The performance/sales of COD were certainly not good, and doubtfully covered the costs of the development so far. This is a long term investment that makes money from sales of a number of Theaters using the same game engine. If the devs get the game engine and features sorted before the release of the Sequel, everything should work out. Then its just a matter of pumping out new maps, aircraft, and campaigns, with a few new features thrown in. The game engine was originally designed for more than one type of revenue stream, and the annoucement should make it clearer which direction or directions they are going with the development. The series including the COD map and missions should only get better as features are fixed and added, community mods are built, and average computers become more powerful.
