Why didn't they make COD5 Modern Warfare?

Question

I don't know, I'm a bit sick o' WWII games.

Answer 1

COD5 is already being made, but it wont be modern. going back to their WWII roots.  

Answer 2

COD5 will be made by activision in the 4th quater  of 2009. what your thinking of is Call of duty World at war. its NOT Cod5

and Treyarch  just wants to make in WWII i guess

Answer 3

A WW1 game wouldn't be any fun. You'd stand up and get mowed down immediately.

But I think they should have a really realistic COD where you have Axis campaigns too. Iron sights only, ammo based on weapon caliber and not type. No health packs. Three or four people to a tank. Weapons overheat. Recoil. You know, the whole kit and kaboodle.  

Answer 4

I think CoD5 should be about WW1 and not WW2

Answer 5

WW2 games suck. Its better modern.

Answer 6

Because Activision decided to give it back to Treyarch.  

Answer 7

infinity ward made COD4 MW. they did not work on COD5. the core team has maintaned the WWII themed. if your looking for a great new game thats modern check out Farcry 2.

Answer 8

The reason why your sick of world war two games is because there fantasy's all they do is focus on the americans,russians and brits and not about the Polish soldiers the French soldiers ect and there's health pack every wear you go!
