Call of Duty To Return Back To its Original Format
Activision & Blizzard presented their annual figures, and made the claim that Call of Duty Series will be returning to its toots. The space warfare theme did not increase their sales. Hence the game will be going back to its original design.
This already will be effective for this years release of COD. The latest in the series Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare has (as you guys know) a science fiction setting while large competitor Battlefield selected just for a setting in the First World War. BF1 struck gold, COD simply did not. Infinite Warfare performed less well compared to titles like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops -games. How and what the new COD will be like remains unknown as Activision did not share any further details.

Haven't bothered with COD much at all since MW2. Battlefield series is where it's at for me.

I think you mean roots. Otherwise this game will become a smelly mess.

You knew this before you even launched the game you f@cks.. Nobody wanted space warfare, they wanted something similar to the world wars as a timestamp. That's why Battlefield 1 stole all the fire from under your a$ses.
This feels similar to what's happened to DX:MD. Squenix segmented the story into DLCs and implemented microtransactions in a single-player game (!) and were wondering why the game didn't meet projected sales figures. The fck?
For real, sometimes I think these big corporations are run by a bunch of retards with no actual clue about what's going on around them.

It seems that customers are the greatest hurdles to any kind of innovation these days.
