Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s Version of No Russian Has One Huge Downside

The Call of Duty franchise is no stranger to controversy, whether it’s Call of Duty: WW2‘s loot boxes, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4‘s lack of a campaign, or Call of Duty‘s annual release schedule. But very rarely, these controversies actually stem from content within a Call of Duty game, and more often than not, they revolve around the context and content of specific single-player missions. From the original Modern Warfare‘s nuke mission, to seeing a dead child in the 2019 reboot, there have been plenty of controversial Call of Duty missions, but none of those have been as widely publicized as Modern Warfare 2‘s No Russian mission, which Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 takes inspiration from.
