First things that ask for some extra attention:

  • No storyline co-op. multiplayer will have splitscreen just like CoD4
  • No singleplayer leveling like in the multiplayer in CoD4:MW
  • MacTavish a.k.a. Soap (CoD4) will be back as NPC
  • "Any good story is on rails" says Jason West -- good point...
    • The infinity spawn points and invisible line we all hated in the Call of Duty series is being worked on
  • Singleplayer storyline will be around 6 - 10 hours long
  • Next to the singleplayer there will be another option in the main screen that will be a major part of the game: The Special Forces. This will be a new gametype much like the awesome (and terrifying difficult on veteran) Mile High Club epiloque on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. The Special Forces gametype will hold all the missions that don't fit into the singleplayer storyline. They can't say how much episodes it will hold because Infinity Ward is still working hard om them.
