The Act Man I only played ghosts once not because I didn’t like I didn’t own the game, but heard that snoop dogg is a announcer is which is pretty cool.
Waited soooo long for this video! Great job act man! :))
I doesnt have Doom Guy
It was basically a 50$ dlc
Make a video on Team Fortress 2!!!!!!
I feel like I’m one of the only people who didn’t think ghosts was that trash
we out here
You’re not alone. I need to know how the story ends.
Yeah I liked ghosts
I liked it
The game was fine. The writing, characters, and background was not.
Call of Duty ghosts will always have a spot in my heart because me and my dad would always play it together and it was always fun.
yo_itstommy yeah I agree with u. I don’t get the hate unless you're hating the online mode
yea me and my dad played it all the time too it was so fun and i loved the campaign and the online wasnt bad over all i loved that game one of my most favorite
I spent four years straight playing the game with my friend and we would play every game together it was such a good game imo
holy fuck- same but with my step dad... during the summer of 2014, on the ps3 we had at the time, we used to be up all night playing the game together (along with my uncle too at times). Yeah, it sucked in some ways (especially multiplayer lol), but the memories I have with it make it hold a special place in my heart as well. And to be honest, definitely in my top 5 for the best video games I played ever.
Same
I think that "Ghosts" was the last CoD where you actually got a lot a real full campaign experience. A lot of gameplay and not just cutscenes like these days. The story is a bit lame but the game is actually pretty good, and the graphics are not bad at all. MW3 was also somewhat mediocre but such a packed singleplayer-mode is awesome. Sadly these days the CoD games are MP and the campaign itself is the "movie" so that we get a backstory to why we're playing.
@Romanian Lobster Gaming 🇷🇴 gimme both MWs over this trash any day
@Romanian Lobster Gaming 🇷🇴 they are definitely not perfect but far from a disaster ghost was
Cold war was amazing tho
Mw19 and especially mw2 had stellar campaigns. Mw2 campaign to many is the best part about it
@@Kajetanpsikuta stop lying to yourself
Honestly, compared to some of the newer cods (Vanguard, WW2), this doesn't seem bad, honestly.
I thought you said mw2 💀
Its a bad campaign cause they tried going on a franchise of ghost 1, 2, 3 if the didn't try playing those cards it would have been 7/10
That’s not really saying much buddy
Ww2 owns this garbage cod especially campaign and zombies
eh, at least the campaign of ww2 is good
Act man you clearly didn’t give the game a chance, did you see the fish A.I.?
Oh I saw. Thats why this game is a masterpiece
Anytime advertisement for a first person war game includes “fish that move out of the way” means u should run away and hold onto ur money
@@TheActMan Wish you do why COD 2 is AWESOME
“That’s a lotta fish.”
Yeah act man what's wrong with you? The fish and dog models are a masterpiece jesus!
Worst part of Call of Duty Ghosts:
It's not an origin story for Ghost.
Yea
Yup that's the only reason I dislike CoD Ghost.
I will never dislike it in the first place if it had a different name.
Dereenaldo Ambun they should call it
Call Of Duty: DOG MODEL
they have a comic book series that shows ghosts backstory
That would be better
You can always tell when a game is fucked over by corporate meddling. Because the music, the art, the landscapes, everything is beautiful, but the story is middling at best and appalling at worst. The artists who work on these games put their heart and passion into them, laboring for many hundreds or thousands of hours to make everything pristine and stunning, only for their corporate overlords to take their art and put over a rotting corpse of a story, which must feel like a sledgehammer to the chest.
Well a) it's not the businesspeople who write the story it's the writer and b) the artists probably don't play the game themselves, they just submit work and collect a fat paycheck. As long as they get paid, I doubt they're unsatisfied. Most are probably even unaware what the story is and don't care.
The game is fucked over by misreading the criticisms toward its predecessors and I can't blame the company due to the sheer volume of unintelligent hate directed towards them/the game. Of course they were going to change things up on reaction, and of course it wasn't going to be what everyone wants - nobody was very forthcoming about what they wanted, but were towards anything they could latch onto for meme-y rage content.
