I'll get the train a rollin'!
1) Forget helicopters. Get a 10 kill streak and you can call in a tank that crushes everbody and everything!
2) Smoke grenades make the whole map covered with thick grey smoke!
3) Bouncy castles.
Now go! We need 98 more things, then I will get in touch with IW annd make these things happen! Seriously.

Maybe this should be a wishlist for CoD5, rather than a want list for CoD4. I don't know why, thought, it would just make more sense. Anyway, without further ado, here are my ideas for any updates for CoD4.
While I've always been happy with the options available when customising your weapons, I was let down when you couldn't change your soldiers camoflauge at will. They should allow the option to choose what colour your suit should be, as well as giving options like gilly colour, gun colour and give you the option for goggles.
Moving on from that, there should be an option for armour. It could cost you, mind, like 500XP or something like that, and the armour could degrade the more it's shot, but it would be nice to have the option to have a bit more safety.
Allow an 'extraction' for players who are in need of health and ammo. A helicopter could pick you up, recover all damage done and replenish all ammo lost, and then drop you off - with you controlling yourself as you parachute back into battle.
They should bring back the 'Medic' class from CoD1. I find it really annoying when a team-mate is downed but you can't help them. On CoD1, the medic was given a limited amount of health packs to use on himself or his team-mates. Bring 'em back.
That's all for now. I might update later...

Would like to have more weapons added, and of course the relevant challenges to accompany them....
Would ideal if sorted the "host" issue, as well as improving the lobby system, by letting users choose which map to enter etc....a la COD3,
And is it just me, or does anyone else have the same problem, where you leave a lobby only to be thrown back in, time after time?!?!

The ability to use a perk up for adding two attachments to your gun, For example, silencer and ACOG, now I wouldown with that :D

Hand signals that you can use to communicate to teammates - to many people don't use mic's and when they do don't cummunicate tactics
Love the option to call in Tank you earned one after 7 kill that you could get in. Would be cool on large maps. Airstike on shipment is dumb, need something else on small maps.
Custom character's and uniform, one for each side
Trip Line for perk, like claymore but line people can't see that you could put between doorways, trees.
Invite random people to private match, like if I only have 4 in my room open the room for others to join. Then we could select maps to play on.

Split screen co-op campaign and split screen co-op online mode.:p
God I wish that would patch this or have it as a DLC feature, this would add some much replay value to this game.
Vehicles - ability to drive the cars and tanks, could you imagine on some of the boards getting in a car with your teammates shooting out of it and running over players or someone throwing a grenade or rocket at the car!
MR_T
May 28th, 2008, 03:41 PM
vehicles, miss them so much from COD3
control of the heli's, air strikes. i know u can ask where to stick an airstrike but would be class to have a birds eye view of the battlefield as u fly over choosing where to drop it.
gun jamming - yes it does happen occasionaly and would be hilarious watching somebody trying to shoot you only for their gun to jam. this should only happen on very rare occasions though

Other options instead of Knife, like Cheesewire for strangle kills, or a crossbow.
Trip wires, like clays but can be attached to walls at any height
double pistols
I was also thinking like a drone that if you get enough kills you can call it in and an areial realtime view would show on ur PSP.
Also remote control car bombs, controled by psp, or u need to hide and control it.
Survellance cams, so u can plant them and see people coming behind u, good for the snipers.
What about static mortar nest (like the static mg), and loss the nade launchers

The knife should not be way more powerful than a gun, the animation is awful too. It should gut the player, then take it out quickly and watch the body drop. I don't think it even touches the body.

totally agree, you get one challenge to take out a heli then no xp for it any other time. i take them out nearly every time they come along except on shipment where you dont have the time to do it aanyway.

Make the user interface for online like Socom. Join friends in games via the friends list, have actual lobbies, friends/clan invite options in games, a vote system for idiot teamkillers and people who are not actually playing during a round and the abiltiy to deselect weapons for ranked rooms (snipers, grenade launchers and rocket launchers) so people who actually have skills have more of an impact than campers and punks who use 203's and RPG's.

There are some great ideas here people really should submit this to Inifinity Ward. I think the best so far are.
1, Trip wires you could attach to walls so you could put it across a doorway. Obviously the wire cant be too long or people would trip wire the whole map lol
2, Six axis control of the RPG
3, I agree with points for taking out a Heli but just +10 or the Heli's would be useless as everyone will just take out your heli as soon as its there.
4, An extra air strike when you get to 15 kill streak, or even UAV at 15 then Air Strike at 20, heli at 30 (wishful thinking haha)
5, Also something similar to the escort the VIP mode in R6V2
6, 2 scopes (when you get to 55) but you lose the first perk slot
7, More rewards for Prestige. I have stuck on third for a long time now, would be better to have something to tempt me other then a different badge, like people have said maybe certain outfits
8, A Gas trap!! When say something is triggered by someone walking into a room the room is filled with poison gas that kills anyone within a few meters. You could also have the gas mask as a perk to defend against this. You have to press a random button combo to put it on in time
9, I like the tank idea or similar vehicle but maybe once you get a 12 kill streak. And one fo your team has to drive it and another shoot, and it can be taken down in a similar way to a Heli.
10, just an idea but say for every 1000 kills you do you earn 1 ultimate airstrike where 20 planes terrorise a team for 1 minute or something lol.
11, Destrucable environments (Battlefield i know). Not OTT but maybe with thin walls and such some of the bricks would fly off.
12, With this the ability to pick up a brick and throw it at people/hit people with it and a relevant challenge
13, A catapult you could stick almost anything in, C4, People, Clamores, Grenades, Guns.
14, Of course more guns!
15, Thermal goggles perk maybe after 10th Prestige so you can see people threw walls (although would be a bit unfair in S&D) May it could mean you lose 2 perk slots
16, The ability to pick and a dead body and throw it! That would be hilarious lol

