Call of Duty: Ghosts

75/100 (XBOX) and 73/100 (PS3), f**king finally true score.

Care packages are relegated to a new "field orders" system that asks you to complete specific tasks to earn a Care Package drop. Some of these are simple, so when you pick up a field order briefcase it might tell you to kill one enemy from behind or get a melee kill. It also might tell you to (...)"humiliate" the next enemy you kill. Yeah. The game actually rewards you for teabagging. This might be the lamest thing to ever appear in a Call of Duty game.

 

 

Call of Duty may have picked up a reputation as one of the laziest, most callously developed cash cows in the business, but I've always believed that reputation was undeserved. Call of Duty: Ghosts, however, with its slapdash campaign and unambitious multiplayer, contains enough factory-standard cynicism to earn itself plenty of scorn. Nothing Ghosts does is especially bad, but nothing Ghosts does is worth paying any attention to. It exists to exist, a stopgap bit of filler spat out as the industry transitions from one generation of consoles to another.

 

 

Contrary to the old saying, you can teach an old dog new tricks. Black Ops II demonstrated that with style. Ghosts, however, is a dog that simply doesn't want to change. It knows what it is, and sticks with it. It would be a respectable endeavor, if it didn't lead to such an underwhelming and predictable little product. What a sleepy, sleepy dog.

 

 

An exercise in apathy, neither Solid nor Liquid. Not exactly bad, but not very good either. Just a bit 'meh,' really.

 

derpGN:

– Maps too large
– Overly complex

People who buy cod will continue to buy cod anyway regardless of review scores. On another note , Battlefield4 felt rather underwhelming to me. As i said. No amount of excess gloom, large maps or collapsing buildings is going to convince a cod player to switch to battlefield. End Of !!!

The maps being too large complaint seems pretty spot on. Was watching a few Twitch streams yesterday and it was taking players forever (compared to the usual CoD time) to find other people to shoot at. It was like they were playing 4v4 in a 8v8 map.

 

But the rest of the complaints about the game....... you could have said the same things about the last 5 CoD games and it would have been more or less correct. Yet those games kept getting 8, 9 and 10s. Whats changed?

Cannot believe you guys enjoyed SP. It is terrible (not BF4 terrible, but still very bad).

 

Also, good PC guy made FoV slider and Activi$ion takes him down.

 

 

An unofficial Field of View (FOV) fix for Call of Duty: Ghosts provided by the Fovely community has been taken down following the threat of legal action from Activision. The FOV is locked at 65 on PC, which is obviously a bit rubbish, and has created demand for the ability to change it.

Multi-player is tedious and very ugly. Jeez. For once, listen to community and make something good.

 

Regarding population, around ~12k players are online, that's it.

Terrible performance.

 

Overall: Very disappointing.

 

Singleplayer, I'm at mission 9, very bad. 5/10

Multiplayer, didn't play much. Will check during weekend. But so far - 6/10, meh.

 

My last COD. They need to take a break and bring something good before it dies. (before TITANFALL and BATTLEFIELD takes entire market).

 

EDIT: Check Steam forum for user views. Nobody is really happy.

 

Also, userscore: 1.8/10

Excellent work!!!! Activision development team has done a fantastic work this time. This is a master piece of art work with significant improvement in game play, graphic, sound effects, everything you can imagine. I would say this game is the best installment in COD series, and even a potential candidate of game of the year.

This game should be archived as the sole representation of our entire existence and cast out into the cold reaches of space to show all life in the universe what mankind was created to make, which is a masterpiece thousands of years in the making combining all of our collective knowledge and resources to make this game. It is so great of an achievement of mankind that I call it a game only for the lack of a word that would properly describe this gift from god.

Everyone, buy now. Act quick!
