They kinda did some stuff in Seasons 1 & 3 of MWIII Warzone, but they didn’t really continue this story much at all. They pretty much just boil down to “Nolan escaped & Makarov’s doing some more shit involving Rebirth Island or whatever”. The rest of the MWIII Warzone cutscenes were just selling the Battle Passes & bundles. But yeah, it’s mostly the campaign & Zombies that garnered hate for MWIII. The MP got some at first, but I feel like it’s become loved bc of the post-launch support Sledgehammer gave the MP. So we’re pretty much just waiting for MWIV to see where this story is going, if there is any semblance of a plan… Some have speculated that they essentially took a bunch of missions intended for COD 2026 & dumped them into MWIII to justify the full price. I don’t believe that, but I don’t blame people for doing so. And yeah, I agree that Soap’s death here was poorly handled. It should’ve been Gaz who died in this campaign instead of Soap. At least he had a great arc in MW19 to get us invested in him…
