    Der Multiplayer ist auf jeden Fall mein Lieblingsmultiplayer, super Kill Streaks, mit dem Hund, eine super Idee, auf fast allen Maps eine Spezial Kill Streak und alles zusammen war einfach genial.

    One of the better games in the franchise, it got way too much hate and its very unfair. The game to this day is still very fun and playable. The multiplayer was ahead of its time and the campaign is top 5 in the franchise. There are some issues on the PC version considering the lack of settings, however that does not ruin the experience of the game.

    Despite its flaws, COD Ghosts delivers exactly what fans of the franchise have grown to expect.

A short Single-player Campaign, filled with frantic gunplay, absolutely stunning moments, pure perfection in the shooting mechanics, and overall high-quality fun. The emotional storyline and new characters failed to impress the public, but still got praised by a small minority of gamers like me who actually loved the game.

    Call of Duty: Ghosts' story centers around two Jarhead brothers, Logan and Hesh, who are facing a fictional superpower called The South American Federation. After the energy-producing deserts were wiped out by the wars, the US economy started to crumble. In that wake, the Federation united all of south America under one banner and started their build-up of military and economic power.

    The game starts when Federation special forces take control of a secret Orbital Kinetic weapon called Odin and use it against the US, destroying most of the country and population. This setting is refreshing, considering the overexploited Russian and middle eastern terrorists as the bad guys. But for people like me who live in Argentina, this setting is too sci-fi, It would be more believable if the aliens were coming to invade us, rather than the corrupt and decrepit Latino states could build up military and economic might.

    After 10 years of fighting and being on the defensive, Logan and Hesh are recruited into the Ghosts, an elite squad of soldiers who may be the USA's best weapon against the Federation. Infinity Ward failed to deliver the emotional storyline and compelling new characters they set out to create, as was shown in the trailers and when they talked about the game, they clearly were after doing something meaningful. Many critics said Ghosts is more of the same and that the story is dull and boring. Despite that, I love the Story and the characters. It's dumb, might be cheesy, yes. But I've come to love this campaign even more that the MW trilogy. And let's face it, every COD campaign is about as fun as they are dumb.

    ENHANCED COD

    Call of Duty has always relied on its super epic set-piece moments to create a memorable, action-packed experience. The frequency of these intense scenes has been upped a notch in Ghosts. It's those moments of pure spectacle, which Infinity Ward does so well, that sell the campaign and see the player right through the endless shooting.

    There's a certain sense of familiarity to it all, with new features every now and then to keep it fresh. The weapons feel amazing, the vibration implementation is great, and the shooting feels tight. At the end of the day, Activision is always trying to give players what they want, even knowing that is an uneven constantly changing landscape. I think it all boils down to keeping the same formula, doing small changes and twists, but keeping it COD. Endure the critics for the lack of innovation, but get those sales by giving people what they want.

    That said, the campaign does have its strong moments. As always, COD keeps the gunplay fresh mixing the encounters with the occasional combat hardware. In ghosts, you get to pilot a chopper and even commandeer a tank. There is a lot of variety in the level design. You'll shoot your way through new and interesting environments. From an orbiting space station in zero gravity, defending the beaches of California, a Night skyscraper infiltration during new years eve, and even swimming with the sharks in the ocean. It makes for a visually intriguing contrast to the been-there-done-that feeling of rolling down choppers and shooting middle eastern terrorists carrying AKs. Infinity Ward dropped the pre-mission briefing videos/load screens from previous games and replaced them with stylish cutscenes that further serve this new plot and character focus. But since many gamers experienced them to be less than memorable, it ended up being a shame, those military situational awareness videos built tension and got gamers invested in the mission.    … Expand

    I don't understand why every one hates this game. This a good game. Story is fine. Ending is bad. Characters aren't good or bad. Weapons and mechanics are good. We can use dog Riley to attack enemies. Sometimes we can use drones. Chapter designs are amazing.

    Assim como o infinite warfare, a campanha deste é tão divertida quanto.

Em diversos fui pego de surpresa.

    With the exception of the one crash and one hang, the game ran pretty smoothly for me, then again I have a fairly beefy PC.

    The single player campaign although a little unrealistic and over-exaggerated is entertaining and absorbing. I enjoyed the gunfights and the mixing it up with the dog, tanks, space, choppers, ships, etc. I found the campaign a little too short to justify the $60.

    As for multiplayer, I won't go there because I just don't like multiplayer gaming, at all, since it's always repetitive random gun fights and never a humble sportsman-like games but arrogance, cockiness and obnoxiousness.

    I'd say this game is worth about $30-$40 tops.

    Oh, and those who give this game a 0 out of 10 then start off with talking about how bad the multiplayer is... MULTIPLAYER is an ADDITIONAL feature to SINGLE-PLAYER GAMES, IT'S NOT THE MAIN SELLING POINT!    … Expand
