I'm sorry can someone tell me if this is someone with any legit credibility.

Because an account that just started tweeting 10 days ago only about this doesn't scream real to me.
I want to know how OP found the account since they only had 88 followers when OP posted the thread. Their tweets have very little interaction, so who is sharing this?

There are more weekly next COD rumors then there is members on this site, chances of this being true are very low. One day someone will leak something true but most likely not this time.

That is what I'm really wondering. Are we already abandoning Price/Gaz/Alex/Farah and the reboot storyline? I hope not. They had something really good going with those characters.

Probably not, I imagine this picks back up where MW Season 6 ended (with the Verdansk-Zombie-Nuke stuff being maybe mentioned off hand) but more just continue it's own thing. Pretty sure Price/Gaz/Alex/Farah/Soap/Ghost is 141 of the Reboot.

Though I wonder if Black Ops 2 stuff will start to show up in this since this will be taking place 3 years before that (assuming BO2 remains canon).

sounds neat, i'm taking a break from COD this year since the franchise feels like its in quicksand, i'd welcome any big shakeups. 2022 seems a little short, i wonder if it would get pushed out to 2023.

This all sounds terrible. Guess that will be another year of skipping cod. Why can't they just give us Black Ops 2 Remake, heck id even take Advance Warfare 2 at this point. These games have become just soulless micro transaction trojan horses.

Why would this get pushed out to 2023?

weren't most of the previous games split between 3 studios, so 3 year cycles? If they are doing a lot of hiring now it seems a bit insane that it'll be less than 10 months to deliver a huge game. I guess i don't know if the hiring happened already in the past year or if its an ongoing thing to staff up now.

Yeah, Infinity Ward has been working on this since end of 2019. So this game has had a the regular 3 year dev cycle.

IW and Sledgehammer have both opened up new extra studios (AFAIK) and have begun hiring like mad.

Plus Activision will never EVER let a CoD get delayed to the next year, they'd shutter the company first lol

Well, if they're going go all in on the Latin America setting here's hoping it works out way better than the trainwreck that was Ghosts's campaign?

I probably missed something, but why would they call new Call of Duty games Modern Warfare and now Modern Warfare II when there are already a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2?

Why go out of your way to purposely make your titling as confusing as possible? Until this thread I always thought that the Modern Warfare of 2019 was a remake of the first one.

Then I wonder how they'll handle it.

Deathloop has gun jamming but only on the trash tier weapons you pick off regular people. Anything even a tier higher will never jam... making the mechanic kinda useless.

Unsure but Infinite Warfare had a "Specialist" difficulty you could unlock that added a bunch of new gameplay elements to the campaign to make it more realistic (as much as it could be in regards to it's sci-fi setting). It was actually pretty cool.

Cause the name Modern Warfare II will sell and we'll have have to get used to either writing MW2(2022) or knowing that if you use a roman numerial you're talking about the 2022 game, otherwise the original MW2.

Also the new Modern Warfare stuff is part of the Black Ops timeline, while it does have stuff from CoD4 in it (All Ghille Up for example happened somewhat similar and characters returning) but otherwise was it's own thing.

I absolutely loved MW 2019, I can't wait to see what Infinity Ward is cooking up. They might have had rough times, but they're in a whole other league compared to Treyarch and Sledgehammer now.

They don't need to try crap like gun jamming unless they're going full Arma/Squad milsim, and I know they aren't.

Sounds exciting! Skipping Vanguard because I don't like WW2 stuff, but this will bring me back day1.

Bring back more spectacle and set pieces, and also fun sections like undwrwater and snowmobile shootouts.

Can we not with gun jamming? Horrible in games.

Most annoying shit in Tarkov.

Haven't played a COD game in ages, but this had me intrigued and potentially going back to it. I'll keep this tagged for how accurate the game mechanics become over time

MW2019 was the last CoD I brought and I still play it.

Looking forward to having the king return.

I bet the gun jamming thing will be campaign exclusive if they bring that realism mode from Infinite Warfare back, nothing to get too worked up about.

I wonder if they even bother to acknowledge the timeline merge thing and all the warzone and zombies shenanigans. That always seemed to be a Sony MCU swearing up and down it's part of the Disney MCU situation.

I've wanted a "horror" focused mode besides zombies in CoD for years. Hope that part is true but I have doubts.

Also, I think CoD has a budget higher than 150m by now. That was reported to be the marketing budget back for MW2. I'd have to imagine the budget has increased quite a bit.

i kinda was hoping for a ww3 settings like the first mw2 had but call of duty: sicario sounds intense too. definitely more interesting than whatever vanguard is trying to be. infinity ward are the only ones keeping the cod franchise interesting to me.

I'll probably be ready for a new CoD in a year, haven't bothered with any since 2019.

What the hell does PT inspired mean ?
