Call of Duty:Ghosts

[ShockGazm]

My personal opinion on Call of Duty: Ghosts

 

To keep the Campaign review quick, I'll just say that it's good, bit too short for my liking (Not the shortest I've played but wish it was a bit longer) and when it comes to replaying the game (I completed the game within 3 days and did some missions again for fun) but I'd wait for a few weeks. I'd give the campaign a 7/10

 

My main review is about the Multiplayer. I'm one of those that buys the game for this. But, I always play the campaign first just to get back into Call of Duty and of course see what the campaign is like. I've been playing COD since Call of Duty 2 and I have to say World at War and MW2 (When there were no Hacks) was one of my favorites (CoD4 will always amazing back then but not so much now). So there's my background.

These games have never failed to activate my sense of enjoyment, unless I'm playing with friends. I've loved playing alongside friends as well as on occasion complete strangers; the games were simply brilliant, engaging and drew you back. I've played the online for a total of 4 hours, yet I'm bored already.

The maps are drab, too big, confusing and the people behind the designing of these maps should re-think about their positions within Infinity Ward. The spawning is unstructured; instead of putting you with your team, you are put at random corners of the map. This causes mayhem as you have no idea if the opposition has just spawned in front, to the side, or behind you. Because of this spawning system, you are killed frequently by people sat in corners or in on the many buildings placed on each map where you can sit and wait.

I've played to a good level on all releases to date. In fact, I'm pretty descent at the game but then CoD isn't exactly that challenging it seems mostly timing and luck is at play a lot of the time. But this disintegrates that by providing heavy, clunky controls where you often find your shots going through people to no effect or falling to yet another 'camper' who is hidden in the grass (There should be a timer for those who stay in one position for too long). I have little doubt that Infinity Ward meant well, but the multiplayer as a whole is so drab and "meh" that I doubt it would do any good. I could go on and complain more about the Multiplayer but I wont but I could... but I wont.

To conclude. I'm not disappointed, but upset that I've been let down by a franchise I used to love. I played a bit of Black Ops 2 sorta near up to release of Ghosts (Sold the game because I was getting bored of that too ) but as of playing Ghosts most days like I did back on CoD4. That will absolutely not happen with Ghosts. Very poor. Buy it if you will play with friends quite often and simply just want to play for giggles but other than that, it's not worth the money and I've played it on Next Gen... it's quite a disgrace. Graphics are slightly better but on the verge of next gen it's not on par at all.
