duty modern warfare 3 is a fantastic game to buy and play(though i dint buy :P).The multi player is hands-down best it has ever been, with more features,more modes and many new levels.


My rating would be 9.3...(it deserves it)
