Wait... What?
Multiable takes are being taken right now.
Why do game titles have to be so absurd nowadays?

When will they do Call of Duty: Ancient Warfare
how on earth do you even hire people so retarded at marketing that they're afraid of the sequel number and just make things more confusing for everyone
there's no way this won't affect sales after literally selling CoD4:MWR just a couple years ago.
At this point it'd be more surprising if they named it with something saner
People might smarten up and realize how many of these games have been shat out in the past several years
Then again that hasn't stopped FIFA, Madden or NBA. They should name the CoD titles with their year tbh.
To put some perspective if we only count the main consoles and PC releases, there have been 19 CoD games released up to this point. If they were following the number designation before the title it would look like "Call of Duty 20: Modern Warfare"
What kind of drugs were the marketing team smoking?
At least make the name all tacticool or something: "Warfare Mod 4" or something.
I get the feeling that out of the two games, CoD4 will end up being the better game.
Darn I was looking forward to Modern Warfare IIII
At least we can all look forward to Black Ops IIIII
CoD4 will always remain the better game
Part of me just want them to suddenly name it as Black Ops 5 just to be funny and inconsistent when the rest of the Blops games are I, II, III, and IIII, then have the next entry after that be Blops VI
These idiots disgust me to the core, they absolutely disgust me
Fuck I might get a Call of Duty: Medieval Warfare that's about the Norman invasion of England if they made it.
They know exactly what they're doing and why they're doing it: search engine optimization
That the call of duty games are yearly made to sell a ton and be forgotten in favor of the next one shouldn't surprise anyone but it's pretty funny that they've become so upfront about it
I was just reminded of the opening paragraph of Yahtzee's review of Mortal Kombat from 2011.

I really wish the marketing departments across the world would stop doing this shit, I mean hell just putting a colon and Resurrection on the end of the title is more creative than this.

This isn't someone not saying this a dumb title, it's someone who thinks is so good they won't let someone tell them it's dumb.
I can't wait for the upcoming sequels
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2020)
Call of Duty 3: Black Ops (2021)
Call of Duty: 4 (2022)
Call of Duty V: Black Ops 2 (2023)
Call of Duty IIIIX: Modern Warfare 3 (2024)
Call of Duty Ten: One (2025)
The Call of Duty (2026)
Call of duty: Warmungandr
It really feels like the last few years they have no idea where to go with this series anymore, and I'm not sure going back to modern-day is going to help it any. I thought CoD WW2 was decent and Infinite Warfare was outstanding (well, the campaign anyway), but Black Ops 4 was basically half a game.
Also where's my Modern Warfare 2 & 3 remastered?
The devs just forgot to look up what the previous games were on wikipedia and realized too late
But even then, they took the '4' out when they remastered it. It was just Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered.
Oh who am I kidding, anything to make the caffeine-addled focus group teen boys actually sit still and gawp.
"Duuurrrrrr recog-og-nize thhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAT?' they moan, as they jerkily rise from their chairs. Dropping their DualShock4s and open cans of Monster Energy to the ground (the drink flowing lazily out of the sideways cans and irrevocably coating the controllers in sticky residue that will never wash off) they lurch, lumberingly, forward towards the Recognizable Gamer Brand™ displayed on-screen in front of them. Suddenly, their progress is halted as jutting brow ridges all simultaneously collide with the television set with a soft bump. It takes a moment for their slouched gaits to actually fall to the same stop as the nerve signals reach their legs. The Prestigious Intellectual Property® on display now only an inch away from all their eyes, a low, rolling guffaw is emitted from the boys, interspersed with quiet mumblings of vapid remarks like "epic" and "leet", while their hands absentmindedly reach into their pockets for their flagship smartphones to fumble similar such nothings into their preferred Discord servers. The novel stimulus now wearing off, the gamers gradually lose interest and within a minute, all collapse where they stand, unmoving. Their parents will arrive within the hour and lure the gamers back out to their cars via smartphones set to rapidly-flashing images of the gamers' favored eAthletes™.
Satisfied at the result, a few pale, besuited vampires watching behind a nearby one-way window all jot contentedly at their clipboards and nod at each other affirmatively. Nothing is said as nothing needs to be said, the procedure now flawlessly refined and efficient after years of repetition: it's obvious that the micro-revenue delivery channel will be sufficient for this fiscal year as well. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019), its season pass, and its battle pass are now set to release this holiday season. The shareholders will be pleased.

Call of Duty IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII: Modern Warfare
Great, now tell me how much "old school" and "boots on the group" and other BS terms to sell your creatively dead game when you can't even bother to make a new subtitle
