Zombie Challenges & Combat Record

[DaPikmin]

Zombie Challenges. Zombie Challenges are sent out every week by Treyarch. If Zombies is in COD Elite, this could be incorporated. So every week, Treyarch sends out a challenge for Zombies. It could be anything, from "Get to Round __" to "Use your knife only to get to round __".

For example:

Week 1 Challenge: Knife Only! All players must use only their knife and get to Round 15.

Week 2 Challenge: Pistol Only! All players must only use a pistol and knife, and get to Round 15.

There could even be achievements/trophies for them. Example: Complete your first Zombie Challenge. Complete 5 Zombie Challenges.

Rewards are in-game rewards. Rewards are up to Treyarch.

I hope you guys know where I'm going with this.

Combat Record for Zombies. Yes, people have already said stuff about this. But just giving my idea of what should be on it. (These can be put in any order)

Page 1:

Player Rank

Total Zombies Killed

Total Number of Downs

Total Number of Revives

Total Number of Points

Highest Round (For Example, Round __ on Der Riese)

Longest Zombie Game

Total Zombie Game Time

Page 2:

Recent Game

(Shows stats of the most recent game the player has played, host game ends/disconnections do not count)

Page 3:

Zombie Records

(This page shows the records of the player for each map, like you would see on the leaderboard.)

Just sharing my ideas. :)

As far as earning perks with in-game challenges, that kinda goes along with the whole ranking system idea a few of us have been throwing around constantly.

As far as zombies stands, right now, the way everything is and the way we know and love it is great. So, I understand how those who are against it, would normally be concerned, but ultimately zombies is about overdue of a REAL change of pace. Since day one, the good 'ol NDU days, zombies had continually just basically added more and more elements and items to each and every map that is available today. Which, granted, does keep things somewhat fresh and new, but when you back it up to the core foundation of zombies gameplay, it's the exact same routine. And since the Blops maps, really the ONLY thing that's an option to change it up somewhat, is buy expending most of your energy going for the EE reward in each map. Which again, same routine, different round.

So, I think of Treyarch implemented a ranking system purely for zombies in the next installment, the zombies franchise would be jump up in, well, awesomeness ten fold. And here's why exactly:

1. People generally play for keeps. People don't really think about it much, but a big part of why so many people are addicted to the multiplayer field of CoD is because they are continually gaining something. New weapons, XP, gear, etc. I know for a fact that I'd actually probably get fairly bored pretty quick with multiplayer, if I didn't have the satisfaction of always ranking up, always reaching a new level, accomplishing something more for myself and my profile, rather than just killing off other players all day, I'd probably stop playing much after the first couple months.

2. New ways to approach the field of zombies. Zombie fanatics such as ourselves, are constantly making goals and setting expectations, or handicapping ourselves to certain perks or weapons to mix things up a bit, challenge ourselves now and then rather than just following the same old routine we know will get us to that really high round. Well, what if you were also rewarded for said challenges? What if you unlocked something, earned a challenge worth 10k XP because you got to round 50 or 100? Or, unlocked attachments for a weapon you used for so many rounds or got so many kills for? The possibilities are endless. There are LOADS of challenges in multiplayer, I know for a fact I'd try all sorts of challenges more willingly if they meant something more than just for "shits and giggles".

And, here's the kicker folks, all this wouldn't tamper with zombies one bit. It would be still be the same old zombies, same old stuff, just with challenges and XP/Ranking system added. I've been so hyped up about this, I'm sure a lot of you have seen the ideal prestige badges I made up just for zombies that, as we speak, are working on implementing her into the medals system just for fun!

If you haven't already, I'd recommend watching some videos on "WaW Realism Mods", they are the closest thing to everything I have mentioned, and I think it would be great to have. And, of course, still have the option for the plain jane zombies we know and love.

Nuff said.
