User blog comment:Argorrath/Activision confirms next Call of Duty for this year/@comment-2.25.49.174-20130209224409

assuming this year is IW's 'turn', are Infinity Ward allowed to go prior to the events of Modern Warfare? given the whole bust up that resulted in Treyarch needed permission to go past the Cold War era, was unsure if it works both ways?

anyway, I'd like to see IW's take on the Vietnam conflict. think COD 4 type missions in the 'Nam, the Marine mission being equal to a basic infantry squad search and destroy type missions, the SAS counterpart being something akin to LRRP or something Recondo-related. I was pumped for Black Ops Vietnam campaign and then bitterly dissapointed when it turned out to be a mishmash of Fight Club and a Uwe Boll movie. at least if IW took a COD 4 approach to Vietnam they could pay homage to Tour of Duty, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket and We Were Soldiers and keep an interesting yet grounded story.
