    Because shoot games cannot be set in contemporary settings anymore, now that people are starting to notice just how fucked up war actually is again. Notice how the most recent Call of Duty games are a WW2 flashback and a battle royale game with no plot.

          Pretty sure the plot was that the Russians invade teh US and do wwIII somehow, so it fits the zeitgeist.

          You're thinking Modern Warfare 2. Very different thing.
