some ideas for modern warfare 2

    call of duty mw2 ,id love somthing like the ideas below to be in it, what sort of ideas would you put forward if you were asked.

    - Training on Snowdon/North Wales, include S.A.S. induction at the start but don't let the player know they're on induction.

    - Norway. In my view only SOCOM did a really good snowy level in the original, Norway has tonnes of the stuff so a nice infiltration level to detect and eliminate a remote hacker's outpost replete with snow camo, trip-wires between the evergreens, avalanche set-piece, on rails skiing down a glacier as the getaway when things go wrong.

    - Plain clothes mission in New York/London/Paris/Streatham tracking down potential suicide bombers in the subway systems, with a twist that the local fuzz are actually the bombers and the subways aren't their targets.

    - A submarine goes off the grid and is found at the bottom of the seabed, infiltrate, investigate, crew expendable, risk of biohazard. Thie original Metal Gear Solid had a very very cool submersed infiltration, maybe a play on that.

    - An embassy hostage rescue. It's what the SAS are famous for, chuck one of those in as the level after the credits.

    - Two satellites collide in space. Fluke? Secret NASA mission investigates and you're on it, cross between Moonraker and Armageddon, secret Chinese orbital station in geo-synch with the dark side of the moon. (Getting a bit far fetched really, but just think of the perks you could earn for laser weaponry!)

    - Borneo! Lovely jungle playground for the S.A.S., and running around in the woods playing cowboys and indians is what it's all about really. Chance to raise the bar with some bark-splinter/shrapnel effects and lighting/camouflage. Chuck in some white-water rafting for fun.

    Now all we have to do is think of something to add to the mix similar to the AC130 Gunship mission...

    ....

    Nope I'm stumped, that was just too good smile.gif

    Do u really think anything that cool will ever be made? :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 434 ✭✭Ruffty^


    I don't know about that stuff. How about L85A1 british assault rifle, styr aug irish army, ak74 (modern russian army assault rifle, not the mini one thats in the game now) glock, famas, kar98! etc. More weapon costomisation choices, e.g. i like the acog, but how are you supposed to aim with a god damn arrow.
    They could bring in body armor, and bullets types, but maybe cod4s simplicity is a real attribute.

    Anyway, can't wait.
    Flashpoint 2 and Armed Assault 2 are also games to look out for.

    probley not mate lol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭LD 50


    I cant see any of them getting added. Except maybe your embssy siege idea. that'd be good.
    As for the MP, I think being able to add more than 1 attachment to your weapons would be good eg. grenade launcher + RDS, but you lose the second perk.

    Don't IW have a twitter/blog page for people to go and post ideas? Heard that somewhere.

    would be really cool if there was a '/record' command where we could record ourselves playing for future playback.

    Yea, some shots you just want to see again like. And capture cards cost a fair bit.

    I think that in create a class area that their should be a shooting range, where you can try out percs and guns quickly on model robot players to see how quick guns kill etc.

    They should develop their online gaming format to include 'Super Games'. To do this it should include teams of 12 or more. Format of game should last longer than 20mins.

    Break the teams down, 9 players on the ground, 1 as fast air and 2 as helicopter pilots.

    Prior to commencing each task each player should choose a position.
    When the 9 infantry are chosen an objective should be given. 1 helicopter pilot should start his chopper and all 9 soliders must get on board and move out to the LZ to commence mission. Back at base the other heli pilot can oversee the op. If the heli is shot down en route or during the game the pilot may or may not survive depending on the severity of the crash. if he survives he must be rescued to allow his rifle etc to be used, however he could still use his pistol.

    Fast Air - The pilot is his aircraft watching the battle taking place and he is informed of every team mates 3 & 4 killstreak, this will allow to decide whether or not to take to the air. if he does he only has a limit on how how he can stay airbourne before returning to base. If, while airbourne, no air strikes are called in he must return to base unsuccessful to refuel before returning. Any air strike called in by team mates will immediately pop up on pilots HUD informing them of the target's co-ordinates.

