Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer’s only public showing this year was at the Call of Duty: XP event held in Los Angeles this past September. Â When put to the test of 1000’s, Â the game held up well according to many accounts from the journalists that attended the showing and the representatives of Sledgehammer and Infinity Ward.
Glen Schofield, co-founder of Sledgehammer Games, is very confident in the talents of his studio and Infinity Ward in preparing the next Call of Duty game for it’s November 8th launch. Â Obviously having his eye on the competition is part of Schofield’s job. Â The developer recently pointed out that he hasn’t seen the type of bugs in Modern Warfare 3 that he has been seeing “elsewhere”, alluding to Battlefield 3’s MP beta.
While one fan pointed out to Schofield:
http://t.co/sHIreP1W over 8 million testers.. now that is a stress test, not just over a thousand like XP. @GlenSchofield #BF3

And Schofield responded:
Schofield who was also in the news earlier this week for lashing out a critics of the Call of Duty: Engine, claimed that they really have no idea about this latest game.
Hopefully, Modern Warfare 3 doesn’t fall victim to the same problems that have plagued previous releases with multiplayer breaking bugs that ruin the fun for everyone. Â Since the 1000 testers at Call of Duty XP didn’t find any problems, we’ll see in just a couple weeks whether this holds true. Â Needless to say, Infinity Ward has always been on top of their game when it comes to fixing problems that arise in the multiplayer of Call of Duty games. Â Mark Rubin of Infinity Ward also recently noted that the developer has also implemented a new system to fix some issues that arise on the fly.
