I didn't really make this thread because almost every thread in here is an idea thread, but because I know that our community has the BEST ideas (at times) and would really like to get our ideas out to Robert Bowling at IW.

How this will work: I'll keep this thread open for a while and constantly update this main post with ideas that you guys post separated into different pages. Please ELABORATE on your ideas and take time to make a well structured posts all 1 sentence posts and such will be deleted, this will be seen by IW (hopefully) so I want to show them exactly what the great minds on NGU are capable of.

If you don't have any ideas that you want to post, please take the time to go through the available ideas and "like" the ones that you think would work well, I'll add any idea with alot of likes into this post.

How we will contact IW: It's pretty obvious that Robert Bowling is very active on Twitter, so we're going to bomb him with a link to this thread Winky Winky You can see this as spamming but I see it as ensuring that our ideas are seen and acknowledged by IW.

If you've already made a thread about an idea of yours please repost it in this thread.

We want new things.

I have heard so many people say that it is an extension of COD4 or just a Modern Warfare 15 map, map pack. To counter this, change up the perks, the killstreak system, and the game modes.
The perks are a given, just revamp them a little and create a good balance.
The killstreak system should not be just kill based. It should be kill based only in kill based game modes like TDM. In other game types, you need to reward players for actually helping the team by playing the objective.

Game modes are my strongest influence here.
We need new ones. Black Ops had the same playlist as Mw2 with the addition of wager matches, which did not even give you xp towards leveling up. Anybody here remember the game mode 'War' from Cod5? I loved that so much.
You guys should also look at what the hackers have done. Zombieland and Hide and Seek were the freakin shit when I had mods back in the day. You could try to implement those as a mini game or a default private match setup game. DO SOMETHING and create new, completely new, game modes.

Another thing, I think you should create a separate playlist for private matches, where if you want, it can be open for people to join, and you have personalized settings so that you can do your own thing, but with other people who want to do it too. Kind of like how the Cod 3 online was set up if you know what I mean by that. If not, then think of this:
I want to play an hour long game of Team Deathmatch with some friends, but I only have 5 people online. So I start up an Open Private Match Lobby, and I have the settings how I want. I can choose the types of guns to use, the map, and all of the other awesome, in-depth settings that IW has added to the game. When I start the game, I give it a title : Hour long TDM marathon. And the settings will show up in a sidebar in the Open Private Match Lobby playlist. Other people can see this and they decide to join, and soon, I have an hour long 9v9 TDM match going on.

I think that that last section can add so much shelf life to the game. I would love to just play with a bunch of people where it didn't matter what the hell happened, but its still like a regular game if you understand me. Of course, you can't rank up in it. So maybe they should have a whole other section like 3arc did with zombies so people cant glitch it.

Well, thats my thoughts! Smile

Paint Shop: This is for customizing your guns, so you choose a gun you want to customize.. you get takin into a virtual paint shop/paint garage, you have access to different types of paint ( gloss, matt etc ) LOADS of colours and you can paint your gun with a virtual spray can/and you can use other things aswell.. You could unlock this at a higher prestige maybe?

And a starting prestiges you have the camo`s you unlock by headshots?

2 Heli pilots.. when you get a heli, you can invite 1 team mate to control the heli/man the machine gun

Some1 else posted this: when your heli gets shot down.. you can jump out and activate a parachute

Cycle through your earned killstreaks and choose the one you want to use ( everyone wants this )

Cant think of anymore stuff yet


I love the heli idea, just because teamwork is sexy. Imagine having a duo pair of star players who work together so well and they even share choppers. amazing. Happy

I love the private match playlist idea. An hour long TDM 9v9 would be insane!

So here's my idea for how gun camos are earned:
Say there are 10 different camos per gun (Maybe even different camos depending on if its a SMG, Assault, etc) and a certain amount of kills with that gun unlocks a camo.Maybe it could be like:
Camo 1)100 Kills
Camo 2)200 Kills
Camo 3)300 Kills
Camo 4)400 Kills
Camo 5)500 Kills
Camo 6)600 Kills
Camo 7)700 Kills
Camo Cool Man (aka Tustin)800 Kills
Camo 9)900 Kills
Camo 10)1000 Kills
I think its a good idea to go for kills instead of headshots because you don't have aim right at the head but it still requires some gun skill.

the problem with your open private match is fags will name it 10th/15th lobby free to troll people. No besides that good ideas.

Also, give us a timer for game modes to set, with specifics. Make it so you can adjust the limit, by minute. so bassically you can play a 1 minute game, a 2 minute game, a 3 minute game, a 69 minute game, ect.

Also, implement the unlimited time and score like in MW2. Ill go on private match with friends on unlimited time, but it ends due to score, which doesnt have an unlimited section.

You talkin to me?
make it so people can filter out certain maps, or if its Hard core or regular

like lets say MW2 had this I would filter out wasteland, Derail, Estate, and Underpass
then on the type make it regular
(if they add if you can vote for day or night then also add it)

also a game mode that is strictly a certain gun like the map would be a random map, & the game mode. Ofcourse the filter wont have an effect on this. Also to make it more fair everyone would have the same gun, attachments, & perks.
Ex. Scrapyard SnD with strikers with sil and grip with throwing knifes and smoke then the perks would be bling, lightweight, & ninja.

