(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); From reading what people are posting and what FourZeroTwo posted it seems like they will mess up the rank/kill system. Making it so you get killstreaks from capturing flags or planting bombs and not just killing people? That's what it seems they are doing right? Because in the video he got a POINT STREAK not KILL STREAK. And he talked about he doesn't like people just kill whoring but that's the fun part for many. Any body can stand on a stupid flag and capture it. Not everyone can get kills though. I dont know what do you guys think? I think they will mess that up and make the kills worthless really. Opinions?

To be honest, point streak is waay better than killstreak, not only can you get a point streak from killing other players but from playing the objective; capping flags or maybe defusing a bomb etc.

its to stop all the kill seekers from going into team objective games, purely to get kills

it annoys me when im playing headquarters and i see someone going away from the headquarters while we try and capture it.

if you want to just get kills, play TDM, if your going to get kills as well as play the objective games as a team, then play objective games.

its a good idea to reward players for doing what they are suppose to in the game types.

watch me switch your post around to my view. anyone can stand in a corner and kill. Not everyone can rush in under fire to cap a flag and live.

Point streaks are a good idea. People will go after the objective more so it won't just be n00bs camping in one spot in demo or CTF.

Capturing a flag is more than just siting on it.
1. You have to be on guard and defend yourself while capturing it
2. The whole point of domination IS capturing the flags. Not killing. Might aswell get rewarded for doing what the gamemode is for.

Maybe you get a point for every kill, as well as a point for every objective you capture?
Say you want a predator missile, you get 2 kills getting you 2 points, then capture C flag. You now have 3 points. You kill another enemy bringing you up to 4 points and capture B flag, now you've reached 5 points and earned your predator missile.

That sounds completely logical to me, and pretty smart. Infinity Ward knows people love killstreaks but often go kill-whoring in objective based game modes to get them. This would make those type of players go for the objective now, so they won't just be going for the kills but helping out the team aswell.

Also explains why the AC-130 kill counted as a point-streak.

Just my thoughts :y:

I hope they will use this system. Got sick of playing CTF when all my team went for kills :fa:. After that, I only played TDM and FFA.

They wanted to promote Team Playing Which is the point of Domination and all that Not just Spawn Camping and Spawn Trapping, We can't say the system will be ****ed up until we play it our self.

COD is a TDM game.....the problem was when they added too many elements into the game which means kills is better then the objective.
Sadly when they added all these KS it became more about kills then keeping a objective.
That what he means rebalancing it so not just slayers who count but support players who slay and get stuff.

May be fun but at the end of the day changed the game into being who had air support :/
In that effect it ruined MW2 and bops.

Pointstreaks are just killstreaks with a new name. Along with a new element added to reward players keeping near the objective.
What it does is means that good slayers have a eaiser way to get streaks by jumping on a flag.
I doubt they would make capping flags that much more then kills.

It worked in MOH , it worked in homefront , fail to see how it won't work in COD.

It the biggest step forward COD has done apart from adding kill rewards

Hope it stops certain game modes becoming about K.D boosting and more close not just a straight beat down.
