@Allison: There was an article about that in GameInformer a few months back.  Creating a females character means needing new animations and new skins, which is a ton of extra work.  They would have to double all their character design stuff.  It isn't about gender exclusivity so much as it is about costs. 
 
 
well... I responded before reading all the replies to your post.  Honestly, if they gave a company more time to work with a game rather than doing the Activ-Hustle and puking it out the door, I'm sure they would look to add features like females as well, but seeing how they are deadlined, I'm sure they are only making do with what they've got.

@swamplord666: 
 
I'm with you: Treyarch walks around like they created theater and indepth customization. They are many years late, but hey the milking must continue. Halo is a game where you can have an online career spanning many years (with very detailed stat tracking). Call of Duty? Well, there will be a new one every year for the sheep to migrate. 
 
I loved CoD4 - but they barely supported that game.

You asked a question, I answered it, sorry you don't like the answer. "
Sorry, but CoD is not a realistic shooter. You're telling me that people in the cold war ran around with clown ass facepaint and dice on their guns? yeah right. "
Multiplayer=the realistic aspects in a game
Not really and I also  don't think that the SP is realistic, but that's not so important for me.

Now it's a matter of time before players are killing each other with guns with a "Kotick's a dick" tag.

All the face paint and customization of the player looks stupid but all the other stuff seems pretty neat.

This looks good, but I guess in the end it's trivial. But nice a nice idea.

Fuck.  That actually looks pretty good.  I'm really not interested in playing the single player and I hated the multiplayer in World at War.  But should I?.... no I'll wait for a good sale and pick it up for £20 somewhere down the line instead,

They should have more realism in games. If you get shot you never respawn and will have to buy a new game just to play again.

Not to mention it almost doubles the amount of models and sound assets when you need a female version of everything..

Women STILL AREN'T allowed in any combat roles in the military? Are you retarded?  
  

"  Countries that allow this include New Zealand ,  Canada ,  Denmark ,  Finland ,  France , Germany ,  Norway ,  Israel ,  Sweden  

 and  Switzerland ." 
 
 Furthermore, I'm going to assume you are American as only an American would be this ignorant, but in fact in your own country women are allowed in "combat flying positions." Oh and to round it all off, as a bonus, have the fact that in Britain women can work in the Artillery too.

Without the COD name this game would be much more popular on various internet forums. People keep talking about how crap MW2 was, yet when I played the single player campaign I was hooked. Sure it isnt clever, but ill be damned if it isnt fun. Also the online got some flak (and I guess rightly so) due to the glitches, but so many comments online like "Man I got to 3rd Prestige and I had to stop, too many damn hacks." That's still a good 4(?) days of online play which seems like good value to me!
