Agreed, I think online co-op and split-screen would be a great addition. Plus keeping the core mechanics the same, but make the game longer and the online component a little more fair. Especially with spawn-bombing and team killers.

"A campaign that focuses on one story would be nice even though I love Price"

Maybe a story where Price meets up with US military that way you still get to play as him! WIN!!! :)

Call of Duty 4: Moderner Combat.

I'd like to see a Zombie mode. That's a great addition. Although it this, it would be what, insurgent zombie mode?

First starters how about fixing what we have to begin with in the sequel?

Like for starters...


1. No grenade launchers in Hardcore Search or at the least, if we have to beg, better level design considerations that eliminate match spawn points in HC Search.

2. Stopping power cancels Juggernaut.

3. Solid hit detection. If the screen shows an hit X, no excuses on the programmers' end.

4. Accurate realistic weapon damage to distance ratios so no one can snipe with a pistol.

5. Last stand doesn't get a millisecond of god mode invulnerability, pistol damage set at double or perfect aim without disorientation. I'd give them a crawl even. Plus whomever is revived only gets extended life but still bleeds out with time or something. He can't just be all good.

6. No HALO jumping. You jump and it can;t be a Michael Jordan bunny hopper with perfect aim. That just can't be.

7. Better map spawning. No more getting spawned behind, in cross fire or under/in aerial strikes.

8. Better community support than just one map pack created by PC contest winners or revamped maps alone.

9. Helicopters are no longer all seeing or all knowing. Who hasn't been shot dead through a wall after spawning there and not moving into sight by the all knowing helicopter?

10. Team Killing punished similarly to COD:W@W

11. At least no vehicles in Hardcore game types if they must be added now.

12. All game types come in Hardcore

13. No off the map glitches or retarded jumping around level design edges into supposedly "strategic" areas. SUPER LAME. You get off map through any means & you instantly die, period.

stopping power does cancel out juggernaut and there is accurate weapon damage over range. that's partly what the range thing is for. beyond that range, it loses damage.

Stopping power does squat to juggernaut as experience has shown your chances are too close to not having it at all. Plus you are either being an apologist, a fanboy or plain inexperienced enough to even say or think for one second that weapon damage, distance to damage ratios or even hit detection in this game isn't unprofessionally poor at best.

Take the awesome gameplay of COD4 and add in Bungie style community support....

Replays, photos, stats......

and you'll have the perfect marriage. Add more perks and a choice of what you want for getting a 7 kill streak (i.e. helicopter, 3 airstrikes, tanks, etc...). All I know is I'm waiting on MW2 over WAW. I love Call of Duty 4. Still love Halo 3. If they got rid of team killing... gave more penalties for quitting, revamped their matchmaking so it's more balanced... I might have time to juggle both. But for now... COD4 is the best MP experience on XBL.

To add what Johnny Neat and others said,
1
Map packs free and tools included like Little Big Planet, or more updated packs cause some of those maps in LBP are not worth the time
2
Exact gameplay!! which means good enough graphics, (I mean whats the use of killer graphics if the games plays like garbage)
3
If you want to really get hardcore remove X when you hit em. You gotta figure out they re dead or show X in a replay only if you do get a piece of em. suggestions? Like the crawling around last stand and ....if you were in last stand why wouldn't you pull out your assault rifle or any primary weapon or even your RPG?
4
multiplayer "real use" of night vision. I would never use nightvision cause you could still see good enough without and it was just a bother to go back and forth and more disorientating Make night/ or dark rooms pitch black, so you couldn't see anything if you accidentally turned em off or maybe just more pitch black areas to hide in?
5
perks would be cool with ACOG with a silencer but I am not holding my breath, maybe save that for kill streaks? Juggernaut and stopping power are negated in Hardcore, maybe unlock blueing or customizable camo or other metallics..... O-YEAH I have always wanted an ACOG with the DESERT EAGLE! WTF
6
spawn points suck only if you are playing lame headquarters but definitely stop noob tube spawn shots. Not realistic. But also part of the strategy in playing. Maybe less points given or not used for kill streak. Between that and getting 3 frags not much effort/strategy/skill is needed.
???

I'm way late to make comments, but I'm curious if people would like this idea:

A multiplayer game mode where each team starts at either end of the map, as usual. As players die, they do no respawn. When a whole team is wiped out, then they one of them gets to choose the respawn point, and they all roll in on a truck or from a helicopter or something like that.

The other team does not get to respawn at this point. Whoever's left has to take on the entire other team, but when they all get wiped out, they choose their respawn point.

The game is on a time limit or on a "forced respawn" limit. Also, to prevent it from becoming a whole team trying to find the sole survivor on a big map, the dead players from a team respawn every two minutes, even if they haven't been completely wiped out.

I think this mode would be really cool. No more respawn point camping, and it would force teams to be a little more strategic and not just run n' gun.

If I look down, I should be able to see my legs. Is that really too much to ask?

Please recognize a good thing when you have it. If we wanted lazer guns we would buy star wars or something, keep it modern. COD4MW is a very good game. It is as balanced as could be expected. If you add anything crazy I can guarantee at least half your customer base will go elsewhere, like to the BF or Farcry series.

It isn't broken, don't feel the need to fix it. Just enhance it subtly if you must. New maps of course would be great. A larger ranked server would be good too, 32 is weak.

Ghost Recon was great, GR Advanced Warfighter I&II sucked. They fixed something that wasn't broken. People were pissed they wasted their money.

