Now I know how many come to this forum to rage, but I will try to keep my rant on a level where I don't explode. This is not some "**** YOU TREYARCH" thread. I am going to offer my suggestions and opinions on things that need change.
I just got off of black ops literally five minutes ago and I was almost ready to break the disk. Call of Duty has gotten to the point where it's made purely for new players. My K/D literally dropped .17 (6.87-6.70) because I stopped playing with a team of friends.
First off let's start off with the Black Ops matchmaking system.
This is the worst thing in the whole world. It seems like Treyarch thinks that just because I'm better than the average player that I should hold the responsibility for carrying a whole team of people who don't even know how to ADS. I can't even find a match that isn't getting triple capped, chopper gunner-dogs up, and the whole entire enemy team spawn trapping the map when I join sessions. When I get into a decent lobby it seems like everyone on the other team is using ghost which is something I will address later. Why is it that these matchmaking systems are so screwed up? If you have hundreds of millions of dollars to make a game, at least making a decent matchmaking system.
I'll even give you an idea! Make ranked sections and categories!
0-1 K/D = Its Own Section
1-2 K/D = Its Own Section
3KD + = Its Own Section
See how much better that'd make it? It'd make all the good players stop complaining about being a one man army all the time, and it'd give the newer as well as the average player room to breathe and not get spawn trapped 24/7 only to give their burden on one player.
There's so many ways to go about this so I fail to understand why I have a (I believe an honest 5 K/D even though it's 6.70) 6.70 K/D and .49 W/L ratio. I hate camping and I am forced to resort to that sometimes which is, honestly, not fun. Now you might say "If it's not fun, then don't play it." Well that would be awesome! However, I can't play MW2 just because I sold it and CoD4 is hacked beyond repair. Plus I do enjoy Black Ops when I get onto a good team. However, it's so rare that I rarely get that enjoyment. Enough of the matchmaking system. You guys get my point.
Using Ghost!
Haha Ghost *******! I think it's time to redo our perks, or at least fix our killstreaks. This is dedicated to all our ghost campers!
I think that enough is enough with this. Treyarch should have let me beta test because this is something that even a blind dude could see. Ghost is obviously the most dominant perk in Black Ops. Why? You put the spy plane at 3 kills. What. The. F. Were. You. Thinking? So this is the deal!
"Our spy plane is in the air!"
Alright, let's do this. -Runs around gets some kills-
Ghost ***** prone in the corner with a silenced famas kills me.
Feeling at that moment is the FUUUUUUUUU! face if you know what that is.
Ghost either needs to be nerfed so that the spy plane can detect them until you're within fifteen feet or so of their proximity. Then the ghost perk will activate.
OR
Spy plane needs to be, I kid you not, a six killstreak.
You might say "Holy **** six kills!?"
Yes Johnny, six kills. The reason why is because five kills is a care package. Five kills is camping in the corner before the enemy catches on. It's too easy. Anything below five is easy. After their fifth kill, that's where people start to die. Now this not only stops the average player from acquiring it on a five second basis, but now it eliminates the need for ghost since 80% of the community would never use spy plane since the blackbird is two kills above it. They'd just run that, chopper, and dogs/gunship. See how much better that'd be? However, none of these suggestions will be implemented just because I know that it's too late in the game to make dramatic changes. (Too late to stop ghost, I guess.)
These are just things off the top of my head that I made up within ten minutes. Imagine if you put the youtubers and I, as well as some of the community, in a room for a year. I think we'd create a damn near perfect call of duty.
Let's move onto second chance.
Why? Why did you do this treyarch? So AFAIK (as far as I know) call of duty used to be revolved around warfare. I do not remember people being able to get killed and then drop into prone where they're able to kill the soldier who killed them and then get revived by a teammate.
Treyarch: MW2/CoD4 had it.
True but second chance wasn't used as frequently (for sure) as in black ops. Commando wasn't even that bad. The community just bitched about that because it was annoying. However you only died by commando once every three games, and that's getting fixed in MW3. I don't understand why you'd substitute the ***** perk commando with second chance. There's some pretty skilled second chance users ( I mean skilled using second chance ) who will turn on you and own you with their modded controller python. Everytime I get killed by that it makes me want to yell at you guys for making such a dumb perk dominant. You also screwed up ninja to the point where it's useless. As well as your footstep system.. Sigh.
There's a million things I could rant about, none of which you haven't heard a million times already. If you guys want Call of Duty to be a perfect, or as near perfect as you can make it, recruit some people in the community who have been playing long enough to be able to know when Call of Duty is in terrible shape.
I'm sorry for ranting. I'll probably get hate for this, but I needed to voice my opinions. This game is just SO annoying. It's gotten to the point where my friends and I are talking and wishing MW3 would be released today. (on a daily basis)
