Basically if you could have 1 power up that you start with that you can use at any time in a game. But you can only use it once what power up would you want to have?
Here the list of power ups (from zombies) that you can have
Insta kill
Double points
Max ammo
Nuke (kills all zombies on map you also get 400 points)
Carpenter (fixes all barricades)
Fire sale (random box shows up on every random box spot and the box costs only 10 points) lasts 20 seconds
Death machine (use of the death machine chain gun)
I would want the fire sale so I can quickly and easily get some good weapons early on. Thought the death machine is pretty fun to use...
