Crazy how I was 15 when I was playing this game in its prime, straight off of playing BO1 and MW2, fast forward 10 years and here we are at 25. I miss being a teenager, and I miss when COD was like this.
Same here bro, turning 26 next month. I remember playing this and MW2 / BO2 in their prime with my mates, the rush from school to home to turn on my PS3 and hop on a Skype call with my friends was real. How time flies...
@@Forchoonitittie couldn’t of said it any better myself bro. If you asked me 10 years ago when I was 15 if I could time travel Anywhere I would of said the future, ask me today and the answer is take me back to 2009
I had a bad attitude towards this game when it came out cause I was an MW2 diehard. Wish I gave this game more of a chance during its primary lifecycle
@@Rezector really makes you nostalgic and sad that you’ll never be able to relive these times again huh, tho still happy to been part of the old cod games when they were brandnew
The best, was questioned by my friends for giving up “free kills” with kill streaks when I finally swapped full time to specialist…. But my KD started flying high and MOABs started coming, so much better than the streaks
@@jerryplaysfortnite7663 Likely because PS3 lobbies for classic cods are quite consistently populated and less chance of hackers than xbox lobbies. Unless it's black ops 2 which is terrible with cheaters on all platforms
@@jerryplaysfortnite7663 Compared to Playstation, Xbox has had more issues with cheaters and weirdos for cod lobbies. It's fairly well known about people in Xbox live doxxing, hacking and cheating for classic cods. This is probs why in comparison to ps3 the xbox lobbies are sorta dead
Has a special place in my heart this CoD as it’s the first I played religiously. Played MW/MW2/BO1 but mainly ‘at a friends house’ type thing. Love MW3, just a solid multiplayer. Still hop on from time to time now for a nostalgia fix.
The online multi-player of the early COD's or specifically MW1 thru BO2, was the best time I ever had in gaming. You could probably say I was addicted. I remember an NFL player who was drafted ( Indianapolis Colts, I believe) who never showed up to team duties. He would get so angry with himself and break the game disc. Then the next day, he'd get up and buy a new copy when the store opened. I think he said he cracked the top 20 worldwide. Oh well, COD is trash now.
To a lot of people COD died in 2013 after Ghosts release. Before that Activision dropped 6 straight absolute bangers. MW, WAW, MW2, BO1, MW3 and BO2 all back to back. Ghosts was the end of the era of the golden era of Call of Duty. Then the future came. From Advanced Warfare to BO3 and IW the years from 2014-2016 marked the start and end of a new ear of COD. Many by this point were completely fed up with Call of Duty. The futuristic gameplay did not sit well with many so in a desperate attempt to revive the COD series changes had to be made. So in 2017 Sledgehammer games dropped the pile of trash that is COD WW2. In an attempt to return to the roots of Call of Duty. However this would backfire badly. So what did Activision do in response? They went back to the future. With 2018 marking the release of the campaignless BO4 Activision made it clear they were looking to take the series in a different direction. With the inclusion of Blackout a BR (battle royale) game in which follows the standard BR formula. But with no campaign the game would flop. So with a span of 5 years marking nothing but failure COD was down in the dumps. Activision finally pulled their head out of their ass and gave us a half decent game. COD MW2019. But with a lackluster campaign and completely awful spec ops mode the multiplayer would have carry most of the weight. And it did just that and with the later inclusion of Warzone the game would soar to new heights. And with this new found success what would Activision do next. Well they would give us 2 straight years of pure garbage followed up by a mediocre and less than predecessor game in MW2022.
I've tried MW3 on PS3 today. A coincidence that you mentioned it now since it's been years since I last played it on console... I was able to find a TDM lobby easily and I found no cheaters, the problem is the connection... It's terrible...
@@markosljivar5728 Hey i had to use my old account to play MW2/MW3/BO1/BO2. An account from 2011 as my 2015 account wouldn't work due to an update on their servers or something.
@@alcantara8874 Negativo. Estou com tempo curto devido ao trabalho, mas pelos menos 1x por semana entro no IW4x, preferencialmente nos servers NN. PlutoMW3 não roda muito bem na minha batata, então nem animo muito.
Honestly the best MW game from the classic trilogy, it had it all. Great campaign, fun spec ops & Survival mode plus a Multiplayer that had better map design, specialists, balanced and less Op guns/killstreaks from MW2. Such an incredible game!
Hello fortunate, today i played with you, it was a lot of fun. We def need more MW3 and i hope i see you again in there I just saw that M.O.A.B had my name on it
Look I really love both cod4/MWR and MW2 but MW3 was my very first cod that got me into the franchise so for obvious reasons this will always be my favorite of the trilogy. I would die if they announced a mp remaster one day😩
My favourite part about your videos is not only the nostalgia I get from the games but the format of your videos takes me back to OG COD commentary days. Very few people still do what you do, consistently as well. Love your stuff dude
My son got an XBox when this came out. I got hooked as well and this was my favorite map. Great seeing it again - strangely nostalgic and definitely the golden age of the franchise.
This was my first cod. 25 years old now. I used to split screen with my bros, and we got really good(screen watching 24/7). We live out in rural area, so when internet came to us, our minds exploded with soo much fun. This will forever be our game.
