    Online Vs. Single Player: Questions of Why

    As I have played the single player and online play many times now and got to Level 55 and have all the weapons and all the little things that go on them, I see where things start to not make sence.

    Why can't we get the M21 Suppressed with some glass on it like in the mission: all guilied up?

    Why can't we get more then 1 attainment at a time on our weapons, unlike in the Single player game?

    Why give us the Night vision goggles in every map when only one map (Wetwork) we can even use them on?

    Why only make the rank highest at 55 when you most likely knew that most good or hardcore players would rear to that rank in only a matter of days?

    Why don't we have the ciclre dot sights like in the single player?

    Why can't we change up what is on our Weapons while in the middle of a game, rather then at the end of each round?

    Why can't we custom our players? (like add or taking things off the side we are playing on)

    These are just a few that have come to mind, if you guys want to add any, be my guest. I think some, if not most would agree that the questions I have asked here are reasonable and wouldn't make the game any harder or easyer for people, but would give them more to do or to have.

    Most of these can be answered with the statement:

    "Bots don't care if they lose every round. They don't care if you've got the uber-setup and they've got an AK-47 with iron sites and a flask of vodka."

    As for the 55 max level, well, they had to end it somewhere. They knew people would achieve the rank in a couple weeks, but leveling up isn't the point of the game. This isn't WoW. Think of the leveling up process as your training. Congratulations on completing your training, now you may play the game with your choice of weapons and perks.

      maybe if u unlock an attachment during a round, u need to finish that round before u can attach it.

      its also so u just cant o changing ur weapon depending on wholes shooting at you, thats why u get 5 create a class slots, just mix and match,

      i have
      CQC
      hardcore kit
      Long Range
      Heavy assault
      AK FEAR

        Why can't we get the M21 Suppressed with some glass on it like in the mission: all guilied up? - grass is unnecesarry in mp...suilencer would be uberpwn

        Why can't we get more then 1 attainment at a time on our weapons, unlike in the Single player game?- it would be uberpwn again...

        Why give us the Night vision goggles in every map when only one map (Wetwork) we can even use them on? i dont think if people use it on wetwork anyway...they should add few night maps in upcoming patches

        Why only make the rank highest at 55 when you most likely knew that most good or hardcore players would rear to that rank in only a matter of days? i earned it in few days on non-hardcore servers...

        Why don't we have the ciclre dot sights like in the single player? -thats bad yeah, they look cool as hell

        Why can't we change up what is on our Weapons while in the middle of a game, rather then at the end of each round?- then it would last to much...

        Why can't we custom our players? (like add or taking things off the side we are playing on) -that would be cool, but again unnecesarry

        These are just a few that have come to mind, if you guys want to add any, be my guest. I think some, if not most would agree that the questions I have asked here are reasonable and wouldn't make the game any harder or easyer for people, but would give them more to do or to have.
        that are my answers...

          Doesn't affect gameplay.

            Balance, and not to make the game too boring by giving too much s*it to ppl which will result in everyone using the same stuff and the game becoming stellar.

              If you want endless levels, play a role play game.

              More than one weapon attachment would lead to everyone using silencers - boring.

              Customizing the players would be cool, but is not that important imo.

              Changing setups during a match: When you have a decent set of custom classes you won't run into any problems.

                Exactly.
                Silencer + ACOG/Reflex + grenade launcher = Everyone would use this combination.

                            I agree with T_E, Balance. If everything were about realism, we'd have a game that wouldn't be fun for the new players.

                            I do, however, wish that there were higher ranks. I wouldn't even mind using Prestige mode. We should also have more maps made for Night vision. Being able to customize our player for FFA is a good idea for personality, even though you aren't able to see yourself most of the time.

                              Thats a pretty good way of looking at it :)
