Personally, I’d like to see Treyarch give another go at a vertical map like Die Rise. If we’re inside the three towers we could be moving up/down them and occasionally hopping from tower to tower.
One more thing I would like to see from this map is another original wonder weapon. I feel like we’ve gotten a lot of awesome returns already. While I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing another OG WW make a return, I’d rather the next returning one be the secondary/side ww of the map and not the main focus.

Hoping to get maybe some zombies in the map.
i want blanchard
A massive clash of forces, none of which we can trust.
Part of S.A.M’s plan requires bringing Sam, atleast a version of her, back. S.A.M’s plan gets interrupted before taking over her body, though.
Panos is already at the tower, working with his “Shadow benefactor”
and then there’s Edward.
Sam, S.A.M, Edward and Panos working for the shadow, all debatably untrustworthy for different reasons.
It’d be awesome if players got to choose, but being realistic with what Treyarch will do, the crew would choose human Sam if given the choice. And because I am 100% unbiased this would be the correct choice.
As for what I think each character could be up to, this is NOT what I think WILL happen, but what I think would be cool.
S.A.M: What Edward says. While Edward may be lying, I think wanting to become the real Sam and then use the Dark Aether to take revenge on Edward and Janus makes enough sense on its own.
Sam: There’s something I thought about with the method S.A.M described of bringing her back. If they’re bringing back a past version of her, is that “past” based on her own experience of time, or the universe she’s in? Because if it’s the former, that includes child Sam, with the power of the MPD. Say they try to bring Sam back, and she comes back from, say, the exact moment Ludwig shoots himself and says kill them all. Then all hell breaks loose.
Other than that, her motivations depend on when she’s pulled from and how. Mid CW story, she wouldn’t be an enemy unless something goes wrong with the process of bringing her back. Edward is _already_ working with the crew, so it may be that Edward tries to convince the crew something isn’t right and she can’t be trusted.
If she’s somehow brought back in her current state from the DA, It calls into question how much more she’s corrupted. I think Sam is too resilient to ever fall into just standard, destroy the world kind of evil corruption, but I have an idea. Maybe Sam doesn’t want to destroy everything, but she might have grown quite attatched to the dark aether, maybe she no longer views it as corruption. Maybe she wants to bring Grey back with her, and Grey is genuinely questioning it.
Personally, while we’re dealing with bringing back past versions of Sam, I think it’s the perfect opportunity to bring back child Sam. I think anything else would be harder to write well.
Edward: He seems to have mostly forgotten his early life with slight memories of the house. I think he is trying to bring his family back and get to the house in Agartha with them. And getting to Agartha has _always_ been his plan with Ultimus and Primis, to carying degrees of justified reasoning. He will take revenge if he gets time along the way, but his main priority is a safe life in Agartha.
Panos: Biggest unknown for me. I know there’s some stuff about the Shadowsmiths or whatever in either VG or MW3, but those are my weakpoints of the story. Maybe it’s Something to do with them, maybe it’s the actual Shadowman trying to make a return, in any case, Panos is acting on behalf of an evil entity.
A zipline system, wonder weapon alt ammo. That’s what o want, be able to run away from a horde by jumping to a nearby building.
If it’s the finale, at least a Panos and SAM fight each
I want a couch to land on
Blanchard is gonna sacrifice himself to save us :O
All I want is all perks to be available around the map
The sliquifier
A wonder weapon that let’s you fly ? Idk that kinda cool using it to move between towers , buried kinda did that.
A full dark aether version of the map like with Die Maschine
Failed ending should be the towers blowing up instead of a zombie eating you.
richtofen as a playable character
Vertical map
Some Die Rise mechanics. The ability to fall to your death (or maybe even fall into the dark eather). Maybe the return of the sliquifier.
I want an update on Panos and who he is talking to. From all the hints so far it seems to be the Shadow Man
Every person in the dark aether to clash for a final battle concluding the story in a epic battle with my pookie Blanchard saving the day
Maybe a special mode where the max player limit increase to 5 or more including characters like Strauss, Rapter 1 or Richtofen
Or maybe a Revelations/Beast From Beyond style of map where it is formed from the all other maps, can be accessed through portals, maybe SAM fractured the thingy mibob where it generates portals for locations
Also, a Die Rise style of map would be cool too
I want the final map to be epic and special
Die rise, but with dark aether realm to escape if you fall down. It will end in flashes as you choke on ashes.
I want the Double Tap logo to be back to normal. Also Blanchard
I wonder if we can fly a plane
PSA : The burning towers in LF are NOT Janus Towers
Deadshot machine.
