Modern Warfare 3 Already Being Played?

While it’s been rumored to have been in development for some time, there’s been no confirmation of its existence. However, there’s a slight chance that’s about to change.

Such things have been faked in Photoshop, (remember those Black Ops images on a multiplayer beta back in the Autumn?) but it's hard to judge at this moment in time. Maybe if we saw more people on the alpha test then maybe it might convince more of us.

RSPproductionz5611d ago

id say mw3 will be better than black ops but the next treyarc game in 2012 will be horrific i imagine

Corepred45611d ago

thats because treyarch suck at making cod games. especially since they take most of their stuff from infinity wards previous games. i would really like to see them make their own game instead of piggybacking.

RSPproductionz5611d ago

yeah true. mw3 will surely be better than black opss so that will sell but i fear for the next game. another aspect of cod is the glitching community. millions of people glitched in private matches on mw2 shotgun jumping and this couldn't be done online so why did treyarch remove this feature? they also but barriers on every roof etc so there was no way of glitching in private games. the fact is glitching kept people that hated mw2 playing.

TheLastGuardian5611d ago

I wouldn't doubt it if people were already playing MW3. I mean, They only have to change a couple things in MW2 and they call it a whole new game.

mikeslemonade5611d ago

^Beat me to it. I mean... you just have to come up with a few new maps and a few perks and that's a new game.

MrAwesome5611d ago

I looked the guy up in psn his friend list was full so I sent a MSG asking him about it in his profile it said he was puerto rican so I included that I also am puerto rican to try to sympathize with him, I am yet to recieve a reply fingers crossed. I think it's fake though.

TheGameFoxJTV5611d ago

Who cares? You'll all buy the next game no matter what. Even if it said "THE NEXT BIG BROKEN P.O.S FROM ACTIVISION" on the front of the box.

MAJ0R5611d ago

wait since the PS3 has been hacked doesn't that mean hackers can run unassigned code tot he PS3? this could be a fake, kinda like they can fake trophies

Millah5610d ago

If you search that guys username on google you'll find that he's a member to several different ps3 hacks sites. And seeing as a jailbroken ps3 can run custom .pkg files that can say you're playing anything you want it to say, I don't think much more needs to be said. Just put two and two together.

nickjkl5610d ago (Edited 5610d ago )

Never again

will i buy

rehashed games

im looking foward to MW3
i know IW learned from MW2
it would be foolish to make the same mistake twice
treyarch just keeps making copy and paste jobs
IW has made great COD games
COD1, COD2, and COD4
im willing to give them a second chance

Gamer_Z5611d ago

Sledgehammer is making the next COD not IW. I don't think IW even exists anymore accept for a couple of staff members that are still there, I wouldn't be surprised if they merged the two devs into one, IW (well what's left of IW) and Tryarch.

xGet_In_There5611d ago

@Gamer

You are correct, IW no longer exists. BUT, check this out.

http://www.1up.com/news/inf...

I believe since Activision owns the rights to COD Respawn will not be able to put COD in the name. But I do believe that the next game they make with EA will blow Black Ops and W@W out of the water. I still play the first MW daily and by far my favorite.

Dee_915611d ago (Edited 5611d ago )

no more IW?
well looks like i wont b playing anymore COD anytime soon

i just want to finish the modern warfare storyline

but if its anything like black ops
its a helll no

Gantrfaxx5611d ago

Even if it is being already played i couldn't care less. Black Ops was the last COD game i will buy in years,i expected some things to change but now i see they probably never will.

DigitalAnalog5611d ago

Just looking at the title makes me cringe.

-End of Line

xAlmostPro5611d ago

i doubt the next game will even be called mw3 lol.. i mean its being made by sledgehammer not IW.. imo anyway.

Knowing activision it could be mw3 though lol, not buying anyways.. just my 2 cents

showtimefolks5611d ago

we will see a new COD game every year in fall till they stop selling

its that simple if you don't like it be like me play other games

solidt125611d ago

am i the only one that realize that they are just milking this franchisee to death. The single player will be worth playing but im tired of Call of Duty online. I ready for something new. Maybe BulletStorm, Killzone 3 and Twisted Metal will do it for me, oh yeah and SOCOM4.

dkgshiz5611d ago

Will probably be CODMW2 with cow boy hats. Right now Treyarch is probably working on Call of Duty Black Ops 33.

Kran5611d ago

It wouldnt be Black Ops 3, since WaW was game 1 and Black Ops was game 2, so most likely their third game will have a seperate subtitle.

theonlylolking5611d ago

COD3 was game 1, W@W was game 2, and black ops is game 3.

TANUKI5611d ago

A wild west COD would be pretty interesting.

SKUD5611d ago

The struggle continues...

