Most CoD players are leaving to play TES, for a couple of reasons. (I know, I play both).

1.TES: Magic. The main reason CoD players move. Magic adds a whole new element. It adds more action, a new fighting angle. Even if this isn't a players normal combat style it's great fun to burn a few enemies or bring enemies back from the dead to fight for you. CoD: World at War added this in campaign with it's Ray Gun, but in multiplayer it's only limited to the dogs which is a major reason players switch.

2.TES: Realism, the graphics of Skyrim are amazing, and they maintain this throughout the game. If you're in a killcam and you die you don't stay alive though the cinematic, you die. The health system is much easier as well, and the ambient sounds are amazing. CoD: CoD just doesn't have the same graphics, and unrealistically your body armour does very little compared to TES' armour plating, speaking of armour plating the Juggernaut suit is a full suit, unlike TES where it's only a cuirass.

3. TES: Inventory: It's great, you're walking along when you see a dragon, you can take out your bow and shoot it down, suddenly it lands and walks up to you, but it's fine because you can get out your sword and attach some poison to it, all in an instant. This flexibility is a major reason people are moving. CoD: Typical, in order to get a new combat load you need to be a new soldier, this is horrible, you'd think a soldier in such a small battlefield would have everything he needs in his backpack.

4. TES: Followers, make a huge difference, they follow you around and help you finish your objective, they're nearly everywhere as well, so any player can get one. Such player access makes the game that more enjoyable. CoD: CoD followers are horrible, when they get a kill the xp isn't even shared, and finding them is hard, in fact sometimes it's scripted for them to follow you, and often they get in your way, and use guns that don't match their skill set up.

OK, I know I matched a few things to Skyrim, but this is why BO added the Crossbow, and then MW3 added snow to the front cover, and now BOII is adding horses to the game. It's just CoD trying to keep up with games like TES.