This game was my shit!! I played this game so much. I have 255 days played on this game. Not something to brag about considering that’s a long ass time to play a game, but damn I miss playing it. 💚💚💚
My most played COD game ever & it was so underrated. One of my favorite things about it was all you had to do was get kills to get a gun gold so EVERYONE could get em (even the folks with negative K/Ds). Drop zone was the only thing I played & the fastest match my party completed was under 2 mins. I changed my name on the PS4 so i lost my whole account on the PS3 😔
Still remember playing the midnight release to win a free copy at GameStop and then going to my cousins with my PS3 to play downstairs while we got the whole clan on to just destroy lobbies. Great times!!!!
my fav cod right here. we couldn't afford xbox live back then so i didn't experience multi player but me and my cousin always went crazy in survivor mode...good times :)
This game was so sweet 10 years ago I'm shocked it's still kicking I played fair but played enuf I was decent I got perfect game twice on dome and village I'd easy do 30/3-4 for k/d was too fun
I never Owned MW2 (Although had played it before) and only had very limited experience playing MW online. But all my friends started playing this game, so I gave in and got it, and I’ve never played a video game as much as I did this one. I know a lot of people hold MW2 in high regard and rightfully so, but this was the game for me that I learned basically everything on. I started as a noob who probably resembled something of a bot and by the time I moved on from the game I had prestiged a good handful of times, unlocked almost everything there was to unlock, etc. Staying up all night without a care in the world. Good times, then adulthood set in 😭
Kind of funny how my first COD was Bo2 but I bought this game pre owned and went back and played it this and Bo2 are forsure my favorite CODS ever !!!!
When I was awaiting my new job I had 3 or 4 weeks till start date...banged out the PS3 and sat through all the old cods was pleasantly surprised to see I could get games from BO1 to MW3 such good memories ♥️❤️
About 3Pm yesterday (9/25/22) there were roughly 200 people on MW3 ps3. Mostly playing TD, Dom and actually a full server of infected. Sad no one plays All or Nothing or Dropzone anymore. Even MW3SOME was great
Ok I need to add to this. I know you won’t see this but is you do. Mw3 does not work on ps3 if you have a new account or changes your name since like 2019. I played it on my friends ps3 so I bought my own 1. Waited a month and it doesn’t work
I remember being 13yo and joining a clan where you had to be 18+. My little ass tried to make my voice deeper which definitely didn't work but I ended up getting in anyway🤣 (bloody South mob) if I remember correctly. Master prestige on mw2, black ops, mw3, and bo2. Those 4 games will forever hold a huge place in my heart. Pretty much quit gaming after bo2 🥺😅
I play MW3 and BO2 regularly on my Xbox X and don’t have issues finding any TDM lobbies. BO2 is loaded with hackers but you find an occasional lobby. MW2 takes me a minute to find a lobby but it can be done!
MW2 has a giant discord dedicated to Ground War, Search, and other game modes. You can get Michael Myers and stuff. Also they have it for MW3, BO1, and WAW
You also gotta figure that consoles have issues with modders and people doing some scummy stuff and there's no admins or scripts to ban them. Last time I was on MW2 and 3 there were like 1k and about 600 people on, respectively and that was during night hours on Xbox back comp
I remember there was this one map that had a tree you could jump onto that led to an invisible slope which then brought you up to like an invisble skybox or something. It was perfect for cheesing Infected lol.
Hey Fortunate, cods in ps3 is still alive to this day, me and my friends always host a domination lobby (with mics) in mw3, and sometimes I go to bo1 with my other homies, about the hackers, I'm pretty sure there are plenty but not most of the time. And also you might catch ground war lobbies in mw3 because of the German dudes in discord who hosts it. Would like to see you there
I never played MW1, MW2 or MW3 because I didn't have money nor knowledge that it existed, but before buying my Xbox 360 I use to watch quite a lot of those. I wish I could play them - at least nowadays - but unfortunately these lobbies isn't populated (especially in my region) and it's quite expensive for an old game. Anyways, thanks for the content!
Been playing mw3 a lot backwards compatible on Xbox one. I wait in a TDM lobby for either 10 minutes or 1 minute lol. No infected games. 1-2 ground war lobbies and that’s pretty much it.
On ps3, its still populated. I even found 2 spec ops lobby. Bht any new accounts made after Jan 2019 will not be able to play, because a error message will say, "Communication with the Activision servers have been interupped." Real sad stuff
@03:59 was the exact reason why I don’t play MW3 anymore, despite it being my favorite multiplayer FPS of all time - the hit reg / lag comp is unbearable, especially if you rush and have a run n gun playstyle.
So i have been playing mw2 and mw3 on 360 lately and I’ve found it’s easier to find games on mw2 there’s usually a few snd lobbies and a domination or tdm lobby i can find. Time of day is important tho. Love the vids man keep up the awesome content!
im not sure how populated iw4x servers are but I know xbox mw2 is still very populated. Thanks to mw2 discords, I can always find multiple lobbies. And there are way more lobbies that arent even posted in the discord too. One discord has a population of 16.5k and the other 6.3k
I get on mw3 every day .. and I notice that around 6-9 pm central .. people actually populate the servers .. mw2 only really on weekends u can get some good lobbies
MW3>MW2 I play on xbox and I'm Australian. You can usually find a lobby with a decent connection around prime time (7pm). Impossible to find a game at almost any other time, unless you find an American lobby - which has brutal ping.
I play on the series s, the only way I can get into a cod game is from recent games that I played and I would find the players and just join their lobby
Ps3 is still active enough to find games with fair connection during the day. Unfortunately, only accounts that had accessed mw3 prior to a psn update are capable of online play unless you use mod menus. Also, there’s some people cheating that you need to avoid
I played MW3 on Xbox one in the last days. There are lobbys, especially in groundwar but I think the most people are from the USA and I can’t connect to them :/
W vid bro! I can still find lobbies in regular TDM and FFA, but the only issue is the servers disconnecting during the in-game lobby and during matches. Other than that, still enjoying this game alongside with MW2