Death Perception over Deadshot on Shattered Veil is foul.
a new wonder weapon would be nice
I hope we either get a new wonder weapon or if its a old wonder weapon something that hasnt been redone yet like the sliqifire or Paralyzer
Honestly? A bigger map. Put more shit in it to make the replayability better. Bring back most of the wonder weapons for all maps as well. The thunder gun was my favorite. I know we got the jet gun but it’s doesn’t feel the same. Bring back monkeys to discourage camping every round. Maybe upgrades for each wonder weapon like with the Mk2
Here’s a little checklist of what I want to see:
1. Verticality, we need a Die Rise 2.0 in terms of being able to go up and down these massive towers, with ziplines to connect between them
2. They said the nuclear reactors are unstable right? So give us a chernobyl-like power plant where radiation is actively involved in the map’s playable space
3. Give us a brand new lethal equipment than can only be unlocked through a quest specifically in the map. We haven’t had that since the pegasus strike from AE iirc
4. They love re-using boss enemies, so if they don’t come up with something brand new, at least give us the megaton and plaguehounds, they’d fit the theme really well
5. We’ll get into a big bossfight that ties closely to both S.A.M. and Panos, with an end cutscene that completely throws everything on its head
6. The end cutscene could finally show us who the “shadowsmith” character(s) are and how involved they are, bringing us to the finale of the game in a large map set entirely in the dark aether
Ziplining through buildings and a grappling hook special weapon for specific areas!
I want to see towers ….
A cutscene of Blanchard “putting a bullet in Panos’s Crown”
A brand new wonder weapon
I’ve been wanting a special/elite enemy that if you lose sight of it, it “despawns” for a moment and comes back at an unexpected time, like walking around a corner or when turning around. Sort of a slender man type enemy. I was hoping the Doppleghast would be like that
Peck/Strauss operator. IDC if it doesn’t make sense for the story dialogue
I want to see a wonder weapon that shoots bullets. Weird to say but I want see one that has a unique effect while firing but isn’t some energy related weapon
In terms of enemies, maybe for special rounds bring back the Plaguehounds, and maybe return the Megatons
Big focus on verticality, zip-lining between the towers and stuff like that.
Return of the Sliquifier but also a brand new wonder weapon to please both sides.
Keep boss zombies to a minimum like in Shattered Veil, I’d like to see toxic zombies and the megaton come back since it’s supposed to be a nuclear plant gone wrong. I also wouldn’t be opposed to jumping jacks for the Die Rise connection.
New perk gotta be Mule Kick right? I don’t expect to get an actual new one since all other since Melee Macchiato have been classics. I would also love seeing some version of Widow’s Wine.
I’m not really getting into narrative expectations or anything I have literally no idea where the story is going.
The grapple gun back from Cold War but I know it wouldn’t work on BO6 maps.
The C. R. B. R. S. just because it was goated.
Either an old perk that’s updated or a brand new perk altogether.
New enemy types.
Most importantly, WONDER BAR CHANCES FOR MAP SPECIFIC WONDER WEAPONS INCREASED!
Tranzit like map with liberty falls, mansion, and towers
An ORIGINAL ww and a NEW perk
An intro cutscene…
ideally i want new everything, specials, elites, ww and perk. the special round enemy i’m actually fine with a repeat if it means we get hellhounds back. for the elite, if they go with the Die Rise approach, the cold war panzer could return with his jetpack lol. but perk and wonder weapon i 100% want new aditions, every other perk from bo6 will be there alongside the box raygun mk2, i want new stuff
but what i REALLY want, is round based on every god damn multiplayer map. they teased my eo bad with cold war’s onslaught node. just let me train in 6v6 maps!
Vulture aid machine
Fully expecting zip line areas, zombie birds, electric enemies, and a lot of falling to your death.
Maybe a few zombies playing beach volleyball
A brand new wonder weapon (not a remake)
Going to take a slightly different angle here and say that personally, I’d love to see more lore and exploration of the story in general – more Intel, more dialogue. It’d be great to watch the puzzle pieces reaching back to Cold War really start to slot together, along with how everything connects to MWZ. And we’re still waiting on the revelation about who ordered Weaver and Sam’s ill-fated mission that ended in tragedy and why Richtofen was targeted in the first place, so hopefully we get that in this map.
Also what I really want is for Julie Nathanson to return but that’s got a snowball’s chance in hell of happening. But hey, we can dream…
Ziplines. I want to have a cool zipline ride between towers. That’s all I want
