It was absolutely insane that they decided to do it this way in the first place. It wasn't perfect before, but at least having multiple teams on rotation gave them some time to cook their own game.

But now Treyarch had to help with vanguard zombies (and also mw zombies I think?) while developing their own game, while also developing their own game for the next year

I've enjoyed playing cod since I was a kid but this shit has been a clown fest for years now

    Problem is, Treyarch were the only competent studio after all of IW left. So they have been constantly called in to help to clean up the mess the other studios keep making.

    Now development on the games is split across Activision studios all over the world, so the chance of there ever being a coherent self contained experience again is basically zero. Their scope got too big and they couldnt find the right people to take it on.
