Figured it was time to start a new thread with the reveal of CoD: Ghosts so here's what we know so far:
Point Streaks build upon each other. (Player in the MP trailer earns a help pilot point streak while using the dragonfire). - yeldarBL
Kill feed has been moved to top right. - yeldarBL
KDR and other in game stats are displayed in top right with no need to pull up a menu. - yeldarBL
Knife seems to have been changed to have about 1 second of vulnerability. They did not mention this, but it can be seen in the trailer that is linked below.
Every map has objects that can be destroyed to get an advantage over the enemy.
More perks split into different sections
30 New weapons
Character customization - Female characters
10-Point Class system. IW's version of it, not exactly the same. "I don't think it's 10 points, since perks can have as many as 5 points IRC." - MeGustaTortugas
20 New killstreaks(less air based/UAV ground-based)
Strike packages are back
"Scorestreaks are out, pointstreaks are back. Unfortunately." - Mojammer
