Yeah... 4 GB of VRAM. Nice one!
I dare say if you use lower antialiasing settings that it will drop back to 3 GB. There's no doubt some settings that can (hopefully) be tweaked that will allow no drop in quality but save a crap load of video memory. Sometimes it seems they set some settings too high that don't improve things visually and takes up lots of resources, whilst at the same time have some settings set quite low and raising them will have little impact on performance and resources whilst having noticeable affects visually.

Seeing that gtx 970's are out of stock all the time I bet the number of those people are much much larger.
Yep, I waited for over 3 weeks to get mine gtx 970 and have to wait another two months to get another one, they are all out of stock at the moment. But hey you can get all the gtx 980 you want, they are all full stock

Even less, if you refuse to use any aa, the vram usage will drop below 2gb.

It is true that Evil Within and Mordor had some pretty over the top specs.
But think about this for a moment.
We are getting FOV slider as well which can be increased to 90* so that is more screen to render.
Plus it has been proven time and time again that consoles to achieve 1080p 60fps have to use some weird form of upscaling to achieve the resolution.
It was used in Killzone Shadow Fall where they would cache pixels that were already rendered in previous frames to fill in the gaps and render the next frame.
I am sure this is how COD:AW is doing it as well, as the series is known for 60fps.
So on PC we are getting proper 1080p+ resolution, dedicated servers, choice of controls, fov slider, some reasonable needed specs (minus the 4GB VRAM), all they need to do now is enable mod support from the get go and they have me sold. It wouldn't be too hard to add this to the Steam Mod Community page and let the community go nuts.
It could work as well, as they could just release the multiplayer DLC on consoles and Single Player DLC on both console and PC. As we could be making out own game modes, maps, servers, etc.
This won't happen I know but so far they seem to be doing literally everything right for me so far and I haven't enjoyed a COD game since Black Ops 1.

Yes it is but they are lazy like that
That's just obtuse from devs, "next gen" consoles do have 8 gigs of ram, but it's a unified ram, that means they use at least 2 gigs of ram for the background tasks and console specific system software and all the remaining avaialble ram they generally use for the game.
