Even though we\u2019re still a few months out from the projected release of Modern Warfare 3, leaks have already begun to surface. For instance, it\u2019s pretty much been confirmed that an MW3 reveal event is imminent and that the classic mini-map and Ninja Perk will be returning. But another leak that has caught the eye pertains to the status of Operator Skins, weapons, and bundles. It quickly became public knowledge that all of this gear might be moving over to MW3. Interestingly, the devs responded almost immediately and questioned the player base on this issue. However, while it\u2019s a good thing that players\u2019 purchases will be viable in MW3, they also feel this causes its own problems. MW3 boycott could be enforced by fans Talks of Modern Warfare 3 and its purported plans are not sitting well with MW2 players who think that \u201cthe current one is in such a sorry state.\u201d This sentiment was raised in an MW2 Reddit post discussing the dev\u2019s response to the latest leaks. One user said: \u201cThis is a good thing but imo it shouldn\u2019t be applauded. If everything is going to be seamlessly transfered to the new game it could\u2019ve been just another update for MW2 or a $40 DLC. But we know it\u2019s going to be a $70 game and that the only reason they\u2019re doing this is to trick people into buying it after screwing over the entire community with the broken and contentless mess that is MW2.\u201d Across this post and another Reddit post concerning the subject, CoD fans went all in and explained that they won\u2019t be investing and will boycott MW3 because, as one fan summed up: \u201cThis just confirms they\u2019re charging full price for a patch.\u201d \u201cI got baited into buying Modern Warfare \u201922 because (successor), but I won\u2019t be falling for it again,\u201d explained one fan, another added: \u201cI don\u2019t care because I won\u2019t be wasting money and getting disappointed in the next CoD game,\u201d and one final thought offered this: \u201cI bought MW2019 based on the beta. I would have skipped MWII based on its beta but a few friends wanted me to play with them. Now I won\u2019t touch another CoD with a ten-foot pole if it\u2019s the same crap as MWII. I\u2019m hoping XDefiant is good.\u201d Modern Warfare 3 will be the continuation of the recent reboot series. An MW3 boycott could happen, but we\u2019ll have to see.
