Infinity Ward will work with Treyarch more in the future

4.1
According to the Official Xbox Magazine, Infinity Ward and Treyarch have had a rebellious tension the past couple years when it came to Call of Duty, and why wouldn’t they? Both studios should always strive to improve and out do the previous Call of Duty entry. However, with more and more new features shared between the studios like “Gun Game” and “One in the Chamber”, the the studios will finally band together more in the future according to Infinity Ward.

In the newest OXM issue hitting news stands this month, Robert Bowling said “I think there will always be a lot of communication back and forth. At the end of the day we are two different developers and we have different opinions about the games we make and the games they make. When we do something really great it would be good for theirs, and when they do something really great it would be good for ours, so I think you are going to see a lot more of that. We’re taking in feedback as a franchise as a whole, not just our individual iterations any more.”

He made similar remarks to NowGamer.com when he said “Every year, we have that challenge of looking at what the previous Call of Duty has done, and trying to learn from that and better our own game because of it. do the same thing with Treyarch games, and I hope that they do the same thing with our games.”

When asked about how Call of Duty should change during the leap to Xbox 720 he said “After any big project you sit down and decide where we want to go next,” Bowling commented, “and in that conversation we consider what new technology is going to be available to us, what restrictions no longer apply that were there in the past and what our resources are, so especially in a transitional period in our industry that’s also something we have to take in. Right now, we haven’t decided what our next move is as Infinity Ward, but we are going to be taking all of that to our next iteration.”

I lost all faith in IW ever since MW2... Until they start working with 3arc.
Now, 3arc knows what they're doing! Can't wait for Black Ops 2!

John_US They definitely have wide spread opinions and ideas so a game with them working together would be very interesting. But then again, being inidividualistic with there games is good also.

I second this, hopefully 2012's CoD is Treyarch/not IW 100%.

They are really two different games, ones more realistic and ones more of an arcade shooter. But if you want to go there.

I agree with you when you say that they are two very different games that fit different types of players. Ones more "realistic" for a FPS and the other one's sole purpose is for the player to have fun. I think that one is not better than the other, it's just the said gamer's opinion.

The game with the most players doesn't necessarily mean its better. Just means more people play it.