The Clockwork mission could be a stealth mission from start to finish, the idea of disguised as an enemy to sneak into their base is fun and thrilling, but nope their disguises has been found out by the enemies in the end turning it into open fire chaotic hot mess
I mean, it worked for most of the mission, also, we had "The Hunted" which was a FULL STEALTH mission, you even get achievement for not getting spotted ONCE
@@pansebacheckmark yeah, but the plot sets up the Ghosts as a team of elite, stealthy soldiers, although most missions throw this premise under the bus for the sake of turning everything into a big dumb shooting gallery.
With such an intrinsic detail to the protagonist's identities, stealth should be the norm and not the opposite.
@@lucas7061 who would play cod if every mission would be a stealth one? It'd be even more hated than it was already
I would say that the federation stopping you to reveal your masks would’ve been the most logical action for them to do because why would you just let some of your workers leave the facility that just got secretly raided with some important battle info even though they looked like your soldiers meaning there are imposters among them. (no pun intended)
Camping with a thermal scope was so common in ghosts that even the bots would do it in an offline match
Yes.If you didnt do it as well,you would die.It was a kill or be killed situation
Ikr? 😂
It was pretty fucking annoying. But I didn't mind it.
"camping": slang term created by idiots and sore losers who run full speed into ambushes (legitimate strategy literally everywhere else that isn't a 12 year old COD lobby)
@@ethanwilliams4559 it depends. some people camp even when they should be defending or attacking an objective. Happens a lot in games, battlefield is far worse than CoD for camping for literally no reason. People on that game will just sit and wait until they get a vehicle unwilling to do anything else. In cod if you're camping near an objective that's fine, but if you're camping halfway across the map in a corner it's annoying, and they can't even argue it's a good strategy they're not even defending the objective.
@@rockbandandghmaster there are a few instances sure where it's no good like that or... ugh... spawn camping, but what you mentioned is normal for all games but what I mentioned is the fact that COD players abuse the term for anyone and everyone who does something other than the Leroy Jenkins play style that COD panders to, and gets people kicked for it.
Everyone shitted on this game so hard we got 3 fucking futuristic ones in a row
literally!! smh and i thought ghosts was 8/10. people expect every game to be modern warfare 2 or bo2. infinite warfare and all that future crap got old so fast
@@michaelwright6795 now we are getting more WW games over and over and im starting to return to scifi ones.
I loved this game lol way better then infinite or advanced warefare
idk about you but I thought that Black Ops 3 was great.
@@CharlesVDoktaur depends on what your talking about in bo3 when you talk to the cod community. most think its the best zombies yet. but the campaign falls flat or mp is meh i personally like bo3 campaign do be a clusterfuck though.
The only problem I had with the campaign was the ending of course, Riley getting knocked aside by that soldier that stabbed you, with no effort at all. And Rorke being invincible. But besides that I loved the campaign.
There’s also the magic handgun round that penetrates two people and two rifle rated plates with enough power to break a window.
I will never understand why people hated this game, I loved it and it is one of my personal favorites.
-terrible story
- bad maps
- terrible ui
- unusable streaks
- campy ass player base that would put mw2019 to shame
And that's just the start of it
@@mynamejeffgaming sounds like you just suck at the game
@@mynamejeffgaming mw2 2022 has a mid story and a bad ui system and I bet your one of the bandwagons who overhyped it and praise it
@@doppelganger4629 you sound mad that no ones likes this shiity game lol, good reason for all of it
@@unstopable180 🐑
Honestly I think BO4 and Advanced Warfare are far worse than Ghosts.
Agreed
Bo3 too
Agreed
Bo4 was good, the microtransactions killed it tho
bo4 has a killer zombies mode, but everything else are kinda meh
The story doesn’t make sense
Laughs in bo3
Okay.
Bo3 makes sense
BS no the fuck it doesn’t 😂
@@BS-rm1hv you don't have to prove you're smart bro.
@@TheDaidai05 yes it does. It's funny because it actually makes more sense than mw2 and mw3. You see, in mw2 you see Russian army invade the USA through the Atlantic Ocean with millions of soldiers. That's just stupid. Furthermore, Russia invades the USA despite seeing Makarov on the camera. In mw3, Russia invades without any reason all of Europe in less than one day. Compared to that, Ghost is well written.
