Many veterans of the game have a love/hate relationship with the perks system introduced in Modern Warfare.

Either way you are probably here to find out exactly what the latest perks are and if they have in fact changed at all in the latest installment that is Modern Warfare 3.

So here is our list of the Modern Warfare 3 Perks.

Modern Warfare 3 Storyline

Posted on October 2, 2011 by admin

Very little has been revealed on the Call of Duty:Modern Warfare 3 story thus far, and much of it unfortunately is only speculation but here is what we do know.

Spoilers Aplenty.

The Modern Warfare 3 story continues right where Modern Warfare 2 left off, with the Russian Federation continuing on it’s plan to invade our home turf – the United States of America. The 2 main protagonists Captain “Soap” MacTavish and Captain John Price are on the run and in tow is our ‘friend’ from the 2nd installation – Nikolai the Russian tell tale.

At this point it is believed that the story will move to a safe-house in India, where you play the role of one of Nikolai’s subjects which is under heavy attack (no surprises there).

Following this mission is a 2-fold task which takes place in the heart of Manhattans financial district. The first task is to eliminate the threat of a terrorist attack on Manhattan from a russian naval fleet located on the Hudson river. This task is then quickly followed by the second which involves the destruction of a Russian jamming tower that is currently preventing a counter attack.

As the story continues it takes us to various European locations where we take on the role of various roles which have various significance in the conclusion of this story, which if the story leaks would have you believe ends with the White House burning.

Whether or not these details are accurate it sure sounds like this time around that Infinity Ward have finally got their story straight.

Note: This page will be updated as new details arise.

Modern Warfare 3 Gameplay Modes

Posted on October 2, 2011 by admin

One of the major draw cards to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 are the compelling and highly addictive array of gameplay modes, and the third installment is set to up the ante.

As to be expected, the singly player campaign returns along with the fan favourites, co-op and multiplayer. But just to whet your appetite, here are some details of the new gameplay modes Infinity Ward has planned come launch day.

Modern Warfare 3 Campaign Mode
The plot as far as we know it will continue right where Modern Warfare 2 ended. There are rumors and suspected leaks around the internet but if recent reports are anything to go by, the latest story will have you doing more of the same – which is certainly a good thing.

Modern Warfare 3 Cooperative Mode
Cooperative mode takes place on all multiplayer maps and is dubbed ‘survival mode’ where you take on wave after wave of enemies. With each attack you conquer the enemies grow in number and difficulty.

Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer Mode
Many key elements have been tweaked to improve the fairness of balance and filter out any previous ‘spamming’ and cheap kill techniques. One of the more welcome improvements will be on the killstreak reward system. The new and improved system will include 3 strike packages – assault, support and specialist. Details are thin at this stage as to what or how these work but they certainly sound promising.

Call of Duty: Elite Mode
The Elite Mode is basically a free or paid multiplayer enhancement which allows players to get more interaction and enjoyment out of the game. It is believed it will include exclusive monthly downloadable content (DLC), real and virtual prizes for regular multiplayer competition, and social networking and game metric analysis.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is set for a release date of November 8 2011, and those who pre-order a copy will be receiving some extra goods to help their personal campaigns and team clans.
