Update 7: Killstreaks and perks leaked

Thanks to laimFTWinter

Some perks and killstreaks have been leaked by kotaku.

Find that here: http://kotaku.com/5805959/the-modern-wa ... illstreaks

Anyway,

Team Perks have been introduced, these are perks the whole team will work for.

Team Perks:

Stopping Power: Increased bullet damage. (Confirmed not to be in it)

Blast Shield: Unclear (Most likely like flak jacket.)

Health Regen: Regenerate health over time. (No regen health normaly then?)

Stun Protection: Prevent stunning from flash grenades.

Normal Perks will also make a return:

Perks:

Blind Eye: This makes you immune to computer-controlled and player-controlled killstreaks. The pro version makes your launchers lock on faster and gives you extra bullet damage to vehicles.

Assassin: This makes you immune to UAV, thermal, and heartbeat sensors. The pro version also makes you immune to CUAV, EMP and no longer shows your name in red or the crosshair in red when you're targeted.

Point Guard: Every two assists count as a kill towards your killstreak.

Dead Silence: You make no noise.

Recon: Gives you a special kind of radar to spot enemies, most likely. We're not sure on this one.

Killstreaks:

EMP Grenade: Temporarily takes out all area electronics.

Littlebird: A tiny remote-controlled helicopter. (HC-XD anyone?)

Precision Airstrike: Calls in an airstrike on a targeted area.

Stealth bomber: Calls in a B2 Spirit to carpet bomb along a line designated by the player.

Remote Turret: A remote controlled turret. (whats the name of those rockets i black ops?)

Directional UAV: A UAV that can be directed into areas to scan for enemies.

Remote Mortar: Direct a mortar team using a zoomable camera view of the map to call in strikes.

Airdrop Trap: A booby-trapped airdrop.

Ammo Resupply: An ammo reloading airdrop.

Escort Airdrop: A protected airdrop.

Specialist Strike Package: This one remains a mystery to us. (possible a care package containing only air strikes, helicopters ect.)

The Tactical Nuke will NOT make a return, and MW3 will not have dedicated servers on console, no word on PC yet.

"Modern Warfare 3's rumoured Survival Mode has been confirmed and detailed, via a report in USA Today.

The mode, which comes as part of the new game's updated Spec-Ops suite, has players competing against increasingly difficult waves of enemies (in the Horde/Firefight fashion) across Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer maps.

USA Today teamed up with Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling on a map called Dome, described as a "derelict Cold War-era desert radar command bunker".

"As we dispatched ever-increasing waves of enemies, I discarded my pistol for a shotgun. Rubin passed me some in-game currency and I bought and installed a turret to keep the evildoers at bay, while I watched for attack dogs," it explains.

"After a few waves, the attack dogs became suicide bomber dogs that exploded a few seconds after you shot them. The next wave brought the kamikaze soldiers who exploded similarly."

Modern Warfare 2's near-invincible juggernauts also return for the Spec-Ops mode, the publication says, and this time there will be several different types of them.

"All that stuff really fleshes out Spec Ops and adds in a lot that we know our fans are going to love, some of the most addictive aspects of Multiplayer," Bowling said.

"You definitely have to change up your strategy as the enemy changes up. Obviously how you fight the kamikaze dudes is different from how you fight the normal dudes and how you fight a dog is different from a dude and how you fight juggernauts, they are not only big and armoured, so they will just brute force come at you. But they each have their own way of being taken out effectively."

In Modern Warfare 3, Spec Ops gains its own progressive ranking system, online matchmaking system and leaderboards.

Story:

Modern Warfare 3 opens as Modern Warfare 2 closed: The United States under siege by Russian forces, ultranationalist Vladimir Makarov on the loose, Captain John "Soap" MacTavish and Captain John Price wounded and on the run with the Russian informant known as Nikolai.

Fleeing to a safehouse in Dharmasala, India, the three are attacked by Makarov's men. In this firefight players take on the role of Yuri, a loyalist who works for Nikolai. Their safehouse compromised, the group flee the area in a helicopter.

The game then cuts to Manhattan where Russia is launching an attack on the city from a fleet of ships parked in the Hudson River. (It appears the famous U.S.S. Intrepid may be destroyed.) The U.S. calls in Delta Force to repel the attack. You take on the role of Frost, a Delta Force operative under the command of Sandman. Your goal is to take out a jamming tower on top of the New York Stock Exchange to open the area for a U.S. counterattack.

Following the mission, Delta flies out of the city on a Blackhawk, gunning down enemy choppers as they make their way to the harbor where they have to infiltrate and take down a Russian sub which is coordinating the attack.

As the New York missions wrap up the game jumps forward in time half a year, thrusting players into the role of a Russian agent tasked with protecting the president of Russia as he flies to sign a peace treaty with the U.S. The plane is attacked by hijackers mid-air who attempt to kidnap the president and his daughter. The daughter manages to escape. The president of Russia in hand, Makarov vows to prevent a peace treaty by getting the launch codes out of the president and launching an attack against the U.S.

The game then returns us to Price, Soap and Yuri, now in Africa in a search for Makarov. They meet with a local South African arms dealer who tells them about a shipment of chemical weapons that Makarov is trying to buy. The group make their way to Sierra Leone to secure the weapons from African militia.

Next, players take on the role of an SAS operative who is tasked with stopping a delivery of weapons of mass destruction at a London dockyard. A gun battle ensues, and the agents are chased through the London subway. The mission culminates with a series of unmarked trucks exploding in front of the house of Parliament, releasing a deadly chemical agent.