I loved ghosts for 2 reasons and two reasons only
The story, ignoring the stupid logic
And the absolutely beautiful campaign level design
this game has a place deep in my soul. my dad introduced me to it when i was 7, taught me and my brother, and we played vs bots for 4 years. me and my bro got onto multiplayer and i quickly figured out my playstyle was camping (thank you father, for now i have no movement) and i LOVED sitting in some obscure part of prison break with the ghillie suit (thank you father, for grinding online for 4 years). me and my bro would split screen, where he would go run and i would watch out for him, kill some nerds, direct him where i couldnt shoot, and sometimes he would just stand near me and camp, so they would go for him and let me get kills more easily. he died, i avenged, i died, he avenged. easily had multiple spots to play in in case i died. never stopped being fun getting 25/0 just for sitting in a bush helping out my little brother. one time i got 42 and 3. still have the picture on my dad's phone. love ghosts to death.
nice wall of text 👍
Ghosts happens after Modern Warfare, so my head cannon is that Simon "Ghost" Riley is reincarnated as a dog. Which explains why Riley is such a good dog
I dont know y this was funny
Beautiful story
What
He’s a good dog but he’s trapped in a shitty game
Emotional reality
Ghost: “I am the worst”
Vanguard: “am I a joke to you?”
Vanguard may not be the worst, but really feels like the most mediocre or the least necessary one.
@@SergioMach7 have you seen the cod tubers talking about it?? It sucks!!
@Anglo-Afghan Royalist SHG is really getting a reputation as the worst CoD dev, Infinity ward dropped the ball with Ghosts and Treyarch with the campaigns of BO3&4 (4 bc it didn’t even had a campaign lol) but SHG hasn’t made their own standalone great CoD game so far, AW was meh, WWII wasn’t good enough to say the least, and Vanguard isn’t much better than WWII
I hate vanguard and infinite and WW2 more than Ghost.
@@growngamer12 Why infinite though?
I'm pretty sure you got a kem strike from the field order cuz you were on strike zone which was the only map that would change its environment when a kem strike launched, you could get them in care packages on that map too but only strikeout
I will say. The oil rig mission is actually really good
contrarian take. Them hit boxes though
Well they solved this problem... By making shitter games so people would forget about it. Pure. Fucking. Genius.
And in doing so there a bunch of 7 year olds claiming it to be the Holy Grail but get mad me saying WaW was the most innovative COD game.
And Ad Victoriam Elder
Amazing world of gumball logic
@@thegamingcrusader9926 Ahhh WaW........ Good ole days
And they've been making shittier games ever since, lol
COD Ghosts was okay, but it was obviously the point when the franchise became stale.
Yes. It didn't introduce anything that amazing, altough it wasn't necessarily bad. Some would argue that Mw3 or Bo2 was the turning point, but those games had an amazing single player and a great third sidemode respectively, along with other goodies. This one however was lacking in a sense.
Trevor Lahey ghosts was ok for me, but I agree it felt stale
@@cornerianbird4767 I remember Mw3 was when people started to get sick of the franchise, because it didn't offer anything new compared to MW2. BO2 delayed the inevitable and was the end of an era in which COD was at its A-game. But I'm hoping the MW reboot won't be a dud, and so far I'm pretty optimistic about its chances.
In all honesty I really liked Extinction mode. I found it really fun and I enjoyed playing it with friends. It was a breath of fresh air from Zombies
@@jdawg8487 honestly I think it will pretty good, but I think the days of being blown away by cod are long gone the last cods have been playable but not really that memorable mw could be amazing but will have to see
2023 Mw3 makes Ghosts look like a masterpiece
Agreed.
For me ghost was by far my fav cod
@@LeafBlade3436 I respect that :)

@@hgyuuuuhj098 it's less shit today if you play it
@@jackingofftoraelilblack2342 I'm playing extinction rn and I fucking love it
Well sometimes when you stay away from something of a long time you start to forget what makes the game bad. like one time me and my friend wanted to go back to destiny 1 but when we started to play we remembered why we didn’t get that many hours into it.
