Fans of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 who were able to play the campaign early through a preorder bonus are expressing their disappointment with a major aspect of the game. The campaign features “Open Combat Missions” where players are placed in a Warzone-like map with objectives, weapon crates, and enemies. However, these missions have been described as small, bland, and lazy by players. Many feel that the game has deviated from its origins and lacks the polish of previous titles.
Some players believe that the lack of competition and the franchise’s established popularity have led to a decline in quality, with elements like these copy-and-paste Warzone missions being included without much thought. The addition of these missions disrupts the flow of the story and the loadout feature feels rushed. The campaign itself is also criticized for its underwhelming conclusion and short length of just three to four hours.
Despite these criticisms, fans are hopeful that the multiplayer mode, which brings back familiar battlegrounds, will provide a more satisfying experience. However, if the game fails to meet expectations, it may result in a loss of interest from players.
