True, MS would be a fool to mess with a billion dollar IP but I believe if MS move COD to a 2 year cycle it will allow one or even 2 studios to be off of COD and do their own thing.  Its going to be a balance act because COD still needs to bring in the money but it would probably be better if the game did have more time to be content rich.

I think the most likely scenario (minus still doing yearly releases) is 3 years of releases then 1 year off as there are 3 main developers for the franchise. So it goes from 3 years on average to develop a new entry up to 4 years.

That still would be better than the industry standard for a AAA game.  You know one team or dev is responsible for continued updates for the MP and BR part of the game while the main studios get more time to flesh out what they want to do for their run.