@@hgyuuuuhj098 It's arguably better than both BO2 and MW2.
I remember playing Ghosts after school with my boyfriend 9 years ago before AW came out. I really, truly miss it. Maybe it's nostalgia, but I believe this game came out during the wrong time. Had it come out now, it would've been better received than the garbage Activision puts out today. I miss it and had great memories of the multiplayer. I never got mad at it, or any older COD. Today, I can't play a single COD match without enduring a player who acts like their life depends on a win
MI just need to put this out there.
A Call of Duty Ghosts Reboot.
Imagine:
- an actually good story
- mechanics reminiscent of the Modern Warfare 2 remake stealth missions, with the prybars made out of fan blades etc
- ACTIVISION TEAMS UP WITH THE GUYS THAT MADE GHOST RECON / SPLINTER CELL - so we actually get the stealthy geurilla warfare we all thought we were going to get.
- As such, have tie ins with either Ghost Recon or Splinter Cell (even subtly, like Scott Mitchel/ Sam Fisher doing briefings etc)
As a result, this would create a direct link with Call of Duty Ghosts, Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell, Rainbow 6 (as R6 ties in with Ghost Recon) and The Division (As it is confirmed R6 and T.D are set in the same universe)
- ACTUALLY USE MW GHOST, TYING IN WITH MW.
This would create a point of convergence, between Call of Duty and the Clancyverse, also meaning characters could be shared between games. Keegan could be an R6 operator. Nokk or Jaeger appearing in Modern Warfare. Kozak appearing in the next Division. Price being mentioned in a Splinter Cell (as if they're ever making one of those again)
This is never gonna happen, but imagine if it did. A Ghost Recon Future Soldier style (in gameplay) COD Ghosts Reboot that ties in (if not in a "My aunt's married cousin's husband's son's daughter twice removed" kinda way) with the Clancyverse. Unique and compelling gameplay and story, with many chances for Activision to make a fuck tonne of money to our ENJOYMENT. That would be fucking crazy. Awesome, but crazy.
No greater feeling of loneliness than being the only one who enjoyed Ghosts.
You aren't alone.
You are not alone, brother.
Looks like I just found some ghosts players to join
I actually did enjoy it, not my fav but still better than BOIIII
Louis Kelemen bo4 is worst cod of all time easily
How can anyone hate this game? Fish will move out of the way when you swim towards them. This is a revolutionary masterpiece. It even has a dog. For you dog people.
Yeah thats why i am Playing cod compaighn right now
Ppl just hate innovation, they all sucked MW3 hard when it was just a copycat of MW2.
It's only the bad community
Spartan Q77 ‘masterpiece’
I think we have very different definitions of masterpiece
@@bungiescams3292 1 he joking.
2 this game is a masterpiece for real
I think the voice acting on the first cutscene for the story was amazing, always gave me chills when he said “sad stuck to their skin like a shroud, changing them, anointing them”
The mission where you crash in a jungle and get to sneak around and take out enemies all stealthily was really good then after that segment it just devolves into another run of the mil cod mission.
...no? You don't need to kill enemies in "The Hunted" mission other than completing the completely alone segment, if you LISTENED to what your teammates say, you can complete thus mission all calm and steady without an open shooting
"Look at that texture in the water dispenser."
Cause yea, thát's what CoD players care about.

Did you not know we only play it for the water dispensers
We do have to stay hydrated.
Yeah but the game is trash but newer call of duty’s are worst
"If I accidentally opened this game I would think I was playing Black Ops 2." they have absolutely no resemblance to each other.
How? Because CoD is the same shit every year...
Mr. Warden is it though?
Mr. Warden why yes of course same shit last year
Miggy O. I can’t tell if y’all are being sarcastic, but I really don’t care either. The games definitely aren’t the same every year though
@@darealdirtydan1561 they're definitely not the same. Every company does it different. I loved ghost tho it got so much hate for no good reason
This was my first call of duty and I loved it, but I didn’t get internet access till after everyone moved on so I only got to experience offline play. One thing you didn’t mention that I didn’t like was the at in the campaign and I think extinction there were weapons that I really liked but couldn’t use in multiplayer
Is it bad that this was my favorite call of duty game I’ve ever played. I loved the emblem system, I loved the dogs, I loved the random Michael Meyers, I loved the guns. It was the first call of duty I played and got into. Also the clan battles was awesome
Even though it sucked Ghosts had some of the coolest weapons like the Honey Badger, Remington R5 and Chainsaw.
