Call of Duty: Ghosts

[CommonSyns]

The game is good for me, I usually don't play online much unless its extinction with my friends back in CT.

One thing I have noticed is that extinction is NOT zombies, its a completely different mode all together, in my opinion it makes the map Origins from black ops 2 look incredibly easy, even when playing on original with 4 of my friends usually have all staffs by 11 and upgraded by 12-13 with 2 guns PaP and 3-4 perks. In extinction its fun to be able to buy "Perks" and ammo crates by spending money as long as you have it in your wallet. What gets to me is the sheer amount of aliens that spawn in and that they never stop spawning or give you a break, as soon as the last one dies or you think it dies 4 seconds later your over run again, in zombies it takes a bit for them to get to you, not in extinction. The fact that you are given challenges makes the game harder also, sure you can ignore them but doing that your fucking yourself over by not getting enough skill points early enough or fast enough.

The first weapon you start off with is a pistol and its pretty much useless later on, unless you have the special ammo types, Stun ammo doesn't do anything much in the second part of the map, I've found that the most useful so far is Incendiary ammo or explosive ammo, I haven't come to AP ammo yet, only 100 exp away. Having to kill 4 rhinos with explosive ammo or Incendiary does the same damage as normal ammo because of its thick shell shield hide. Can't be hypnoed either and a lvl 3 I.M.S doesn't do to much either just wastes money you could be using for ammo which is more important, because when your running away they are much faster than you when you turn to attack them making them charge. When the meteors come down usually 2 at a time they release seekers which are just as much of an asshole as the rhinos chasing you. Seekers are faster and explode when they come into contact with you dealing shit tons of damage.

The best setup I've found for me is actually the Medic class, Once you max that out hopefully in the first part of the map you become an unstoppable reviving machine, Just get the riot shield on your back to protect your back and with the added bonus of armor when reviving, advanced health regeneration with unlimited distance team faster health regeneration when everything is maxed for medic class your pretty much surviving everything unless your getting chased by the entire map spawn of enemies. With this class I pick either the 3 round burst pistol or the full auto pistol I don't really max it out maybe to rank 3 to get to carry 2 primary weapons and the pistol. Either have someone be armor supplier or if you don't trust anyone doing it do it yourself, but you need feral instincts and boosters, Feral instincts are good for the fact they boost the duration of the boosters x3 when maxed, The ability to see though walls to see enemies and enhanced hearing and other things, Booster is basically slight of hand and when maxed it gains the ability to revive and repair faster, I think if memory serves I'll check later. I.M.S for defense of the drill or for reviving someone, The only thing the explosive ammo is probably in my opinion is the fixed level of explosives the bouncing bettys because there's 4 I believe and they can take out more than 1 more efficiently than anything else but that's only in my opinion someone else may think differently. When I reach 28 I'm 4 levels away atm I'll pick up the vulture a flying droid like dragon fire or from origins its the maxis drone. The equalizer seems to be only good for destroying the barrier hives doing decent damage more so than the slow helicopter, propane tanks help also.

If your a low rank and only have one person who can get a special ammo type, In my opinion the best choice would be the first ammo choice its just regular ammo but when its fixed it better than a unfixed ammo type, it refills the clip and fills ammo to everything making it full, without the need to reload when you get a special ammo type. Only downside is that it only fills your weapons up with normal ammo not special ammo.

The fact that the relics make it even harder for you to play the game after you prestige in extinction mode is it gets harder to play if you choose to play with relics I think it makes zombies look easy, That and the aliens jump at you and scorpion aliens and their poison puddles of death unless your a medic of at least lvl 3 your going to take damage from the puddle of death.

Extinction is indeed fun and challenging but if you don't have a team that doesn't communicate well you might not make it to far.

My class load out, Medic, Auto Pistol, Explosive Ammo, Boosters, I.M.S, Grenade Turret (until I can get the Vulture 4 levels away)

An alternative to extinction is the mode called safe guard, a much easier version of survival of modern warfare 3. The difference is that there's perks and kill streaks.

