MW3 Confirmed Multiplayer facts

[Juganort]

At long last some real details on MW3 Multiplayer! there's so much to take in here its not funny. So far I can see nothing I dont like except now I have to choose between a tactical insertion and a flashbang But I do like that claymores and grenades are in the same category so this should mean less claymores around the place. There's a new game mode called Kill Confirmed where you have to recover the enemies dogtags to claim the kill, if not you lose it. This should encourage short/medium range gun on gun action which should be great.

What really sounds great is that you can also choose a proficiency for your gun like reduced recoil, less sway or better range. Class customisation possibilities will be huge with this extra option.

Anyway everything I've found is listed below, enjoy



It's confirmed that the game will have complete customization of private matches just like in Call of Duty: Black Ops where you could adjust the settings and preferences with the ability to save and share. Rather than the ability to create your own emblem, Modern Warfare 2's player card returns where you'll be able to unlock and use pre-made emblems and titles. The game will launch with 16 maps and there are a total of 28 Killstreak Rewards.

There is at least one new game mode called "Kill Confirmed" where you have to kill an enemy and then collect the dog tag that they leave behind. If you don't collect the dog tag, then the kill can't be confirmed and you won't score any points for your team. The enemy has the ability to reclaim the dog tag, thus preventing you from scoring any points.

Impressions:

The game feels and plays like Modern Warfare 2
Interrupting reloads is still possible
Dropshotting is slower than it used to be
Quickscoping feels to be the same speed as MW2
Gun damage is comparable to MW2
When being shot, the flinch will often lead you into a headshot (if shooting the enemy at the same time)
The maps are big with many paths, but very little environment is climbable
There are still quite a lot of places to hide and/or create choke points despite 402's original statement

There are 80 levels in each Prestige but nothing else is known about the Prestige system at this point.

Another new game type announced along with the 'Kill Confirmed' game type mentioned above is called Team Defender. There's also 6 private match game modes coming with MW3.



"Kill Confirmed is an all new gametype which will see players killing enemies and then having to run over them to pick up a set of dogtags to confirm the kill and score the points for your team. While you are doing this, the enemy team will try to collect the dogtags first to prevent you from confirming the kill.

Team Defender is the other new game mode to be included in Public Playlists straight from launch. In this mode players will grab a flag a la Capture the Flag style and then protect the flag carrier in order to gain points for their team.

In addition to those two new modes, a variety of modes exclusive to Private Matches have been introduced.

Infection sees one player starting out as the Infected and killing the other players until no one is left. When you are killed you join the Infected team to help hunt down the survivors.

Drop Zone sees one team holding a Drop Zone from the other team in order to secure Team Points and Care Packages for their team.

Team Juggernaut sees a Juggernaut join your team and, with his help, you must kill all the enemy team, who also have a Juggernaut. First to reach the score limit wins.

Juggernaut sees you trying to kill the Juggernaut so that you can become the new Juggernaut and then you have to survive against the other players trying to kill you.

Gun Game sees the players in a race to see who can be the first to dominate with every gun.

One in the Chamber sees you gaining Ammo by killing enemy players. The last to be alive wins.

Private Matches have also been enhanced, allowing players to create even more Gametypes than the ones listed above, and then share them with their friends.

In addition to this, players who are subscribed to Call of Duty: Elite will be able to vote on these player created modes and some of these could make it into Public Playlists."
