    Some ideas based on this video:
    - A method to upgrade weapon rarity easier in-game.
    - Duplicate perk schematics upgrade perks permanently in some form but there is a limit to it.
    - Permanent lower crafting cooldown for every duplicate schematic extracted but there is a limit to it.
    - Better contract loot pools based on tier (T1, T2, T3, Sigil/Elder Sigil).
    - More forms of engagement; new contracts, 4/6 player squads, more easter eggs, new modes, new areas to explore.
    - More stash space per Act completed.
    - More exciting zombies related rewards for completing story acts or certain challenges (kill 50 megabombs, etc).
    - Map needs more of a “zombies” atmosphere. (More unique or altered areas, sounds, music, less Warzone map feel)
    - More use for Rewards stash; One item can be placed into the rewards stash after successful exfil in T1 zone, two items if extracted in T2 zone, etc. (This is done in the lobby after match ends).
    - Essence banking system, unspent essence is kept when Exfil is successful. Can be accessed in-game at buy stations.
    - More end-of-game offerings. Currently we have 4 options when timer is low; Exfil, Act 4 Aether, Sigil, Red Worm. (5th/6th option, DC randomly or bleed out).
    Example end-of-game option:
    - “Endless” Aether Portal, no time limit, peak power can be attained before or within this area, enemies will progressively get harder the longer you survive. Timer counts up instead of down to keep track of how long you’ve survived. You can leave at any time via portal.
    I doubt any of this will be added, but we can dream. >.<
    We need more to keep us playing after all schematics are obtained & story acts are complete. Adding more permanent progression in multiple areas would give everyone a lot more to do.

      For all we know it could lead upto that, you play as your operator in the same tine limit as nornal grinding and prepping and then go to do the final mission which you complete and during the cutscene your operator at the end of whatever season/act mission dies and then one of the story characters takes the gear and items from your loadout in round based zombies with a timer that goes up so you can see how many waves you survived and how long it took you to get that far.

    Also, one of the main things I love about this game is that I feel like it's brought a lot of the zombies community so much closer. I love the fact that some of the better players (including myself) can go in and help the not so great players by either helping them beat the harder content in the game or just by dropping things for them that they would probably never get on their own. Not to mention, the fact that some people will go all the way across the map to revive someone that's been downed. I love that the zombies community has been helping each other out so much in this game. For example, I'm in a fb messenger group chat from a mwz fb group and people on there help each other out all the time. I've helped multiple people get their schematics from tiers 4/5 or the red worm. Sometimes I'll just hop in a game and drop a random like a flawless crystal, legendary tool, golden plates, etc. And their reaction is always great. One of my favorite things about zombies is the community itself. So big ups to all the mwz players that have been helping out others in the game!

    Just adding my two cents, I'd consider myself a hardcore casual, been playing since day one of WAW, my biggest issue is the timer, i like to run around and set up at my own pace but once i get everything ready, i need to exfil, remove the timer or double it.

      @zacwattus4320 I’ve never heard the term hardcore casual, but that’s me 💯. I’ve played every map since nacht on Waw, but don’t have the time to master every map or play more than an hour or so every week. I can hold my own but I’m not on the level that’s some of the biggest community streamers are. I’m going to offer a friendly counterpoint to your statement tho. If there’s an obnoxiously long time limit, do you think that would actually work in the long run with the state of the mode as of now? I feel like the timer isn’t as big if an issue as I felt on day one, but more so that every match didn’t feel “crucial”. It would be a setup round or a boss run round, and no in between. I feel like the biggest fix that could be made “tommorow” would be endgame + shit like collecting double schematics would reduce cooldown, or daily/weekly/etc challenges would give you a damage buff or something along those lines. What would you choose, extended timer as the game is now, or more to grind for? 🍻

    At first playing solo didn't really feel viable but then after getting used to it and going through the acts unlocking some schematics and finding a consistent weapon I had a great time and did most of the act missions solo. I've only started playing zombies this year with WaW and BO1 when I was going for the trophies and I'd say I had just as much fun on MWZ as a solo player

