The bad news for gamers is the legal dispute, according to Activision, is delaying the project's pre-production.
In their counter-suit, Activision claims that West and Zampella (before they were fired) were intentionally delaying the pre-production of Modern Warfare 3 in order to use it as "leverage in their negotiations with Activision" (via Kotaku). Activision also says in the case that the duo's alleged secret meetings with their "closest competitor" (almost certainly Electronic Arts) contributed to the delays, and that "as a direct and proximate result of this breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, Activision has been forced to commit additional resources to Modern Warfare 3."
In a statement released shortly after the counter-suit was made public, Robert Schwartz, West and Zampella's attorney, called Activision's allegations "false and outrageous."
As for Modern Warfare 3, we all know Activision intends to release a new Call of Duty every year, with this year's version rumored to be set during the Vietnam War. That would likely put Activision's desired release date for Modern Warfare 3 in 2011, assuming whatever current delays that may or may not be taking place don't push it off too much.
I don't know if this has been posted before but I don't believe so.
So does this basically mean that MW3 has been confirmed or is it just a tease on us. I think it is a confirmation just because it was sort of announced when two of the Infinity Ward producers or whatever were sued for using something from the plan of MW3?! I don't know for sure the details of that but I think that this is a confirmation that MW3 will come out some time in 2011 but there is not yet a confirmed date or anything like that.
I really hope that MW3 will be something special to buy and won't be like MW2 player wise, (ie: spawn location failures and the way people camp, that one it's really a game production thing though).
Let me know what you guys would want to see in Modern Warfare 3 because all I know I want to see is something really new, like some really original maps and maybe even a "made-up" or a fake gun or two but not too powerful and something that doesn't require TOO MUCH imagination. Lol, I just hope it will be worth my money and they will also fix the sniper hit-marker failures

Yeah I use to think the same thing but they are always about a year apart hence pattern they have created since CoD4:MW-Present.
Like I said, it might be planned for some time in 2011 and if you haven't noticed, all of the CoD's since CoD4:MW have been released between the 9th and 11th of November so I am guessing it might be released sometime in November of 2011.
