All there games have been fooking awesome, so everyone expects this game to be 10x better than MW, and its its not then, it could be the last Cod game.

I think that's because Infinity Ward have fallen out with Treyarch, and want to disassociate their games from the Treyarch games. And as Modern Warfare was such a big hit, it makes marketing sense to maintain that subtitle.
There is a war brewing between an Infinity Ward employee and the senior producer of Call of Duty: World at War. The community manager for Infinity Ward had a few nasty things to say about the senior producer. Apparently, he is angry about the constant references being made about Call of Duty 4 in recent interviews.

Robert Bowling, community manager for Infinity Ward had some harsh criticism towards Noah Heller, the senior producer for Activision. Heller, is also the senior producer for Treyarch’s Call of Duty: World at War. Bowling, on his IAMfourzerotwo blog, criticized Heller on his recent interviews. Bowling rebuked Heller for making constant references to Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty 4 and comparing it to Treyarch’s latest Call of Duty: World at War.

Apparently, Heller made some comments in a recent interview where he criticized past Call of Duty games for not having accurate weapons damage.

According to Bowling, Heller made this comment in a recent CVG interview:

“In the previous Call of Duties it might take three or four shots from a bolt action rifle,” he explained. “We made sure that a single shot center mass would kill that opponent because that’s the expectation of the player.”

In response to that comment, Bowling states:

WTF are you talking about?! “in previous Call of Dutys blah blah blah”. First of all, you didn’t work on “previous Call of Dutys”, so don’t talk as if you’re down with how / why things were designed the way they were. Second, you’re completely f****** wrong.

Bolt Action rifles are one hit kills in every Call of Duty we (Infinity Ward) made!!

Bowling also commented that Heller should stop talking about Infinity Ward’s game and talk more about Treyarch’s game. Bowling then goes on to call Heller a “Senior Super Douche Noah Heller.” It is not known if these comments were made in jest, or if there is animosity between the two.

A commenter on the blog remarked that Bowling should take it up quietly with the boss instead of ranting about it on a public site. Surprisingly, Bowling responded back by stating, “Trust me, this frustration comes only after repeated requests throughout their entire marketing campaign.”

It seems as though there definitely might be some friction going on between the two in regards to the marketing campaign. It is also interesting to note that in Bowling’s profile it states “Douchebags” as one of the “Things I hate.” I wonder how Bowling feels about Heller?

LOL, Modern Warfare alone suits the title for the game better IMO.

WaW is a very good game the only problem was the WW2 theme, if it was a modern game then it would be No1

There was another problem with it. The one that caused me to trade it back in...

CoD4 gives higher ranked players MORE guns and perk options.
CoD5 gives higher ranked players BETTER guns and perk options.

Infinity Ward got it right, Treyarch fucked it up.

Not to mention that dogs are way more annoying and shit compared to the gunship for a 7 kill streak.

treyarch made a realistic game. MW the guns are boring and take no skill to use, WaW all the guns take time a skill to use, and the prestige's are much better.

Balancing > Realism any day and twice on Sundays.

My first impression of CoD4 online was "wow" and for CoD5 it was "meh". With so many games to be played, that is a deal breaker.

Do you think Battlefield would be improved if none of the guns other than a sniper could hit anything more than 15 feet away? And if you could only get sniper guns after enduring 20 levels of getting owned by them?

I don't.
