Относительно предыдущей части смотрится не так уверенно. Так или иначе, игра на уровне.Не такая плохая, как пророчат отзывы. Я прошёл компанию и мне понравилось.

    I thınk there is nothing new with this game. In my opinion, the COD: Black Ops games were better than this one. Honestly, I can't say anything more about this game. 7hrs on record.

    What happened? I have to say I liked Black Ops 2 and I had high hopes for Ghosts but I am severely let down I mean this game is so unoptimized it is pathetic. Why does it run so bad? I have no idea, it is not the graphics they are just pour for a game of this magnitude not like it looks like Battlefield 4 it is not a massive world like Planetside yet it runs worse than those games.

    No good graphics options, no sound options at all (Volume does not count guys) massive stuttering in and out of game frame rates spiking up and down it is just sad. No more CoD for me thanks.    … Expand

    This has to be the most recycled CoD game of all times. The only 'new' feature is 'the dog".

    The multiplayer on the other hand is just the usual stuff we've seen before with some serious 'misses' thrown into the mix. The 'aliens' bit is just a one-time affair, no reason to replay it. The new modes are nonsensical (the "you will now blow up" mode has to be the 'king' here).

    Generally speaking, this franchise just keeps on testing the patience of players with every new release just how many times can this game be re-sold with some slight changes?    … Expand

Good luck aiming at a guy when he's stuttering across the screen like something out of Jacob's Ladder.

    Before, I was enjoying the game because the lag was tolerable, but now? It's awful--and Infinity Ward couldn't care less. This is flat out embarrassing for what is undoubtedly one of the richest gaming companies in the business. On top of that, there are still NO DEDICATED SERVERS. What gives? That was one of the reasons I decided to buy the game, because it seemed like IW was finally making amends with PC gamers and giving us what we've wanted for so long. But it's just the same old crap; broken promises and heaps of optimization issues.

    There is fun to be had in the game if you're very tolerant, but not 60 dollars worth of fun. CoD: Ghosts was my first CoD I've purchased on day one, and will be my last.    … Expand

    One of the worst FPS ever played :
    - Loading time are horribly too long.
    - Lag Latency makes the game unplayable.
    - FOV sets to 65°. No possibility to change that parameter ???
    - graphics are poor and sad.
    - Game play is very slow compare to BO2.
    - Respawn is totally stupid. (Respawn just in front of ennemies ???)
    - Equivalent to free to play Warface ...

    COD Ghost is a total disaster

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is the latest installment of the call of duty series, it has a new engine that is beautiful but in the same time odd. I was impressed by the particle effects (from the grenades etc) but what disappointed me was the story. It was weak, I didn't feel like it was something to me. It didn't feel I cared about anyone in the "Ghosts". In the beginning when you are being dragged to the car you can remember that animation from MW2 ending which is a CTRL C CTRL V like. Graphics overall is a 7/10 for me since it's unoptimized as The single-player as I said was weak, I would give it a 5/10. There was one scene when Logan and Hesh's father showed who he really was. Then Hesh said "Wait you are from the ghosts" in a stupid, horrific bad way. So I can say that the voice acting is a bit i'll give it a 6/10.
    Multiplayer is, of course the same thing every time. Just with new weapons, maps, AND SPAWNS that will literary piss you off so much the same way I have done the last two days...
    Conclusion: The game does not deserve its price tag at 59.99 Euros. It's not worth the money and wait till it's on sale if you want it. This is a big disappointment as the trailer looked good. Avoid the game until sales. I am giving this game a 4/10 because of some good improvements but still negative sides win.    … Expand

    Take for example Team Fortress 2, its a video game that has been changed thousand of times with major and minor updates, and even DLCS, all FOR FREE. (Ex: Mann vs machine)

    Cod instead, gives you 10 maps, and then you have to pay 19$ for 5 more.

    Talking about Cod Ghosts: It looks like a major update to Black Ops 2. Seriously. The plain singleplayer plot is just stupid as hell. South Americans attack USA, because.... because... they became some kind of Nazis who want to establish their superiority? Ok sure... I think the COD developers have run out of enemys (They already used nazis, communists, brasilians, arabs, nazi-communists, europeans, nazi-communist-arabs, etc etc.)
    Talking about the multiplayer, this is the formula:

    The story wasn't interesting, COD changes too little through the years, and the graphics weren't that good at all compared to other games.

    Call of Duty: Ghosts could actually be the worst in the entire franchise. The gameplay is barely different, the graphics are even worse and the optimization is just plane terrible. The only good things about it is the Extinction gamemode, the dog killstreak and the ability to play as a female soldier in multiplayer. That's it.