Be careful, The Battlefield series may jump on a chance to get people back into the Modern Theatre with a game of their own if you foul this one.

Here's to hoping you care about your customers and not the quick buck alone.

they should allow you to select different fire modes on your weapon. for instance on the M-16 you should be able to select from single fire, 2 round burst ,and fully automatic

and also, fix it to where other players can see what way you are facing. there has been a number of time where i would see someone and think thay couldn`t see me due to the face that on my screen that were not looking at me. then on the kill cam i was in there line of site the hole time.

I've been a COD fan since the beginning. I absolutely fell in love with COD4 and cant wait tell COD-MW2 comes out!! But i do believe there are a few things that could be improved upon.
Its kind of ridiculous when you sneak up on someone sniping and unload a few round into their head and they are still able to turn and potentially kill you.
The helicopter seems to be able to be able to shoot you even though realistically you're well hidden which brings me to this, you should be able to pilot the helicopter to remove the computer rapeing.
I dont understand when adding certain scopes it adds distance but reduces accuracy...OXYMORON!
Also you should be able to attach multiple attachments to the gun at a time such as a silencer and a red dot.
A zooming in and out scope would be tight, along with more patterns of camo. You should have two completely customizable uniforms, one marines other terrorist, and maybe a third party army/mercenary unit such as "blackwater" .
Also have more voice overs so they dont say the same thing at the end and beginning of every round.
Either way im shure COD-MW2 is gunna be badass, im just throwing a couple ideas out there.

For MP, I would like to see a bunker buster reward for, say, a ten or fifteen kill streak. When ever you get an airstrike or helicopter on a mostly indoor map, they are useless. Being able to have a anstrike reward that'd kill enemies inside buildings would be cool.

personally things i would like to see...
1. customizable players ghilli, tux, arab getup, fatigues etc.
2. multiple attachments except noob tube
3. a sniper rifle is extremely accurate make it a pinpoint hipfire crosshair with slow reloading
4. interactive maps, hide in cars etc
5. random weapons lying around in maps
6. weight allowance for soldiers, ex 300lb worth of equipment, as many guns as u can carry with speed being directly related to weights heavy=slow
7. upgradeable characters, make them stronger better shots etc..
8.vehicle usage choppers hummers tanks...
9. different seperate scenario maps for people that like different stuff like assault people get a medium sized map, spec ops peeps get a smaller map and snipers get a huge relatively open map for long shots.
10. sniper map option for 30 seconds of time to hide being invisible before the game actually starts.
11. definitely longer 1p mode
12. more perks and spots for perks ex: 5 perk max
13. enlist civilian help...? possible?
14. realistic body armor in levels...
15. level possiblilities: forrest levels, inner city levels, desert levels, mountain levels all types of terrain...
16. different scenarios... terrorists and good guys, good guys trying to save someone from the terrorists online play.. random stuff
17. paintball mode..
18.find a way to combat LAG PLEASE...
19. encorporate all nationalities allowing for only that nationalities weapons to be used until picked up in a game then available for use.
20. realistic damage if shot, limp or only be able to use one arm depending on where youve been shot...body and headshot = death
21. more weapons
22. glitch proof and hack proof

i think these would be some pretty kick a** ideas if you dont like them remember its only my opinion what do ya'll think about em? just out of curiosity...

you need to add 4 player co-op mode to go online. so we don't have to keep passing the controller around.

cod range in conclusion:what a beautiful range of first person shooters.i know it could be argued but both the guys/gals at treyarch & trinity ward work is good enough for me.
enough said about that, this is what i think cod 6 needs:

1.destructable enviroment
2.a variation of vehicles ie armoured jeep(not too many)
3.character customization again not over the top.
4.Genuine rewarding for the more experienced players.
5.More mind blowing perks ie a bot that covers you in online play.
6.stuff the idiots who say story mode needs work online play is the way to go.
7.more gore: the physics in which enemys blow apart & get shot.
8.more melee options such as proper knife fighting with a blocking button,fisticuffs?
9.employ great ideasman such as myself ...pattoandrew@gmail.com

How about this? Once you activate the Helicopter you should have the capability to operate the turret. It will be fair for both ends because as the turret operator you would need to identify the target to kill them. It will help the opposition because if the turret operator doesn't see them oh well. Perfect opportunity to be blown out of the air.

1.A zombies game like treyarchs CodWAW that was a big hit but the games pretty rubish.
2.An online suggestion box so you dont have to come on here if you have an idea.
3.the capability to change/customise what your man wears.
4.more camoflage colors for guns like yellow tiger,purple tiger,orange etc etc.
5.on the in-game lobby players can vote to kick a player out of the lobby and can vote to randomly change the teams again.
6.New Maps!!! with different themes like bombed ruins,swampy jungle, etc etc plus a snow map would be good.
7.new weapons but still keep some old weapons from cod4.
8.new attachments like flame thrower or say like tthere was\a fire from an explosion in a doorway you could have a fire extinguisher attachment.
9.new perks like one that makes you invincible to fire and that makes you plant/diffuse the bomb quicker plus you could have special goggles that could protect you frm getting stunned and flashed and heat sensitive goggles for smoke grenades.
10.Cooperative campaign.
11.last but not least a wierd but i believe could be fun idea a mini paintbal game for the side so if players complete the story and dont like playing online they could play the mini paintball either against computer or friends online.
