I choked at “I’m convinced that top speed runners not only know each individual spawn point, but they also know their address, ssn, and name”. 😂 I would have loved to see your run in comparison- even if it does not compare. It’s crazy how fast you learn these runs and how much you improve. The strafing looks impossible to me, but I bet you did well.
Funny how 12+ year old games are both more fun and more lengthy than their „reboot” versions. For me, COD MW3 2011 was my first step into the call of duty series, and I fell in love. It’s so sad that the series recently went towards the money>immersion and experience style. Wish we could get the old COD style games.
Captain Price really is the MVP of the Modern Warfare series hands down. I actually like MW 1,2, and 3, with 3 having yuri be the one that connects some parts of the over-arching plot, some much variety and combat scenarios especially MW 2's "enemy of my enemy" having multi faction combat. What a great trilogy of games!
Really cool to see the OG MW Trilogy all covered. Speedruns of the singleplayer do not get as much attention as they probably should so it's cool seeing all of this. MW3 is one of my favorite games for it's Spec Ops and Survival missions, and I found the Campaign difficult, but enjoyable casually. Speedruns however, I could see the pain. I think it can feel somewhat RNG heavy with taking damage when trying to move quickly than the other two, especially in Veteran.
I just recently beat the MW trilogy on veteran for achievements sake and yeah MW3 definitely felt the “hardest” but it seemed like it came down to more poorly designed levels rather than an “actual challenge”
By the way i think Price had his leg cut and his femoral artery severed. In a cut ending a shadowy figure was supposed to come out, look at the two, and walk away as the cigar slipped from Prices mouth and he died from bloodloss, his arm going limp.
Recently played through all of the OG modern warfares again and they've gotta be my favourite first person shooters ever. Awesome to see a speed run :)
Watching this video's sponsor segment while playing said sponsor game! Also, I enjoyed the video essay on the speedruns of this game, very entertaining!
12:17 wouldn't it be useful to use a flashbang to temporarily stun at least some of the enemies to mitigate the amount of damage taken while running through? Also uh... can we get BF4 speedruns pretty please?
I really like these videos. It’s cool to see how speedrunners push these games to their limits while also hearing the game plot as we go along. It’s a nice mixture of high-level gameplay and nostalgia. I love MW2 but I feel like MW3 had the superior multiplayer experience. Both are still great fun though, especially since Activision/microsoft made fixes to matchmaking for Xbox series consoles
Lol imagine if the NPC's were self aware in the game the speedrun would be something like: *Soap injured on the table* Yuri: alright pressure on the wound real quick, no use, ok Soap's dead let's go! *runs to the door* *Price punches him down the stairs* "Why does Makarov know you?!" Yuri: "Long time ago, he nuked a city yadda yadda I didn't like it he shot me at the airpopot, no time for stories let's go!"
A lot of these big cutscenes and WW3 wouldn't have happen had everybody know when to pull out their firearm (aka. Soap lives and Makarov and Shepherd die way earlier)
MW3's multiplayer and campaign would be just as revered as MW2 if it came out in their place. I think they both are incredible games but MW3 is highly underrated because MW2 was an absolute masterpiece
A few of their ideas were dumb like no YYing your weapons but overall it was a great game, specialist was an awesome addition and stuff like the prestige shop was dope and actually gave you even more of a reason to prestige in older games lol
Spliced runs are allowed for entertainment purposes only and to show best possible time. Someone should try it to see what the best possible time possibly could be?
Hi again EZScape! Sorry for commenting this again in this video, but I would love to see you do a video of you talking about Colin McRae Rally 2.0 speedruns
do the colin mcrae games have any glitches and interesting tricks or anything? just a video about racing the tracks as fast as possible sounds a bit dull :P
@@raafmaat I know that the general consensus is that rally and racing games are boring and you just drive and drive and nothing else. Remember that that argument of you do the same thing over and over again can be applied to any game
I clicked on this thinking it was the 2023 MW3...it makes me sad that it's not because seeing these clips of the OG MW3...makes me sad for whatever the f the new game is.
When frost died in the game. I started using Sgt_Frost as my gamertag and have used it ever since even to this day Edit: He is alive my kid brain thought he died with the rest of the task force
@BananaProtocol Frost is most likely dead actually. And he was there for Down the Rabbit Hole. Frost is responsible for blwoing up the caves, it happens in a spec-ops mission. He is given the order and most likely doesnt survive.
Rip i actually thought he died lol will have to do more research on it thanks for the info guys!!! EDIT.. he is alive and well hopefully I get to see my character when they decide to make a decent COD game
I’m new to speedrunning so idk if this is a stupid question but surely there should be a rule where they have to pick a higher difficulty? Recruit is for kids and disabled players and most adults/teenagers wouldn’t play on it so it’s almost like the runner isn’t even playing the same game as the rest of us
Different difficulties are different categories, but in general, the default category is just completing the game as fast as possible, for which you'd obviously play the lowest difficulty.
There are veteran runs out there if you want to give that a shot but the main runs are on recruit because its way more consistant. Veteran is mostly just an rng fest. But both do require skill.
@@scorchedsniper I suppose that’s a fair point, having played most cods on veteran I do agree that it feels like there’s RNG or inconsistency at times. On the other hand recruit does sometimes look like the player is essentially playing with no enemies or god mode because the AI are so weak. I suppose that each difficulty has its pros and cons for speedrunning
Tbf it’s development was pretty jank so I’m sure they sacrificed things like its graphics in order to make the game launch in a somewhat completed state
@@vibe2118 Yeah? "Mission pack sequel" has been a thing since games started getting made. A sequel doesn't have to be completely different or overhauled.