    Infantry men - should the soliders get only 3 respawns they should move out to an LZ decided by Ops Command. This location will remain a secret to the opposition. The second chopper can fly in and medi-vac all injured parties. Fly them back to base where after 1 min they can return to the fight. Should any injured (3 respawns gone) not make it back to the LZ then they are out of the fight and may not return.

    Using this type of format would allow all parts of modern warfare get played out online, providing that during the actual COD4 MW2 game you get time as a pilot or chopper pilot.

    You could use these extras in all formats online except Free4All & Cage Matchs. It would create more teamplay.

    I really like them ideas SimComSports, would make for amazing gameplay.

    I would also like if in multiplayer you could select the map you wanted to play and filter the results to this. The vote system isnt fantastic imo.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 510 ✭✭✭gino85


    .....all that

    sounds abit like BF2 but it could work out better if done properly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭giggsy664


    How about a mode in which there is 6 People on a team facig off against another team of 6 people.. But, you are only able to use the default classes. And on top of that, all the classes have to be used once. That means you'll have one sniper, one Support gunner, one machine gunner etc. This would be great as a noob could get into it straight away. Call it "Tactical TDM" or something. Or for über realism, make it Bare Bones aswell.


    Bare Bones = hardcore, no perks, no air support.

    OP - They seem like some really good idea's :D - But my main concern would be for them to fix the absolutely diabloical online game (PS3). Its fun online, but its so unreliable. I wasted over an hour last night trying to find a game, and kept getting thrown into games that were 10 seconds away from finishing.

    infinity ward are making this not treyarch, but ye would love to see a multiplayer where every little aspect doesnt have to be modded to make a semi decent competitive game

    true.... but we both know its going to be a big pile of ****e mad for the casual console gamer, thats going to have to be modded to be anyway playable competitively:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 779 ✭✭✭papajimsmooth


    The two things i would like to see for Cod:MW2

    1) Maps that arent as linear. Honestly this is what made cod4 boring for me, after a while you can effectively lock down the whole map and it just turns into a giant campfest.

    2) Make the grenade launcher a reward for getting so many kills, as in Cod:waw. I dream of a day where i can play on specific servers that dont allow this perk on a console as it ruins the game in my opinion.

    Doubt they'll be in a COD game but you'd be a good screenwriter for James Bond :D

    Get rid of perks such as:

    - Stopping Power(I use it in 3 of 5 classes admittedly, so do love it)
    - Jugger(Despise it but if this goes, it's only fair if SP goes too I guess)
    - Martydom(PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE JUST GET RID OF THIS!)
    - Last Stand(On Hardcore it's highly infurating)

    Might be missing out on one there. Oh well.

    Hardcore Sabotage I'd personally would love to see.

    BAN RPDS AND P90's... won't happen but I can dream :p

    Someone above mentioned a game mode "Bare Bones" style.
    No artillery, radar and just hardcore. That would be fab.

    The most important factor, well 2 factors. A longer singer player game, obviously. Two.. again as someone said, less linear maps.

    Oh and silly one, when you get to 10th prestige... you should be able to select which badge/rank you want to use. I liked the first red one and the green one ok :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 582 ✭✭✭Dr.Millah

    - Stopping Power(I use it in 3 of 5 classes admittedly, so do love it)
    That would be an awful idea, i play waw with bolt action rifles all the time because of the one hit kills on players without jugger but if stopping power could not be used the rifles would be more useless than a pistol.
    But i would argue that jugger, last stand and martyrdom are the most annoying things i i come across, but that said it does make multiplayer harder and more of a challenge

    Or perks. BB TDM was announced for CoD4 over a year ago.

    Mate like I said in brackets. I use it in most of my classes. Absolutely love it and have it on my .50 Cal, it's simply awesome.

