Plutonium

Yeah, maybe that would be too much to handle. I was hyped for SM2 but Activision had other plans. If they were planning on doing that for SM2 why couldn't they do it for bo1/2, but maybe Activision would come knocking again I don't know. But I see huge potential here.

With this in mind, what if you had a community who were willing to do multiple servers like this, and already had the resources? Would Plutonium be willing to attempt this task?

And Resxt, you wouldn't have to choose one or the other for life, you could join either a "ranked" or "unranked" server depending on the circumstance at the time, whether you feel like grinding or not. And 5 minutes later you could join unranked if you felt like it. I personally would like to grind to compete with my friends, and if you had a friend who didn't like that you could hop on unranked for a while... I think this would be a win-win situation. As long as the xp is the same between all the ranked servers, you could play on any of the ranked servers and have the weapons you grinded for.

I agree Vexbane, I didn't so much mean the client, more so the server hosts could decide the type of server "ranked" or "unranked". "Ranked" would keep track of level / guns / xp / etc. Having a separate tab on the server browser perhaps for each type. And if the "ranked" servers could "read" your steam level / guns / xp / etc. that would be even better. Although I do not understand the challenges that would provide, I still think that this would be a good step for plutonium. This would also give meaning to your level ingame again when playing on "ranked" servers.

Yeah, it really is a shame. I would love to see that be an option for server hosts, If people don't like the grind-set they could play on servers that don't have that system. Either way giving hosts other options is good I would think.

Is/could it be possible to have a "Master Server" that would handle XP gain in "ranked" servers...

So I have been thinking about this for a while, as you may know, it is rumored that GameServers.com is soon shutting down their ranked bo1 servers. This would kill the fun in the game for many players like myself.

And now to my point: Some way they (Treyarch/Activision) keep track of players' XP. With the current version of Plutonium, you can choose to unlock all or get camos/whatever. Is there a way to make two separate versions of the client (or similar) to allow players to choose servers that require you to grind for everything with no possibility of "unlock all"? I would love to see this be an option for people so they can grind out 100% legit and show off to the others who play on those "ranked" servers.

Having this implemented for Bo2 as well, would be the dream. I know you can choose not to unlock all, but just having that makes all the grinding and achievements worthless if all you have to do is press a button.

Personally, this would also give me more incentive to play the Pluto version of Bo1 + Bo2.
I would love to hear feedback and what the plutonium community has to say about it.

If I am wrong about anything please correct me, and I would love to hear as much detail as possible if you decide one way or another, Thanks.
