Call of Duty now on three year development cycle

3.9
Activision has released that it will be moving the CoD series to a three year development cycle instead of two.

While this still means a new CoD entry each year it *should* allow much more time for the respective devs to fully develop their CoD. One would imagine their hope in this strategy change is to foster more innovation while allowing further care of previously released games in the form of better crafted DLC.


"Sledgehammer is a triple-A studio built from the ground-up around prudent talent with a 90-plus-rated pedigree both in studio leadership and throughout the organization.

They demonstrated their skill on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and on their past high-rated games. They're the perfect choice to support our new approach and bring fresh ideas and creativity to this great franchise, and to raise the bar for next-gen games overall.


-Activision Publishing president and CEO Eric Hirshberg

They need to release a new W@W or like a call of duty set in an older time. I miss bouncing betty's and all the good old stuff. Anyone else agree?

Not getting the next one unless it has zombies.

Ghosts was absolute garbage and a complete rip off.
Anyone who still plays Ghosts obviously never played an Actual COD game.

Now all CODS are crap.
Even the older ones because of mods.

Thank god, hopefully this will make it to where all the games are not practically the same and we don't have to waste $60 every year.

Ages so no Zombies till 2015? or 2014?

Actually sledgehammer does the MW, Ghosts series. Trayarch does the other series with zombies. So no worries man.

iburnleyJTAG we might actually get a game worth playing now... no more hacked leaderboards weeks before release or stupid spawns... MW2 was the best but each game is ok i suppose, if they changed it up too much people would not buy it... the ease of playing and the familiar feel is what sells cod every year.. with cod you are assured of a playable game that appeals to all ages


Can't guarantee no hacks by any means.
