Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is Getting a Laser Gun, and Fans Aren't Sure How to Feel

Highlights

  • Fans are conflicted about laser guns returning to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in the Season 5 update.
  • Addition of futuristic elements in Call of Duty series generates mixed reactions among players.

As a long-time fan of the Call of Duty series, I’ve seen my fair share of controversies and debates within the community. The recent announcement that laser guns are making a return to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in the Season 5 update has left me feeling conflicted.

Players of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 are in a dilemma upon hearing that lasers guns will make a comeback in the game. The forthcoming Season 5 update for this title is set to introduce a multitude of alterations, one of which allows converting a weapon that was previously introduced into a laser gun.

The inclusion of futuristic features in the “Call of Duty” gameplay has sparked debates within the gaming community since the release of “Call of Duty: Black Ops 2” in 2012, which introduced a more futuristic visual style. However, it wasn’t until “Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare” in 2014 that players were given Exo movement capabilities, allowing them to traverse the maps at high speeds in new ways. While some installments in the “Call of Duty” franchise have since incorporated similar technology, others have opted out due to the divisive reactions from gamers. Given the varying preferences among fans, it’s no surprise that these futuristic elements don’t always sit well with everyone.

During their exploration of the upcoming changes in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3‘s Season 5 update, Reddit user jonnyvue brought up an intriguing discovery: a new attachment kit for the BAL-27 Assault Rifle named JAK Deathmarch. According to the description, this modification swaps out regular ammo with electric power cells and replaces the standard barrel with a photonic scatter one. This results in players being able to fire a spread of deadly laser beams that effectively eliminate enemies at close quarters. The announcement has sparked varying reactions from Call of Duty enthusiasts.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Fans Share Laser Gun Conflict

One player bluntly stated, “You shouldn’t be shocked given their past actions regarding Vanguard,” as others criticized the inclusion of goofy cosmetics in what was intended to be a World War 2 game. Some players embraced the amusement of laser weapons, with one commenting, “It’s just a video game nearing its end, let’s have some fun.” A few players may incorporate this into their loadouts for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. As another user noted, such occurrences aren’t unheard of in the context of “Nicki Minaj taking over from Rick Grimes, who was hiding with Skeletor.” The addition of cosmetics from other franchises arguably makes it simpler to accept features like laser guns.

As a dedicated gamer, I’m excitedly counting down the days until the end of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3‘s run. The anticipation for Black Ops 6 from Treyarch is reaching new heights, and I can hardly wait. To make things even better, this upcoming addition to the series will be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one. That means I’ll have easy access to the latest installment of the beloved franchise without any extra hassle. Plus, before its official release, there’s a public beta coming up in September. This is my chance to get hands-on experience with Black Ops 6 and share valuable feedback with the developers.
