(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So josh olin (or whatever his name is, i thinks its josh olin) said that when we first play multiplayer we will be like, "wtf i never saw that coming" and that it will surprise us. Personally, the only way multiplayer can change is if they get rid of perks. So all the stuff you customize your character with will have benefits as well as disadvantages. Therefore, some type of helmet will add to ur health and some type of ammo will increase damage and so on and so forth. this is the only way that i see blackops being a whole new experience. I have seen no evidence of perks so far (eventho we still have a while to go till BO). in mw2, im pretty sure that the first multiplayer trailer showed perks. (regardless of the fact that they were made by different people). So that's what i think the multiplayer will be. There will still be weapon customization and equipment, but instead of perks, mayb it will be this. Im just throwing ideas out there LOL. Please give your thoughts on my hypothesis.

Ahaha was that said in seriousness?
There were perks throughout all the other Call of Duty's, yet the multiplayer was significantly different? Dunno how you get the idea that all multi's are the same because of perks.... :\

I think it would be cool if they had like armor with stats.

yeah i was serious since what else could possibly change that the cod community would say as a reaction to multiplayer.."i never saw that coming". what could be a major change other than what i have proposed. and from my knowledge, cod4 was the first game to instill the perk system (i mayb wrong but im pretty sure), so not all other call of dutys have had perks. and they have said that there will b a greater level of character customization and by having advantages or benefits that certain armor contain, it would replace the perk system.

There is an endless amount of things they could do, REMOVING something from the game, and replacing it in customization of armour would just be plain stupid, and very unlikely to happen.
In saying Call of Duty's, I meant the last few.
Yes they have said character customisation, but regardless I highly doubt this will remove perks from the game.
End of the day, wait a week for September 1st and everyone will know!

*fingers crossed* PLEASE NO JUGG/ARMOR!

makeing people go omg xD

dunno maybe a game mode in witch terrorists have to kill civilians and counter terrorists have to save them lol

The biggest thing I can think of that will make us all go "WTF" is if there is some kind of cover system or Lean system aside from that it's going to be pretty tough to surprise us. I guess we will see the countdown is on 10 days left...Sept. 1st! :derp:

I somewhat understand your reasoning behind this, but they would be trying something new. Your not even considering this option. I don't see it as unlikely, in fact, I see it as innovative. In order to fabricate such a drastic reaction, a drastic change (or addition) must be made. Based on what we have seen (although very little), not much has changed. We have not seen any use of perks let alone evidence of perks. Thus, it is practical to imagine that they may have altered the perk system and morphed it into a different sort of character customization (into clothing, armor, etc). And yes you're right, we'll just have to wait till September 1st.

Yeah I agree.