As said I don't usually play online multiplayer unless its with my friends, So the addition to Squad training is welcomed by me, but it has from what I can see only some modes you can play, what I've come across is TDM, Kill confirmed, Domination, Blitz and Cranked. Being able to rank up while playing bots is fun for me, before you say anything about me playing bots saying I wont learn anything by playing them, I will say these bots aren't the same bots your used to from black ops series, Until you play them you wont know why, Its like they self learn, You do a drop shot the next one you see will do a drop shot, you see them and start firing they start to weave, they camp also, its quite interesting, much better than any A.I in any game I've come across.

My biggest complaint with the game at least for the Ps3 version is that there's literally not enough people to kill in game, If you play cranked on flood or Stone Haven you'll quickly realize why. Maybe because it was developed for the Ps4 and Super VCR and the ps3 and xbox 360 has its limitation constricted by hardware that it can't play 9v9 I think that if the ps3 could play 9v9 it would be fine. If the DLC has smaller maps that would be just fine, but it doesn't seem likely at all.

That and the fact you rank up incredibly slow and that its made so that its kinda hard to get squad points makes it frustrating to me at least.

I have experienced weird lag spikes, It will be fine for the first part of the game then the last part it seems like everything teleport or some times I'll be running only to teleport back to my original spot like nothing happened by usually coming back dead or just standing there trying to move only to teleport to a random place again. On ThursdayI teleported from outside before the building and then when I stopped lagging I was somehow upstairs inside a building

Other than that its a fun game, Not sure if it will get better for the ps3 or 360 users but I know that it was intended to be played on the next generation systems due to the huge maps and the graphics seem to be lagging sometimes like it takes a minuet for it to render or something.

Umm wtfldr

Jesus long ass post

[RyanJ]

Haha if you guys don't like the team cause your teammates are always bad, I'm always downto play. I'm ranked like 1500 globally in crank while optic is #3 I need to catch up

@Common, I stated it in my long ass post but yeah the maps are too big for 6v6 current gen, next gen will have 9v9 so it should be a lot better the only downside as of now is that even though they are too big you still spawn on each other b/c early testers said it sucks not being "rignt in the action" after dying which is stupid. This is gonna be worse on next gen until they patch the spawns.

IDK if its b/c I was playing Hardcore or b/c it was Kill Confirmed but playing that today I earned Squad points a lot esp with the Double XP I ranked up twice in two hours I think. MSBS with Muzzle Brake & EOTech/ACOG sight is great in HC, on burst kills at long distances.

Ok, is it just me or is Stormfront basically Crossfire on a larger scale?!

THANK YOU JEEBUS! 1 MORE WEEK!

[Baydestrian]

Campaign wasn't perfect but it was action packed with some slow parts which balanced it out. Nice IMO...

So stupid that K/D is now dependent on weapon, K/D for my MSBS is above 1.00 but with Vector I'm in the .8 range

Also, just realized you can change your Operations by clicking on it. Wish I had known that, I completed Grip/Muzzle Brake/Burst Fire 120 kill operations, that's 3 squad points lost there SMH

I'm hearing rumors from youtubers like Ali-A that the dedicated servers aren't up yet. I'm starting to think this is true, I have never experienced this kind of lag before in any call of duty game this badly, But Ali-A also says that the game connection is outstanding compared to the past call of duty games. And that the reason you die so fast in this game is due to the superior connection this game has, But I honestly beg to differ.

Here's where he says that the connection is amazing, And that the dedicated Servers aren't up yet.

And now people are saying that the makers of ghosts are lazy. What do you think.

I heard that the servers won't be up until the next gen consoles come out, but what do I know lol

[Baydestrian]

Yeah Ded servers aren't up....they did copy that but MW2 was so long ago I forgot....also my 1st pic above is dead but Stormfront in this game is the same layout essentially as Crossfire in CoD4 and StrikeZone in this one is the same essential size and layout as Dome in MW3.

Anyways, I'm just happy they patched the Mute option on Monday
