Studio head Mark Lamia says it's 'now a 100 per cent Call of Duty studio'.

In an interview with CVG (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=248863) , Lamia said his studio, currently completing Call Of Duty: Black Ops, has been focused on COD "for a long time now, long before any of [the Infinity Ward] events occurred."

"We focused all of our efforts on creating the best Call Of Duty game we possibly can and what that meant is not working on anything else. We are a multiple team studio and focusing on Call Of Duty and Call Of Duty gameplay meant focusing all of our teams on that."

It means, Lamia says, that Treyarch now has a dedicated multiplayer team.

The Santa Monica-based Activision subsidiary made its name making spin-off games from the Spider-Man films, before making Call of Duty 2: Big Red One in 2005, Call Of Duty 3 in 2006 and Call Of Duty: World At War in 2008. Its last non-COD games were 2007's Spider-Man 3 and 2008's Quantum Of Solace, which used COD4's engine.

ehh... i wish they would just make a new series. it's getting old now haha.

It is sort of a new series, its blackops, not MW or wwII. I know what you mean though. Im kind of interested in how they will make this. I really hope it doesn't turn into a Rainbow Six type game.

They should do a future based CoD game WITH FRICKIN LAZER BEAMS

CoD with Rail Guns..... oh my. As long as the next CoD doesnt try to incorporate Halo and Counterstrike into it. They need to just remake cod4, and update it with throwing knives, and the new Killstreaks. Then I will be happy. Or release 3 versions of the game: Single Player, Multiplayer (current matchmaking style), and tournament mode where people have their own servers to use, and the game settings can be changed as well as being able to physically hard disable certain perks/killstreaks etc. Make it totally open and customizable.

I was about to say the same thing. Good one Twig.

[Vengeance]

Are you suggesting I wasn't referring to cod4 promod and mw2 when I made that post? I was suggesting they merge the best parts of both games together to make their next MW (if they ever make another one).

[MrTwig]

eh, no?

Pro's and casuals will never mix man. I can picture BO to be a new world at war with new skins, a ****load of useless perks/titles/crap and stupid guns. Even if there are developer tools it will take a long time for the competitive community to settle on settings/weapons and get rid of all the **** they put into the game and strip the game down to nothing.
