When Will It Die?

Okay so we all heard the news that in the future the Call of Duty title will be dropped and we'll be left with Modern Warfare and World at War running a two different franchises, hand in hand.

So I was wondering when do we think this game will lose it's popularity? When Modern Warfare 2 comes out will this game die? Or will it's fans remain loyal?

I'm not entirely sure if a World at War 2 is confirmed? If so when is it due for release?

I'm starting to invest a lot of time into this game and I'd like to feel that it'll always have an online community, but we know eventually this game will lose it's popularity.

So I put it to you; when will this game die?
    -When Modern Warfare 2 is released?, When World at War 2 is released? Just eventually through time? Or will this game become an everlasting multiplayer platform?

re: When Will It Die?

This game has a while to live. Call of Duty 4 is going to suffer more when Modern Warfare 2 is released. People could be playing 4, but they're playing World at War. More WaW players will remain loyal to their game in the end.

Highly doubt that, have you seen MW2 yet? CoD4 and WaW online communities will shoot down the drain. The only people that will still be playin it are the ones that can't afford MW2 and the nonfanatics =/.

Of course I've seen it. I am just saying that I think that more players from COD4 will ditch COD4, than WaW players will ditch WaW.

They will, obviously, but maybe not initially. Everyone is going to get MW2 at Christmas. That's when the decreasements will be shocking.

re: When Will It Die?

I presuming that the two games will be released staggered one every other year ?

Anyway, I won't see them as different games, and I can't see why the game will suffer. As it stands I'm buying Modern Warfare, and I plan to buy every other WaW and MW after that. As already said, CoD 4 will suffer, as the reason the majority of people still play that is because they don't like the WW2 theme. But now that MW2 is just round the corner...

re: When Will It Die?

I personally believe that MW2 will initially steal the players from both CoD4 and 5, however CoD4 will be affected the most.

I think that after a while people will begin to favour MW2 or WaW1, leaving MW1 in a pile of disused and forgotten games.

Any release of WaW2 will definately decrease the popularity of WaW1. Unless number 2 is dreadfully useless.

I say Cod5 has at least 9 months left of good, decent fanbase.

re: When Will It Die?

of course MW1 will tank by November the 11th. IW should just dump the data from the COD4 servers and just add them to COD6' server bank. speed up connections and make the mass of fans happier.

Nazi Zombies will be the main, if not only reason why people will continue to play this game upon Modern Warfare 2's release.

When MW2 comes out, it will be the only COD/MW game worth playing.

Seeing as Modern Warfare 2 isn't out, it's extremely unlikely.

re: When Will It Die?

Wait. What is all this talk of World at War 2. We've already had six World War II games, why add another one just basing it as a sequel to a game that lacked any decent structure?

re: When Will It Die?

I think this game will live a few months after MW2 comes out but I am going to bet anything that every WaW player will switch to MW2 and play that more.
