While the game was received more positively than not, Modern Warfare 3\u2018s early access campaign seems to have killed the hype, with initial reactions less than satisfied. So far, some have slammed the devs for \u201c2009 graphics quality\u201d, while others hit out at them for several bugs that are \u201cplaguing\u201d the early access. Not only that, but players are now putting the devs on blast, calling them out for their \u201csheer laziness\u201d. MW3 players slam campaign as \u201csheer laziness\u201d In a November 2 Reddit thread, one MW3 player claimed the open cover missions in the game\u2019s campaign is a cover for the devs\u2019 \u201csheer laziness.\u201d \u201cThese missions are so uninspired and lazy,\u201d they hit out. \u201cIt\u2019s just a snippet of the Warzone map with random objectives to run around press X on. The original MW campaigns were memorable due to their sheer scale and memorable scripted moments.\u201d In their opinion, they claimed the open cover missions were the worst part of MW2\u2019s campaign, and are even worse in this year\u2019s Call of Duty. Furthermore, the player compared missions to that of the original Modern Warfare 3, which campaign they say is one of the most memorable in Call of Duty history. \u201cThe opening missions of the original MWIII literally had WW3 happening and a huge attack on NYC where you were taking back downtown Manhattan and infiltrating submarines in the harbor,\u201d they said. \u201cThe Paris mission on the bridge holding out while the Eiffel Tower collapses is one of the most memorable COD sequences ever. \u201cHere, we just walk around by ourselves in an empty port opening crates to \u201cloot\u201d and then putting trackers on container. The second open combat mission I finished in like 5 minutes sprinting around to 3 objectives.\u201d They added: \u201cIt\u2019s an uninspired and lazy mess and an excuse to forgo creating well-crafted set pieces and any greater sense of scale. They just take a map they made for Warzone, drop some stupid AI in the middle, and send you on fetch quests. Basically solo DMZ masquerading as a campaign.\u201d It certainly isn\u2019t the first wave of complaints we\u2019ve seen for MW3\u2019s campaign, with other players slamming the campaign as \u201cWarzone with cutscenes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CoD MW3 players blast open cover missions as \u201csheer laziness\u201d ActivisionModern Warfare 3 players are putting the devs on blast, slamming the game\u2019s open cover campaign missions as \u201csheer laziness.\u201d Earlier in October, Modern Warfare 3\u2019s beta gave players a glimpse of what\u2019s to come for the next year of Call of Duty.
