The perfect COD game

Second Chance is a pain. I would like to see it taken out of the game completely, not just nerfed.

I would like to see a FPS meets Red Dead redemption. Just one huge map, thats so big you can have abit of urban shoot outs, and ambushes out in the wilderness. The map would be so big, if you want to spawn trap, you have to get a bus to the enemies spawn. I'd like to see more weapons, in some sort of online store that can actually be updated with new guns at the start of every month. Am talking like 200+ primary weapons. Also I would like it if people had to clean their guns, and if they dont after like 3 games playing online, in the 4th game it could jam. Something like the grand turismo games were you could go to a car wash. I'd also like to see some sort of upgraded kinect that has a air soft gun built in, and when your getting shot online, the air soft gun shoots at you in your chair. Not sure if online gaming is ready for that last part yet.

But ghost encourages camping and spawn killing since its impossible to been seen without the use of an SR-71 Blackbird

If anything I find it encourages flanking. I use ghost on some classes and my sole use for it is to remain hidden when flanking, not to sit in a corner ADSing a door, I do understand though how that crap is headwrecking.

There needs to be a better balance in the high killstreaks, in mw2 an ac130 could just appear out of nowhere and start killing you instantly whilst in black ops a chopper takes an age to arrive on site, often exploding before having the door open.
The result being that the ac130 can rack up kills almost instantly where the door gunner can be shot down almost immediately. The has to be a middleground. Non stackable killstreaks & no nukes or emp. Killstreaks done by individual class.

Also they need to ground the story line, it's modern warfare not farfetched warfare, no more ridiculously implausible happenings in the campaign, a rogue U.S. general with a hidden private army, yeah just before the Master Chief and the Arbiter show up with Cortana. Leave heartbeat sensors in but don't go any further, if we get holograms or jetpacks I'll cry. You add to a game or genre by doing the basics right not covering it up with fancy crap designed to paper over some p*** poor garbage.

Look at what COD4 did on the campaign, that brilliant first level on the ship, the supporting AC-130 mission, the rescue mission for the insider in Russia with the loyalists, the chernobyl level, so many brilliant moments with the player actually knowing what he was doing before hand and no stupid plot twists. A decent plausible story done well will be better than stupid plot twists tacked on to an even dumber mission.

The special ops part of MW2 needs to be improved upon. Make it customisable, like the private matches in Black Ops. Have a party of up to 6 doing a mission together. Couple of guys with a spas clearing a house, supported by AR wielding teammates with thermal snipers & LMG on overwatch. Add in team killstreaks & you've got gaming gold. Each player must have 3 kills for ammo drop, 5 kills for a predator, 7 kills for harrier. Maybe set up a black hawk down scenario, 2 teams of 6, 1 of marines against 1 of op4 wave after wave of attackers controlled by the other 6, who must destroy a target/kill all of them and the winner judged by the scores the got as marines or how many waves they survived.

Alternatively why not do some of the campaign in multiplayer? The assault on the oilrig or the prison to rescue you-know-who would be amazing. A player goes into second chance & will need reviving by a teammate will force players to work together. Incorporate a teammate full time in the AC130, mortar or any vehicle or have a laser designator for armoured targets. Make it fully customisable with the weapons, opponent difficulty, and allow for players to leave / join as they wish and you can have my wallet.

I would like to see tanks again but not the system that WAW had.
for those of you that played COD 3 the tank system in that was brilliant . none of the sh1t of press Square(PS3) Or X (XB360) and your straight into the tank. in COD 3 your character would climb onto the tank and get in it giving the enemy a chance to kill you which is more realistic

To add to the perfect cod game: an even higher multiplayer focus.
More maps and variations of maps. Build the game to last for more than one year and release much more DLC. Seriously, we are just playing a tweaked version of COD4 at the moment, if they kept a consistent feel to it and maintained balance and supported it, a good game could last for years and still generate profits. Look at the pc market. I would much rather have a CoD that I could play the old maps on without having to switch discs and readopt the differences of one game over the other.

Single player campaigns, zombies and spec ops could have all been released as 'episodic' DLC. Halo 3 tried to do something similar with ODST, but was changed near release.

Also another tweak to MP would be to take another leaf out of Halo's book. I think this would work but: penalize the incompletion of games and rage quiting. If you do it too often in Halo you get a 15min ban iirc.

Could it all work?
