(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay this is not to be a rant in any which way, simply the goal of this thread is to work together as a community to compile a list of everything that we can all agree on that needs a change and what would make Call of Duty: Black Ops possibly better than we already expect. This topic is meant to share helpful ideas on what new or old things should be improved apon based on what we have experienced with previous games.

If you have an idea that you think would actually be helpful than please post it and if its good I will add it to the list so that this topic can be copied to other communities i.e. treyarch so that dev's and such can get a good complete list of what we want to see, they say they listen.

Basically this is to keep everything organized so whenever we have a quick idea we can just post it here and discuss what we think.. If its good and different Ill give you credit.

Ideas (Fixes, features, etc) for Call of Duty: Black Ops:

*Updated match making system - One that actually works. It would be excellent to have it so if you have a rage quit or you hate that lobby and you leave, it will not keep putting you back in that lobby when you join the same game mode such as how it did in cod4, w@w and even in MW2. Overall just fix it please.

*Less Kill streaks - Well does not necessarily need to be less of a total greater amount but keeping the K/S simple unlike nukes and chopper gunners will prevent less of an issue with camping as players wont need to worry about getting a game ending reward. A good idea would be to stick with the 3,5,7 killstreaks but simply have multiple options to choose from for each tier. Also it would be good to have it so that every choice is balanced with another i.e:

3
UAV
Counter UAV

5
Artillery
Enemy Mark(something like where it gives you basically an invisable guy from HQ who for a short time will mark out enemies so you can easily see them)

7
Attack Chopper
Airstrike

And so on...

*Points unlock system - The more kills and the more you use your certain gun and other variables the more points you get towards each gun. You then use the points to buy and unlock the attachments, something like a silencer would cost 100 per say(not sure how hard the points would be to earn) while a round drum or extended mags would cost 600.

*Character Customization - The ability to change the skin of your player so that the appearance will be different and unique to that of other players. This would be a new feature that the COD series never incorporated even though it has been suggested several times. Allowing you to change the look of your player could show your status and how good of a player you are. Things you can change would be special camos, hats(like fedora's and general hats) and perhaps a few special outfits.

*Bringing back juggernaut - While some players will infact disagree this is an overall useful perk. While around 95% of players most of the time use stopping power that makes the difference of ONE less bullet to kill, juggernaut balances it by canceling it out, allowing you to take ONE extra bullet before you die. Should be put back into the game.

*Killstreak-less mode - Often called the "Pro mode" this would simply be a playlist that a player can join where no one is allowed to use killstreak's this would cut down camping and allow people to focus on the objectives or getting kills for a possibly more challenging type of play.

*Old school Playlist mode - Having the old school mode like cod4 had would be amazing, would allow us older players to go WAY back into time where we all start out with a pistol and have to go around collecting our weapons and gear and if we die we start back with a pistol. Would be interesting as it would only have certain guns. I believe this one would be a MUST for public matches as its basically true skill.

*Stat tracking system - Treyarch did it for World at War so why can't we have it for Black Ops? Would be neat-o to go back and see how many kills we got on each game and with what gun etc. A must have!

*In-game clan system - Not sure how it would work, possibly some sort of sub menu like instead of the clan tag option its the 'clan' option and you can invite members and if they accept their added to the list. Maybe would be useful if added with the stat tracker or some other feature.

*Best foot forward attempt to fix lag - even if it is eventually fixed(somewhat) whenever a game is released it seems to have lag, if this is not and issue when the game is released and never becomes an issue it will make the gameplay better for everyone.

*Sniper rifle fix/hitmarkers - "If I shoot you in the head than your dead!" ~The words of a 10 year old. The snipers of course should not be a one hit kill in the leg etc(maybe some gore with higher calibers possibly?) but if its upper chest and head then they should die. Would make the game a million times better for snipers.

*Bring back higher level only lobbies - Depending on what the highest rank and level will be have it so the people that have a level in the top 1/4 or so can only join. Would give more experienced players a little more of a challenge to enjoy. Would be a playlist.

Note: Coming from a person with some networking experience I know this is not 100% possible due to the latency of your connection and the targets but having a good hit detection system would still improve it.

*Change spawns - Cmon' STOP having it so there are like 5 set spawns on each map, a designed system to randomly spawn you in the best possible location, not too close to the enemy would be a great and appreciated improvement.

*FIX Matchmaking - I am sure I can speak for everybody when I say NO ONE likes to join a game that is literally a few seconds from ending and when you join your team automatically looses and YOU get a free loss. Fair? I dont think so, many people do not like to join games that already half over so it would be a great fix if it could be done where no one joins after like the first three minutes or whatever, ultimately fix the matchmaking system in general.

