No one is asking for coding anymore.

It's similar to comparing Metal Gear Solid to the Syphon Filter series, thanks for the note!
I believe the most recent Call of Duty title I was genuinely excited about was Call of Duty 2 in 2005. Still, while it might be intriguing, I don't think the number of negative reactions to the trailer truly matters. To assume otherwise would need a large group of people to collectively decide to stop buying it. In reality, the gaming world operates differently. Despite the online backlash, countless players will still purchase it. Likely even those who dislike it in general. Probably many more will be frustrated by the way CoD 4 was remastered. Few gamers exhibit the self-control to act on their opinions, so publishers understand better not to worry about trailer reception. They’re likely confident they won’t need to adjust their strategies. Pre-orders already suggest a decent level of interest.
They both delay their releases until autumn. The tension with the pitchforks eases over time, and folks quickly move past previous errors. Both CoD titles and Battlefield 1 are expected to perform well, likely setting new sales benchmarks. My focus is mainly on the new CoD project thanks to the Modern Warfare remake, but I’m wary of spending $80. I suspect they’ll eventually launch it separately, though it might still cost around $60. Battlefield 1 offers a more engaging setting, but I’ve always found the gameplay mechanics in that mode a bit slow and odd, even on my PC with MxK. All I truly want is Squadron 42.
I'm not really into the recent updates since I was tired of the series, but I'm excited to try a new CoD game. Being from Infinity Ward makes me prefer their releases, while Treyarch's style feels a bit different. Their visuals, maps, and weapon feel don't quite match up with what I like about the IW titles.
I believe the issue lies with the trailers; it's hard to gauge the true quality of these games. We can only make assumptions about how players will respond. Battlefield 1: The trailer conveys familiarity—even with the music—but feels outdated. Revisiting WWI has been done before, which makes sense for a fan of the series. However, the visuals don’t impress much, so why would anyone enjoy it? Fans of the franchise won’t connect with earlier titles, and new or casual players might not find the trailer compelling. In short, there’s no certainty about the game’s reception, but the trailer seems to hinder expectations. On the other hand, it’s tough to predict if COD will disappear anytime soon; they’ll likely keep releasing more titles.
