The obvious plan for COD is fix the stability/performance issues. There is no point in fixing game play issues , or releasing a Sequel, until people can play the sim without crashing.
So what are the developers doing? Well they are building beta patches to fix the Stability/Performance issues, with a few gameplay fixes thrown in.
The next obvious plan would be to fix the game play issues. There is no point in releasing a Sequel unless the game play issues are fixed. We should see a few more beta patches concentrating on gameplay fixes with a few optimizations thrown in.
At some point, if these patches fix the performance and a number of gameplay issues the devs/publishers may feel comfortable enough that their customers might actually buy the Sequel. Its possible if they are under considerable financial duress, they could release the Sequel before all the gameplay issues are fixed. Then continue to fix the gameplay issues with patches as they continue to develop the rest of the series.
Its impossible to give a date, it will "always" be a "ready when its ready" situation. The good news is COD will always evolve with new features as you merge each Sequel, or add mod content. That said the development could shut down tomorrow. The developers are probably on pins and needles half expecting a pink slip any day.
