    I wanted to get the communities opinion on how this should work. I'm aiming to develop War 2.0 as close to CoD as possible. Because of this, I'm doing away with the unlimited level system and replacing it with a prestige system. I know we have some CoD players out there, and I want your opinion on how this should work.

    Here's what I need to know:
    • How many levels should be in one prestige?
    • How many times can you prestige?
    • What do you get when you prestige? (Another class slot? You already get 5)
    • What do you lose when you prestige? (Guns? Credits? Stat wipe?)
    Remember I'm basing War 2.0 100% off CoD, so don't get too crazy. Post how you feel it should work below.

    Disclaimer: This is for War 2.0, not the current war.

    Bruh! This would be awesome! Make the level maybe at 50? Others not sure about yet.

    I never played CoD so I can't really give any input on the details, but I like this idea for a simple reason: Right now you get to level 50, have all guns and then your only goal is getting as many kills and levels as possible which - in my opinion - leads to try-harding.
    This would force you to run through the process of unlocking one gun after another and actually using weak guns again and again, meaning the game would be more focussed on skill rather than equipment.

    Maybe every prestige you unlock one gun of each type and decrease the prestige level from 50 to 30.

    Yes! This idea is exactly what we need. When you unlock all the guns it becomes extremely boring to just get kills over and over. Actually having to get the guns all over again would bring the community closer together and make it more then just "use this gun over and over all the time".

    What you should get: A 5 level prestige decrease for next prestige (ex: lvl 50 --> lvl 45) or some credits to use when u prestige.

    What you should lose: Complete wipe of everything besides maybe stats.

    P.S.
    When you prestige you get the 5 level decrease so the next time you prestige you do it 5 lvls lower then last time. When you reach a certain limit (lvl 30 or so), you just get credits so you get a head start when you prestige.

    This also is a good idea. Maybe earn a gun every level and then have those guns for a few levels till like maybe 5-10 levels then they reset. And then the top prestige gives you a mystery gun xD.

    There is a way to counter the "weak guns" and "op guns" method. By making all the guns have an quite equal amount of stats all together. So that each gun is nearly the same, however other stats can be slightly off where they can either boost or lose some stats to it to differ from most weapons. Although if add in one super weapon that does more than other weapons can, it'll cause the un-balance to this.
    We would want guns to be balance and counter other types of guns to any person can win with any gun.
    This'll cause a lot of farming to get that many levels however to get guns... Farming can lead to try-harding with the best weapons buuuuut, since lower tier wouldn't exactly have insane power play, they would be forced to use the lower guns like you said. Which is nice.
    Just make sure that there's no super weapons. And don't let the AA12 have the same faith as before...

    50 is a good level for the Prestige System.

    1.) this all depends on the XP system. It's much easier to get level 45-55 on CoD than it is for war. If you configure the level systems and XP systems similar to CoD's on war 2.0, then I'd keep it at levels 45-55. However, if you remain the level systems from war, then it should be at like level 20.

    2.) I would say about 15-20 prestiges. This is considering war is also generally easier and faster to get kills than CoD it. This would also be relative to my first point/answer.

    3.) - Keep a small tag/emblem to let other know you are prestiged that many times
    - Tokens for bonus stuffies and vanity

    4.) - Everything except for stats. However, stats may show as an all-time for one section and a "during-prestige" section.

    Hope this helped

    I feel like level 50/60 should be a good amount of levels. When you get over level 80, it is very hard to level up again. Being in a prestige would be awesome!
    But the only problem I see in adding prestiges, is that people like @_19 and @Lekosa1 will need to count what level they are and what Prestige they are in.
    Overall, a +1 pudding from me!

    • How many levels should be in one prestige? 50
    • How many times can you prestige? 10 or 11
    • What do you get when you prestige? (Another class slot? You already get 5) You get a new emblem in Call of Duty when you prestige so you should have 10 different colors for the names of the different prestiges. You could use the system in martial arts: White, yellow orange (this goes on in a different order depending what martial art you are taking.)
    • What do you lose when you prestige? (Guns? Credits? Stat wipe?) No guns, I think it would be cool if everytime you prestige you get a donator perk. This way people who don't have the money to donate can get scavenger etc.

