wasn't the falklands really short. I mean like you blink you miss it short.
We could go with grenada if short conflicts are acceptable.

Whew, when I read the thread title I was like "Oh god please don't make this like infinity ward is making an RTS named "Call of Duty Wars"(like Halo Wars).
On topic: I do like a future war that's an actual war, not just combating insurgentcy. Oh, and fighting somebody besides the Chinese and the Russians would be nice.

But Gaz was the best character.
But yeah, CoD would be stepping into Halo territory if it goes much further in MW3.

Good stuff so far, also don't forget Bosnia, Serbia, Afghanistan (when Russia invaded circa 1981) and the 7-Day war between Egypt and Israel!
I like the ideas of future conflicts, but where and how would it be set? Post-apocalypse, US Army and China PLA fighting in the street, or (like already mentioned) Battlefield 2142 style, with future space weapons, hell, maybe not even set on Earth? Think about it

WW1 is too much of a touchy subject I think, maybe more so in Europe than the US, pointless, at least we knew WW2 had a point, and a damn good one at that.
Maybe a kind of revolutionary one, like the Cuban revolution or Spanish civil war, proper sneaky guerilla warfare style. And whats wrong with unhappy endings, CoD 4 ending, every bugger dies, or at least 499/500 do

WW1 wouldn't make a good conflict for a First person shooter, the war was characterised by artillery bombardments, machine guns,and charges of 60,000 men resulting in only feet of territory gained and incredebly large losses, and odds were that that loss would be you. Prehaps the WW1 conflicts in East Africa or Iraq would be more fast moving but still as a conflict it was generall sitting in a hole waiting to die.
Falklands would be an interresting conflict to make a game about, it was short but there's plenty of battles to reneact, Goose Green etc.
I don't think the napoleonic wars would be very good either, Large blocks of men walking in formation, it harks more of a RTS or TBS game than a FPS. Maybe some of the rebellions in the peninsular war would be interresting but i don't think there's enought here.
I think a made up future war would be good, and i like the idea of some coldwar turned hot world war set in the 60's would be the most interresting. The British Fighting the Chinese and Communist Arab states to secure its colonies in the far east and africa/middle east. The Americans prehaps fighting a communist bloc of latin american countries and helping a European force in Western Europe fighting against the USSR.
I think the FPS needs more imagination in its themes etc. Setting a war in Madeupistan against terrorists or nationalist communist russians is hardly original. I'd rather be fighting the Chinese Army in Northern India or the Warsaw Pact in Holland.

Well, in the name of making it interesting or different, why don't we have a Call of Duty game that doesn't involve America? (or has them on the 'evil' side) It hasn't been done before (I've not seen many countries that depict America as a villain despite the fact that they more than likely have been at least once).
Failing that, how about a Red Alert 2 version of Call of Duty? That would be the very stuff of greatness.

Why not have a WW2 game where we play as the Nazis for a change? I've probably killed more Nazis in games than any other type of character (Zombies, goombas, hopefully you get what I mean). Why can't we get a game where we kill Americans as the enemy for a change?
The american civil war? Activision did publish Civil War: Secret Missions, which was basicly CoD, although on a budget, but hey, it was preety, fallout 3 lincoln repeater's fanboys will drool for the henry rifles and it's got revolver rifles... FUCKING COLT REVOLVER RIFLES!
