      What I predict:
      1. Extinction. Story/gameplay
      2. Private match (The Ai/modes)
      3. How Logan and Rorke get brainwashed like Mason which could make for an insane story continuation.
      4. Multiplayer (Unique perk system/ killstreak) Support is actually not that bad in this game.

    One detail I find the most intriguing was, when Rorke tried to persuade Logan to join Him and the Federation numerous times and even in the post-credit scene. We can see Rorke succeeded recruiting Logan by forcing and putting him into the exact, same torturous process he went through. When he was captured by the Federation. Great video by the way, I just hope you add more clips to add some context to your view.

    the era of experimental cod was very hated but i enjoy cod when it doesnt take itself too seriously. i just wish they had expanded more on the characters and relationships since the game is meant to be abt brotherhood and all that. the missions felt repetitive (aside from the hunted, i was gripping my controller so hard i couldve broken it) and they could've done a lot better w Rorke as well as the characterisation of the federation but smth doesnt need to be perfect to enjoy it. really hope theres a ghosts 2 id eat that up immediately

      Especially in how the federation was formed and why it turned into a union of Latin American states bent on competing against the USA and other powers. And why they’re going after the USA of all superpowers. Plus how ghosts become to be. If Simon ghost Riley had connections with the ghosts team themselves.

    • @CevicheGato
      @CevicheGato Před 19 dny +1

      Maybe how the federation was founded. How the USA created their own worst enemy. That China is a military superpower that bailed out the near collapsing Chelonia and uses Chelonia as some neutral free trade zone between the USA and their allies. As well as China, Brazil, and Japan and their allies. Chelonia suffered a financial collapse

    Definitely one of my favorite cod games. I am looking forward to Ghosts 2, and we need to get the closure we need because, when I saw the cliffhanger, a big question mark left my mind for almost 10 years about what happened to Logan. Maybe, who knows, there will be a crossover between modern warfare and ghosts, and only time will tell. 🤞

    It's so funny that I've serached deep in the web for cod Ghost. Then contacted youtubers and now everyone is talking about it after they said it was trash. Vanguard was just the straw that broke the camels back.
    Ghost has the most beautiful customization. In private match it allows you to creative hundreds of gameplay styles. NO ONE HAS TALKED ABOUT THAT. Ive discovered it while experimenting with the game which is why im still able to enjoy it. This basically gives me creative mode you just have to set it up. Extinction has its own completely different story with twists and turns which something cod needs for a refresh.

  • @egyptiandoge
    @egyptiandoge Před 19 dny +6

    I think COD Ghost's campaigning failings came from a combination of issues.
    1) The story wasn't great, it started out sounding cool about the fictional Special Forces team known as Ghost (good Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon didn't sue Activision). But then it slowly devolved into a manhunt with a bunch of filler missions. The manhunt aspect is what kills it for me, I thought we were going to be a guerrilla special forces unit surviving in a warzone, every operation we pull is conducted with shoestring budgets, and the gameplay, and missions are going to be designed around aspects of Guerrilla Warfare, indirectly affecting the enemies and sapping the morales, cohesion, and resources of a larger force.
    2) The villain is also another let down for me and this one is a big deal. In previous COD, we had historical bad guys like the Nazis for WW2 settings, the Vietcong in the Vietnam War, or fictional ones like OpFor, Ultranationalists of Zakhaev and Makarov. The bad guys at least fit the settings and had their leaders given something of personal motivations that naturally formed. Namely, Zakhaev wanted to restore the Soviet Union, Makarov wanted the Russian Empire back, and more. In the case of Ghost, Rorke was just some traitor who got brainwashed. The concept sounds like something of a supporting villain you take down in the middle of the game. Not to mention how everything seems to play out in Rorke's favor, ranging from him surviving gunshot wounds, survived drowning, and able to kidnap one of the protagonists. That seems like a giant cop-out and the writers were probably trying too hard to make a sequel before their current one works well. The Federation is also not characterized in any way shape or form for the settings. Their leader hates America and that's it. I can't wrap my heads around what makes him hate America. Their rise to power is also contrived around just having Venezuelan oil and then somehow all of South America band together to invade the US. Even Cordis Die of Raul Menendez has a fleshed out rise to power.
    3) The gameplay for the campaign is also another problem. I think it still falls back on those run-n-gun set pieces way too often. The game doesn't feel like it gives off the feeling of being a special forces unit that relies on stealth, guerrilla tactics and operations to achieve their successes. Ghost's campaign should have been designed like All Ghillie Up and One Shot One Kill from COD4 but with the added benefits of Black Ops 2 sandbox approach so that you play as a Ghost have more freedom to your actions and how to achieve a linear set of objectives.
    Overall: They should have made it like Red Dawn 1984. If they want to keep the invaded USA settings, they would need to cut the whole WMD plot and reshape the entire campaign to be about the Ghosts' struggle behind enemy lines. Their job is to be the stay-behind force, they sap the Federation's armies, morales, resources and capping off leaderships, command chains to disrupt the Federation's invasion plans for a specific sector of the frontline. Like say the overall plot is the Ghosts trying to stall or divert an entire Army Group of the Federation away from the frontline, their operations start to panic the Feds leadership. This leads to the changing command structure and villains. The villain started out as simple troops led by some colonels or generals at the rear, guarding occupied territories, rear-echelon duties like protecting logistics. But then the Ghosts start to degrade them so badly, the Feds began to deploy their own Special Forces to the area with a better commanding officer. That's when the campaign has you finding out if you have been infiltrated by a spy, fighting off enemies who are as capable of ambushing you, so on so forth. Your unit also began to lose members for every major victories you made. Maybe culminating into a do-or-die final showdown.

