I can't believe you get to play as a dog before you can play as a woman. This is an insult to women everywhere. Girl gamers are tired of playing as males. They can't a female protagonist. There are only a handful of popular games that feature female protagonist (Tomb Raider and Metroid come to mind).
I suggest everyone of you stop playing this repetitive game. It's the same thing every year. Maybe one or two new feature will be added. Wow! Fish interact with the player -- I can do this is Super Mario 64 and GTA: San Andreas. Is this all next gen gaming has to offer: intractable fish!?
The future is looking bleak. What will we do to change it?

Simple answer. Don't buy it.
Sorry, but games have to go with stereotypes. Whilst I appreciate that certain types of people are not represented, you have to understand that the general public's first vision when they think of the military is a male.
And what if you got a female as your protagonist in COD? You would just have a load of pre-pubescent teenagers getting horny and excited over an FPS.
Sorry

Women in the military is already a touchy subject for many people. I don't see why a major game company would just put them in if it's still a touchy subject.
It also could do with the story of the game. Some stories just work better with males or females. Since something major happened in America in the Ghosts story, then I am sure it may be men go into war while women stay home to raise kids. Could also just be the simple fact that there are more men than women in the military.
I also heard that it is difficult to make women characters. They have to look good while men characters have to just look at least average. Women make this game as well. That being said, maybe they didn't think women should be in it. Maybe someone pitched the idea, but it fell through. I think it's unfair to call them such things if even the women making the game are declining to put women in. If women come out on the company and start speaking against the company for it, then you would have room to think that way about them.
They are also adding dynamic destruction to multiplayer maps in the form of shockwaves and earthquakes. The fish thing was just to show what they did with the engine. In Mario 64, I didn't see whole schools of fish reacting to you. I only saw maybe ten tops. It's just something kind of cool that they added and that they wanted to show off. For a FPS like Call of Duty, what more can you really add to it? The maps need to stay intact for the most part, or you will just get everything destroyed and everyone sniping. They can't add vehicles, because that is just not how Call of Duty is. What is there left? No matter what they add anyway, people will just say they are copying something else.
I'm getting this game. It looks and sounds pretty amazing. Would it cool if they added females into the mix later on? Sure. I have zero problems with it, but there not be women shouldn't be a reason to not buy a game. Unless the company is found to being sexist and whatnot, then there is no point. It's just the way they intended the game to be. If you don't like Call of Duty, that is fine. I totally understand because I feel about the same towards Battlefield. The women argument just really has no grounds though.

Yeah, give another reason for 13 year olds to get sexist.
It will NEVER happen...
Oh and for the record, There is only 1 female soldier in Call of Duty 4 on-wards. And that was on Call of Duty 4. Do the mission for the U.S.M.C. where you start in the side of a helicopter in the middle of some middle-Eastern town. And then you get nuked at the end.
