• The final kill is the kill at the end of an MP game.

• Uses the Cod HQ as its bass of games so here is where you select each of the game modes and come back to it every time you want to swap.
• Unlock exp tokens and rewards in the campaign.
• The zombie mode is now the open world and like DMZ in that you can go and take on contracts, find valuable loot, zombies are everywhere, areas are split into levels of danger and other random players are in the world, Then you just need to extract.
• Hard Hitting soundtrack with improved special effects and noises.
• Quick multiplayer play lets you select the modes you want to play and then join the best game.

Modern Warfare 3 Review Cons:

• Had a lot of boot-up issues on launch day with booting up loops and no way to play.
• Uses all the maps of the old games in multiplayer with very little in the way of new.
• The campaign involves booting up a different game in essence and it takes a while even on SSD.
• The zombies mode doesn’t have a good or even helpful intro/tutorial to it.
• For me Zombies is fantastic but it is just a DMZ mode with zombies instead of AI enemies.
• Does not play well with Steam big picture mode especially if you plan on jumping between modes such as campaign and multiplayer.
• Shaders pre-loading means long load times and constant restarting, sometimes the game won’t even tell you this information.
• At present the multiplayer playlists are boring and typical.
• Only skins from the last game carry over.
• I have moments where I will constantly get dropped into games that are just about to end.
• Bad spawn points are a huge thing, some maps have gone because of it but it’s still pretty bad.
• Still getting it where my battle pass points don’t show until I reboot.
