Chances are there will not be 70 level Prestiges anymore. It seems that after each release, developers look at things a different way, and think another amount of levels would increase the enjoyability and improve the concept of a Prestige Mode. I don't, however, think that it's going to be as you suggested, Jhdm.
The thing you have to keep in mind is that Prestige Mode is not a forced experience. It is completely option, and does have its pros and its cons. Though there are many times when I've complained about the Prestige system due to the amount of time you have to invest into the game to proceed through all ten prestiges, I think the way the concept is currently structured is great. It allows players to make a choice of what is more important to them, and can be a difficult decision at times. It also provides a system of rewards for players who take more time to proceed through the ranks and prestiges.
If there's anything I'd like to see, it's more rewards for going through Prestige Mode.
Exactly. I would also like to see more and better awards for prestige mode. Such as unique perks or anything along those lines, but not anything so over powered it would put people who haven't prestiged in a difficult situation when fighting against them.
I would also like to see more unlocks for every rank you progress. This would keep me ranking up and getting excited about the next rank.
