Dont apologise

This was posted earlier by Fourzerotwo:

Fourzerotwoý: 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


So it looks like MW3 is finally coming and i cant wait it will make Black Ops look like a PS1 game.

Bring it on.....

Look forward to seeing and playing it, I'm concerned it won't live up to the IW made stuff of old but time will tell I suppose.

Well i think Fourzerotwo works for Infinity Ward so if he's commenting on it then it could possibly mean they have an ivolvement?

The issue is that half of IW left after MW2, so quite a few guys who have developed this game as part of MW2 aren't true IW guys. Then of course the actual involvement of IW as a whole on this game has been much smaller, as 3 different developers have worked on it. IW had nothing to do with the online area of the game at all, IIRC.

Still, with 2 years to work on MW2, they should have improved it a fair bit. I recall when MW2 came out, somebody said that MW2 used the COD4 engine, but it had been optimised to work at its absolute limit, and with the next one (MW3) they were going to change to a new engine entirely. Not sure if thats right, but I remember hearing something along those lines.

I doubt it will be a letdown though. Lets hope they pay a bit more attention to in-game security this time round.

Not particularly. I'm probably more interested in seeing what the guys that left IW manage to come up with, although it won't be for a while yet.

Not if they have gone work for EA.
Trying to play a game on a EA server is ridiculous.

Personally I think whatever they do with MW3 has got to be pretty spectacular to even come close to beating Battlefield 3, that is looking like the one to beat for me.. possibly game of the year

Hopefully it's not a massive let down like Black Ops was/is.

2015 developed the iconic Medal of Honour on the PC, they then became Infinity Ward after they fell out with EA and created Call of Duty. IW fall out with Activision and will release the next big thing? there is a pattern.

What happened to all the rumors that MW3 would be a prequel featuring Ghost?

Personally I thought that was a bit rubbish given his story was told in the comic series so there wouldn't be much new material, I also didn't like the fact they didn't carry on the story from MW2. So if this is true (I didn't read the article, just enough to know they think it's a sequel) then I'm in.

I don't like the fact different teams develop the SP and MP areas, I remember what happened to MOH with that.

As long as it better than black ops i don't care.

I keep trying soooo hard to like black ops. I just can't get into it.

I should have known really - I didn't even bother with WaW.

Looking forward to it though.

I hope they fix sniper rifles so they can only be used as sniper rifles.

I hope they keep the tactical nuke....

You have GOT to be kidding right?

What they should keep is from BlOps, no kills from a killstreak reward count towards your killstreak.