😂
No
Crazy how a speed run of this game is the same length as a causal run of the new mw3
truth
Omg shut up remember it technically is a dlc
💀💀
Yeah the old games were so much longer... which meant more gameplay and time to absorb the story.
😂

It wasn't my first experience but it's definitely my favorite cod making custom infected lobbys and playing survival was lit
This speedrun felt longer than MW# 2023's campaign played normally
Cause mw3 was suppose to be a dlc!!!!

14:30 that dog took more shots than the bad guys lol
You didn’t have to do Soap like that 💀
He really did drop the soap on SOAP💀💀💀
THOAP
Ok zoomer
Love your videos and all the work you do EZScape, you have built a great community over the years!

That was a very neat review, good job ! Whose's not just an exceptionnal runner, he also explained everything well

I love these videos so much, you explain the run AND the story of the game.
Teamates only move when you're looking at them because they want you to cover them... or because they know you're a spy and don't want to get shot.
Always great to have a EZ video to watch while eating dinner! Great vid as usual man!
I appreciate MW3 because it pulled off something impossible. It ended a trilogy in a satisfying way😂
Watching this video's sponsor segment while playing said sponsor game! Also, I enjoyed the video essay on the speedruns of this game, very entertaining!
My brother got his first moab on this game on resistance great times
Is that soccer game thing real!!!??? that looks so funny

Glad to have you back with an upload bro, was wondering about you after listening to a Karl jobst video
MW3 was awesome. Loved that game. I also know nothing about speed running games but I love watching and hearing the how ppl do it
40:53 "Sometimes it takes 2 RPGs instead of one to fully blow them up, it's just random.", Dude you completely miss the 1st shot there LMAO
I remember grinding away on survival on this game. Good times.
I loved this game growing up, great speed run and I miss it. Great video!
damn i need to play those campaigns again
I just recently beat them all on veteran for achievements and man they are actually better than I remember lol
Lol imagine if the NPC's were self aware in the game the speedrun would be something like:
*Soap injured on the table*
Yuri: alright pressure on the wound real quick, no use, ok Soap's dead let's go! *runs to the door*
*Price punches him down the stairs*
"Why does Makarov know you?!"
Yuri: "Long time ago, he nuked a city yadda yadda I didn't like it he shot me at the airpopot, no time for stories let's go!"
22:25 ive never seen this wtf 🤣
I know that people will write this, so let me write it first: So much better than MWIII.
You are wrong MW3 is superior to MW3
@frost_BF3 MW3 from 2011 is better than MWIII from 2023 that's what I mean.
OG COD MW trilogy better than the reboot trilogy
@@ArjunTheRageGuy Yes
@@frost_BF3 Nuh uh, MW3 is definitely better than MW3
Can't wait to watch this later good shit bro!!
A lot of these big cutscenes and WW3 wouldn't have happen had everybody know when to pull out their firearm (aka. Soap lives and Makarov and Shepherd die way earlier)
I died when he said Heraford.
I personally vastly prefer Mw3 over Mw2
MW3's multiplayer and campaign would be just as revered as MW2 if it came out in their place. I think they both are incredible games but MW3 is highly underrated because MW2 was an absolute masterpiece

