Who misses the money system of BO?

I personally liked how I could buy what attachments and perks I wanted. Going through the "gun grind" to unlock an attachment I don't even want sucks IMO, as well as waiting until level 30 to unlock steady aim. I understand after a prestige, I can use a token to unlock steady aim, but I still preferred the money system. Overall, I still enjoy the game. Just wondering what everyone else's thoughts were.

That is one improvement Black Ops had over MW2 was the COD cash system. I prefer it over the weapon grind system currently in place. I also miss having a personalized playercard. I know FBD got tired of seeing dicks, and horses humping gorillas but I always got a laugh out of them and liked how intricate some of those playercards could be.

Yup, I liked to buy what I want but hate to have to wait sooooooo long to unlock extended mags on an smg.

^^I agree. I spent a lot of time coming up with a cool player card, and hated giving it up. I understand these games are made by different companies, but it would be great if they could get together and take the best of both games.

Exactly. It's like, "you've unlocked the noob tube", who gives a f***? I want those extended mags all the way at the bottom of the list...

Or what about unlocking all those god awful sights, I mean really are they actually better than the red dot? I just need a red dot, silencer and extended mags, maybe rapid fire.

I agree. It would just be nice, if it was my choice. Let me choose what I want, and don't want.

Speaking of stuff you want to unlock, anyone unlock the damage for any shotguns other than the striker?

I'm curious if it'll make the spas a OHK, but I don't want to spend the time to unlock it if it doesn't.

That and without the playercard, my sig below just looks silly.

I hated it at first on Blops but after awhile, your right, I liked being able to choose what attachment I wanted next. I liked how the gold camo was set to level 14 and 50k. Gold guns in MW3 don't carry much meaning.

never got the golden guns by earning them anyways ...I'd just steal one from the dead body and run it till the ammo runs out, then find another...LMAO!!! I SURE MISS BUYING WANT I WANTED OVER GETTING NOTHING I LIKED AFTER LEVEL 7 on the gun I use

I never had a problem with the anime porn per se, Hell, some of it WAS funny, but it's tough when my son is in the room and sees some chick spread eagle getting fisted and says, 'Dad, what's that?'

And way too much racist crap.

I did like the COD cash MUCH better than the gun grind. I would always run extended mags, and now it takes forever to unlock them.

The levels don't bother me.... I always thought Blops was to simple. Get a gun and slap anything you want on it, it was to easy..I liked having my preferred loadout instantly but still felt it was to easy

I don't think the tube should be easier to unlock than ext mags tho......
And the only attachment that changes my game is the suppressor which is unlocked early.

What would have been interesting is if they made buying the attachments more market driven. The more popular the attachment, the more it would cost. Or something like that.

This is an interesting idea. The going market rate for Extended mags is... There was a recent prestige boom in Thailand so everyone is getting suppressors and the market cant handle the demand. Suppressors are now 50k COD points...

LMAO. That's hilarious.

Or maybe a true marketplace where you can buy and sell weapons and attachments.

"The current official price of Suppressors is 50k COD points, but I'll sell you mine for 40k."

I miss the money system too.

I also really miss the ability to look at the playercard of someone in the lobby. I don't know why, but I like knowing that the guy who just went 40-5 against my random team usually has a 0.98 KDR.

Check out this previously posted comment from LOCKEdnLOADed22:

"MW3 won by a lot. I love that now you get a token to do what you want when you prestige. Since I can unlock my favorite weapon(s) or perk(s), I'll be prestiging all the way through. There was no way I was going to prestige in BlOps. This negated the currency system in BlOps for me. What's the point in having all that money if I end up losing it when I prestige? It'd be better if we could stay at the highest rank, save up some cash, then unlock what we want when we prestige."

This comment makes quite a bit of sense to me. They aren't letting us simply unlock all weapons or everything in the game (which keeps the challenge going), but at least they allow us to play with one of our favorite weapons all the way. I would like it better if we could have both: the buying power of BO and the token unlock system for one weapon of MW3.

By the way, go vote (see below) in if you get a chance.
