Activision opted not to reveal any details on this year's Call of Duty release during its investors conference call yesterday, as some expected. Instead, it looks as if the game will be revealed through a combination of E3 and a magazine reveal; Activision said details on the series' future would be forthcoming in the "coming weeks."
Kotaku claims this year's game will be Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, as has been assumed for some time now. Sources have indicated to them that MW3 will continue the story set up in the previous two Modern Warfare titles and will possibly bring back characters such as Soap MacTavish and Captain Price. The game is also said to feature a "much larger, epic scale" as the potential for World War III looms on the horizon.
One of they key changes will be in the game's "large, urban destructible environments" that sound more like what you'd expect from the newest Battlefield than Call of Duty. Battlefield 3 will, like its most recent predecessors, feature destructible environments, so if true this will put the two games on more even footing as far as that aspect of things goes.

Don't make me get semi-excited.

As long as they don't turn it into Battlefield this could be good news... maybe.

Sadly, this is how any discussion for upcoming COD game goes. Early on they tease us with upgrades or new features that get us all excited. Then once the game is actually released it's chock full of bugs and exploits.

For me, the series is unrecoverable. For me to be excited about it they'd have to go very old school - ditch steamworks, allow 100% customised servers, release mod tools and maybe even make it a bit noob-unfriendly etc. Oh and develop it on PC, for PC. If they want to port it to consoles fine.

Economics tells me that this will never happen, and for that reason... I'm out.

I feel kind of like how it is with cars... the good ones were the fun to drive, no gimmicks, no frills, and now they are few and far between.

Although I don't like BF, I do like the destructible environments thing. This time, I'm waiting. I'll probably end up getting it soon enough since I do enjoy playing Blops to an extent, but it won't get me really excited...