*Filter System - Let us have an option to fill out a filter to what type of game we want to play. Let us select if we're willing to join a game in progress, what map we want to play on, etc. Would be simple to use yet allows us to find the lobby that we want to play in. I can see it possibly causing some problems yet it will still allow the majority of people to be pleased with the game as they are playing what they want to play and could always just disable it.

*More Camo's and Secondaries Customization - Secondary Weapon challenges are most of the time harder to complete than regular primary challenges so it would be nice to earn an award such as more unlocks and camo's for our secondary weapons as well. Perhaps maybe even a different type of skin like chrome or gold perhaps?

*Un-Scoped Snipers - Back in the days of World at War we had the option to use bolt action rifles without having to use a scope attachment. This should remain the same in Black Ops as it allows for players to choose a style when using such a gun that works the best for them. Anything from no scoping and beyond, not having to use a scope can have its benefits for players who want to use a bolt action rifle, but don't necessarily want to use a 'sniper'. This should be practical as a lot of bolt action rifles back in Black Ops time frame didn't always have a scope. Personally I think this would be nice if it worked like it did in World at War for the most part.

*Less semi automatic snipers = less spraying people cause they miss
*Change spawns = less spawn toobing
*3,5,7 killstreaks = we had them ks in cod4 and they were great
*No stupid unrealistic perks = Commando, Marathon.. etc. Bring back Extreme Conditioning from COD4!!
*No Death Streaks
*When you spawn you cant get hurt for 5 seconds so no spawn killing
*No lightweight
*No OMA!!!!
*Do something about kids showing off at the end of game when defusing bomb... gets annoying

Thanks for reminding me about the spawn fix, that was like the #2 or #3 most complained thing about MW2 yet we all forgot about it. :embarrassed:

███Awesome faceUBSTEP███
i think you shuld be able to create a class on zombies like if you play and you die with lets say 7000 it cost 10000 to make a class and if you make a class to change the primary would be 10000 and to change secondary 5000 and perks is 3000 plus you could change the level of ammo you have but that cost a 1000 per 20 ammo

Could you elaborate on that as I am sure we all want new modes for the playlist but I cannot think of any new ideas at the moment.

Greek Ops
Boom ur Dead
If I get my Hardcore War back with 9 man teams all well be right in the world. If your like me you have a group of friends that you constantly play with and hardcore war was a great game mode for us in WAW because then we only had like 3 guys on deck waiting to join up with us instead of the 6-7 that we currently have right now always waiting to team up with us in MW2.

-When migrating to another host and it doesnt work out and it takes you back to the pre game lobby IT COUNTS AS A LOSS

-Ninja on MW2 should be with Cold Blooded so on black ops dont have two perk that atribute to exposing your location.

-Make the Grenade Launchers the last attchment that you can ever unlock on a gun

-On WaW when finishing a game it shows you who you killed the most.

-If Black Ops has the Tatical Nuke make it cooler not making the game go slow mo and the screen brightning up
-I suggest a nuke missle coming from the sky and exploding and the kill cam show the nuke missile point of view

-I would like to have the frag granades from WaW

-Would it be possible to bring back the MP40 back
-or everytime you prestige as an extra bonus u unlock something from the past call of duty for example guns from WaW

-Keep the callsigns and emblems also killstreaks

-The one thing i hate about all Call of Duty games is when you try to join a match the game is half way done and it puts me on the losing of course (Why would somebody leave a match-because they are losing probably cause that person is a noob or somebody has to attend something) I would like to enter the pre game lobby rather than a game that half way done.

-This comment has to do about the one above this one.
-When i join a game, it takes me to game that already over and it put me on a team most of the time on the losing team.....I didnt atribute anything to the team or game so why does it have to count as a loss to me if i joined the game when its over.


-Tournaments would be something good in COD just like in Metal Gear Solid.


-I would appreciate feedback from the NGU Community

ive had this idea since cod4 just never came out with it i think itd be super awesome if there was set designs and a variety of colors
and you can mix them any which way
for example you could have the red tiger design but make the primary color gold and the secondary black
thered be alot of variety and you could customize it the way you want
your camo wouldnt have to be the same as everyone elses
but of course youd have to earn/unlock the sweeter designs and colors
anyone agree?

I think that would be very cool but complicated as the COD series does not like complicated so I am not sure how it would be handled, would be awesome to have like a yellow, green and black cammo :love: Going to update the list again.
