Former Call of Duty 4 and MW2 lead designer rejoins Infinity Ward

4.7
It looks like former Call of Duty lead designer Todd Alderman has returned to Activision's Infinity Ward studio. You may recall that Alderman was one of 38 members of the "Infinity Ward Employee Group" who sued Activision in early 2010 for $75 - $125 million for unpaid bonuses the group claimed it was owed for work on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

Alderman later joined Infinity Ward co-founders Jason West and Vince Zampella at their new studio, Titanfall maker Respawn. Alderman left the studio in 2012. His most recent stint was as a designer at League of Legends maker Riot Games.

according to a Polygon report, Alderman has rejoined Infinity Ward as its new project director and all the ill will between him and Activision has dissipated.

Alderman was lead designer on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 and left the company in 2010. Shortly thereafter he joined the then-newly formed Respawn Entertainment.

Could it be a remaster of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2? A petition to remake the fan-favorite CoD game recently gained a lot of traction on change.org, but unfortunately fan petitions don't always make it to the top of management, even if the number of signatures now exceeds 160,000.

Ooh a new mw2 would be crazy awesome! As long as they dont add a new "twist" to it to ruin it

I'm really hoping this is in connection to the remakes, A cod4 remake would be absolutely amazing.

Hope this is signs of the Remakes but if not at least there will be some better people working on the maps

Thank god all post MW2 IW maps suck very little movement pattern, terrible spawns and bad placement for objectives. I'm glad they are getting a OG in there but IW are dead and gone and COD is on the verge of it. The only way I see myself actually spending a lot of time on a new COD game is if it is a remastered COD 4 or Black Ops 1
