Diamonds are Forever
Posted by nicedrewishfela on Jan 10, 2013 2:45 PM
Been working the past few weeks off and on on earning Diamond Camo for my Assault Rifles, and I am proud to say that I was able to put the finishing touches on this challenge in my last match before I had to run off to work today. It was a grind, but I felt a real sense of accomplishment for having finished it. I want to thank the devs for putting this nice surprise of a challenge into the game. As much as I loved Black Ops, I hated the COD Points system. There was really no challenge to it, and one could simply just save up the points and buy whatever they pleased (aside from a few locked away until a certain prestige level of course). Where was the sense of achievement there? But even more importantly, I like that this kind of challenge promotes diversity and taking people out of their comfort zone. In the past, you would just earn the camos for the guns you like. There was no incentive to try other weapons, why bother? The Diamond Camo challenge was a really outstanding idea, something I hope is implemented in future titles. Please note, not asking for a discussion of the aesthetics or appearance of the camos themselves, talking mor about what they represent and the challenges that go into earning them Anyone else been taking on these challenges? What has your experience been like? Have you come across any other challenges that you have worked towards that you would recommend trying? Any ideas for challenges in future titles that encourage people to try different things and step outside their comfort zone?
