COD Twitter Buzz… Leave a Twitter on here!
FourTwoZero’s Twitter feed has been a blast,… at last a developer who wants to hear about your views about a game that you are going to pay for! So what has happened is people from across the globe have twittered their fingers off and tried to get their say in what they think should be in the game, and hoping that their views will be heeded. Now, I personally have been checking on the twitter feed and have noticed some big issues that keep coming up throughout the time of the feed, and i genuinely hope IW boys do take it into account, I mean its not like as if we wont go out and not buy COD modern warfare 2 but we will be ever so slightly disappointed that “our” views weren’t listened to and were brushed away. However i thought it would be Coooool if we could compile a genuine list of things that we DO and DO NOT want to see in the game…
General Feeling….
From the countless hours that i have watched the feed on my screen i have noticed a few “Buzz” themes that stuck out more than others. What i mean is that when a fan twitters a really good idea we see not only the Thumbs go up but also other fans give their view on the same topic! So here are the top 5 Buzz themes that weve noticed from the feed…
1. “NO MORE JUGGERNAUGHT PLEASE”
Ok, i admit i use juggernaut, it has to be used, especially when you got a small SMG going up against a LMG or Sniper Rifle…. people have gotta survive right??? However from across the board were seeing that more and more people are disliking the idea that a player can survive even though hes had his chest doused with HUGE .50cal bullets, it does take away the realism that each weapon brings. So in essence you might as well change that trademark “rattatatat” sound of an AK47 to a cat “miaow” as that’s about as much damage that you will do anyway if your target has Juggernaut on!
- personally i still want juggernaut!

Jugg?
2. “I Love the M16 and G36c, please keep them in the game!”
Strangely, and i do say strangely, is that a lot of people who adore these two weapons, feel as though there is a conspiracy against them. Not only fans on the Twitter feed are saying they love these guns, but they are insistent that IW keep them in the game! Now i don’t know how special these weapons are in the game or how much IW don’t like them, but i can be certain that these two weapons are going to be in the MW2.
- Question is what would you like to see different about these two weapons? AUTO and Manual fire perhaps or folding stock options???
3. “Please GOD dont put Vehicles in the game! PLEASE GOD PLEASE NO, PLEAAAAASE, NO NO NO NO NO”
In a less dramatic fashion many and i say many fans have been sayin that they dont want vehicles. And i can understand why, COD World At War was trying to be something it could not be…. which is of course EA’s Battlefield. Why it cant be like BF is that the maps are smaller and the vehicles are more rudimentary to those in Battlefield. Then you have the almost invinicbile tanks with huge artillery rounds that can take out three or four people in one area, i can imagine what it would be like in COD modern warfare 2 if it did have the latest armoured vehicles and tanks, itd be a complete unbalance and would all end in tears.
- Make the maps bigger have more vehicles, but the game will need more players per map!
4. “We Want more upgrades on everything.. Guns Clothing Ammo Cammo etc..”
70% of the feed is full of people who feel as tho they need more upgrades on the already existant features of the game, so more cammo, colours for guns, more Scopes, Silenced pistols etc, HOWEVER a lot of fans were also toying with the idea of customising weapons so being able to choose two features for a weapons, so being able to have both silencer and scope and not have to compromise between the two for a single gun.
- Simplicity is beauty i say, customising the game will make the fun element go out the window, – OLD WII master

more of these?
5. ???
Of course there is no 5, five is for the fans to decide what it is. SO leave a comment and let us know what you think should be FIVE!
Alright, I fight with friends and enemies alike with these statements but here goes.
juggy gets verbaly raped by the day and for anyone who knows call of duty it is a balanced perk with stopping power so if you take away juggy they would have to remove stopping power and if you remove stopping power it would basicly have everyone with juggy. So personaly before I suggest the removal of a balanced perk, why not suggest something that would help game play? There is a suggested perk I’ve heard of that would cause streaks to continue (i.e. 3 = uav 5 = as 7 = heli 10 = uav 12 = as 15 = heli, etc.).
