Trophy Guide and List of Achievements

Finishing on Veteran Grants the 141 Ready Achievement

141 Ready G: 90

Complete the campaign on Veteran

Beating the Modern Warfare 3 campaign on Veteran difficulty will reward you with a special achievement called 141 Ready. While it doesn't offer any in-game benefits, it does give you bragging rights for completing the campaign on one of the hardest difficulties available.

Realism Difficulty is Not in MW3

In Modern Warfare 2, the Realism difficulty = was unlocked by completing the entire campaign once. The option for this difficulty is not available in Modern Warfare 3 even after you complete the Campaign, making Veteran the hardest difficulty in the game.

How Long is the MW3 Campaign?

Campaign Length Between 3 to 10 Hours Based on Difficulty

If playing on Recruit or Regular Difficulty, you can expect to finish the MW3 Campaign in around 3 to 4 Hours. Naturally, this is you making a beeline for mission objectives without completing the side content featured in the Open Combat Missions.

When playing on Veteran, expect to die a lot. Since you'll be memorizing enemy movements between each death, campaign completion on this difficulty clocks in at around 10 Hours. Hardened will be a bit more forgiving at 6 hours for completion.

If you're gunning to get the Achievements related to Open Combat Mission Completion, then you'll be adding a good ~30 minutes to each of the 6 Open Combat Missions in the campaign.
