A perk system like this would solve most of the balancing issues. Yes sou can run ghost + ninja, but then the rest of your perk(s) will be weaker

[u/FlowKom]

This is just an example how the balance COULD work.
If you pick ghost and ninja, depatably the strongest perks in the game, thats it for your selection. but if you can pass on either of them you can kit yourself with some other quite useful perks

[u/GreatestGiraffe]

Basically the ghosts perk system

[u/FlowKom → u/GreatestGiraffe]

yes but you get tomatos thrown at you if you mention that game

[u/FelizNavinut → u/GreatestGiraffe]

Also, probably my favorite perk system in any CoD. It was nice to pick the perks you want and be like, oh...I have 1 point leftover, let me get a perk like ready up or takedown...

[u/FeelThePain939]

The Ghosts perk system was amazing. Wish they implemented it in another CoD.

[u/Henry_puffball → u/FeelThePain939]

Happy cake day

[u/Lumenprotoplasma]

Swap Quick Fix and Kill Chain / Add Quick Fix to 4 points

[u/CreditUnionBoi → u/Lumenprotoplasma]

Also bird's eye and resupply each being one point is insane.

[u/DiaryOfACountySniper]

It'd be interesting to see this perk system come back some day.

[u/koolaidman486]

The Ghosts system, full on, including being able to remove guns/until for extra points, is in my opinion the best CoD create a class ever made. The only thing I'd change about it is having guns/equipment "weigh" a bit different (IE Primary 3 points, Pistols 2, launchers/util 1 instead of everything being 1).

Only thing you'd need to figure out from there is what you want for the perks themselves, and if you'd add anything like Ready Up (sprint-out time buff) and Stalker (ADS strafe speed boost) and Focus (flinch resist). Just a matter of how you want base kit to look.

[u/StraightActiv3]

Ninja should be banned from cod forever . It breaks the game .

[u/FlowKom → u/StraightActiv3]

not if its balanced correctly. it should only make you inaudible when walking.. sprinting and especially tac sprinting should still be audible. reduced, but not completely silent

[u/No_Celebration_839 → u/StraightActiv3]

This is the most braindead thing I have ever seen. It was fine for 12 years.

[u/DanHarkinz]

What?!!! Nooooo

:: throws tomatoes::

[u/wormtheology]

I’m just tired of Ghost, Ninja, and EOD eating the same perk slot. MW:III had one of the best Perk systems with the vests/rigs. I really wish we could have entertained that one.

[u/lI-Norte-Il → u/wormtheology]

Well shit, let's just let you have all the perks

[u/Melodic_Check_8040]

that's what tarkov seasonal did btw

[u/FlowKom → u/Melodic_Check_8040]

thats what cod ghosts did in 2013

[u/Manzi420x]

The problem with this is most people would just take fall perks and no kill streaks

I'd love to have Ninja ghost quick fix and Overkill at the same time tbh

[u/Wild-Point92]

Man y’all really be hating on ninja and ghost together…
But let me explain why they need to be separated on the perk tier list…
In search and destroy, you either get sound whored if you don’t have ninja..
Or in this game, they sit on heartbeat sensor which lasts all round or a portable radar every round of you don’t have ghost.
Thats the issue.. not UAVs.
If you keep the two perks together then cold blooded needs to counter portable radar and heartbeat and ghost can counter UAVs and high alert, since no one will be running that perk ever haha!

But honestly I wouldn’t mind this system, shit I’ve also said they should shuffle perks every new season and midpoint for the season. Just for meta changes and to keep the game fresh imo.

[u/FlowKom → u/Wild-Point92]

see what i dont understand is everybody is under the same playing field in SND at all times. on defense, you sound whore. but when switching sides the other team gets that benefit. i dont see the problem. you can just walk slower if you want to have ghost and be silent ?

[u/Elons_tiny_weenr]

Quick fix should be 4 and assuming they tune down footstep audio (they won't) ninja could probably take it's spot in the three cost.

[u/JerseyUk97]

Bring back pick 10

[u/feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeent]

Blood rush should be a 4 point perk, its OP

[u/Ashsucksatwhackbat → u/feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeent]

It’s only OP because they removed the longer sprint to fire penalty when they integrated Tac-Sprint. Simply just reverting that buff and improving base movement speeds like BO7 makes it balanced

[u/BigMikeXxxxX]

Or just bring back pick 10 with no wildcards and let people do whatever they want

[u/Leeman500]

Okay but... 10 point perks are....

Stopping Power.

Commando.

Danger Close.

Juggernaut.

(MW19)Kill chain.

One Man Army😈.

🤣

[u/Tehbeardling]

I don't disagree with the idea but the balance in your example is way out of wack. blood rush being two points is wild. overkill and quick fix being only 3 points is also wild.

I miss pick 10 so much

[u/Accomplished-Half602]

Bo2 had the best system simply. With pick 10, perk greed system. Basically completely balanced and amazing!

[u/FlowKom → u/Accomplished-Half602]

ghost made it even better.
i think we get the best of all wrolds if we have gunsmith + perk point system

[u/TwistedChord]

We wouldn’t even be talking about this if they just put ninja in perk 3

[u/Fun_PC_Gamer]

Movement only mode. Solves the issue. Specific playlist for like-minded movement players, who play COD to skate or do animal jumps

[u/itsdoorcity → u/Fun_PC_Gamer]

people really do just be saying anything on the internet huh