GodofSackboy5611d ago

yay /s

please people don't buy this game

BlackHairyTongue5611d ago

I'll buy it if it's good. What can I say, I like playing good games. Sue me!

clarkdef5611d ago

You mean to say you like playing the same game....over, and over, and over, and over.

BlackHairyTongue5608d ago

@clarkdef

It's like sex, I'll do it over and over again if it continues to bring me joy. :)

the_best_player5610d ago

all cod games are just MODS from MW1, thats why graphics are dated and why you don't see big changes. COD games are just lazy edited MW1 bugy games...

Why is this a surpirse? I mean really.

Modern Warfare 3 flooded with cheaters after arrival on Xbox Game Pass

Players are using hacks to gain an advantage in the game, such as aimbots and wall hacks. The first gives a player superhuman aiming abilities, while a wall hack lets you see through walls to gauge where other players are.

Jin_Sakai664d ago (Edited 664d ago )

“These hacks are typically used by PC players, but those playing on PC via Xbox Game Pass are identified as Xbox players in multiplayer lobbies.”

This is pretty dumb to say the least.

Cacabunga664d ago

All about them headshots for Xbox

badz149664d ago

Gotta pump those numbers up

blackblades664d ago

That's a WTF, they suppose to be labeled as pc users even if its on PC game pass. They mess that up big time.

XiNatsuDragnel664d ago

Oh bad this will be entertaining to watch

ZycoFox664d ago

If AI keeps getting better (and it will) it's just a matter of time before there's more sophisticated cheats even for consoles, and they wouldn't even need to be running on it, I have little doubt about that.

lelo2play664d ago

Don't Gamepass online games have anti-cheat systems?
If not, that's pretty dumb. Microsoft need to fix that asap.

Rynxie664d ago (Edited 664d ago )

They won't ever fix this problem, unless they (developers, publishers, Sony and MS) go after the cheat providers directly. You no longer need to hack consoles to use hacks. During the ps360 days, they were going after cheat devices, but it was a cat and mouse game. These cheating methods were around during those days, it's nothing new, but they kept it under control. Since the PS4/Xbox one generation, they stopped going after these cheating devices and it became widespread. Which I find odd, since they started charging for online play (PS4).

StormSnooper664d ago (Edited 664d ago )

Possibly, this is because the companies were going after cheats because the same cheats were being used to pirate the games, whereas today, the companies use online verification to prevent piracy, thus eliminating the need to go after people who cheat only to gain an advantage in the game. As long as the cheater remains below the radar, and does not completely break the game, the companies look the other way as their wallets are not threatened by it. (that is my completely Uneducated opinion on the matter)

pwnmaster3000664d ago

I mean, COD games was always filled with hackers, nothing new. I can’t blame MS on this. Activision had years to try and fix this. Might take MS some time to make some change.

Rude-ro664d ago

It all depends…
Microsoft’s guidance on how to handle gamepass on pc and their love to force crossplay with pc seems like a them issue.
And they own activision, so it is still a them issue.

StormSnooper664d ago

lol well that sucks.

Is there a reason this happened upon arrival on xbox?

Activision Reportedly Sold An AI-Generated Skin In Call Of Duty

The Yokai's Wrath bundle was released despite previous guarantees by Activision that A.I. would not be used for final assets, per the report. Instead, Activision assured developers it was simply for internal concepts. That, of course, was not followed through. For what it's worth, per the PlayStation Store, 2,400 COD Points cost $19.99, meaning players potentially spent real-life money on a skin that was not created by an actual human.

As far as A.I. use goes across Activision, a source told Wired that 2D artists are utilizing A.I. to aid their work. That is a result of mass layoffs, in which many 2D artists were impacted. “A lot of 2D artists were laid off,” the source named Noah said. “Remaining concept artists were then forced to use A.I. to aid in their work.” Mandatory A.I. trainings have been implemented, according to Noah.

I mean, is this even surprising?

just_looken667d ago

It is not ubisoft has a ai tool for crating stories/script's they even talked about npc's having there own ai speech like we see with those skyrim mods.

Ai is the future sadly which sucks in so many way's.

S2Killinit667d ago (Edited 667d ago )

Activision. And MS. They will ruin console gaming forever.

Oh and where the FRIGGIN outrage people? When Sony makes a remaster of a masterpiece single player story driven game, they get roasted. But this, this, goes unnoticed? Then don’t complain that you aren’t getting enough single player story games.

Ea and ubisoft also use ai

ea using ai for development threatening mass layoffs.

ubisoft ai for npc speech

Almost every big boy in the industry is using ai in some sort of way now

Oh and sony? well they are making spyware ai were they can see how long it took you to do X and adjust difficultly.

How is that a response to what I said? Are they also selling AI generated skins?

@S2Killinit

You never mentioned skins in your comment just stated its all microsoft's fault like so many others.

