  • Although it is very hard to tell I THINK think is multiplayer only. Can anyone confirm?

    • +1

      yes its MP only

      • Yep, MP only. Around 14GB.

      • This should be in the details, also very annoyed at steam how how (intentionally I'm sure) unclear this is.

        • +2

          It was clear to me when I downloaded it.

        • Can you tell me where it says this?

        • I downloaded it last night and it was clear at that time that this was a free multiplayer only weekend offer.

          The Free Weekend of Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 3 will let you play the entire multiplayer portion of the base game.

  • Wheres the cheapest place to get MW3 online?

      • thanks for that.

        • +1

          Ohh I forgot to say, if I were you I'd probably wait till Sunday to buy from a CD key store. Some might see the Steam sale then discount their prices of MW3 so you'll be able to pick it up even cheaper.

      • Make sure you don't get a Russian key. Otherwise you'd have to manually patch it every time there's an update.

        • +1

          Russian keys fine now since they have built in English files now but requires you to use the provided russian vpn which takes like 30 seconds anyway .

      • Are you planning to bump the price down a little over the weekend?

        • We already made a %10 discount yesterday. I'm not sure when can we make this again.

  • free to play for weekend
    or free to d/l and play forever?

    • +2

      Free weekend, they wouldn't be that generous :p

      • +8

        one weekend is all you need to realise you don't want to play any longer than that

        • Lol yeah, i gotta agree with you. I played up to prestige 3 and quit a month ago due to many hackers…

          Playing BF3 instead

        • 5 mins is all you need to work out that you won'T be good at this unless you play it all time.
          Losing is not fun!

        • +2

          I agree . Played it half a dozen times and it was just hard work . I have neither the time or inclination , This game is strickly for the hard core .

    • The former. And only multiplayer.

      • thought it might be to like get big customer base and then release all these cool maps and weapons and bright outfits.

        • +2

          and hats

        • and crates

          and then to buy keys to unlock them…DAMN VALVE!

  • +1

    I'm in , I'd be happy to find low ping players this weekend.

  • How long has this game been out and they're already having a free to play weekend?

    • This game is has pretty much gained platinum status already and sales are tapering…. so free weekend and DLC it is.

  • I already own the game and I tried playing tonight but 26/27 games had hackers in them so no good. Seeing as people seem to be creating a new steam account just to play with an aimbot/wallhack there is no way that the banning process will ever catch up.

    Nice idea but you'll be unlikely to get any decent play in during the $0 period. Plus all the regular players get screwed over too.

    Unless something is done to prevent the cheating I'm going to find it hard to justify paying for any DLC :(

  • Yes, a generous waste of time.

    1 hour to download, 30 minutes to install, 30 minutes to set up an account, 30 minutes to troubleshoot firewall/AV/browser issues (read: lose will to live), 30 minutes to find a decent server, and only 30 seconds of gameplay to find out that this game is a crock of sh*t.

    • Learn for the future: often these weekend deals (including this one) allows you to pre-download the files a few days in advance of the weekend, so when the weekend rolls around you only have the 35 min to waste: 30 min to find server + 30sec of game play to find out you wasted your internet usage on nothing :p
