In most multiplayer first-person shooters, you’re able to perform a finishing move or execution on an enemy, including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Here’s how you can do a finisher in MW3.
How to do a finishing move in Modern Warfare 3
To perform a finishing move in MW3,stand behind an enemy and hold down the melee button. While tapping the melee input allows you gunbutt the opponent, holding it will trigger a short animation of you executing them. The default keybind for melee isEon PC, and on a controller, you need to press theRight Stick.
Keep in mind that your finishing move can be stopped midway if an enemy shoots you, or if your teammates shoot the operator you’re executing. There are a variety of different styles of finishers that you’re able to unlock via cosmetic bundles and battle passes. Each finisher has a different animation for all three stances the enemy could be in: standing, prone, or downed. Executions can be done in-game just for fun or to complete certainchallenges.
