Call of Duty 6 Perk Ideas – v2
>> discuss it more in the forum <<
The post below was originally written for COD6.org
The reason I made a version two of this post is because of the MASSIVE popularity of the original. The blog post had 200 comments and the forum post has 14 pages. The topic of which perks will be in Modern Warfare 2 is clearly an important subject, so here we go again with round 2 of the discussion.
Don’t forget to stop by the forum if you get a chance. And yes, I know the header is F’d up and I’m working on that issue…
—————————–
The other post I made a couple weeks ago is totally over loaded with replies. It has almost 200 comments on the blog post plus however many pages on the forum thread. Clearly this topic is one that’s important to people, so I made this post with a better and longer list.
Eventually I’d like to put all the perk ideas into a poll and let users vote on which one they like the best, then maybe we can forward the results to IW.
Before you do anything, check out the official IW idea page. You can submit your ideas directly to Infinity Ward.
#1- FIRST AND FOREMOST
FOR THE SAKE OF ALL THAT IS NOT NOOBISH, PLEASE GET RID OF MARTYDOM. PLEASE. I mean for gods sakes, at least with noobstand you have to use SOME SORT of skill to shoot people. Martyrdom is just a terrible perk that was invented by the devil. Every time a noob gets a martyrdom kill, god kills a kitten. You don’t hate kittens do you IW devs? For the sake of the kittens, make it stop!
Bring Back the Friends Feature
Treyarch, bless their little hearts, tried their best with WaW, the friends feature is one of the few good things they managed to get done. Bring the friends option back but I’d like to have an option to be alerted when a friend comes online or enters a server.
Better Stats
Can’t we get some sort of stats tracking that would give you your global rank? Almost like an online AWSTATS only for Call of Duty. I’d love to know what my global rank is…I wonder if I’m in the top 5,000? Top 10,000? I think Battlefield has this but I’m not sure because I only play COD.
More Weapon Attachments / More Combos
The ability to use a combo like ACOG + Silencer. This could possibly cause balance issues for the devs, I don’t know, but it would be cool. Also just more attachments in general to choose from.
Reduce Recoil
This perk would make the AK47 completely SICK. I suspect the devs would run into some balance issues with this perk. But still a nice idea.
Monkey: ability to climb trees
Awesome idea IMO. Would be great for sniping too. I played on a few custom maps where you could climb trees and it was really fun. I’d love to see this. A more interactive environment would be awesome.
Destructible Environment
I think this is a great idea. It’s kind of silly when you call an airstrike on a little tiny shack and the shack protects you from like 3 x 500LB bombs. If they don’t make walls destructible with things like nades and launchers, at least make them destructible when an airstrike is called ya know? Unless there are no airstrikes in COD6 in which case disregard this entire post.
Pick Up Grenades and Flashes
Makes good sense, you can pick up guns and ammo, why not flashes and nades?
Increase Running Speed Perk (not stamina)
A perk for being able to run faster. Would be nice for people who like to knife and use shotty.
Something after 7 kills
Personally I’d like to see one more thing, perhaps a nice little something at like 15 kills. It kind of sucks to get to 15+ in a row and have nothing to look forward to. Even something at 20 would be cool.
Play Dead
Previously discussed, self explanatory.
Control the heli + able to be killed while in the heli
“After you get a 7 kill streak and call your chopper you will be the one actually responsible for kills. You are the machine gunner. Your helicopter cannot be shot down but you can be shot off of the mounted machine gun. Once you are shot your helicopter flys away.” Idea pulled from this post on the forum.
Character Customization
There should be a little more customization to the characters than just weapons, everyone is different. I mean for each side (green and red) there should be certain outfits you can choose from. Or instead of doing that, have options for Clans to make their own uniform from head to toe. Example- You join a clan you gain options to have custom fittings for your character, and you unlock more as more of the people in the clan ranks get higher and higher, you get more options. And the Clan leader chooses the colors and symbol for the clan. Maybe you unlock more things as you reach a prestige.