Loved ghost

Bleron BTW but it’s not trash
@@LHERANDEZ i don t like it
I know I’m not the only one one to say this. Nevertheless I used to play COD Ghosts with my Dad when I was younger it was a lot of fun especially when my Dad would use the CHAINSAW LMG and would complain about the bots killing him every time he’d reload it was really funny hearing him complain (and yes at the time when I was on the PS4 playing it I had no PlayStation Network so we just played offline) On another map of which I don’t know the name of all I know is that it had an elevator anyways. One of my favourite things to do was stand in front of the elevator and wait for a bot to go up. Upon the elevator door opening I would gun him dead. Change of topic The Act Man already talked about the interactivity with the maps but what he missed is the things you can destroy with equipped weapons like on the map with that dumbass area in which you could drown if you fell in there was a bus dangling off of a cliff and I think if you hit it with a rocket or a “trinity missile” it could fall of I could be wrong though. I may have grown up to hate it yet I still have some fond memories of it. What I’m saying is that COD Ghosts will always be in my heart. That is my typical CZcams essay writer comment.
They could've done so much with Rorke, maybe instead of using Elias' pov, you filled the shoes of Rorke and it would show just what exactly the federation did to him to brainwash the dude to fight for them.
It'd give us insight into the federation and Rorke, and show us just what makes them tick
That would've been badass
My own plot ideas:
Rorke tells his own story during the interrogation, you play as Rorke and the mission ends with you being rescued by Federation soldiers.
Logan really should have been s chatacter that talks and the last mission should've been through Hesh's pov.
And finally I think there should have been more missions where you play as random guys, kinda like BO2 special ops
How dare you actually try to write the story in a compelling way with interesting ideas!
"COD : Ghost is the most hated COD"
infinite Warfare : Am I a joke to you?
You’re high af
Modern warfare actually has a decent campaign in a decent few things compared to ghosts.
Then you're correct. In terms of multiplayer, both of them suck

I played the crap out of ghosts when it came out. The story was about a legendary group of soldiers with new blood coming in and one was "left behind" in the past causing him set out for revenge so the plot made sense enough.
I think extinction was a net win, infinity ward kind of has a track record of a linear decline of "good" DLC's throughout a cod game (advanced and infinite warfare) but PoC, nightfall, and mayday were really fun maps imo. Adding the teeth system and seeing dual class and a panacea ammo type made me want to grind the mode.
Multiplayer was for sure the weakest part for me. The guns felt good and I believe it started the trend of not having blacked out sniper scopes but it had some amazing killstreaks. The maniac juggernaut was always on my loadout and The reskin to Michael Myers on the cabin map made playing Mike Myers all the better. The LOKI satellite is also my favorite max killstreak in any cod it was unique and i never took it off.
Ghosts multiplayer really failed in the map department however. There were some maps that I didn't mind like fog or prison break, but generally there were only maps that I either didn't mind or didn't like.
Stonehaven is a different case. Stone haven is an affront to god and I blame most of the problems in the world on the creation of that map.
I think my favorite thing about ghosts is that underberral shotgun/launchers replaced your lethal so you could just press r2 instead shaping to it from left direction
"You assault Rorke's train."
Outcome? *Train go boom*
😂😂😂😂
😂😂

Everybody will hate me but cod ghost was really fun to me
don't be it's your opinion and it's normal to have different opinions (unless if you're in a dictatorship of course)
I agree it was one of the best cods for me? other than infinite warfare ive enjoyed ever single infinity ward cod!
tbh i played ghost for 1 year on xbox 360 vs mw3/mw2/bo1 for half that.
@@Reikoku. I played ghost so much I was 4th in world on the leaderboards.. I was in shock when I found out it had been voted the worst cod of all time
Yeah.. my favourite also.
