Call of Duty Ghosts is...special.
This is a game which sets itself up as a more stealthy title yet one of the first things you do in the game is drive into the enemy base with a truck while you blow everything up, the first actual stealth mission is mission 8 and even then that goes to hell in usual CoD fashion.
A game with the unironic prompt of “Press F to bark”. One where your character meets up with the ghosts and works with them once and then says that he and his brother are determined to become Ghosts now, like what? Yall didnt even know the fuckers actually existed till today and now you want to be one of them because they let you tag along?
One where the US has an orbital fucking missile launcher that can kill tens of millions in seconds and guess what happens...it gets hijacked and then the bad guys (I don’t even know who the fuck those guys are at the start of the game tbh) use it to kill 27 million people in a few secs, set orbital missile launcher also fires directly at your home town yet you, your brother and father make it somehow despite you seeing the laser hit, I guess if everyone else had just run, jumped and drove a car for a bit they could have survived as well.
It’s a game where ALL of South America invades the US. One where the bad guys are unironically called ‘The Federation’. One where the selling point is A FUCKING DOG. One with dozens of tutorials for gadgets/gimmicks you only use once, they get a small tutorial and then they’re out of the game. One with voice acting so weak that when your brother finds out that your father was a part of the Ghosts the whole time he sounds like he always knew and is being sarcastic.
A game in which a weakened US= access to a ton of tanks, helicopters, drones, rocket launchers and also a ton of men.
One where they thought it was a good idea to make the map a lot bigger yet not increase the player count for matches and make the kill time super small so you just kinda run around looking for enemies for 2 minutes then you either die as soon as you see the guy or they die as soon as they see you.
This game also looks terrible even for 2013, it’s too grey looking and the textures often look really low quality and unfinished even on the highest settings. Game also has frequent frame drops despite my pc being powerful enough to run it without issues.
The scopes are awful in this game because, in the name of realism I assume, a lot of the scopes are dirty so it's kinda hard to see the enemies at points and don’t even get me started on the sniper scopes and how they make everything surrounding the scope really fucking blurry.
This is CoD at its worst, it feels like they designed multiplayer maps first then tried to write a narrative to connect them with the singleplayer except that they gave up halfway through and we got this terrible terrible mess of a story.
It’s like a 2/10 game but I’ll raise it to a 3 because it’s kinda funny to laugh at this clusterfuck.
