I hope they let server admins have atleast as much control as we do now over our servers (ie: Control over perks, streaks, and other things). Not allowing custom maps on ranked servers really hurt map making.

CoD4 was a great game, but it was so shitty for server admins because you were so limited over your control over your server if you wanted to stay ranked.

Yo,

Just a thought really. When the mod tools are released i wonder if they will allow a mixture of stock and custom maps to run on an unmodded cod5 server? I could never understand why this wasn't allowed in cod 4. Any thoughts ? By the way, i'm really enjoying the beta and can't wait for the full game:D

Nick.

probably similar as in Cod4 iv noticed that when you start up the game it downloads some kind of date. what iv found out is that the key you got from treyarch and the name you registered that key with is what it gets from the online services

One thing it has going for it is it appears that you will be able to disable perks and killstreaks and still remain ranked.

Allowing you to disable certain perks and kill streaks is helpful, no longer do server admins need to run a mod for such things, thus decreasing popularity.

Also, I see why they may not want to make custom maps ranked, what if somebody made a map that was merely for getting Level's fast?

Does anyone really care that much? Other people's levels don't affect me one bit. After 1 month EVERYONE is going to be max level, why make everyone suffer for years so that everyone is equal for a month?

I'm a huge supporter of giving server admins as many otions as possible. CoD4, despite being a great game, had to be one of the worst games for server admins. We had almost all our choices made for us by making severs 'ranked'.

What about Prestige?

Anyways, I do hope that server's can run custom maps and stay ranked, it would certainly open up options for me and my servers. Also, the maps that will be in the full game look rather cool, although there seems to be a lack of vehicle maps, with only three out of 13 supporting them.

I look forward to mapping for World At War. There are plenty of custom map/mod servers out there for Call of Duty 4 that do very well. Although it would be nice for custom maps to be "rankable" like stock maps.
