My fear on top of that is that they will try and balance the game by making noob tubes and other things less effective. I loved setting up a class with marathon/lightweight/commando and tac knife and doing nothing but running all over the map and lunging at people with a knife. Some of the ridiculous things you could do in that game honestly added a charm to it.
I'm perfectly fine if they don't remake the older cods. Good enough memories for me to move on. I'd prefer them to pool their resources into a cod as masterful as mw1 and mw2, or just try a whole new project altogether and move away from cod.
Feel free to join my games, man. I can literally hear you coming across half the map, so I'll be ready with an AA12. If you use anything besides ninja, then you're a free kill.
MW2 would be perfect with the following changes (feel free to add/edit):- Remove deathstreaks or at least painkiller.
- I would prefer the game to not have commando, but it's not a big deal due to how loud the perk is.
- Keep OMA in if you want, but at least prevent reloading tubes.
- Remove danger close.
- Add explosive damage delay for tubes only, but keep spawn nade timing.
- Remove Tac Inserts from FFA game mode.
- Remove game-ending feature of nuke if you want, but not a priority.
- Remove care package. It's not a big deal, but it's still not skill-related and is a variable that isn't needed. The same could be said about preds, but a 5-streak for a single kill versus a 4-streak getting you an AC130 is pretty different.
- Make the UMP require 1 more bullet if not using SP.
- Add mute-all feature.
- Allow party leader to bring entire team when switching lobbies.
- Alternate defense/offense in SnD.
The only true subjective change some CoD4 fans might prefer is making shotguns primaries. I don't mind shotgun secondaries, but I'd comprise to make these primary weapons. I would want to keep rafficas and g18s as secondaries though.
If we were going to make the perfect CoD, then we'd edit MW2, not CoD4 imo. MW2 is a better foundation. The maps core maps of MW2 are better in terms of balance, flanks, and especially clarity. The dark and low contrast, even with night vision, are just awful. The weapon balance is non-existent, plus the animation isn't as smooth as MW2, especially with knifing. We'd have to remove 3x frags as well.
