IW has been AFK since a couple weeks before Christmas and Activision oversaw the merger with CW. Title's been from that time on in a lame-duck state with very interesting albeit unimplemented additions datamined (WPNs, Soap) and then playlist rotation calls every week being near atrocious. Shoot the Ship or a 24/7 permutation is at a minimum a must; whether for the interim or indefinitely, your loyal playerbase earned it. There was, or is, a rumour that publisher requested of IW they let there be a window of transition for CoD players to switch to or at least test-drive newer instalment CW, so there's conceivably something to how uncharacteristically downshifted everything feels ATM when IW knows their players. I don't think IW even again sees the reins until 2022-2023 as Raven is next up, iirc, after a falling out with Sledgehammer so MW hardliners need be left with...something.