Several other European cities and military bases are hit by similar terrorist attacks backed by Russia, and the death toll rises to the tens of thousands. The series of chemical attacks opens the door for a Russian military blitz strikes across the continent.

Price discovers that the South African arms dealer who tipped them off about the chemical weapons deceived them and travels to Somalia to find the man and interrogate him. Through the arms dealer, Price discovers that Makarov's right hand man, Volk, is hiding out in Paris.

The game's attention next shifts to Hamburg, Germany where players take on the role of a U.S. tank gunner fighting to push back a Russian advance backed by armored divisions.

As Hamburg falls, the game shifts us back to the story of Price and his crew. Now in Paris, players control Delta Force operative Frost who, with the help of the French special forces, leads an assault on Volk's location in the underground catacombs of the city. Next, players take to the sky supporting Frost's ground movements as a gunner in an AC-130.

After capturing and interrogating Volk, Frost learns that Makarov has a meeting in a Prague hotel. Players control Yuri as he and Soap slip into the Russian-controlled city and set-up an ambush for Makarov in a church bell tower. Makarov somehow catches wind of the trap and escapes. Soap, Yuri and Price then have to fight their way out of the city.

Yuri leads the team to one of Makarov's headquarters in the Czech mountains and the group infiltrates the location, looking for clues. They discover that the ultranationlist has the president and is trying to get the codes out of him. Makarov has also discovered the location of the Russian president's daughter. The group move out to Berlin to try and prevent her kidnapping. Playing as Frost, gamers must find the daughter and protect her, while making their way through war-torn Berlin. The daughter, however, is captured and flown away.

Frost next makes his way to the Kremlin where a task force of operatives attack and free the hostages, but Makarov manages to escape again.

The game's final mission occurs in Dubai, where Yuri, Price and Sandman launch an assault on a heavily guarded hotel, eventually finding Makarov and, yes, finally killing him.

It also appears that the game may also include a post-credits level that features the burning of Washington, D. C.

MW3 is still in alpha at the moment

[Faust]

Looks cool, but I'm still leaning towards BF3.

[Phillips455]

Looks cool, but I'm still leaning towards BF3.

yeah same with me, ill probally get mw3 for christams as it will be my parents that will get it for me >:]

[LiamFTWinter]

Looks sweet, the campaign sounds really fun, the MP on the other hand.

I'll probably buy this over Battlefield 3, just because I want to see how this story ends.

[hungry carr0t]

but this is no longer a cod title right? or is it?

it's a pass for me..

[Phillips455]

but this is no longer a cod title right? or is it?

it's a pass for me..

nope its a cod still as the title, unlike mw2 has the words "Call Of Duty" as the main words with mw3 as the subtitle.

[PeterTarrant]

WOW!

This looks pretty awesome, the map names are very interesting...

[brains] For the great post, but you misspelled official xD

I'll post the rest of the photos here:

Phew!

So yea, they look pretty cool, and you can also see MacTavish in the background there! xD

[Phillips455]

he's target practice xD

[PeterTarrant]

:lol:

[brainz87]

from the first time i played blops i have always said i wouldn't buy another cod game. releasing one every year is a bit much activision is milking it for every penny they can get now and cod is just going to get worse an worse each year imo.i mean how can they improve on it? better graphics its already been said its on the same engine the one from cod4. for them to make a new engine for it and a game in a year they would have to rush it that means the next one wouldn't be very good either. blops was rushed and hardly playable at release and they used the same engine for it.

i do like spec ops tho hopefully they make it 2-4 players but im going to give this one a miss i will rent it tho if i like it i will get it next year when its cheaper

[l-DaNG3R-l]

Yaay. no stupid UMP45 anymore. G36 FTW.

[Daveyjone]

wait, just 3 questions, why are the americans/russians still fighting in america? or is it literally just afte MW2

why are the americans fighting russians in hamburg

why is south africa suddenly being used a lot in stories?

[brains]

washington burns? so i guess mw4 :facepalm:

[framos490]

uh.... can someone tell me why a lot of those guns are re-skinned from mw2? like really.... -_-

[mikeike12]

uh.... can someone tell me why a lot of those guns are re-skinned from mw2? like really....

Well its still pre-alpha so it could change

Also, i was originaly planning on getting on getting BF3 first, but im not so sure now...

[Snuggles]

So what is this new "Survival" mode under Special Ops? is it going to be IW version of zombies or something?

[gordogg24p]

So what is this new "Survival" mode under Special Ops? is it going to be IW version of zombies or something?

Round survival was never Treyarch's idea, so don't try painting that picture.

Anyway, I find the contradictions of this site to be very ridiculous. No leaks for Black Ops were allowed, yet they are for MW3. Are you serious? Consistency is apparently too much to ask.

Answer 1. the first part of the game is set right after you left off in mw2, where you escape with nikolia and price to india, while the russians are still attacking the usa

Answer 2.it appears that the russians are taking oer europe, while they are unable to take britian, which is pushing them back (in one of the levels you play) nd they are trying to get back the russians presidents daughter who escaped from the presidential plane hi-jack.

Answer 33. dun-know, maybe because its , HOT HOT HOT :P

ah well this defeats everyones ideas of america attacking russia, i guess that quote of foley's was just a quote...

also maybe its because south africa is full of drug lords, retired gangsters and half the worlds bad guys seem to have a villa there... [brains]

but seriously this leak is BIG, you know how they could let slip? or are they willing to inform, unlike treyarch? :ugeek:

well this is the story as it is in alpha state, i bet you they'll remove a big bit of this, cut the maps and then readd them as dlc, with spec ops levels also as dlc, which will make it a failure...