I personally enjoyed the game a lot. And my brother did too. My favorites ever I think it’s the OG modern warfare and Black Ops 1. Also new Modern warfare when warzone launched. But ghosts has a place in my heart due to many factors. It was different. People always ask for change and when they get it they cry about it. I don’t understand that.
Clan Wars was the best time I ever spent playing call of duty. The community was weak as hell and still is tbh. Nowadays they're more concerned with movement tech than actually being good at the game.
I heard a legendary quote once
“train go boom”
SAX that line is better than any piece of writing in Ghosts

Same here. I replayed the last mission cause I thought it was multiple choice. The devs couldn't blame people for thinking that when it was the COD after BO2!
which ending did y’all get on ghosts? mine was where dog meat from halo infinite ops 4 deletes the universe
@@realspartan5206 Lol! I'm speechless.
something that REALLY bugged me with Ghosts was that the fancy new blur around the scope was horribly optimized, even on a very good PC for the time. the game itself ran at 100+ FPS for me, but had horrible stuttering and was dropping FPS into the low 10s when aiming down sights.
I loved ghosts. Particularly the multiplayer. It felt different from other cods.
Likewise i think stonehaven was a great cod map.
Some people want an arcade feel, some people want something between cod and battlefield.

No. It's still dogshit, but still better than some recent CoD game(Vanguard)
@@broken75.20 well, I had to admit, this thing still better than MWIII 2023 entire campaign
cod ghost was super fun for the month i played the multiplayer on pc, i bought the game months after release and had to upgrade my pc from 4gb to 8gb just to get it playable for multiplayer. since it was one of the first games to require more than 4gbs of ram with it being an odd 6gb.
The last cod before i played ghost was mw3 so the leap in advancement in the create a class was amazing. I ran knife only super fast ninja builds with my favorite killstreak being the running maniac. The only change i didnt like was the melee animation was a real animation sometimes and not just a swipe to kill people so it was harder to chain knife kills but was still super fun with the perk that gives you a UAV blip every time you kill someone so you could always find another person after your first kill.
The campaign was better than mw3's, wwII, BO2, BO3, and cold war's. And the game had the best Intro
Ghost was actually good, it just got released after black ops 2 so everyone was expecting something better then bo2, so it looked shitty but it was alright
That's what I'm saying! Is it a masterpiece? Good heavens, NO! I'm not saying that. I'm saying that due to BO2, people had near IMPOSSIBLY high expectations.
That's why it got so much hate at first.
AGAIN, because I know some dimwit will think I'm saying it, I'M NOT SAYING THE GAME IS PERFECT! In my opinion, it's only good for Extinction.
@@thomasmurrell9832 exactly! I loved ghosts and still hop on my ps3 and play it at times but the same happened with Infinite Warfare. Infinite Warfare was a good game with ridiculously fun zombies and an alright campaign. The multiplayer was also kinda fun and wasn't even that bad. People just wanted boots on the ground so they hated it because it was futuristic and they didn't want that.
@@maleficent1977 I never played IW, but I saw the UNGODLY amount of hate (seriously, RIP that trailer) it got. I may not play it, but i feel you. It's funny how while not perfect, these games are now sort of hidden silver.
@Tord Bord AW came out in 2014, ghosts came out in 2013
But people didnt like bo2 back then so how could they have possibly expected something better?
For anyone who's wondering why Ghosts suddenly looks a lot more appealing nowadays, it's because at the time of Ghosts' release, this wasn't the stellar CoD that the first couple of Black Ops installments and Modern Warfare trilogy were. It failed to live up to those CoDs, which tend to commonly be seen as the golden years of Call of Duty.
The reason Ghosts looks so appealing now, is because since 2013 came along, we've had nearly a decade's worth of worse Call of Duty games than Ghosts.
Exactly it’s all about perspective at the time we just came from goated ass cod games now shit after shit after shit
Nah man ghost was always goated xd people just hated on it cause it wasnt a mw4 or bo3 xd
I actually hated the entire blops series and thought Ghosts was WAY better. That campaign was ass though on Ghosts. Lol
I like Ghosts a lot, especially the Ranked Wars system. After Ghosts it wasn’t until 2019 with Modern Warfare that I enjoyed a COD game… I bought every call of duty since call of duty big red one, and it only got bad to me after Ghosts it deserves respect
I think this is applying to hundreds of games from past gens, you never appreciate something until it’s gone...