Remove eavesdrop
Nobody uses it, it’s probably the most non-used and worthless perk there is. At least on PC, dunno about consoles. Just seems like a wasted slot where something better could be.
Laser Beam Sights
They have the beams in single player of COD4, dunno why they didn’t add it to MP too.
360 / PC / PS3 Compatible
I know, I know. Everyone is going to start screaming that it’s impossible, it’s not impossible and I’m sick of hearing that. There should be some sort of OPTION, so I can play with my friends across all platforms. I understand the mouse gives me an advantage, I understand my graphics card gives me an advantage. Like I said before, if we can send men to the moon I’m pretty sure we can give the players the ability to play with their buddies across platforms. If IW makes this happen I will buy all the devs hookers form the bunny ranch and have them shipped to the IW headquarters. Make it happen! I want to shoot my friends in the face and then teabag them! ;D
Better Sniper Zoom
A perk that allows the sniper rifle to zoom in 2X or maybe even 3X like in Counter Strike Source.
OK that’s all for tonight, I can’t sift through anymore of the ideas. I have 200 comments in the blog post and 14 pages on the forum. Maybe I’ll update this post again tomorrow.
The weather is great idea
Last stand fuckin’ sucks. So annyoing when you’re shooting at someone, they go down, and you have to reload, and they shoot you. I get so angry about this.
you shouldnt need a full clip to kill some1, thats just poor
all these ideas are great i would never had fortof any of them exspecily of the helicopter 1
the xbox /ps / pc compatible thing will never happen, this defeats the purpose of sony and microsoft being in competition together. its a great idea but could never be possible..
Considering it is MODERN warfare, i think we should be able to plant auto turrets that expire after like 2 minutes and are invincible except to grenades and rpg.
As well as this i think there should be a landmine perk similar to claymores but can only be seen by team mates and kill anyone, including self/teammates.
Also, i think there should be a fan perk that clears smoke, it wud be cool but like no-one wud use it.
optional airstrikes, napalm, normal and gas/poison. wud be cool
So far alot of the ideas own, but I think that call of duty could really use some sort of reason to go prestige besides just seeming more experienced than everyone else in the lobby. I’m not saying withhold certain guns till ur prestige 10 cuz some people dont have that kind of time, but maybe have unlockable uniforms or weapon skins or other things in the miscellanious area, nothing that will give u much an advantage, but enough to make people know you worked hard to get to wherever you are. Maybe different types of camo’s, or perhaps slightly more potent kill streak rewards, things that are COOL but not really required. Give peoples something to look forward to.
Sorry if this has already been said…
Only other two things i can think of would be
1) The attachment where you have a frame that holds a second clip next to the active clip on an assault rifle, im not sure what its called but its like a one time fast reload. I’m sure theres a way to do that with shotguns too, seems more realistic than sleight of hand.
2) MAGNUM PLEEEASEEEEE. it can be accurate and have huge recoil and be slow to take out, as long as it kills. It will be like a more tactical version of the desert eagle, and it would also look epic in gold…
I know it’s not strictly related to perks but it seems like there are plenty of other people here that are off-topic so whatever..
i love the ps3/xbox/pc idea, i’ve always thought the same thing, we should be able to play with anyone, i mean how do you know if your the worlds best if you can only play against 1/3 of the people??, plus if you have a lot of friends like say from school or something well it would be nice to get to play with all of them, not just the select few that have the same console as me…and yes it is possible, i mean why wouldn’t it be?, we all conect to the same internet, so why cant we all play together???
@Me Yeah, it’s MODERN warfare. The U.S. military doesn’t have such a thing an an auto turret. And napalm hasn’t been used since the Vietnam war. Once again, MODERN warfare. Or maybe you should go to dictionary.com and look up the definition of the word modern.
they supposbly are bringing back many of the perks and guns. the magnum is coming back theres fully auto pistols and riot sheilds. they protect u however they shatter and u cant see out of them so there not ridiculose. u are allowed to put a silencer on the gun with another attachment as long as they dont over lap
you know how fucking stupid some of these idea are??!!??your graphics card doesn’t give you an advantage, it hinders you….how can you see clearer than the average 52 HDTV? increase speed is already confirmed “lightweight”…martyrdom is for players who are struggling in the game…. fucking stupid sheep didn’t you see the E3??