VEHICLES… only a few words on this, if you got waw you know where i’m coming from. COD IS A FPS NOT FIRST PERSON VEHICULAR HOMICIDE. enough said. :\
now for my own ideas, bring camo back, give pistols camo, keep one of the few good ideas treyarch had, the more custom classes the better, make it to where there is a hardcore and a regular version for each game so people will stfu about realism, add a system kind of like Halos theater that way people don’t have to take our word about some ass kicking they can see the ass kicking and wish they’re on your team next time. If you have R6V2 or GOW2 you will probably agree with this, I personally don’t always feel like online and as much as I wanted COD co-op I hated WaWs storyline (and they took my favorite parts of it out of co-op) but co-op isn’t what im getting at, what I am going for is being able to fill maps with enemy AI and mess with them I don’t care if its smart AI (just mess around in R6V2 terrorist hunt and look how retarded these guys are, they’ll run up to you and throw a flash bang LOL?) And personaly I have fun with Nazi zombies (one of the three things that I like that treyarch did..) I don’t expect IW to steal it and personaly I wouldn’t care if they made an arabic one, an alien one, or what ever else you can think of…
Ideas for Hard Core, make helicopters take only one rpg, or atleast lower their bullet damage, doesn’t it suck ass being one hit by them especially if you are on a streak? (i’ve mentioned this before and was told this “If you didn’t suck in HC you wouldn’t have to deal with helicopters”. I like ego-maniacs as much as the next guy but all it takes is one or two newbies to give a guy a 7 KS without being noticed.) I know that is alot of ideas right there but if you play enough hardcore you know what im getting at.
Now of course who doesn’t want new guns? Personaly I belive each class should be even, look at MW there are 7 assault rifles, 5 SMGs, 3 LMGs, 2 shotties, and 5 snipers, make it interesting (and for those who will probably no life 10th prest make it to where there are more camo options, maybe even a custom color one? This of course will make it take longer to reach gold weapons but also make it more challenging. Now for what guns, I could honestly careless give me some more semi-autos, some SMGs that can spray like no tommorow, and an accurate rifle with head exploding potential (another thing treyarch actually did right was the iron-sight bolt rifles I personaly loved that but hated their scopes and wouldnt mind it in mw2) and i’m happier than a kid in a candy store.
Now about something that has always made a lobby go from laughs to quick hell. The m-16 is overpowered, I don’t care if you agree because you probably won’t admit it if you abuse it (I mean c’mon little to no recoil, it’s “burst” can seemingly act as if it is one bullet, no sway, its accuracy is so high you can easily bull shit someone with a hip-aimed burst and if it is kept I think its power should be strongly dealt with.) Just compare it to other guns lets see what it takes to make an m-16.
- G3’s accuracy due to the recoil.
- A sniper’s range, go ahead all you need is a good eye and you can pick any sniper off at a distance and you know you have done it, don’t lie.
- MP44’s stopping power, they both do 40 damage untill about the same distance (1500 in-game yards, about the length of 6 of the crates on shipment add it up, its a decent distance) and then drop to 30 (no stopping power) and just look at the downside of using such an awesome and infamous gun and compared to the M-16 the MP44 might as well be a nail gun.
- The P90’s fire rate, now I know that sounds made up but the fact is the 3 bullets that are shot are fired at the same exact rate as the P90 (which when mixed with hardly any recoil, unlike the P90) cause that effect that I stated earlier which sometimes causes the burst to seem as one bullet, now mind you due to the pause between the bursts the fire rate lands inbetween the M60 and the W1200 but these guns don’t have a whole lot to make up for that rate, but the M-16 sure the hell does.
- NO IDLE, WTF? I understand this gun is an accuracy rifle but even pistols got an idle, the G36C, the M4 (which is basicly a shorter version of an M-16), the AK-74u, and the AK47 idle, and the reason only they idle besides pistols and snipers is because they would have been considered over powered without the idle, but wait, if you shoot the M4 bursted isn’t it an M-16 with an idle? Nope, take away the M4s idle and it would probably still not be able to compare with this this thing especially so at a range due to the M4s recoil that almost matches the M-16 (put double tap on the M-16 and it almost is a full auto and you can get a view of its recoil and its still close to nothing) Now the M4 has a 850 RPM fire rate which if you fire 3 bullets means there is little chance it would cause the M-16s effect even with a good shot, besides the fact that it also only does 30 at the ranges the M-16 does 40 at and 20 at the ranges the M-16 does 30.
- It has more bull shit in its clip than 1000 bulls could produce in 5 years.
So go ahead and doubt, cuss me for it, I don’t care but its OP and maybe i’ll have to deal with it in MW2 but when you look at this I would only HOPE that IW does something about that. But one last thing, think of the majority of situations in MW and tell me how many guns would come so close to the top as this one? By the stats here there are few rifles that can touch it in range, none that can touch its bursts RPM (the SMGs can but have fun using their recoil ridden accuracy at that distance.) the only rifle that comes close to its accuracy is the G3, and the only thing that could make it worse is to give people a red dot AND a silencer.
What am I getting at? Remove the M-16 give me more maps and a few new guns, reset my prestige, and take 70 bucks from me and i’ll be happy.
All in all once it is said and done, I don’t care what they do as long as they don’t make another WaW, and I know i’ve said alot and if they did somehow magicly see my post, notice a dedicated COD player and listen to him and not the majority of 10 year olds I would say go double disc set, one for campaign and one for online.