    So of course I would love that to remain. But I can imagine if they remove one they'll remove the other as well to balance it out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24 Dub18


    Moveable Claymores, You start off with two, but you can pick it back up after setting it up again.

    Less single shot guns as modded controllers are becoming worse than juggernaut, matrydom and last stand all put together.

    Yea, i doubt it will be got rid of, ide say in new cod games their will just be more to pick from as it looks better on the cover for sales for the general buyers.

    i can vouch for dr millah and his 1 hit bolt action kills ,,,,, grrr ban it to hell i tells ya.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,455 ✭✭✭weemcd


    Taking back an oil tanker, overthrown by pirates in somalia is very topical/could be very enjoyable/could also be a viable multiplayer map.

    Only negative is that its a very close idea to the cargo ship map from cod4.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 114 ✭✭stuckinarut


    i think the online aspect could be improved, as said before, not gameplay wise, but getting into games and levels etc.

    also ive heard silent snipers are gona be in modern warfare 2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 197 ✭✭markthedrum1


    Maybe if they could give more options for the different types of guns you can get. Like if you could unlock some older guns, so for the players who loved COD5 for the guns this could wet their peak on that one.

    I agree with the grenade launcher being added to the challenges too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,227 ✭✭✭gamer


    THERE was a level on ut3 on the pc ,where one team defended a castle,you attacked it after landing on a beach like normandy,with 4 objectives,eg blow up doors,blow up power plant .Something similar in cod4 woud be great,with mutiple pathways and obstacles.lf you captured the castle,the next round is you have to defend it from the other team.A level where you capture tanks and artillery and use them to attack a town woud be interesting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,881 ✭✭✭mle1324


    i think that they should have a flashback mission in 1980 of the iranian embassy siege


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 513 ✭✭✭Onearmedbandit


    Co -op splitscreen and over Live.

    Better MP level design

    Something to counteract grenade spamming (Maybe angle restriction or 5 second ban at the beginning of the game).

    I like the idea of pilotable choppers and fast air too.

    BAN THE NOOBTUBE!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,881 ✭✭✭mle1324


    introduce the Glock 17/19/21 to the weapons :D

    Seen this on cvg.co.uk the top 35 weird requests left on the twitter page:

    http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=210448&site=cvg

    some of my favourites include:

    "Less treyarch. Oh, and an enemy called Pvt. Trey Arch to shoot in the arse."

    "at 20 kill streak give the ability to call in Chuck Norris"

    Brilliant

    I think the Iranian Embassy Siege is a savage idea, it could be the historical level like ghillied up in COD4


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    Calling in Chuck Norris after 20 kills, that made me laugh.. would be EPIC :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 950 ✭✭✭cotwold


    On a serious note id really like to see customisable characters and weapons. I sick of shotting boards of people with the same red berret or keffiyeh. Also we should be able to use more than one attachment on weapons.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,494 ✭✭✭citizen_p


    i think some customisation of characters should be allowed... but not fulll scale rpg ugrades.....
    and not as much changing of uniforms as say, tom clancys rainbow six....


    and the iranian siege (if its in it) should be like the first mission... like a playable flashback

    and a mission playing as a terrorist would be cool

    i would love to see IW add some sort of way to counter a knife attack. Maybe a block it , or kick the guy coming at you and knife him ?

    great idea for the knife counter block, the kick would be outstanding, just think of it, sticky stuck to some unfortunate then give him a boot in the arse and he goes flying into a couple of team mates,,,,,,ooohhhh cod porn thats what that is lol.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 985 ✭✭✭Mark_Sc


    Semi/full auto selector(where available)
    Silenced snipers(but this removes ghillie suits to even things up)
    Ability to take hostages(when you sneak up behind them)
    Longer reload times
    Loads of weapon customisation(Low magnification scopes, different red dots, grips, etc.)
    More realistic wall penetration
    Much much bigger maps with much more depth to them
    No vehicles
    Character customisation(face paint, helmets, scrim netting, webbing, etc.)
    Realistic pistol ranges
