Revitalizing Call of Duty: Unleashing Custom Emblems with Clever Cosmetics
Reviving a beloved feature, a Call of Duty player's ingenious cosmetic idea for custom emblems could revolutionize the franchise's gameplay
Call of Duty fans have been missing the emblem editor feature, which hasn't been included in many recent titles due to concerns about misuse. While emblems are a great way for players to express their personality through their characters, many feel that the limited designs offered by developers can be uninspiring. This wasn't always the case, as the emblem editor in Call of Duty: Black Ops allowed players to create truly unique designs. Treyarch has been the studio most devoted to the feature, including it in three games compared to Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer's one.
Now, Redditor zipitnick has suggested a new way to bring customization back to Call of Duty: customizable patches for Operators. They've even created a proof-of-concept in an impressive TikTok video by cybernation, showing how the patches would look on current Operators. The idea works seamlessly, fitting in with the game's existing skins. In comparison to some of the more outlandish skins in recent titles, customizable patches would be a welcome addition to the game.
The post also suggests the possibility of custom patches appearing on the helmet, chest, or shoulders, which received positive feedback from other users in the thread. It seems that gamers have been waiting for operator customization for quite some time, although some have raised concerns that Activision may use this as an opportunity to increase the value of in-game bundles. Despite this, there is a clear demand for more customization options in Call of Duty games, which is evident from the fact that hackers in Call of Duty: Warzone have created custom Operator skins in the past. While Redditor zipitnick believes that this feature is unlikely to be added to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, there is hope that it may be included in the next game in the franchise, rumored to be Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. As the announcement for the next Call of Duty title is expected soon, players will likely have more information in the near future.