    • @bc86tbl
      @bc86tbl 9 месяцев назад

      I agree there should be a proper solo mode but honestly if someone takes your contract or vehicle spending an extra minute or two getting to another one isn't the end of the world. If someone comes into your kill farm it is pretty annoying but just do your best to outkill them and they'll usually get bored and move on. I'd recommend using the spore contract method instead of exfil farming since a lot of people go for the exfils whereas 9/10 times I never had anyone bother me with spores although that might have changed I haven't played in a couple of weeks

    On the Elden Ring comparison: the way that Elden Ring and soulslikes present challenge is something I had never experienced when I played Black Ops 3 Zombies. Back then, I never even gave a SHOT to the easter eggs because I knew how hard they were. Returning to those maps now, having beaten Elden Ring and several other FromSoft games, I'm actively working towards beating these Easter Eggs. It's interesting how different framing of a challenge completely changes your approach to it.

    The only thing is have to do is get rid of the timer.
    That solves everything.
    That gives you time to farm more contracts to get the better wrenches.
    You get points.
    You get your camos
    You get to enjoy your tiered 3 character.
    We are stuck with the game mode of rushing to get get tier 3 things and we have 3-5 min to enjoy it and that’s not counting if we are going to stay the extra 15 mins of exfil time.
    I enjoy this game mode but until they do something about that timer.

    Some other issues from a middling player (who also loves the game). I bought a bunch of skins for DMZ because having a ton of slots let me rotate through them. With only 3, and only able to switch when you die, makes buying skins feel pointless. Similar with camos. If I infil with a crystal, I don't want to have to go to a PAP just so the PAP camo won't be applied. Since that's what the gun will look like, what's the point of grinding camos? Needs to be a way to never apply PAP camos and switch operators without losing their gear.

    What about once you complete all current hard content on this map you will then be granted access to a complete hardcore map. Same map but hardcore. From t1 to t3. Also increasing rng for the loot that is currently extremely rare when completing a contract. Difficulty where a juggernaut will not kill a mega. Where there’s no soloing red worm. Also, when new content is added you must complete it first before having access to it in hardcore. Maybe you start with tier 2 difficulty in tier 1, tier 3 difficulty in tier 2, elder sigil difficulty in tier 3. Just a thought I had.

    I feel like giving permanent upgrades as substantial as cooldown reductions on wonder weapons to the point that you can just spawn in with them every game is just pushing the "what do i do now?" problem down the line. They dont necessarily have to be so substantial. People just want to grind things these days. If there was such a thing as simple as "spawn in and complete the main quest while only ever using this specific weapon for permanent unlimited ammo for that weapon forever" youd still be giving players that sense of accomplishment without inevitably giving them the carrot at the end of the stick and taking away any incentive to play the game

I just finished unlocking Bioluminescent on the MWII guns and am starting to work toward Borealis. But, once I get those camos, I personally don't have much reason to keep playing the mode. I generally play solo, so doing higher tier stuff, like anything in the Dark Aether, is tough for me (I haven't even beaten the Act 4 mission yet) and I don't really enjoy just mindlessly grinding contracts. Idk, the mode just doesn't have any long term draw for me I guess. It's not something I can just hop on and play, I need to have some type of goal in mind whenever I load into a match.

      @SquashyButton 9 месяцев назад +1

      @@MrMultiPlatform Bro, I see this utter nonsense response all the damn time and it's the stupidest shit ever. I'm loading into the game and shooting zombies, so yes, I am playing the mode. Grinding zombies camos is a reward you can strive toward as you play the mode, so saying you aren't 'playing the mode' when you're unlocking camos is the most asnine shit ever. And who's to say I'm not doing other things while also grinding camos? Because guess what, I am. The entire time I was unlocking Bioluminescent, I was completing story missions and doing contracts, I wasn't just grinding camos.
      And guess what, outside of grinding camos, I wasn't having any fun because to me, MWZ is boring as piss for solo players. The rewards you get for completing contracts, even in Tier 3, are complete and utter garbage. Outside of unlocking schematics, and maybe better loot if you're extremely lucky, there's fucking nothing to do in the mode. I'm sorry, but loading into a match and mindlessly doing contracts for an hour, just to earn a few blue wrenches and maybe a tier 1 PaP crystal is immensely unfun.

