Activision Faces Backlash as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Maps Removed Due to Spawning Issues

Activision has been forced to remove several multiplayer maps from Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 due to problematic spawn points that were causing chaos. Maps like Quarry, Rundown, Scrapyard, and Karachi have been pulled from playlists due to unfavorable spawns or players spawning alongside enemies. This comes after reports of the game being developed in a shorter timeframe than usual, leading to development crunch within the studio. The single-player campaign has also received criticism for being underbaked and rehashed.
