Call of Duty sets high standards? Camping, Jtaggers and boosting lobbies? Sounds top notch to me. Also, Treyarch is coming out with Black Ops, so you can expect a dumbed down version of MW2's multiplayer (Just likethey they did in WaW with MW 1). So have fun playing Black Ops, I'll stick to MoH, until BFBC3 is out, cause Dice knows how to make shooters (and keep modders out... along with Bungie).
Call of Duty must set high standards. Millions of pre-orders don't lie. Dice aside (and I do believe they make decent shooters), most games have to deal with camping and boosting. It's simply a product of the gaming community that exists today. I loved hopping on to Reach three days after it was released to find that all of my friends were already pushing Captain because they can pick up a check point and use a targeting locator. The only reason Dice hasn't previously dealt with much camping is because it takes fifteen minutes to get to where the action is . . . it doesn't often come to you.
Also, it would be impossibly difficult to dumb down MW2's multiplayer. All you need to pull off an MLG K/D game is to attach a grenade launcher to your M4 and use Danger Close with it. It is arguably (and I stress that word heavily) the worst CoD multiplayer to date, with CoD3 being the only obvious exception. In an attempt to smooth the learning curve, they made it so n00b-friendly that it's impossible to tell who's any good. It would just seem that assuming Treyarch is going to make a bad game is about as dumb as I was when i assumed that Infinity Ward would make a good game.
