Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has disappointed many reviewers already, but that's no surprise.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 finally releases today (November 10), but unfortunately, there's not as much excitement for this next installment.

Many of the reviews for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 that have already come out aren't the most flattering. Our first impressions of Modern Warfare 3 's campaign were cautiously optimistic, pointing out that the new focus on Open Combat Missions (OCMs) means that there's greater replayability.

Other than this, there have been multiple other reviews that took a more negative stance. GameSpot gave it a five out of 10 rating, while IGN said
that the campaign "feels hastily put together." However, it remains to be
seen just how well Modern Warfare 3 holds up compared to previous titles in this iconic franchise.

Many are pointing towards the development process as a reason why the
campaign has fallen flat to so many. Bloomberg claims that Modern Warfare 3 was made in less than a year and a half, according to a source who could not be identified as they were not authorized to speak publicly. This short schedule allegedly proved to be stressful for the developers.

Bloomberg also stated that some staff at Sledgehammer had to work overtime late into the night or on weekends to finish the project. While an Activision spokesperson denied that Modern Warfare 3 was initially meant to be an expansion, Bloomberg added that Sledgehammer studio head Aaron Halon
suggested there may have been a possibility that developers became confused
on this matter as it's "a new type of direct sequel" to the previous game.

The production is all said and done now, so all that is left is for players
to decide whether this next title holds up. You can purchase Modern Warfare 3 on Xbox Series X , PS5 , PC, PS4 , and Xbox One right now.
