Microsoft can easily buy the ip if it does well. It might be the new COD of next gen. I cant wait to play it :)

Why is Call of Duty popular?
1. It was innovative and unique in a time of WW2 era shooters and brought the genre into modern-day setting
   -Perks
   -Killstreaks
   -Amazing graphics for its time

2. Activision muscle supporting it. This is the company that brought us Tony Hawk and Guitar Hero franchises.
  - Amazing marketing
  -Games penetrate pop culture

3. Yearly release Cycle
  -Keeps games feeling fresh while still familiar
  -Brings in millions(billions?) of dollars of profit
  -Multiplatform. It's on everything, even the Wii.

Titanfall is being published by EA, the worst company in America, its not innovative and it is not multiplatform. Titanfall is not the "next Call of Duty". The timed-exclusive agreement with Microsoft killed any chance of that.

Well, it took the call of duty brand a few games before it started getting huge traction.  Titanfall could turn into the next cod eventually.  Also, activision is really not any better than EA.  

Activsion is much better than EA at marketing their games and turning them into cultural phenomena.
EA pretty much are just copycats.

EA's answer to Tony Hawk = Skate
Guitar Hero = Rockband
Call of Duty = Battelfield(they tried with Medal of Honor but it didn't take)

EA just has too many games to market while Activison focuses on a few select few.