Maybe also add a community that makes custom game modes like president
both teams are even
One team has a President that is randomly chosen on the first round & the rest of the team is the security. The securtity have to escort the president to the safe zone. Which changes randomly every map.
the president would only be able to use a usp or M9 with no lethal grenades just or non lethal his perks would be scavenger, lightweight, steady aim then if he survives his HP will be lowered and his gun would be upgraded to .357 or the Deagle.
The security has shotguns starting on the M1014 with smoke and frags his perks would be SoH, stopping power, steady aim then if the president survives then he would be upgraded to the STRIKER or AA-12.

The other team would be assassins which have to kill the president before he reaches the safe zone.
the assassins load out would be a dragunov with sil or thermal with c4 or Semtex but no lethal grenades his perks would be marathon, cold blooded, ninja then if the president is killed the assassin that killed him would change teams and the other assassins can chose to switch sides with one of the security personals or get a upgraded sniper rifle which would be the M40A3, Intervention, or M21 all of them would have upgraded ammo.

To find out who won it would be divided between who was the best security, assassin, president & overall kills.

The key to win is communications since the assassin can plan a ambush, maybe have teams that would cover choke points. Then the security could maybe send a team that is a decoy to go and try to distract the assassin while the other team is sneaking to the safe zone.

I think that instead of people camping to get their chopper gunner, then immediately laying down behind a rock to use it, they have to make their way to a pick up zone or something.
This would be an area where a chopper could land or somehow pick up the player with a rope or something? I'm not saying making it virtually impossible to get to their killstreak but just give the other players a chance to add a death or two their enemy, and if the player who got the chopper died before making it to the pick-up, they would automatically spawn inside and in the sky like they normally would in any of the earlier CoD games. Then they could have a player they could invite to fly/gun the heli, like how someone said in a previous post.
This would highly reduce the chance of someone racking kills through killstreaks, plus evening out the risk/reward factor.

Oh and of course everyone wants more guns, camos, and attachments. Plus I loved the "Titles" from MW2, it'd be cool if you could also create your own, people could use it to rep other clans, or even their own. Or maybe just put something funny or cool in it, they'd give you the premade background or if they wanted they could include "customize backgrounds" similar to the Black Ops emblem creator.

Also, making the knifing more realistic, non of the quick flick of the wrist knife to a bulletproof vest and getting an instant kill. Shits ridiculous, I think it should be like CoD3 campaign where if you got into a melee fight with the NPC you had to click a series of buttons in order to get the upper hand and kill the enemy, I don't know if you have seen Saving Private Ryan but remember when that guy runs out of bullets and he charges the Nazi and they start wrestling while the American is laying on the floor with blood draining from his neck? Then eventually the guy gets killed with his own knife through the chest? Imagine if you could reenact that or do something similar? That would be ****ing sick!!

*1v1 SnD, both players are leaders of their team, all friendlies are dead, and they're dry on ammo. Spetnatz turns the corner to see a member of the SAS charging, "oh shit!" They click R3 at the same time and go into some kind of UFC tie-up, with each holding the enemies knife away from their chests, a series of buttons appear on screen and whoever click them first (we'll say SAS), knocks the other to the floor and jumps on top, and then a single button appears and you have to start spamming that specific button as fast as you can, a bar appears on top of the screen with a dial showing who is struggling harder, then when a player gets all the way to the opposite side of the bar (SAS again) a single random button appears, we'll say SAS clicks it first, and BAM! some weird arm maneuver performed by the SAS and the knife goes straight through the enemies chest resulting in a win for the SAS* Hahahah I can already imagine my friends screaming with excitement as they watch from the spectating screen. (No homo)
But, if they melee behind the enemies back then they would slit their throat or break their neck similar to Killzone 3.

One more thing, have CoD points, not necessarily for buying weapons or whatever, but make it just for customizing our characters, they had that option in MGS4 and I think that is the only reason I actually played because every time I saw my character I knew he was original to the rest. Balaclava plus beret ftw.
There was something else I was gonna include but I forgot what it was, damn, I'll post when I remember.

Found the Saving Private Ryan scene.

I'm thinking of a killfeed upgrade.
- What I mean is, there should be an icon next to each feed if it so happens to be a special kill. A double, for example, would maybe have a x2 icon next to both feeds, triple being x3, multi being x4 or x4+.

-Collaterals would have the collateral skull emblem from MW2 next to each feeds. x2 shouldn't show with that unless it was a triple or more. So it would be collateral, collateral x3, etc.

- Wallbangs would have the FMJ attachment icon next to the feed(s).

- Headshots should not simply be a headshot icon. The gun and headshot icon should be next to each other, knowing what gun they got the headshot with.

Of course, there could be multiple icons, if you get a collateral wallbang headshot, for example.

that would be interesting except i think it will take up too much of the screen and start to block your view. at least thats that happened when people started to advertise there hacks in the kill feed on cod4.
