Ok
As many of you may recall, in World at War we added unlocks to the Prestige ranking. That is to say, as you reach certain levels of Prestige, we unlocked more Create a Class "slots" for you.
This was in addition to the Prestige Icons that had been in the previous game.
We are currently working through a list of Prestige ideas and we ask you to pile on.
First, some ground rules:
Unlocking items that can give you a slight game play advantange like Create a Class slots is fair game, but don't bother with content suggestions:
-upgraded items (my gun is better than your non Prestiged gun)
-new content not available in the non Prestige levels (new types of grenades, attachments, or other equipment)
We know exactly what percentage of you opt to Prestige. It just doesn't make sense to develop new game content used by a relatively small percentage of you some of the time, or (as would actually be the case) hold back content from the game for such a small percentage of overall players to use a small percentage of the time.
As you can imagine, that makes tuning and testing a lot more difficult and the cost vs reward of that type of feature development doesn't come out too favorably. It's "expensive" (using that term generically, not to mean money) to develop and tune content that not many people will ever access. Follow me?
The very definition is Prestige does not include the use of the word "exclusive".
Someone who has prestige is widely recognized, has distinction or importance.
What do we give people who Prestige to further that cause? What do you want to identify you, the Prestige gamer, as having this distinction?

Ok so post your Ideas on what you should unlock by Prestige.

I would like the ability to have camo unlocks after prestige like bronze, silver, gold and platinum. You could get a bronze for each weapon in a category like assault rifles, once 200 headshots has been achieved for every weapon in that category. The headshot count wouldn't reset on any weapon (towards these camos only) when prestiging further. I feel this wouldn't unbalance the game or deam prestige as "exclusive", simply because camos are cosmetic and these would take much longer to unlock. Platinum could be unlocked at something like 1000 headshots for every gun in that category.
lolz yeahhh EVERYONE has enough time to get 1000 headshots!

Ok, here's my idea idea:
1. You dont get new staff for level up.
=> But you get "points"
2. Points: Every level-up = +1 point.
3. For every prestige you get the 10*amount af points your prestige is (Prestige 1 = 10 point | Prestige 4 = 40 points | etc.)
4. If you got enough points you can unlock ANYTHING you want to unlock (e.g. [MW2 example] ACR cost XX points. After you got enough points you can unlock ACR and you'll lose XX points; Then you notice that you dont wanna wait until you got extented mags so you unlock them with XX Points,.. [But I think it's not fair if you can unlock attachments.])
(With ANYTHING i mean ANYTHING! Attachments, nades, kill streaks, perks and so on.)
5. Your points wont get deleted after you prestiged.
+rep if you like that idea
