Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Supports 32-Player Console Games?

The video offering proof that the console version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 supports up to 32-player online matches has been pulled due to a copyright claim from Activision, but that fact alone at least suggests that the leak was legit. The brief clip posted at SFX-360 was taken from the game build that Call of Duty XP attendees will be playing this weekend.

In addition to the video's confirmation of 32-player matches, it also showed what appears to be a new game mode, called Bomb. This could be a mash-up playlist of bomb-based objective modes (ie Search and Destroy, Demolition, Sabotage) or it could be a new mode entirely. 

A map list spotted in the clip also reveals the names of 13 of the game's multiplayer locations: Carbon, Coast, Dome, Exchange, Hardhat, Interchange, Lambeth, Meteora, Mogadishu, Paris, Plaza, Radar and Seatown.

    That map is strike and im guessing that is still on MW2. Unless that is not a picture from video then that is still MW2.

    32 players in a match? I don't know if there will be enough dark corners to go around in the campfest that is the CoD community

    If maps aren't recycled, then I'm getting the game and the packs to come.

    If the map Are recycled BUT only for the 32-player game modes, then I'll buy.

    If maps are recycled for ALL game modes.... pass on the maps. Buy on the game.

    Statement from Activision:

    "We just heard that another modern war game that's probably better than ours will be, is releasing at about the same time. We think it's the multi-player number, so we're stapling on some space for more players. That should ensure our first day revenue stream!"

    Hate to be that guy but if I recall 18 player is the cap for peer-to-peer

    Unless MW3 has dedicated servers on console don't be surprised if you don't see 32 player MM

    I bet ya this is going to turn out to be a cod elite feature. That's all I can figure given that if they don't charge, it would cost activision an arm and a leg

    if this is real, the COD might really actually die this time. the gameplay in it is designed for arena-based, small team games.

    i don't know how I feel about having 32 players running around on one map. I mean unlike BF, COD isn't one to usually make large maps and if they are as big as the usual "large" maps that have been created previously, then I can't say that I am optimistic in regards to the size. However, I am always up for new modes and new ideas for a game so as long as it's just another option that I can choose to play or not then hey put it in.

    In regards to camping... Can't say I enjoy doing it or experiencing it from others however I would rather fight an army of camper than a team who do nothing but spawn trap. THAT is the stuff that ruins the game for me to be honest.

    There is a 0% chance of this working on a p2p network. I don't care if you are have the best developers and networkers in the world working on it, not gonna happen. I doubt Activision will pay for enough dedicated servers for about 5 million+ people as well. Not to mention they will have to triple the average size of each map. I just don't see a miracle like this happening.

    This troll ^ would like to know if the riot shield is coming back. Does anyone know?

    Resistance 2 has 60 players in one match...MAG has 256 players in one match...BF3 will have 64 for PC...so 32 really isnt that big of a number. I already know the CoD fanboys are going to rate this down, but R2 and MAG are better shotters, imo, and I'm sure BF3 will be better as well.

    If you complain about campers,. then you infact are the bad player. A kill is a kill, and getting killed is still getting killed, be it by campers or whatever. Play to play, play to win, dont play to complain.

    Never really liked those bigger team battles, so I don't really mind if it's there or not.
