The very most important thing to me is retaining the core zombies gameplay experience. No exo suits or boosting. No bank. it should be a game with strategy from start to finish. I would like to see instead of brand new experimental ideas (like we saw so much of in BO2) some improvements and innovations to already proven great ideas (such as perks and pack-a-punch) I think it would be a great time to try and implement some of the long time ideas like perk combo's, multiple pack-a-punch, attachments, etc. To have maximum success, i think its time to get back to basics, and then innovate from there instead of a lot of wild crazy new ideas.

right. @Slade described it very well. To your point of why? Why do we have any customizations? Its for fun! makes for originality and ability to express your individuality through cosmetic changes to your gun. The key is you can save the "variants" and then use them in your classes

As of today, the times seem to be a bit quicker than before. In my experience

This may be true, but from what I have seen, Sony as a whole is really hurting on the bottom line. PS4 has been a bright spot in an otherwise miserable time for them. Microsoft could easily outbid Sony if they wanted to, but whether or not they want to remains to be seen

Just a few notes. I am not particularly fond of the placement of the quote and multiquote options. every forum i've ever seen those have been in the bottom right of posts not bottom left. just a minor detail but it is familiar. The speed on PC/laptop is not as good as previously in my experience. Im pleased with the amount of features and info and everything, but it is pretty wonky aesthetically -
Black Ops 3 Cover Art & Description
The Clay Bird replied to LiamFTWinter's topic in BOIII News & Announcements
Here's the thing about the exo suits. They were fun for about 3 hours. Now it is just annoying. I get that some people would be disappointed with the slower pace of no exos, but far more people will be turned off if there are legit exo or advanced movements. advanced warfare is such a clusterfuck, it is far too chaotic. headshot's are complete luck with how people zip and zap back and forht at 100 mph. Im fine with it being an every 3 year thing, but they better listen to the fans, or there will be a noticeable hit to sales imo. Thank god the zombies story is developed enough that they can do something completely different with it than with campaign/mp and nobody will bat an eye -
Not sure if it's a rule breach, I'm also fairly new here! I may have just deleted it by mistake, though. this is a little off topic, but it is fantastic that we are gaining new members who are being so active in the forums. Welcome aboard guys, it is going to be a wild ride the next 18 months or so!

honestly, when adjusted for inflation, and factoring in the incredible things we get with games today, $60 is a bargain compared to what they could justify selling games for. NES games were $60-$70 back in 1990. we should be paying $100 for games today based off of inflation alone, much less the crazy amount of content we get compared to NES/SNES times. I understand people not liking the microtransaction system. I really do. Stuff is expensive. Im just saying, the alternative could be a lot worse. Exactly. Its also amazing that NES games were around the same price and when you beat them, they'd have about 10-50 names in the credits. Now, video game sound departments have more names then that. So its amazing that they can keep the price where its been thanks to games being so popular now. I'll admit though, that if a game tried to raise the price to $65, I'd be out. Don't want give in to any price increase because once we do it will sky rocket. And this will be the argument they make to shut us up. As long as they are still making profits, I don't want to see that number change. They are still making profits, but this is why I can't complain about DLC or microtransactions. They could definitely justify raising the standard price for full games, but i'm content with maintaining the $60 price point and giving in to optional content being offered to supplement their bottom line -

But if someone buys the game for the zombie content on the disk, those same people would buy the DLC anyway. DLC has been up in sales because all CoD titles now offer these extra coop maps and stories and not just MP maps like MW3 did. If they didn't put Zombie material on the disk and waited for DLC, they might hurt their sales. People like me wouldn't buy the game, like I didn't with Ghosts and AW. Then when the DLC comes out, it makes the decision of buying it that much harder since now I have to consider spending $60 for the game and then $15 or $50 for DLC. In AWs case, the zombie content does look fun, but there's not enough there for me to invest that much. Had their been zombie material on the disk and I spent the money then, the DLC would have been a no brainer. Also, Activision puts a lot of importance in their release sales. Hence why they push pre-orders and in Ghosts case, tried to juice up the numbers. So putting Zombies on the disk and advertising it is the best way to make sure those sales go back up to where BO2's were. i didnt like the dirty zombies paywall tactics of advanced warfare either, its why i never bought the game until i found it online for 30$. i got a dlc and will get the better of the next 2 dlcs. either way i will not be spending more than 60$ on this game. when did 60$ become not enough? honestly, when adjusted for inflation, and factoring in the incredible things we get with games today, $60 is a bargain compared to what they could justify selling games for. NES games were $60-$70 back in 1990. we should be paying $100 for games today based off of inflation alone, much less the crazy amount of content we get compared to NES/SNES times.