I would just like 2 have like DUAL-WIELD perk that you can have 2 pistols in hand (would own with 2 desert eagles) and that sniper idea … i don’t like it cuz 2 much shit then to do
I don’t realy know what would dual knife help you but ok i like that idea xD
DUAL-WIELD – can equip 2 pistols
Could you make this perk it would be very usefull when you are sniper on HC when playing S&D
when u complete all the expert challenges and u get a golden gun, instead a screen should pop up saying.
which gun would u like to be golden
1m-16
2ak47
3g36c
4g3
5some other random assault rifle
u should be able to pick which gun, and then once u pick, the expert challenges should reset so that u can do it over again and eventually have every single gun be golden
martydom is amazing i am not a nerd i am a noob
The stupid idea is that things are nooby, i mean COME ON! the game gives people perks and weapons so they cant be cheating or ‘nooby’ when using them CALLING PEOPLE NOOBS IS FOR PEOPLE WHO CANT PLAY AND USE THE NOOB INSULT AS AN EXUSE SO THEY CAN EXPAIN THE FACT THEY CAN ONLY GET 1 KILL TO 12 DEATHS (NOW THAT’S NOOBY!)
I’VE PLAYED COD 4 and 5 ON ALL CONSOLES AND I CAN COUNTER WHAT PEOPLE CALL ‘NOOBY’ I MADE A LIST OF NOBBY THINGS ACCORDING TO MY FRIEND AND HOW YOU CAN EVADE THEM IF YOU ARNT A RUBBISH ‘NOOB INSULT USER’
This is all i can remember…
JUGGERNAUGHT (Juggernoob): use stopping power, double tap, anything else or JUST WASTE A CLIP ON THERE HEAD (lol).
MARTYDOM; run away.
SNIPERS: find some cover STUPID. every map has some!
STOPPING POWER: use Juggernaught or jump (it works)
LAST STAND: shoot at their chest when they last stand you hit there head! or just stab them
PISTOLS (YES PISTOLS!): this is obvious
P90/PPSH 41 (best sub machine gun): Shoot them first/knife/snipe/use a flash/grenade/get some experiance so you have a P90 etc or my favorite pick up a SHOTGUN AND GET THEM IN THE FACE!
NOOB TUBERS (grenage launchers): Slow reloading, if you survive shoot them, you can also dogde the bullet by running VERY FAST forwards then you in a position to shotgunn or knife them.
KNIFING: just SHOOT them. JEEZ. (this also applies to all the above)
@iwana rapeuoi
dude, first of all chill out, its a f***ing video game post. and second of all, a better graphics card would give him a pretty big advantage, because you can have widescreen lcds for computers, and lets just say for example he’s using the most upgraded graphics card for an ALIENWARE, i can guarantee you it would look better than the 360 or PS3.
there is no way that there will be a game that you will play with your ps3 buddies on a 360 or pc. the reason being they are owned by different companies. not to mention the huge differences in technology. but i guess it would be possible if the best scientists in the united states were spending decades researching it like how we got a man on the moon but of course that is never going to happen.
