This game was so balanced. You could try hard for K/D, play support, or play for gun kills and MOABs with specialist. Almost any AR or SMG was viable. Shotguns ruled (striker pre-nerf was INSANE). Didn’t snipe much because i liked kill confirm which was usually fast paced
The thing about specialist is for me it encouraged me to play at a faster pace...with all those perks you felt like a superhero so why not and no killstreaks to think about to slow you down...sure you might die ocasially but just made it fun to run and gun and not take the game to seriously.
it seriously is underrated, even when this cods mp is better than literally 80% of the games that dropped during cods Golden Era people sleep on it so much.
Huh? MW3 was still in cods prime lol. Most underrated cod IMO is WWII. Bit of a hot take. I could sub Ghosts in there with the benefit of hindsight maybe
I played this game non stop between 2011 and 2016. I quit because the lobbies got too bad. Such a fun game to rush and so much stuff to go for as a content creator.
Best cod ever, we had lethal, support and specialist killstreaks, sleight of hand, QuickDraw, dead silence and pro perks. Most innovative cod ever while simultaneously building upon what works and what the community wants.
This cod has a special place in my heart. Infected on dome with the FMG9 akimbo's, the specialist killstreak, the maps, ... I think the extreem condition dude had the perk to have enough stamina to camp
Cod used to have an arcade feel to it and I could play for hours! When I play BO6, I can only handle a couple games before I am over it. Glad to have them memories because it seems like it will never be like this again. Simplicity is 🔑
Modern Warfare 3 was the first COD game I bought DLC for and I loved how it added monthly new content and how it added A LOT Of new content that all was original content. Only one remake, Terminal, which was free for everyone. It was a more balanced and more fleshed out MW2. Still my most played COD lol.
i have been playing mw3 infected on and off everyday for the last 6 months because its been so much fun to go back and just chill tbh, there are full lobbys everyday, i would recommend for shoe!
I played for nearly 10 hours this weekend on MW3 this weekend. Was at 24 days played but at prestige 18 level 70. Some hacker jackass made me go to prestige 20 level 80 and unlocked everything. I'm somewhat annoyed. Also, Old Jarhead is in my lobbies too. HOW DID I MISS YOU THIS WEEKEND!?
My favorite CoD. Bot Warfare is amazing for this game (and MW2) as the bots aren't on crack like BO1 and Ghosts. I also made a Weapon Patch mod that gets rid of the randomized gun kick values for certain weapons and replaces then with the traditional ones, while bringing miscellaneous changes to other weapons. I’m happy the Plutonium community for supporting my mod, especially for this game and BO1 as they have over 500 downloads…
I have a PC with plutonium and bot warfare installed for all the old cod games, along with all the other mods I like. Someone made a lanlauncher for plutonium, so can launch it and play with 0 internet connection. I have a few backups for everything so should be set for life. When these games are truly dead and buried I’ll still be able to drop MOABs in the year 2050. I will check your mod out thankyou for your service 🫡
I started out on mw3. I still remember when I could barely get like 7 kills a match when I first started lol. by the time I left, I was able to get 40+ kills in tdm almost every single time and don't even get me started on domination. survival mode sharpened me well. definitely my favorite cod.
tdm, infected you can get lobbies pretty consistently. occasional ffa, and rarely a groundwar or dropzone lobby. tdm is best bet for regular game modes. i loved mw3 domination i wish people played it
I remember how cool the magnifiers in this game were, so advanced technology :D. Also the biggest selling point of MW3 over MW2 for me was the variety of guns.
I loved survival in this game. We don't spoke enough about it, but it was so fucking cool. Camping in some covered spots with turrets, grenade launcher, claymore and so on
Mw3 is still my all time favorite Call of duty, mainly because of the support juggernauts built in portable radar. When I had that on I would be glad to come across courner campers because I would see them on my radar and go up to them in my riot shield. That was probably my only time liking people sitting in corners because then they would have to leave knowing I was coming with that thing. Also people I used to play mw3 with called the pp90 the squirms gun. Also the survival mode on mw3 was also very fun. I miss that game a lot, it's reply among my most memorable games. To me they ruined the juggernaut after mw3... to me it's still my all time favorite kill/support streak.
Man I wish I could go back to some of these games to play them. I’m from Australia & on Xbox and over the last few years when I’ve tried, I’ve either not found games or just found cheaters. Also pretty much no one in Aus would be playing so it’s mainly ASIAN & US lobbies so the ping for me is wild Either way, sick video, love seeing these old cods and getting to remember everything about them!
This game had so much bs it was fun. I use to love being a team player and running ballistic vest alongside recon perk and flashing enemies marking them on map lol.
