Intro ::
I have been browsing the forums here and from what i can see Black Ops is not the most favoured game in the CoD series, I on the other hand can see the progression in making a better game as well as the some of the bad aspects as well. Please read the entire post before posting a reply.
The aspect of Black Ops is control, we now have more control over the multiplayer than ever before with the ability to choose kill streaks, more camo's, face paint and attatchments. I personally love Black Ops for many reasons even though it is not what i expected. Personally I expected bigger maps which could handle more PPS (players per side), more features during multiplayer but sadly neither happened.
COD Points ::
I have played COD 3,4 and Black Ops and there is one crutial part of Black Ops which i think allows for more addons and download packages is the COD Points system, this means that there could potentially be weapon pack to buy with Microsoft Points and the same goes for camo's, face paints & maps and becuase all guns are balanced out to be rought similar in damage to fire rate ratio it would not unblance the game if one persona has a weapon pack and another doesnt.
**Infared Scope ::
I have to say through out my multiplay time i have only been killed by someone with an infared scope once, thats right once, i should think most of us have tried the scope at least once wondering what it would be like but my honest opinion the scope is really out of place, there is no real part or reason for us to use the scope, maybe for the Hanoi map where it is night time but thats about it. The first problem i had when i tried it is that because it enhances your zoom its harder to focus your shots and control the recoil so what i would personally like is one where you have the extra zoom and another which has the same zoom as the RDS. This is my own personal rant on the IRS but i want to know if you do use the scope yourself?
**ACOG Scope ::
Now for the past few days from prestige 1 level 27 through to 33 i have been using the L96A1 snipers rifle with the ACOG scope, what the hell have you done Treyarch... the acog cross-hair is more than annoying when trying to work out where the shot will go, a lot of the time when my cross-hair is over an enemy i scope in, fire and dont even hit, even at close range.... very close range. I shot someone who was prone on the floor and i was behind him and the first shot missed, the second hit but obviously the neck/chest in that round was not a vital area.
I dont like the cross-hair because its hard to detirmain where the shot will go, at the tip, below the tip or in the middle, becoming very annoying so what i wouldn't mind is if you could choose a cross-hair from a variety. Some guns have different ACOG cross-hairs so why cant we choose which cross-hair we prefer... same goes for other weapons as well.
**Last Chance Perk vs Snipers ::
As stated above i have been using the L96A1 rifle with ACOG scope, i can easily et 1 hit kills but there is one particular item that p*sses me off completely... the Last Chance Perk, if i shoot someone in the head/neck i expect them to die instantly w or w/o Last Chance Perk, sniper shots to the head should overide that particular perk becuase what happens sometimes is i shoot someone in the head, they pull out their pistol and kill me, they then either get killed by a team mate or revived. Comon its a shot to the HEAD they should die instantly... make sniper shots to the head overide this perk!
**AK74u ::
Lately i have been using the AK74u, i have not used it previously before but comparing the stats of the AK74u to the rest of the SMG's, alone it has stats that can beat some if not most assault rifles and yet still his the ability to have rapid fire on which once added overides any and all guns, i have stated shooting someone, they turn around and kill me instantly with this weapon, the setup is grip and rapid fire, makes for great damage, accuracy and rate of fire... i propose that rapid fire attatchment is taken off the AK74u list as it is already powerful without it, rapid fire is not needed for this weapon.
Good Features ::
Bad Features ::
**Prestige ::
As stated in the "Bad Features" section above for me at least i see no reason to prestige after i have worked so hard on getting my Pro Perks, attatchments, weapons, camo's, facepaints ect and then have to work to unlock and buy them again, there is a post on page 3 i think that someone stated that maybe when you prestige everything remains fully unlocked, thats right all of it but you have to rebuy it all, say you had ghost pro when you presiged, you have to buy the ghost perk and then but pro in order to use it allowing you to skip the perks you dont like or you know you wont use. This also goes for weapons as well, you have to buy all weapons within a spesific group to unlock the classified one.
On a personal note to me saying "wish it was more worth while" i would like new features like being able to create your own facepaint/weapon camo, classified prestige weapons, everytime you 2nd (ie prestige 2, 4, 6, 8 & 10 ect) prestige you get say two new classified weapons in each weapon catagory but you can only purchase one from two catagory's and the other remains locked until prestige 10, again you would have to purchase all other guns including the classified one to gain these guns... just an idea.
As for the custom camo/facepaints again maybe every 2nd prestige you get a new slot to save a custom facepaint/camo... again just an idea.
What i would like to see ::
I am level 27 3rd Prestige on black Ops and prefer it to the other COD games i have played, these are just a few things that could have been done, could be corrected or could even be added in the next game, there is something you think should be changed or added please post. I am still working on this thread and please excuse my spelling.
If i am mistaken on any part of this threadin reguards to the game please post and i will correct asap.

Good Features ::
- Dive feature ~ always good to be able to run and dive for cover
- Breakable windows ~ makes for more of a realistic play
- COD Point system ~ makes for a better balanced game play
- A good variety of kill streaks to choose from
Bad Features ::
- RC-XD ~ Needs to require more kills either 4/5
- Care Package Boundry ~ Often i have seen care packages being dropped outside of the map, add a boundry where if the drop smoke falls off the map the package lands inside the map closest to the smoke
- Open/Close & Break through doors ~ I have often come accross doors that do lead into an open area but cannot be opened, have it so most doors you can open and close or even kick down
- Prestige ~ Prestige needs to be more worth while other than unlocking a few extra items and gaining a new emblem
- Camo ~ You currently cannot choose and save your prefered camo suit in CC, its auto selected each map, let players choose, would give more of a reasons to have different classes, classes designed for different conditions and maps.
- *Knife !-- This has been resolved --!

What i would like to see ::
- Timed explosive devices ~ for strategic placement with either 5, 10, 20 or 30 sec delay
- Wire Trap ~ C4 addition :: wire two packets of C4 as a foot trap, good for rout defence :: wire trigger takes the tactical slot in CC
- Larger Maps ~ For those who like to camp with a sniper rifle
- More PPS ~ More players per side increased to 15/20 a side
- **Y Button ~ When wielding an LMG with feet pressing and holding Y while prone will set down the feet for better accuracy, can be used on window ledges, sandbag stacks, broken walls and blown up cars. Can be done on other objects as well and also can be done for sniper rifles for better accuracy.
- **Day/Night ~ It would be nice that all maps had day, night, dusk and dawn eniroments to them, giving advantages and disadvantages, night vision might be needed for some maps which would go within the equipment slot or laser sight attatchments for guns.
- **Kill class streaks ~ save kill streaks to CC, would make choosing KS better depending on the game mode being played.