    55 levels in a prestige.
    10-prestiges
    when you prestige you should get better weapons, new class slots.
    when you prestige i think you should only lose stats, and maybe get something that special.

    make sure to have headshots. and maybe you can have cool tags when your prestige. and it would be cool if u could add attachments.

    and a question, can i help out with this or will there be a beta relase for only some people??

    The main objective (in my opinion) of prestige for on CoD is to get to prestige master and unlock all equipment, otherwise, why would I want to prestige in CoD?

    The way this prestige system is being suggested has many parts that can change from other parts (eg: gun balancing, will we have skins, will we have fun levels etc).

    My first question is, why would players want to prestige? In CoD the purpose is mainly to get more slots for items, otherwise, why would you prestige? You would get every gun, and eventually everything else without prestiging. We need a point. Now if you say it will make you look more skilled, this is basically going to the infinite level system.

    The token system will clarify what I want to do here, so look into that.

    How many levels should be in a prestige? Just like above, it depends on stuff, if I had more info I could easily give an answer. In CoD, each level you get a unlock token for a item of your choice, so if prestiging will give you a perm unlock token, we need to have less levels than items, whatever that number will be.

    Again, we want to be able to unlock everything eventually so that's where prestige master comes in. Honestly making the number 10 prestige a then prestige master, just like black ops 2.

    Just a quick formula after going through this for how many levels per prestige we should have:

    I - P = 5
    I = items (guns, equipment, perks etc)
    P = prestige levels

    Having 11 prestige a is my opinion, and when you get master, you get all items (5 more than prestige 10). This how to works in black ops 2, this is how I like it.

    What do you get for prestiging? Again I like keeping it like CoD here, more weapons and stuff, less limitations. Also other stuff would be cool.

    What do you lose? Well to start, guns & equipment. Now going with my plan, using unlock tokens instead of credits, that would make it complicated here but work. You keep your prestige tokens (if used you keep that item), for the rest of the tokens, you gotta earn them back.

    Keeping Wars traditional credit system, yes a credit wipe should be done.

    Keep other hard worked for stats too.

    Any questions ask me, I know my black ops 2 stuff and have most CoD games.

    Prestige tokens

    From MW3, you prestige -> you get a prestige token

    Tokens can be used for ->
    • Unlocking extra class
    • Keeping weapon from last prestige (eg: you unlock mp7 at lvl 40, when you prestige you lose it, you use prestige token to keep that weapon when you prestige)
    • Double xp for [x] amounts of time
    • other stuff

    Keep the stats.
    Prestige could be around lvl 50-60; restartable if wanted. (Big benefits for restarting e.g. 5% more xp per kill. Restarting again 10% xp per kill etc).

    Add amount of tokens to /profile.

    Probably gonna right more on the topic but this is for now ^.

    It should take round about a month for someone who actually has a life to prestige once, so I'd say round about level 35-40.

    You should be able to get prestige an ∞ amount of times, but obviously there'd be a limit in the amount of prestige awards there are. About 10 prestige levels should be good enough for release but I think that as people get more prestige levels, more prestige awards should be added to guarantee an incentive for regulars to play.

    You should get prestige-exclusive guns that are available from prestige only. No, you can't donate to get them, you can't vote to get them, you can't buy them with credits, you can only get them from prestige.

    You should lose your levels, and maybe guns and credits. There shouldn't be a stat wipe.

    War isn't being replaced by the new War. The current war would become a 'legacy' server and would no longer be a 'main' Brawl server.

    In real COD "when you prestige it means to basically get rid of everything you have worked for in order to get the ability to level up again. The only things you keep when you prestige is your emblem pictures, layers, and playercard backgrounds. Everything else including money is lost. "

    To get prestige you have to reach level 50. When you do you can go to your player card and prestige taking you back to level one first prestige. There are 15 prestiges you can reach.

    "Ater completing level 55 (max level) at Prestige 10 in Black Ops II, you will unlock a new Prestige level called Prestige Master. Once you are Prestige Master, you will no longer be able to use Prestige Awards because you can only have one Prestige Token available for use at any given time. If you have a Prestige Token that is not spent when reaching the next Prestige level, an additional Prestige Token will not be awarded, and any unused Prestige Tokens are removed."