    So obvious that these guys were not playing DMZ. DMZ started out just like this. Huge cooldowns. No upgrades etc. as the seasons went on, they added upgrades to just about every aspect of the game and the ability to lower cooldowns and the ability to modify your gun in game.
    All of this will be added as "new content". Why would they give you everything right from the beginning? They wouldn't have anything to say is " we content". So. It's all coming. Including, bundles that you will pay for to cooldown stuff as well. You just know they will do that.

  • @acwood72

    It would be cool if you'd earn more points per zombie if you're solo. I would also love for other ways to progress abilities/strengths for folks like me that aren't great at the game, such as earning crystals (or whatever) when successfully exfilling like in Cold War that would let you buy schematics or something after you have enough crystals. In Cold War, it took me a while to get good enough to earn refined and flawless crystals, but being able to get the fairly easy raw crystals let me get strong enough that it was fun to push myself to try for the others. Right now, the Tier 2 zone is still a big challenge for me because I have almost no schematics (after a month) and I'm not fast enough to get strong before it's almost time to leave. I did mention that I'm not great at this. :)

    The game itself is a lot fun. The constant crashes and disconnects and the way you get penalties for things that aren't your fault are simply a joke. It also makes people start glitching if the only reliable way of getting some gear is the tombstone since you will crash every time you've found something nice you don't get to extract with.

  • @iJobama
    @iJobama 9 месяцев назад

    We need a progression system for character and perk buffs. DMZ brought in the upgrade system around Season 5 with various challenges for different buffs, it would work really well in Zombies. Like Cold War had the upgrades for perks and field upgrades, they could literally do the exact same buffs behind different passive missions that maybe require extracting specific items, completing contracts, using the perks (e.g get 10,000 critical kills with Deadshot Daiquiri for 10% increased critical damage with Deadshot), killing X amount of specials/elites/bosses and such. Amongst other things, upgrading your default rarity, increasing armor plate damage resistance, increased contract payouts, discounts on perks and packapunch.
    Something like that would keep me interested, after getting all the schematics and missions done, Borealis too. I've had to start doing the Zombies Weapon Mastery Grind that requires 300 kills with Golden Enigma equipped, 600 with Zircon Scale, 900 with Serpentinite and 1200 with Borealis. And I only have about 20 weapons to do with Borealis before that's complete. There just needs to be a steady flow of content. Adding 1 mission for Season 1 was such a bad call, I was hoping for a full act, not just Act 4 being 1 story mission. Hopefully they have something good in their hand for the mid season and they just haven't shown the card. Because adding a single Warlord just isn't going to quench my thirst for an entire month

  • @dwool1550
    @dwool1550 9 месяцев назад

    Random idea. Maybe if we complete a certain contract it begins an optional chain of other contracts where it’s like “good job destroying all those spores!… *rumbling* wait…. Something’s happening” and an HVT marker pops up that’s a different color (maybe orange instead of blue to signify higher difficulty and higher point rewards) and whether it’s in tier 1 or 2 it’s a tier 2 difficulty level contract and it is guaranteed to drop more loot. And then maybe after that a tier 3 buffed contract pops up and it’s guaranteed to drop a ray gun or scortcher or legendary aether tool.

    Mwz definitely way exceeded my expectations. I expected it to be pretty bad to be honest, but now I play it pretty much every night. Just keep grinding and filling my stash with legendary tools, flawless crystals, Goldens plates, and dog bones, while helping others get their schematics. Even though there's not much to do in the game once you get all the schematics, aside from camos and chchallenges, it's still pretty fun just to play and grind for stuff.

  • @dat1guy467

    imagine if there was not a time limit but instead a timer to see how long you survived, and the tier 3 zone grew to take over the whole map after lets say 30 mins. Then after taking the whole map the it becomes tier 4 and the games ends when there is one team remaining and they get a random high tier reward at the end plus everything they have in their backpack I feel like that would be more fun.

