dissatisfied players leave negative reviews… but play the wrong game

2023-11-08 10:57:58

Bad reviews were published on the page of the game “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3”, released in 2011, but players actually wanted to complain regarding “Modern Warfare III”, the latest opus expected for November 10.

Even not yet released, the new Call of Duty is already the victim of criticism. Officially, the title Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III will only be available from Friday, November 10. But early access allows you to discover the new history of the license since Thursday, November 2.

Too short and full of cutscenes, the single-player mode did not appeal to players. And the latter make it known, in particular by publishing negative opinions on the rating aggregator Metacritic. The only problem is that the criticism is directed once morest another game in the serieswhich bears the same name, notes IGN.

Two games for one title

Because for several years, Call of Duty has undertaken a reboot (a reboot) of its Modern Warfare episodes, which helped explode the popularity of the license at the end of the 2000s. But by using the same name as the episode from 2011, the latest livery from publisher Activision is differentiated only by a number.

The 2011 episode is called Modern Warfare 3 while the 2023 episode – supposed to celebrate 20 years of Call of Duty – is called Modern Warfare III. A subtle distinction which deceived players wishing to immortalize their disgust with the game on Metacritic.

Because for several days, it is the 2011 opus which has received a flood of criticism, both positive and negative. But now, all that remains is the kind opinions. Metacritic seeks to limit review-bombing, which consists of giving mass bad ratings to a game for sometimes extra-ludic reasons, by further moderating the opinions that the site receives.

Above all, the last episode not being officially released, sa page Metacritic does not yet allow access to the community reviews area. The notes concerning the title Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III will not be accessible until November 10.