Crazy thing is, this was actually my first real introduction into tournament multiplayer. I almost want an Xbox One. I was beaten out by little Asian girl using a honey badger. The weapon had been banned in the tournament, but because she was so young, nobody bothered to correct her. I believe she was 11 LMAO I made it to round 3 😂 my point being, the multiplayer was so lit that it even pulled me in from whatever corner of gaming I happen to be interested in at the time
there were tow things that I loved about Ghost, infected mode (not extinction) and the honey badger (one of the best COD smgs)
“This is the worst Call of Duty ever”
Vanguard: *allow me to introduce myself*
I like vanguard
*Allow me to introduce myself
Vanguard is actually a good game. The MP is imo enjoyable to play because I can play whatever combat pacing I want. Slower paced or faster paced. The zombies pales in comparison to Cold War but still I think is a little over hated. If that was the first zombies mode and WaW Nacht and the maps that came after were now, people would love the old zombies and hate the new ones. It's mainly nostalgia driven and assuming everything is bad now compared to back then. I do believe Vanguard isn't good, borderline bad, but that's relative to what it should be. This game would've been good a decade or so ago, but when things should be more content filled now and obviously having round based maps, Vanguard zombies, relative to what it should be, is bad. Back then, would've been good, but right now, should've been better.
“Let me allow to introduce myself”
SBMM: Allow me to introduce myself
After watching that intro I feel like I’m the only one that actually loves cod ghosts.
I love ghosts
It's good but it got the hate because the maps suck ass
The multiplayer wasn’t my favorite, but I *think* it introduced my favorite game mode, infected.
I loved the Campaign, in fact I finished it in 8 hours
Extinction or whatever that alien game mode was, was a nice different take on zombies, and I thought it was okay.
i liked it
Saaame
lol I loved campimg in that game. genuinely loved that game as camping was better than running around with smg
Possible hot take. Ghosts is better then Vanguard because Ghosts actually tried and had some original ideas, say what you will but a ton of effort went into this game. It may have been misplaced or missed the mark in some areas, but there is clear love and attention to detail.
Vanguard felt like they just asked chat gpt to write a ww2 game
As someone who didn't have internet access, Ghost was one of my favorites.
It's like the only one you could play tdm, s&d, domination, etc against a full team of bots.
survival mode with the ai was my favorite
Black ops 2 did that and had sit screen. Survival mode was great.
I always think I'm a pro beating those bots lol
@@zherean42069 those shield guys always got me. My ai buddy revived me and carried
Yeah that was one of my favorite parts too.
"The maps aren't bad, they are just bad for CoD!", Perfectly said my mind!
Sort of like Minecraft story mode and Halo 5
I don't think truer words have been spoken about the maps before.
I felt pretty proud of that one tbh
Those maps would've fitted Medal of Honor imo, especially Stonehaven.
Same they feel like battlefield
Loved ghosts, purely because they weren't afraid to do something new. Nowadays developers make the same shit that brings alot of cash and are too scared to make something new. Same with infinite warfare, the campaign in that game is outstanding, visually and creatively.
Honestly the best thing about this game for me was having bots for Infected. I would spend literal HOURS with my best friend trying to get KEM Strikes on that top part of Freight on split screen
I didn’t know that so many people hated this game. Lol I actually really enjoyed Ghosts.
I also liked it
BRAVO-6,GOING DARK
Price on me
*I can agree with you on that; Ghosts was my most played game when I had my PS3; I may have gotten an Xbox 1 but when I got Ghosts, it wouldn't let me play and Gamestop wouldn't let me return it...*
This game was terrible. The maps were bad and the guns were just boring and weak. The game even looked bad and dry. I played it for like a month before quitting at launch. I honestly had a better experience with extinction than the multiplayer. It’s the worse cod imo I had more fun on infinite warfare even though that’s the next worst
Extinction is massively underrated. Mayday's bossfight was insane
AGREE
I really liked extinction, I thought it was pretty fun
@@jeaux42069 YEA
One boss fight doesn’t make the game mode good. It was okay to play the first time but then it got old really fast.