the easdrop perk i acctully found usful when playing borderpatrol it allowed me to hear where the where aming and know when to run its not uslees just not ussally pratical
@Romeo
the changed the last stand perk in cod 5 to being able to revive
I still think it would be cool to hav one dog come around wit u and u can tell him to stay, search, or follow. U obviously only get one per life
wow thats a shitload of new things, sounds good if this would be there
Here is the list of modern warfare 2 perks and weapons:
http://www.callofdutypro.com/xbox-360/call-of-duty-6-weapons-and-perks-list
@me
the eavesdrop perk might have been useful but now with the F***ING party system(dont get me wrong i like being able to talk with friends on other games in a group) game chat has been completely shut down so you wont here what others are saying. And, with the party system you can talk with ur dead buddies on S&D!?!?! WTF!!!?!?!?!?!??!?? like
@Me
actually that is one of the stupidest ideas ive ever heard…
We aint playin halo here man
@itchy balls
yourrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr gayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
i like men
i love u itchy balls
cods crap mate
@Me stop suggesting retarded, overpowered perks that would make it so brand new players could take out pros w/o even trying, such as that unseeable claymore, and indestructible auto-turret. i hope mw2 relies less on what weapons/perks you are using and more on how good you are at using them.
@Shoreyo
these things are “nooby” because they take absolutely no skill to use, such as a noob tube, it is accurate, 1 shot kill, and has a 5 ft square area around someone so its pretty hard to miss with. when i started this game the 1st day i played it, i used a noob tube and got a +2 kill death spread against people with gold X’s
IFUCKING HATE JUGGERPUSSY AND MARRTYFAGSSS
I like in mwf2 that last stand is a deathstreak. Like you die 3 times in a row and you get laststand it make it a little fair..
@william
Stfu, i bet u think its crap coz u suck at it or cant afford it, ahahaha Gay boy.
@iwana rapeuoi
Yes you are a genius, you put some thought into what you type.
Well done.
@william
Ok…
You obviously don’t have an IQ over 3.
I finks uu shood inclood Fifa wen u is running about doing all der shooting , and also if sum ooone throws a grenade u can volley it in to thier anuses, im also sitting down now finkng bout all da sweaty bums out there, also i need a guns with a hole to stick stuff init ps. Im large in ze troosers
@bob marly
i hate u
well, there’s no such thing as a heartbeat sensor mounted on a gun, so STFU. For gods, sake, it would be pretty confusing if they called it Call of Duty: Warfare 2015. Still, auto turret should stay in Campaign mode.
@Dan
you say the U.S military dont habe them blah blah… its modern warfare. set slightly in the future dumbass, could happen. so stop critisising, if you havnt got any perk/game ideas. then STFU
cod isnt as good as i would have fought
Seriously, Reduce Recoil perk for the A.K.? This proves your idea of a great game is a game which will allow any noob to ge good at it. Let the pros do the job, thank god IW know how to make a good game
How bout a perk 3 that lets u switch weapons 3x faster.
How bout airdropping u a tank as a nine or 10 kill streak. But this might lead to glitching out of the map, as long as they do it right its good…
How bout they give u the option for 2 secondary weapons.
how bout they let u hide behind a wall the way they do in rainbow 6 vegas
A grappling hook equipment?
How bout havin the ray gun or wunderwaffe in multiplaer wen u reach level 70 10th prestige
The flamethrower as a 2ndary
How bout an equipment or special nade that u can throw and it is like scrambler, it scrambles anyone’s radar (including teammates) who go near it
well i feel like they were all great ideas most of wish made it in cod6 or partiall in. but i use mlg in search and merc td because it helps when you have 1 life and need to know where the enemy is before they get to you and in merc td i can call out enemy plans when i have a good match plus no partys meen i can here them no matter what
well they could balance it. For example, when u use that or the wonderwaffe, u get no perks. Or use blast shield vs the ray gun. Also, the ray gun’s shots travel mad slow, they take like a second to reach their target, so it’ll not be accurate
what a bout pick up someone killstreak when you kill them like if some one has a harrier they havent used you can kill them and oick it up
need to make vehicles that u can ride in online
It would be nice if there was a game-mode with realistic injuries, such as if you were shot in the leg you movement would be effective, or if you were shot in the arm your aiming might be damped, kind of like military dodgeball. Another thing that would be cool would be bleeding wounds, so that you might bleed to death, and no dying when you get shot in the foot.
And the Ability to pick any 3 perks not 1 from each list.
