"just to make the oldschool anouncement bigger"

I doubt that the general consensus on the next CoD game is that everyone wants an old school theme. Future is pretty much dominant for the time being, especially as most past conflicts that can be made into a good game have already been covered.

And no, I don't expect them to give up on the future anytime soon, at least for a few years.
