Kotick says a massively playable version of the shooter would be a ‘natural evolution’ for the series
Speaking at the Morgan Stanley Technology Conference in California, Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has spoken of his firm’s newfound MMO ambitions following its merger with Blizzard-owning publisher Vivendi-owned.
After again stating that it would take a huge financial effort to usurp World of Warcraft from its global MMO throne, Gamespot reports that Kotick then went on to discuss a possible online future for Call of Duty:

if its going to be anything like warcraft - forget it! 'Run to field, kill 10 soldiers'...repeat until totally bored.
We just want them to continue the brilliant series but not as an MMO

I think this would be great sideline to the FPS that already exists but as a replacement, I'm not so sure.....
