I am sure that dedicated servers will return for the next COD. They only problem is they will come with a subscription model.

What tipe of subscritopn model? Casn u xplain how that works?

Sure, you buy the game and pay a monthly fee to Activision to play online.  The current retail model doesn't work for games any longer due to rentals and pirates. Moving to a subscription based model would allow the publisher to gain revenue from these people.  It's the Warcraft model for other genres.  

Are these your own speculations though (and maybe some industry speculation and analysis)?

Because Ive never heard any concrete plans about this so far.