When like i showed they are late to the ball game as every other company is using or plans to use ai in various field.

If you combine everything then its getting closer to hitting a button and poof out comes a game no soul no passion nothing.

Right now its art/3d models/skins/writing/voice work some and coding can all be done via ai.

S2Killinit666d ago (Edited 666d ago )

That was the whole point of my comment, I wrote it in response to the article. Instead of focusing on making exciting games and developing talented developers, they are busy making AI generated skins that people are buying for huge sums of money. Then, some people turn around and shit on Sony when it tries to capitalize on single player classics by making remasters, and the same people then complain that they want more single player games. MS cannabalized the industry because they never thought making games was essential to their business. So, instead of nurturing theor own studios, they let them die, then went and shrunk the industry, hurting interests of every gamer in the world. Anytime there is a bad trend in the industry, MS is at the helm, leading the way. That is what I’m saying.

smashman98666d ago

I'm sorry but do you honestly believe Sony will sit out of A.I. Every executive at every one of these publishers is wetting themselves in delight at the prospect of A.I. You best believe that once we start seeing it spread throughout the industry Sony won't be too far behind. The only people we'll have to blame are the consumers themselves.

S2Killinit666d ago (Edited 666d ago )

No, I don't believe that Sony will not do the same. But, as I mentioned, MS is always the first to embrace such things and create the worst trends. Once they establish that this is the best way to make money, everyone else will follow. (Have to follow if they want to stay competitive)

thesoftware730666d ago

S2, and blackblades:

All from the Horse's mouth below.

"Artificial intelligence (AI) in video games is crucial for Gen Z and Gen Alpha, who seek “personalization across everything,” says PlayStation executive Asad Qizilbash."

“Advancements in AI will create more personalized experiences and meaningful stories for consumers.”

"He emphasized that AI could enable non-player characters to interact with players based on their actions, enhancing the personal connection within the game."

Yeah, Just MS and Activision...smh

S2Killinit666d ago

I’ve already explained myself twice. Quit your false equivalence, same thing the xbox fateful pulled before and after the ABK acquisitions. Which by the way, blew up in your faces real good. Now, doing the same thing when someone brings up MS’s nefarious behavior, defend them to the end, and watch them scorch gaming as they have been. At least rest of us can take consolation in that the smoke will go in your eyes before anyone else’s.

thesoftware730666d ago (Edited 666d ago )

"Quit your false equivalence, same thing the xbox fateful pulled before and after the ABK acquisitions. Which by the way, blew up in your faces real good."

I'm not sure what you are talking about, you seem to have a issue communicating, because we are on a post about using AI to create video games content, and you put that solely at the feet of MS and Activision, when it's being, and will be used industry wide, right from Sony mouth, I would say it's relevant...then you went on to give Sony a spit shine slob down about a masterpiece TLoU when this had absolutely nothing to do with Sony or TLoU, then you attempted to clean up your rambling spit shine with no real backing for a ridiculous comment.

Obviously you meant to post that nonsensical over exaggerated comment. I also don't know what blew up in people faces, I am perfectly fine with the game industry, I don't have time to be internet outraged about nothingness.

Really read your comment and listen to what you said.

"Activision. And MS. They will ruin console gaming forever."

Bro, for real? Really? Seriously? It's that serious? So there is nothing Sony and Nintendo can do against MS and Activision? MS is 3rd place with you even talking about?

If we stay relevant on MTX, then you still sound ridiculous because again, you lay it all at MS and Activision's feet when almost all companies have used some form of MTX, including yup... Sony.

S2Killinit662d ago

I read this comment, it boiled down to “seeiously?”.

My answer: yes seriously. Since you didn’t say anything else, what else can I tell you? Yes MS is seriously ruining gaming. They have been for some time, and working their way to where we are today, and aren’t even done yet. MS are the worst thing to happen to console gaming.

"The Yokai's Wrath bundle was released despite previous guarantees by Activision that A.I. would not be used for final assets, per the report."

We're talking concept art? Because as of right now there's no way to generate a final 3D model with final textures. So the final assets don't use AI. That's not to say that it sucks for 2D artist that it's easier to generate visual ideas and build from them leading to less 2D artists needed (really sucks), but are they say the final concept art was completely AI generated and then 3D artists built from that? And yes, I'll pile on that Activision as a publisher and their developers I have experience with suck and they'll do whatever, ethics be damned.

Thats actually a very useful and informative piece, thank you.

Wow I can just imagine the likes of Activision, EA and Ubi etc having an army of AIs creating overpriced crap and the fanboys just lapping it up. I hope the AIs have a good union.

montebristo666d ago

I understand why people think it’s good idea to Unionize to fight back against such things but it’s not. It’s a bad idea. It’s activisions wet dream to have these pumped out weekly by some AI. Protect your neck!
