I want to know other peoples' ideas but I wrote my ideas about how activision should make a better call of duty Idea 1: Make the missions Longer As we all know that in war some battles go on for days without end, like trench warfare. In the next call of duty, the missions should be at least 2-3 hours and make them more harder(like in real war) and there should be trench warfare where your team can camp and you can either guard the place or help your team with the camping grounds. Idea 2: The AI problem Call of Duty series AI, i can say is ok but not very good. Some missions will have players experiencing very strong enemies and very incooperative team mates, I had this experience in Cod 5 where, my team mates just stand there while I was outnumbered by like 50 Japs. They simply don't move and even when they stand in front of my, the enemies just deliberately choose to shoot me and my teammate arent even helping! The AI should be fixed but overall, in cod series, its still ok. Idea 3: More wider story line All of us know the countries that has involved in WWII, of course USSR, US, British, Germans, Japs and the Chinese. However, activsion have always exagerated the power of the US. In most missions you play as the US and in all the cod series including Cod 4, there goes again : the US! What activision's "obsession" with the US is unknown but shouldn't there be more wider story line where you can play as the Chinese, the Polish Army or even Jew Resistance Forces. Believe me, players will like call of duty better when you get to play as the Chinese fighting the Japanese and Jewish Resistance secretly attacking the Nazi forces. Can you imagine a mission where your the Chinese and your defending your village from Japanese forces or when your a Jewish Resistance at night, fighting the persuing Nazis and running away from them at the same time to a specific hideout? The game would of course be more and more popular as it adds color the War. Idea 4: Not all missions are won In war of course, not all mission are won, some require retreat and some require advance of an army. In call of duty, they should make it so that some missions make you retreat and you have to defend a point for some time for the mission to be won. This will immediately get the attention of all gamers as most fps game missions are just won and not lost. Idea 5: Vehicles Matter! A wider aspect of the war should be added to the call of duty games, like battlefield games, there should be vehicles in the game which the player can ride on at any time. Idea 6: Reality Matters (too!) The game needed more reality, for example day and night should be added when you fight a battle for too long and they should make it so the enemy can run out of ammo and retreats. Also in cod5 Tank mission where you man a T34 tank, they should make it so that the other tanks help you and you have to follow their advance. Another thing that has to be added is the damage, some sandbags should be fragile and you can blow them up with a powerful grenade and a panzerfaust. Idea 7: Free Roam Call of Duty should add free roam where your in a battle and missions come and you can choose to do it or not. And they should make ranks in the Single player game where you can be sergeant and command a squad and choose whether to do your mission Idea 8: The inventory tool Cod should make it so that you get to choose what weapons you want to carry for the battle (for single player of course) and the weapons are unlocked through ranks and how many kills you have. Ok, that is all my ideas for now, I might post more but please post your ideas as well. :)

You should remember that CoD is an Arcade game rather than a sim. I can't see most happening.

idea 9.....cod games are cod games and not some kinda mutated sequels so leave them as they are, why would anyone change a very succesful games and lose their fans? Besides call of duty makes millions there is no need for any improvements...:)

I don't know why people expect Call of Duty games to be something that it is not and never will be.... i mean, it just doesn't seem smart to me. so i say let IW handle the real deal.

I think you will find in cod4 you do attack, defend and retreat on a level or 2

Idea 8: The inventory tool
Cod should make it so that you get to choose what weapons you want to carry for the battle (for single player of course) and the weapons are unlocked through ranks and how many kills you have.Type-98

Thats isnt a Call of Duty game then its meant to be arcady

Idea 7: Free Roam

Call of Duty should add free roam where your in a battle and missions come and you can choose to do it or not. And they should make ranks in the Single player game where you can be sergeant and command a squad and choose whether to do your mission Type-98

again while that would be cool it isnt what makes call of duty what it is, they have got better by opening the maps abit but to much and it wouldnt be cod

\ cod games should start to have a change while they still can. I'm talking about the WWII where they needed to change a bit more, cod 4 is ok but cod 5 (in my opinion) is just cod 2 with better graphics!

Making an inventory tool is not arcady because say your a sergeant who's going to a battle in 2 hours, you will really consider choosing which weapon and grenade so its actually making it more real. But free roam will also be useful, say your in free roam, there can be time lines. For example in the D-Day, there can be timelines like D-Day+1 and D-Day +2 and so on and free roam can allow players to explore the free environment of Normandy in France with a squad as well as facing the dangers of the Nazi Faction. It might not sound like call of duty but if they actually change their game basis, this will attract players.

I wouldn't mind having much of the same game play as COD4 in MW2 as long as its wrapped in a strong narrative, with some exciting set pieces. I am quite content with that. Multiple pathways would be a nice addition I guess. I don't think free roam would really work in a COD game as most of the time you are taking orders from other people. It would also hinder your scripted moments.

LOL how tedious would it be for a battle to go on for 3 hours?! Yes!! Keep going men! We've finally reached to top of the hi-- *Dies* You are Dead. You may reload your game, click on the exit button to return to your normal life or visit the Duty-Free store for all of your Call of Duty Related souvenirs. Purchase a stick on Captain Price Beard or why not have your photo taken with Soap as the perfect Christmas gift!!

CoD games are INTENDED to make you feel like part of a squad in actual battles. That's what I like about them. If you want something else, go find something else. Some people complain about scripted content but it is the scripted content that has the interesting content. There's something to be said about random, but I don't look for it in CoD.

Sounds like you should give the new Operation Flashpoint a go. I' certainly will.
