Captain Price Actor Thanks Fans as MW4 Campaign Wins Praise

Have you ever finished a game campaign and immediately wanted to tell everyone about it—but also wanted to protect your friends from spoilers? That's exactly the vibe around Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 right now, and Captain Price himself is weighing in.

Barry Sloane, the actor behind the iconic Task Force 141 leader, took to social media to respond to the flood of praise coming from early access players. "Thank you for all the kind words," he said. "I see them. I read them. And I am grateful." It's a classy move from the man who's become the face of the rebooted Modern Warfare saga.

The early buzz for MW4's story mode has been overwhelmingly positive. Fans are calling it one of the most "brutal" and "intense" campaigns the series has ever seen, with many saying it holds its own against classics like the original Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops. One Steam reviewer put it simply: "The MW4 campaign was a 10/10 for me, they made a good story and ended it. Damn near almost cried at the end LOL."

It's not just fans, either. Steam reviews are sitting at a "Very Positive" rating, and IGN gave the campaign an 8/10, with their reviewer saying it made them "feel something for the series again" and sent the reboot saga out "on a high note." That's a strong sendoff for a storyline Infinity Ward clearly wanted to end with a bang.

Of course, with early access comes the inevitable: spoilers. Untagged campaign spoilers have already started popping up across social feeds, and there's not much Activision can do about that. But Sloane used his message to make a simple request: "Remember, let's allow people to enjoy the game in their own time. No spoilers. Bravo 6 – Dark." If you've been dodging spoilers all week, you're not alone—and the Captain has your back.

For those eager to jump in, the campaign is out now for early access players. The DMZ mode drops Tuesday, October 20, and the full release follows on Friday, October 23, for PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer, it sounds like this one's worth experiencing unspoiled.