You can also get points towards the MOAB by destroying enemy killstreaks or care package choppers. Having said that... This brings back some memories. My funniest MOAB by far was in drop zone in Terminal. Originally I just decided to be a menace and shoot enemy streaks down with extented mag Blind eye pro lmg and stinger. I got like 11 player kills by solely focusing on that but l shot down so many enemy choppers and killstreaks that l got the MOAB that way. Didnt even know that was possible before that.
For me my top 5 is 1. Black ops 2 2. Black ops 3. MW3 4. World at war 5. Black ops 3 So I Absolutely loved MW3 I much preferred it to MW2 but I found I played much better my K/D was much higher and was a huge infected fan.
MW3 had my favorite kill streak, the SAM turrent, i ran uav, counter, and sam. But the halirious part is the sam turrners will always miss and kill me somehow. I used to be know of the worst luck out of my friends
I think MW2-BO2 were the golden years of COD, with BO3 also being good enough to hang with them. I know COD 4 and WaW were good, but they felt very limited due to their class systems and locked 3-5-7 killstreaks.
I have such a hard time ranking mw2, mw3, bo1 and bo2. But mw3 had arguably the funnest online ever with the amount of options we had in terms of killstreaks, guns maps ect and specialist was amazing
What an amazing cod , had some steady maps, no majorly overpowered guns there was favoured guns like acr and mp7 but they could still be outgunned by so many others , amazing gun choices in all the different types some amazing smg’s AR’s and snipers, great kill streaks and specialist was so good and the perks having pros that was actually good . Could be my favourite cod thinking about it had a lot of playing time
This call of duty was soooooo good. I played so much domination and drop zone on the ps3 Then infected and search and destroy as so forth. Black ops 1 and mw3 were just incredible. Ive enjoyed exactly zero cod games since
TDM is the only mode that is "populated", most are hacked. I kept getting into XP lobbies and ended up at 10th prestige in 10 matches. I don't feel bad about it, I maxed out the legit way on PS3 when the game was current. I play the old games on my Xbone S blu-ray player, the aiming is horrible. I've tried to set up my elite controller through the app, but it just is never feeling right. I found the best setting was the right stick on "delayed".
I never truly got into this game back in the day…I really tried…but its main problem for me was that it wasn’t MW2 with new maps. That being said, it shits all over the last few years new stuff hands down. We were spoilt back then. You don’t appreciate how good something is until it isn’t….
Fortunate, you are a beast in every way. But we need to talk about one thing. Your nades, fkn blows dude. I watch ALL your videos, and you always throw your nades too long, I get sooooooo triggered 😂
No skins, bundles, sbmm, sweating, etc. Just soldiers shooting guns and campers.
Back when camping was the biggest problem
mw2019 launch was definitely peak camping
This and BO2 will always have a special place in my heart
And og MW2
Same I have the mw3 logo tatted lol
Me to
@@NickWavvy yo thats dope af! The old one the og logo?
@@peet404 yea black MW and green 3😂
This game was so balanced. You could try hard for K/D, play support, or play for gun kills and MOABs with specialist.
Almost any AR or SMG was viable. Shotguns ruled (striker pre-nerf was INSANE). Didn’t snipe much because i liked kill confirm which was usually fast paced
Sniping was amazing on this game too though. You could spam the Barrett or run the MSR and L11 as your satisfying bolt action options.
Mw3 2011 was not balanced. Sledgehammer was clueless
Honestly specialist has to be the greatest innovation ever right?
I think so ghost and WW2 version are meh but it's still amazing
Absolutely
The thing about specialist is for me it encouraged me to play at a faster pace...with all those perks you felt like a superhero so why not and no killstreaks to think about to slow you down...sure you might die ocasially but just made it fun to run and gun and not take the game to seriously.
Most underrated COD 💜
it seriously is underrated, even when this cods mp is better than literally 80% of the games that dropped during cods Golden Era people sleep on it so much.
It’s pretty well rated
@@TheFreeBro not when it first released. I remember people complaining that mw2 and black ops were better than mw3.
Huh? MW3 was still in cods prime lol. Most underrated cod IMO is WWII. Bit of a hot take. I could sub Ghosts in there with the benefit of hindsight maybe
@@rayenwoomed5323well i still think black ops is better but it was for sure one of the best
I played this game non stop between 2011 and 2016. I quit because the lobbies got too bad. Such a fun game to rush and so much stuff to go for as a content creator.
I miss all the cods from the golden age:') R.I.P. cod
Golden age 07-13
Best cod ever, we had lethal, support and specialist killstreaks, sleight of hand, QuickDraw, dead silence and pro perks. Most innovative cod ever while simultaneously building upon what works and what the community wants.
Beside deadmans hand, martydom and not being able to yy this game was perfection.
Not even close to the best cod ever. Weapon balancing was awful, ACR that hit like an SMG and the MP7 that hit like an AR.