I hated IW zombies when it came out but now I really enjoy a few of the maps. I would def like to get around to playing all the BO4 maps and then try Cold War to get caught up. But more than anything I miss Primis and that amazing story line and lore that was built over a decade. I’m really sad to see it gone and only hope we get more Dark Aether story with Sam and Eddie.

    @xEscapingRealityxx 9 месяцев назад

    Having finally been able to play the new zombies mode (because of the free weekend) I will say that I ended up hating the one hour timer more than I originally though I would. The timer seems to go by so fast when you get in match that you can’t get lost in the game and explore everything and do as many contracts that you want like you were able to do in outbreak. The way that I view the timer was just them pushing the narrative of the new zombies mode being the “most replayed zombies experience ever” when in reality that’s only the case because they kind of force you to keep loading out and loading back in just to keep playing.

    I Think a "versus" contract where you compete against another squad would be fun, maybe who could kill their respective hvt faster or something, and also just more events on the map, like storm caller is really the only one aside from the worm and you have 45minutes to wait for the worm, so theres no reason there couldnt be more.

    Upon all the great ideas you both had in this podcast, I had a wild thought while you were discussing the tiers of zombies and contracts just being yoinked and you're suffering with nothing. I had this thought of, what if we're able to choose the tier we spawn in match? Because let's face it, nobody chills in T1, if they are they're camo grinding or something, Id love to be able to spawn in a WHOLE T2+ zone so that the WHOLE map is t2 or 3 so we'd all have an extensive amount of contracts etc

  • @aaroningram2953

    I think a good idea would be an alternate exfil that doesnt you change your loadout or anything but lets you continue to another match with what you have.

    2. Private match/lobby. Fixes the crashing, negative interactions with randoms
    3. Better loot, too many times I’ve gotten a green wrench and dead wire (example) from a tier 2 contract. Tier 3 is honestly the same. Killing the megabomb then getting 1 pack a punch I crystal just isn’t enough x

    Most of this already existed in DMZ. He was talking about extracting 10 ray guns and earning something. It was basically a bartering system in dmz. You could exfil $1m and lower the amount of time the helio took to take off. Increase wallet size. Increase stash size. Even things like after extracting 100 revives you got a free one every game. LOL the hardest, like the batering recipe for the RGL you need to beat pelican the hardest boss in the game like ten times.

    Solution. Adding one or two areas in the map that you can stay after the time ends to try and survive as long as possible. And once the time ends and you are in those areas. The time will count up and zombies, elite’s and dogs become stronger every five minutes until you die.

    That would give some replayability for example....a tournament of some kind or having a Who Beats The Worm Boss Race with your friends etc.
    Of course there is also opportunities to do challenge runs like beating a boss with a random Loadout picked by the community etc.
    Regardless of what, I'm seriously looking forward to the next Black Ops game and hopefully round based zombies.

    Also it's funny that Noah mentioned that he revived a Squad from a Disciple recently and they were amazed at how fast he killed it, because that literally happened to me a week ago I was struggling to complete a Disciple Bounty got downed, my Nephew who was in a duo with me went down too and then this squad rolled up revived us and just melted it and I just stood their like "These people are Gods!" Because we'd spent at least 5 minutes trying to kill it with no luck, I ran out of ammo in both my guns and almost had it down then went to the box nearby grabbed a gun and used my crystal to PaP it and was nearly out of ammo again when I went down, and then after that Squad saved us they invited us to join and though I usually don't join randoms I did this time, they saw I needed a Mangler Big Bounty still so with 5 minutes left before the storm moved they went around doing bounties until they completed it for me and I did none of the work and I am still amazed at how good they were because I'm horrible at games

    If they don't want to reduce cooldown, they could do something where every 50 or so kills you get essentially a point, a currency of some form, that you can then spend on any item.

This would *also* allow them for *more microtransactions* which, as a player I wouldn't like, but as a company that seems like a win.
