Okay Magma-Man, i will rewrite my post for your pleasure alone.

There are too many perks that have to remain constant in the series for there to only be two returning. Scavenger, Sleight of Hand, Marathon, Dead Silence, SitRep, Hardline and some sort of stealth perk, everything else is interchangeable.

Knowing the CoD series though, they probably will bring back all of those perks, changing names however. For example Ninja (instead of Dead Silence), Bandolier (instead of Scavenger), Marathon (instead of Extreme Conditioning), Ghost (instead of Assassin), Hacker (instead of sitrep). Now I think you'll find that only Sleight of Hand and Hardline are returning, the rest are completely NEW PERKS!!!1!!

Does that make it easier, is my view better suited to you now?