@@ridingwithsamyou’re a bot
@ridingwithsam learn about the MP7 in real life, and you'll understand why it wasn't unbalanced.
@@TheMagykKonch or I'm just not blinded by nostalgia
That extreme conditionning guy sitting in the corners made me laugh everytime in the video 🤣
where alll my survival lovers at?
hell yea
Here I am
Survival is so fun man
This cod has a special place in my heart. Infected on dome with the FMG9 akimbo's, the specialist killstreak, the maps, ...
I think the extreem condition dude had the perk to have enough stamina to camp
PP90 silenced was my go to!!
The original MW2 was the peak of gaming, MW3 was peak²
BO2 was pretty good.
I agree with this until after the comma.
Cod used to have an arcade feel to it and I could play for hours! When I play BO6, I can only handle a couple games before I am over it. Glad to have them memories because it seems like it will never be like this again. Simplicity is 🔑
Sadly the last arcade cod was Cold War
My favorite COD. Man I miss those days...
This brings back so many memories
0:42 this is me when i go back to the older cods crouching thinking im about to slide hahahaha
2007-2013 was Call of Duty's peak
Modern Warfare 3 was the first COD game I bought DLC for and I loved how it added monthly new content and how it added A LOT Of new content that all was original content. Only one remake, Terminal, which was free for everyone. It was a more balanced and more fleshed out MW2. Still my most played COD lol.
I still just whack on Survival and switch off my brain as I listen to vinyl records with a drink. Honestly quite the vibe.
Survival was a great mode. I try to find lobbies on that mode, but it is extremely rare.
I love watching your videos so much. It’s making me wanna go back and reach max prestige in all the old cods
i have been playing mw3 infected on and off everyday for the last 6 months because its been so much fun to go back and just chill tbh, there are full lobbys everyday, i would recommend for shoe!
I used to hate MW3 and went back to BO1 instead, but now I don’t know what I was thinking. I like MW3 better than BO1 now.
same happened to me when the game released, 2 months later I was compley in love
“Make sure we check every corner because guess what,” lol
My parents got this for me for Christmas and I wanted to cry. Only COD I ever maxed camos and prestige outside of BO2
Specialistbonus in MW3 will never be matched again
This was the cod I started with. what a blessing.
I played for nearly 10 hours this weekend on MW3 this weekend.
Was at 24 days played but at prestige 18 level 70. Some hacker jackass made me go to prestige 20 level 80 and unlocked everything. I'm somewhat annoyed.
Also, Old Jarhead is in my lobbies too. HOW DID I MISS YOU THIS WEEKEND!?
Wholesome adorable story bro
You can play on plutonium. It's free and no hackers
Imagine they reset you to level 1 lmao
I've also played with Jarhead 😂
@@Dylan_AlphaLoneKing Well, that would be 10 times worse hahah

Also, to find the lobbies you have to follow the snipers, they usually run groundwar lobbies but they fill up quick and stay packed once full
Been watching your videos like crazy lately, thanks for all the fire content
I started out on mw3. I still remember when I could barely get like 7 kills a match when I first started lol. by the time I left, I was able to get 40+ kills in tdm almost every single time and don't even get me started on domination. survival mode sharpened me well. definitely my favorite cod.
tdm, infected you can get lobbies pretty consistently. occasional ffa, and rarely a groundwar or dropzone lobby. tdm is best bet for regular game modes. i loved mw3 domination i wish people played it
On what console?
Blud only had extreme conditioning to run straight to the corner to camp😂
I remember how cool the magnifiers in this game were, so advanced technology :D. Also the biggest selling point of MW3 over MW2 for me was the variety of guns.
I loved survival in this game. We don't spoke enough about it, but it was so fucking cool. Camping in some covered spots with turrets, grenade launcher, claymore and so on
I love this video bro! Always an honour to watch u play real lobbies. 😊
I’d love to see an OG MW3 road to commander on the second channel Fort!
My all time favorite COD and I played through all the golden years. I just legit had the most fun playing this game
Mw3 is still my all time favorite Call of duty, mainly because of the support juggernauts built in portable radar. When I had that on I would be glad to come across courner campers because I would see them on my radar and go up to them in my riot shield.
That was probably my only time liking people sitting in corners because then they would have to leave knowing I was coming with that thing.
Also people I used to play mw3 with called the pp90 the squirms gun.
Also the survival mode on mw3 was also very fun. I miss that game a lot, it's reply among my most memorable games. To me they ruined the juggernaut after mw3... to me it's still my all time favorite kill/support streak.
This is the game where I just couldn't see anyone. Everything was a gray, green and brown blur.
This game will forever be legendary.
Whatever happened to that modded MW2 project that Activision shut down but then the community brought back? Is anybody still playing that?
That specialist streak was so OP. MW3 was definitely in the golden cod age.
LIVE STREAM THIS COD!!