Facts
This was one of my favorites...im sorry. The squads mode was my favorite too! I loved building, leveling up, and customizing my squad of operators to pit them against others
I don´t agree with that "a story needs conflict" argument, if that was true the whole Slice of Life genre wouldn´t exist
"The fish swim away when you get too close to them!" - Infinity Ward, not realizing you could do the same shit in Mario 64
What makes it eben funnyer is the fact that this game was an XBox One launch title.

I liked ghosts alot, i had alot of friends who played it, it was the first game that added clan battles which was just fun, the stealth or "ghost" capabilities was the best in the franchise. Wearing a guillie suit with the certain perks could make you virtually invisible with no name plate and infrared being able tonsee you, truly a fun time. There were only 2 maps i thought were bad were Stonehaven and Chasm. They were only "bad" because they were too large and used in 6v6 maps
Call of Duty Ghosts had this unique style for me. This was my first COD game I genuinely played a lot.
Me who genuinely enjoys Ghosts: *chuckes* im in danger
I also enjoyed Ghosts as well
Same
Still waiting for a sequel :')

It had some cool weapons, some cool killstreaks, and i liked the local deathmatches with bots for my son who was probably too young to have fun in competitive online play.
Yeah extinction I remember putting a fair amount of time into it. Beat it a handful of times and it definitely lost the appeal. I stopped playing ghosts before ever getting the other maps for extinction but... still wish they would've had more at launch, for sure
Fun fact: at the very end of the campaign, there is a short cut-scene that shows Logan in a pit. That pit is located in the jungle and what the cut-scene means is that Logan is being brainwashed, by having him alone in pit in the jungle. Look up it up
just like the second ending of cold war

COD ghost is a higly underrated Masterpiece , each map had exclusive stuff like destroyable walls , interactable Doors , exclusive killstreaks . It introduced sliding to the franchise , graphics we're great , it's round defender mode was súper innovative having chance to unlock a minigun and summonig an allie . It's killstreaks we're special , having the Odin , the loki , the riot shielder . I never got to play the campaing but from what i know it was diferent to the other call of duty games it was súper original and. Innovative the Best ones among cod bo 3 , cod aw and cod 4 , doubless
I loved ghost’s campaign especially the one mission where you zipline to a skyscraper break into it and then at the end it blows up
"The Federation United all of South America under one banner" That's already unbelievable because no way in he'll would Argentinians and Brazilians ever work together no matter how much was at stake
That's 100% true lmao.
fuck argentina
I bet the Federation would fall apart in a matter of time. I’m not too familiar with South American politics but I’m pretty sure most countries there have little in common with each other in most cases.
@@jdawg8487 they actually have more in common than actual differences.
@@jdawg8487 from what i've heard, many south american countries hate america
i'm not saying that the people there hate america, i'm saying all their governments hate america. and i heard this theory that ghosts actually takes place after the evil ending of black ops cold war, where nukes go off and america is suspected to be the culprit, and that really makes sense. the federation silently forms in the 1980s after the nukes, attacks central america (then elias' story takes place with america backing its central american allies), and then finally attacks america in 2013
"Ghosts had the worse campaign" and later comes BO3, and BO4. Oh wait...
Right😂 I actually loved cod ghost's tbh
Aye BO3’s campaign was amazing, you just needed to actually understand the point within it:)
I really loved ghost but that is probably because everyone is complaining about the sizes of the multiplayer maps and I am more of a campaign person and I really thought that ghost was the second best cod game (with mw3 on top) and that it needed a sequel.
At least BO3 campaign had fun gameplay. There was so many gadgets and tools to mess around with. I appreciate that at least, but yeah story is terrible.
Dude I didn't even know wtf was going on in the bo3 campaign at the end I didn't even know one of the characters name . To this day I still don't know what the point of the story was.
This is the first cod game i ever played. I always liked good campaigns or story modes. But just like every story….it ends….and I still want to play something
Bruh, MW23 makes Ghosts look like The Last of Us 1
