Story and Setting of Modern Warfare 3

Modern Warfare 3 is a direct sequel to Modern Warfare 2 (2022), picking up where we left off in the previous game. In the latest instalment, we will be dealing with Vladimir Makarov as the main antagonist, who even appears in a teaser trailer for Modern Warfare 3. Since the specifics have not been revealed, we’ll have to wait and see whether we get remakes of any iconic moments from the classic Modern Warfare 3 in the reboot. Moreover, in this rebooted timeline, there is no guarantee that the timeline of events will play out exactly like it did in the original Modern Warfare 3.  

Modern Warfare 3 Gameplay Features

Reports have suggested that the multiplayer experience of Modern Warfare 3 (2023) will be much closer to the earlier titles. This is due to two significant returning features: The Red Dots on the minimap and a traditional Perk System. Now, enemies will appear on the minimap whenever they fire their unsuppressed weapon, giving any their position, and Perks won’t have to be earned as you progress through the game.

According to the reports, MW3’s Perks will be categorised by Gear in four slots: Helmet, Vest, Gloves and Boots and whatever gear you use will determine which Perks you can access. If you’re a long-time fan of the Call of Duty franchise, this Perk system will sound similar. 

Other than that, the core health has also been increased to 150, which is more in line with what the older titles had. The movement mechanics have also been tweaked slightly, with slide cancelling returning. That said, it won’t reset Tactical Sprint. You can also cancel reload animations so players can use their remaining bullets to fend off unexpected ambushes. You will also have a longer Tactical Sprint duration in the game, and it’ll recharge even while sprinting.