    I think the game is ok for the most part, i would think a remake of this game would be great. For example: the story is okay, imo but It could use some work, and i hope logan actually talks. Multiplayers maps are too big for me, and there should be more unique maps instead of rehashes of old maps. Finally. Extinction is fantastic because it's not another zombie mode, but It's actually trying something new. Unfortunately, there are a few problems that are holding it back. 1. It's very linear and not replayable. 2. The teeth upgrades are very unbalanced. After picking all of them, you would become unstoppable. 3. Some things in the armory are either to weak or very overpowered for example: The armor supplies are op it would take all of the damage, which is great, but the relic that would make cryptids do more damage only affects health and not armour.

    @AM_61102 Před 6 dny

    Honestly this game needs a complete rewrite. First things first we need to know what the federation wants and how they came to power and why America hasn’t butted in yet. I’ve always had this idea that most cod games are connected in some ways and I’m fairly certain that Raul Menéndez’s death is canon in BO2. I imagine that after his death he was immortalized as a martyr and gave rise to other organizations and groups to rise up and unite i.e. The Federation, which explains general Almagro’s disdain for Americans and the West

    • @AM_61102
      @AM_61102 Před 6 dny

      Also the game needs to slow down the pacing a lot especially in the early missions. We need more stealth and we need to feel like we are the only ones who can take down the federation since America cannot. Missions like Hunted and Clockwork were awesome and I wish we had more of those sequences. Third: Gabriel Rorke should be portrayed as a more selfless character not a hellbent one who is willing to jeopardize his entire mission and team’s lives for a simple bounty. At least give a reason as to why General Almagro is such a bitter rival to him without completely rehashing Woods and Menendez’s dynamic

    • @AM_61102
      @AM_61102 Před 6 dny

      And for the love of god you cannot have a compelling story and arc about brotherhood and teamwork with a silent protagonist. Logan needs to have a voice and he needs to feel real. Give us another Simon Riley at the very least. The whole story just forced the family stuff into it without actually setting the pieces and building moments between the two protagonists

    • @AM_61102
      @AM_61102 Před 6 dny

      And finally the ending needs to be addressed, i don’t care how much torture you have endured, no human is withstanding a .44 magnum bullet at point blank range even in the distant future with better protection, also how was rorke able to hold his breath for so long with no doubt a collapsed lung and while bleeding profusely? I honestly hate almost everything about Rorke. If he’s going to be a ghost killer he needs to be elusive and mysterious, a supernatural legend who can kill the supernatural. Give him a badass name like El Tormento (Spanish for the storm as a nod to his brutal tactics and torture methods, but also his ruthless efficiency). Change his design, swap out the durag for a full face covering and make him adorn federation uniforms just to rub in the wound with salt a little more