The MSR and the ACR was my go to 🔥
Man I wish I could go back to some of these games to play them. I’m from Australia & on Xbox and over the last few years when I’ve tried, I’ve either not found games or just found cheaters. Also pretty much no one in Aus would be playing so it’s mainly ASIAN & US lobbies so the ping for me is wild
Either way, sick video, love seeing these old cods and getting to remember everything about them!

Honestly my favorite COD of all time
"Check those corners!" - Captain Price
"Check my corner" guy had me rollin
This was back when COD was addictive. COD4 to BO2 is the golden age of Call of Duty.
My personal favorite COD!
For me my top 5 is
1. Black ops 2
2. Black ops
3. MW3
4. World at war
5. Black ops 3
So I Absolutely loved MW3 I much preferred it to MW2 but I found I played much better my K/D was much higher and was a huge infected fan.
bro your patience to campers and cheaters is impressive
MW2, Bo1, MW3, Bo2 was peak cod
An OG that will always hold a place in my heart ❤
I love to see OG Videos 🥲
dude 700 total players out out of 8 billion is crazyyy
2:44 🏃🏻hahahahahaha
Fallen is one of may favorite maps of all time. So many memories in general on og mw3. 😢
MW3 had my favorite kill streak, the SAM turrent, i ran uav, counter, and sam. But the halirious part is the sam turrners will always miss and kill me somehow. I used to be know of the worst luck out of my friends
funny how even with all the campers and ACRs this is still 100000x times more fun than any of the recent CoDs
Yooo legend
MW3 is my favourite COD of all time, also had some great gamemodes.
I remember playing Team Defender and Infected in MW3, good old times
Hands down my fav cod
Mw3 was my favorite cod! I feel it’s so underrated. Lots of people d ride blops 2 so much
I think MW2-BO2 were the golden years of COD, with BO3 also being good enough to hang with them. I know COD 4 and WaW were good, but they felt very limited due to their class systems and locked 3-5-7 killstreaks.
I have such a hard time ranking mw2, mw3, bo1 and bo2. But mw3 had arguably the funnest online ever with the amount of options we had in terms of killstreaks, guns maps ect and specialist was amazing
Man I’m 23 now and I remember quick scoping with the MSR in 7th and 8 grade on
What an amazing cod , had some steady maps, no majorly overpowered guns there was favoured guns like acr and mp7 but they could still be outgunned by so many others , amazing gun choices in all the different types some amazing smg’s AR’s and snipers, great kill streaks and specialist was so good and the perks having pros that was actually good . Could be my favourite cod thinking about it had a lot of playing time
My favorite weapon in this game was the MK14 I'd love to see you use it, man!
ahhh all my 5th grade memories great video man
the drop shot from the CM901 had me 😂😂😂
Livestreams of this game would be dope
Love this game. Was playing it a lot about a year ago.
Time to get back on it again in 2025
Fav MW game!
Favourite cod ever 😮💨😮💨
I know they brought back the PP90 quite often, but this one just hit differentttt
Favourite cod of all time
You should play infected. There’s still a player base during most of the day and it’s really good for Moab’s, granted harder now than in its prime.
Honestly my favorite old cod
Criminally underrated CoD. I enjoyed this more than MW2 personally with greater class diversity and less cancer(OMA lol).
My fav cod MP ever
This call of duty was soooooo good.
I played so much domination and drop zone on the ps3
Then infected and search and destroy as so forth.
Black ops 1 and mw3 were just incredible. Ive enjoyed exactly zero cod games since
TDM is the only mode that is "populated", most are hacked. I kept getting into XP lobbies and ended up at 10th prestige in 10 matches.

I can still hear the MSR >>
I remember there being a double xp coin glitch and I think to this day I still have like over 1000 hours available lmfao I loved this game
The OG MW3 will always have a special place in my ❤
I never truly got into this game back in the day…I really tried…but its main problem for me was that it wasn’t MW2 with new maps.
That being said, it shits all over the last few years new stuff hands down. We were spoilt back then. You don’t appreciate how good something is until it isn’t….
Fortunate, you are a beast in every way. But we need to talk about one thing. Your nades, fkn blows dude. I watch ALL your videos, and you always throw your nades too long, I get sooooooo triggered 😂
I run mw3 on my series x on some Mondays and Tuesdays when I’m off work so if I ever see you on I’ll join up bro
my favorite cod ever. i played this game for years!
mw3 had better maps than mw2 and i forgot about the assist count as kills
It is crazy for how bad fallen was that it would be a top tier map now a days.
The map Fallen was so good on SND
Love when you post the OG CoD's! Can you do a killstreak one for MW3? Like attack helicopter etc.
One of my favorite games of all time
Can you imagine that cod used to be a fun series?
This will always be the GOAT. I know people like BO2, but as a pure Public PVP game, its MW3.
