I actually liked MW3 quite a bit, so I have no complaints on that front.

I think this is a good decision in the long run. I wouldn't be surprised if the first game is sub-par, but I don't expect it. They are a rookie studio, but so was Infinity Ward when they made the first Call of Duty, and you can see where that's gone.

And, just another note, unlike the majority I rather like Infinity Ward's games. With the exception of zombies mode, IW's games are my favorite ones in the series (better campaigns, better multiplayer, especially the multiplayer maps).