rexdeath
June 2nd, 2008, 09:24 PM
lets be honest some of these ideas are stupid I can't believe the thread starter suggested bouncy castles!!!!
1) A decent ranking system would be good, not the one they've got now where the more you play it the higher ranked you are.
2) Allow custom settings which will be unranked because the 'host' will have an unfair advantage
3) No parties on ranked matches as really good players invite other people of the same skill, and makes it unfair for a good player on an average team (happens to me alot)
4)NO HELICOPTORS they're just easy to die from and too difficult get rid off, unless they fit a 'heli lock on' to the rpg!!

Have the option for 2rd person like Socom did. I love watching on S&D after I die, the graphics and textures looks VERY good on the characters, what a shame.

One persons 'it', they kill someone, they're 'it'!
Or Virus like in timesplitters, one persons on, the more they kill the more on their team, last man without the virus wins!!!!!!!!
You love it you slaags!

June 3rd, 2008, 12:00 PM
What about a super air strike? Get a 30 (possibly higher) kill streak and then your team gets air lifted and you see the entire battlefield get wiped out by a massive air strike and your team automatically wins. This would be further enhanced by on screen messages saying 'player 'x' is nearing the super air strike kill streak' and then your team would have to go all out to find him to avoid losing the game.
I definitely think you should get points for taking out a chopper too, many times I find it's only me thats trying to shoot the thing out of the sky whilst my team carry on regardless and happy to be taken out by it.

Better clan system
Last man standing mode - e.g. only have 1 life and the last man alive wing
King Of The Hill mode, that would be cool
Bigger maps
Humvee's
Heat seeking rocket launcher
Just a few
MurrayStateGrad
June 3rd, 2008, 08:19 PM
Just my two cents, but I see lots of people wanting larger maps and vehicles. DUMBEST IDEA EVER!! Any Socom fans know exactly what I'm talking about. Large maps and vehicles single handedly ruined all the games in the series after Socom II. Vehicles and sprawling maps where you never see anyone unless it's through the scope of a sniper rifle killed the experience and would do the same for CoD4. Close qurters combat keeps it fresh and fun. Wondering around praying to see a form of human life before the timer ends is horrible. Keep the style the same just minor tweaks are needed to fine tune an already amazing game. Just say no to vehicles kiddies.

Thats why you don't run in the open. Heli's are simple to get rid of, Use an Rpg or the Saw machine gun.

How about if you get shot in the chest, you go down fast, start bleeding profusely, screming for help, screaming in pain... you get 10 more seconds to live... then you die.
I know there is a Last Man Standing option. I am suggesting the screaming and the blood. =)

It'll be nice while in last stand mode to be able to throw some c4 out and blow some enemys up.
The Screaming would be useless so would the bleeding profusely part, put if there was medi kits then the bleeding part would be cool, as in a medic would be on your team and he'll come a guard you then heal you.

Some Good and bad idea's, My favourite are no Heli's, and if they insist then a RPG lock on would be good and defo some points for taking it down.
Airstrikes annoy me too, no getting out of it, seems a little unfair.
dogs instead would be a good idea, at least you have a chance, maybe 2 dogs for each 5 kills, so if you get 10 you get another 2 etc....
a perk for 2 attachments to weapons would be good, or even a perk to add a silencer so you can add a scope.
campers/snipers annoy me a lil, but thats down to peoples playing prefernece rather than the game, and it makes killcam a good feature :)
Maybe bonus points for taking out people in prone or bonus points for head shots.
the game is good as it is and I dont think you will find every1 would want the same changes, i hate heli's and airstrikes, think they're unfair, but i still use them, i think uav again at 6 and 9 kills etc... airstraike at 10 15 .
interesting to hear ppls views and idea's, but unless every1 agrees on something improving the game for 1 would spoil it for another.
As for prestige mode, I am about 3000XP away so I may have an opinion later on tonight.
Jaeger
July 3rd, 2008, 11:07 PM
I think the player should get extra points for taking down a helicopter. You get extra XP when you take one down for the first time, but you get no points after that.

Better vsual customizations. I hate that you can't choose how your soldier looks at all. And better/more color options for custom camo on the guns. I want a pink gun (seriously). They could have made it so you get a custom color slider the same way you can change your emblems color in Warhawk.

Lil_Mermaid_Girl
July 4th, 2008, 11:21 PM
That's true too. I ignore choppers, you don't get anything for taking them down besides satisfaction and knowing less of your teammates are gonna die from it. It's usually too much work though.
The ony two things would get me playing CoD4 again would be to support trophies or add better customizations like I said in my previous post.
MrG
July 5th, 2008, 02:09 AM
Smoke grenades should go off in your hand like frags if you cook them for long enough, so you could be engulfed in a cloud of smoke, where ever you go! But since I've given up CoD4 in favor of BF:BC, it doesn't really matter to me anyway, but it would've been fun while I played it.