Last CoD i played. Good times
You made the right choice, although black ops 2 n 3 were both phenomenal.
The Cold War n warzone series are awful though.
@@rogerveid2270 BO2 is honestly the last actually good cod game.
How you said hereford MADNESS
In MW2 you can get lucky on Hornet's Nest and get a friendly named Sandman.
Hear ford ❤😂😂😂
Thanks I was waiting for this vid
Love that soccer can be more important thab the fact you're in an active zone
Spliced runs are allowed for entertainment purposes only and to show best possible time. Someone should try it to see what the best possible time possibly could be?
I feel so much smarter already, thanks Mr. Scape for the video
I think that is nikolai, not yuri, you can see that he doesnt have a hole in his lower torso 47:08
Is it messed up that I would always use a glitch to get a gun in the cutscene and shoot the little girl?
Why, WHY can't they make campaigns like they used to?
MAKE CALL OF DUTY CAMPAIGNS GREAT AGAIN
Literally because they don't need to. They can shit out a 3 hour long DMZ campaign and people still buy it.
I’ve become quite good at the training mission stay sharp, one time I got a clean 26.0
Best COD ever
Ouhhhhh letsgo EzScape with another cod run letsgoo
This is my second cod game
you should do one on black ops or waw
wow this modern warfare compared to the new one is night and day god i miss the old COD
MW3 is best cod and the first one I purchased without my parents being there
Great vid but every brit heard you butcher "Hereford" :D
One of the most underrated cods imo
bro smoked the opps
I really did expect this to be a video about veteran. If recruit is this nuts, how hard is veteran ?
MW3 was definitely the “hardest” out of the MW trilogy but I think it was more due to poor game design than the game actually being “challenging”
Hi again EZScape! Sorry for commenting this again in this video, but I would love to see you do a video of you talking about Colin McRae Rally 2.0 speedruns

@@raafmaat We have found cuts but also interesting glitches and out of bounds to finish the stages. Particularly on CMR 2.0
@@fairrodthecapacitor ah right! now it sounds alot more interesting!
@@raafmaat I know that the general consensus is that rally and racing games are boring and you just drive and drive and nothing else. Remember that that argument of you do the same thing over and over again can be applied to any game
@@fairrodthecapacitor no no, racing games are great! but in general they dont lend themselves much for good speedrunning content!
So a speed run is only an hour less than MWIII full campaign 💀💀
that was fun
When this game came out people were like russia invading manhattan, not impossible but very improbable.
Nowadays its more like a meme
Oh hey after 3 months hes back from the dead once again lol
I clicked on this thinking it was the 2023 MW3...it makes me sad that it's not because seeing these clips of the OG MW3...makes me sad for whatever the f the new game is.
"(call of duty)"
thanks had no idea
Did you get upset because Avengers: Endgame wasnt just called Endgame?
Fuck yeah brother
Nice title
Dude youre time can be beaten
When frost died in the game. I started using Sgt_Frost as my gamertag and have used it ever since even to this day
Edit: He is alive my kid brain thought he died with the rest of the task force
Frost didn't die, he simply did not join the Delta Squad for the Down the Rabbit Hole mission .He is most likely alive and well
@BananaProtocol Frost is most likely dead actually. And he was there for Down the Rabbit Hole. Frost is responsible for blwoing up the caves, it happens in a spec-ops mission. He is given the order and most likely doesnt survive.
@@justanotheryoutubewatcher5330 And at the end of the spec ops mission he's taken back by a helicopter
Rip i actually thought he died lol will have to do more research on it thanks for the info guys!!! EDIT.. he is alive and well hopefully I get to see my character when they decide to make a decent COD game
do black ops 1 next
Wr time will be 10min
I comment to help statistics
mw3 the best cod
Don’t care MW3 had the best campaign ever
COD 4 3 or COD 4 3 3?
lool

Why is the video in Russian?
Man I don’t remember MW3 looking this ugly
Tbf it’s development was pretty jank so I’m sure they sacrificed things like its graphics in order to make the game launch in a somewhat completed state
DO MW3 PLEASE i bet u can beat it in like 30 min if the game doesnt break xD 2023 mw3
"superior multiplayer experience" ?!?!!? LOOL U DID NOT SAY THAT WOW
everything was better than mw3 online xDD at least on PC.
WTF is wrong With You
Was waiting for just this video.
I remember getting this on launch in 8th grade 🥹
The good mw3. So pissed at the 70 dollar dlc being passed as a full game. I cannot believe anyone bought it.
Even playing this one as fast as possible only means you beat a full normal playthough of the new one by a single hour. What a joke.
People were saying the same thing with the original and how derivative it was.
@@konradfun it was suppose to be an expansion…
@@vibe2118 Yeah? "Mission pack sequel" has been a thing since games started getting made. A sequel doesn't have to be completely different or overhauled.
