Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer Games, and Raven Software discuss the ALL-NEW Face Off gameplay style and Collection 2 DLC in this behind-the-scenes multiplayer video for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. This mode actually looks really cool, and I can’t wait to try it out. As usual, no release date has been announced yet for PS3, as this will be a limited time Xbox exclusive. Totally new to the franchise, FACE OFF distills all the fun and intensity of multiplayer into a new breed of 1 vs. 1 and 2 vs. 2 close combat. Featuring smaller, super-concentrated multiplayer maps specially designed for FACE OFF to encourage strategy, skill, and teamwork like never before.

Thu, 12 Apr 2012 13:17:21 +0000

New Modern Warfare 3 DLC is now available for Xbox Elite subscribers. The COD MW3 DLC will include two new multiplayer maps, Sanctuary and Foundation. Sanctuary takes place in Greece, and Foundation is based in South Korea. Elite Drop 7: Sanctuary Suspended in the air one thousand feet up, you’ll battle more than altitude in the towering sandstone monasteries of Central Greece. Formed over millions of years, this sanctuary’s natural rock pillars have repelled invading armies and withstood the ravages of time but now they’ll face your deployment. Test your skills-and the ancient monks’ craftsmanship-with your arsenal of SMG’s, assault rifles and shotguns. Just remember: don’t look down. Elite Drop 8: Foundation Journey into the heart of South Korea for a decommissioned concrete factory where the cement flows and bullets fly. After decades of constructing roads and buildings, the towering facility is now a perfectly-constructed combat zone for sniping and run-and-gun rules of engagement. Don’t stand in awe of the towering concrete crusher at the center of the factory unless you want to see your kill ratio meet the same fate.

Details On Modern Warfare 3 DLCs

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 18:39:31 +0000

GameInformer spoke with Robert Bowling this week concerning Modern Warfare 3′s first DLC. Here’s a brief recap of what Bowling said. “What we’re doing this year is, we have an entire season of content starting January 24th and going through September. How this will work is every month, we’ll have content drops. These are the individual drops that are available first for Elite subscribers. They come out first for Elite subscribers, very first on Xbox Live, they start giving feedback on it, and that will help dictate our future design decisions.” In response to the price point for non-Elite subscribers and the availability, “I don’t have a price point on the collection, but the first collection that includes these drops comes out in March.” Bowling gives information on Liberation and Piazza. “Liberation is all about that different type of gameplay. It’s a more wide open map than what you see in the traditional maps in Modern Warfare 3.” “Piazza is very different, and it’s all about that close range, close quarters combat. A lot of tight corridors, but most importantly, it’s all about that verticality.”
