With a new Call of Dut<\/em>y right<\/a> around the corner\u2014\u00a0as it has been at this time of year every year since 2005\u2014 fans have begun wondering what we will see from the seventeenth title in the overall series that will set it apart from the others. From its first installment in 2003, the CoD<\/em> franchise quickly established itself as one of gaming’s premiere FPS\u00a0brands, and it’s been a consistent staple in the online multiplayer space for nearly 15 years now.<\/p>\n

While\u00a0many companies have created installments in the series, Treyarch and Infinity Ward have been the two biggest and most constant developers of the franchise. While both companies’ creations are very similar,\u00a0each developer has gained its own dedicated following.\u00a0There’s no clear choice when it comes to which team makes the best\u00a0CoD<\/em> games, but each definitely excels over the other in specific areas.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Most Influential Title: Infinity Ward<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Although Call of Duty<\/em> has been one of the top-selling games every year for over a decade now, no game in the franchise has been as influential as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare<\/em><\/a>. While PC gamers had been able to play online for some time, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4<\/em> helped bring competitive shooters to the forefront of console gaming.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the title was the first in the franchise to incorporate aim down sites, sprinting, and killstreaks, which are still pillars of the genre today. If that was not enough, Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4<\/em>‘s instant success caused almost every company\u00a0creating a historical first-person shooter to shift focus\u00a0to modern military combat.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Better Zombies Mode: Treyarch<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

While\u00a0Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer have\u00a0included\u00a0Zombies modes<\/a> in their titles, neither developer’s take on the game mode compares to Treyarch’s interpretation. The other companies have created fun experiences, but the original series has been able to create a fan base that purchases Call of Duty<\/em> solely for the complex story tucked beneath Trayarch’s endless waves of the undead.<\/p>\n

Unlike the other series’ main zombies mode protagonists, Richtofen, Nikai, Dempsey, and Takeo are about as memorable as the single-player leads of any Call of Duty<\/em> campaign.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Better Campaigns: Infinity Ward<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Although Call of Duty: Black Ops<\/em> is arguably the best single campaign in the entire franchise, Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare<\/em> sub-series\u00a0defines\u00a0the developer as Activision’s best Call of Duty<\/em>\u00a0storytellers. While\u00a0Infinity Ward has created some lackluster installments, specifically Ghost<\/em> and Infinite<\/em> Warfare<\/em>, Treyarch’s last title did not even bother to add a campaign.<\/p>\n

Although Infinity Ward had struggled in recent years, the reboot Call of Duty: Modern Warfare<\/em> showed the company still able to push out a story worthy of the Call of Duty<\/em> name.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Smoother Gameplay: Treyarch<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Many people that do not play Call of Duty<\/em> consistently may not notice a difference between the two companies in terms of gameplay. However, Treyarch and Infinity Ward games control quite differently. Although the two companies work off of the same foundation, Treyarch titles are faster-paced,\u00a0smoother, and more arcade-like, while Infinity Ward titles tend to lean toward realism.<\/p>\n

Treyarch’s Black<\/em> Ops<\/em> titles are the best CoD<\/em>\u00a0games when it comes to fluid gameplay.\u00a0When it comes down to the nitty-gritty, Treyarch’s faster gameplay is just a more enjoyable experience.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Best\u00a0Battle Royale: Infinity Ward<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

In Black Ops 4,<\/em> Treyarch introduced gamers to a Call<\/em> of<\/em> Duty<\/em> battle royale, which is basically a requirement in a shooter these days. While the game was initially loved,\u00a0it ultimately\u00a0left much to be desired. With Infinity Ward having the benefit of extra time to implement their take on the subgenre, Warzone<\/em> quickly became one of the best battle royales on the market.<\/p>\n

Many of the staples from Blackout<\/em> were there at the launch of Warzone<\/em>.\u00a0However, the introduction of missions, loadouts, and a purchase system helped the game surpass its predecessor. Furthermore, Warzone<\/em> incorporated crossplay, and unlike Blackout, it is free-to-play.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>More Cohesive Approach To Multiplayer Map Design: Treyarch<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Throughout the early Modern<\/em> Warfare<\/em> titles, Infinity Ward created some of the best maps in the franchise. Terminal, Crash, and Highrise, all Infinity Ward maps, are some of the best-loved in the franchise. The problem is that Infinity Ward has also been responsible for a lot of the more forgettable\u00a0CoD<\/em> maps, thus bringing down their overall average in this match-up.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a0Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War: Everything We Know So Far<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Although no one specific Treyarch map is necessarily a fan favorite, the company’s three-lane system has set the standard for the series. With it, players are able to know the basic layout before they even play the map, leading to more consistently solid maps from the company overall.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>More Memorable Campaign Characters: Infinity Ward<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Except for\u00a0the Zombies Mode leads, Treyarch has fallen short in creating memorable characters for the series. Besides Woods, Alex Mason, and David Mason, the Black<\/em> Ops<\/em>‘ series leads\u00a0are forgettable. Throughout the first three Modern<\/em> Warfare<\/em> titles, however, Infinity Ward created the majority of the Call<\/em> of<\/em> Duty<\/em> characters that are still talked about today.<\/p>\n

Although the last game in the trilogy is nine years old, fans of the games can name several key characters and moments from the set of games. Captain Price, Soap, Ghost, Sheperd, Makarov, Nikolai, Zakhaev and Roach are just a few of the memorable figures in the Modern<\/em> Warfare<\/em> series.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>More Willingness To Evolve: Treyarch<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

When Sledgehammer released Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare,<\/em> the title breathed new life into the series. Before 2014,\u00a0Activision was heavily criticized\u00a0for releasing the same basic\u00a0CoD<\/em>\u00a0game each year. Taking notes from Sledgehammer’s success, post-Advanced Warfare<\/em> Treyarch titles\u00a0diverged from the status-quo.<\/p>\n

While many of the things Treyarch has implemented, like the use of specialist operators, have been fazed out of the series, its attempts to shake things up has helped the company stand out\u2014 while\u00a0Infinity Ward\u00a0<\/em>prefers to play it safe and not take as many creative risks, for worse\u00a0or<\/em> better.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Best Visuals: Infinity Ward<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

One thing that has always differentiated the two franchises were the visual tones. Throughout the Black Ops<\/em> series, Treyarch’s more stylized aesthetics has led to a brighter and more vibrant look. While this does not make the game look bad by any means, Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare<\/em>‘s darker tone has led to an exceptionally beautiful setting.<\/p>\n

Granted, there is rarely a\u00a0Call of Duty<\/em> release that isn’t one of the best-looking games available at the time it comes out, but there’s just something about\u00a0Infinity Ward’s games that seem to have a better overall visual polish.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Better Overall Multiplayer: Treyarch<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Over the past few games, Treyarch has taken fans from the Cold War to\u00a0fiction wars set in the near future. Although Treyarch has added far more features throughout the past console generation than any other developer in the series, like Black Ops 3<\/em>‘s wall-running, each of the company’s titles have been able to reach the same level of quality as the last.<\/p>\n

This, however, can not be said for Infinity Ward. For every Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2<\/em>, there is a Call of Duty: Ghost<\/em><\/a>, a game with a disappointing multiplayer mode to cancel out one of the developer’s great multiplayer experiences.<\/p>\n
