** The Official Call of Duty: Ghosts (CoD 2013) thread ***

I don't get snipers in this game. Other people use them and they only have to fire in the general vicinity of where I am and I die. I use them and have somebody centred in my crosshairs and I only get a hit marker :confused::mad:
 
Because this isn't battlefield where you can camp in a bush, spend and age lining the shot up before you shoot.

It's about reacting fast and being able to aim quickly.

In this game if you miss your shot with a sniper, you're dead almost instantly, because you die so fast.
 
Anyone been playing extinction? Completed it last night on my own, it's a pretty poor copy of zombies/left for dead and too easy to boot!

It seems to be easier playing solo. I've completed it a couple of times with others online - only played solo to get the loot 40 items achievement.
 
Not sure who's t'internet was bad a minute ago but don't think it was mine. My nats open and it tested 30 down and 2 up. Off for some food now, be back on laters if anyone's about.
 
How does the MP compare to Black Ops 2?

I've enjoyed a lot of the CoDs in recent years but feel it's much of a muchness these days.

I'm also a Battlefield fan, and I have BF4 already. BUT...I do kinda miss the ease of dropping into a game of CoD for 10 mins here and there (BF games can last a looooong time!).

I can't justify both because of cost and time available to play, but I am twitching a bit to try CoD Ghosts so I can compare it to BF4. But of course, that would mean taking a financial hit on whichever one I decide not to keep.

Was Mutant Doctor by the looks of things, I'd had enough for one day anyway.
 
As an experienced and not too bad CoD player, after 25 hours of gaming time I'm done with the multiplayer aspects of this game.

Firstly the spawns are awful. This always seems a common moan with the CoD titles but in this one they're worse than ever. For example if you spawn in the main castle on the map Stonehaven you may as well commit suicide as an enemy is sure to wipe you out within seconds. And I've just played a game on Flooded in which we were spawning in a room with an enemy IMS. Genius. All of the spawns are the same; much too close to enemy positions.

Secondly by increasing the routes through the maps and giving every single room or alley at least 2 or 3 entrances IW have created the perfect rushing gun game. As long as you don't mind a lot of being shot in the back or being shot from 3 different angles that is. In short, most of the maps and games are absolute structureless chaos. Annoying and it turns the game into a button bashing exercise.

My next main gripe is that they've made the player models so difficult to see, especially considering the sprawling space. I did a comparison with MW3 and they're so much smaller and darker in the new game, and even the player labels don't show as soon and are smaller.

And lastly the icing on the cake, the final nail in the coffin. Dogs that can't be stabbed, that kill in milliseconds, and that take a full clip to kill. Need I say more.

After playing bit more last night I have to say I completely agree with above.
 
You can knife the dogs though :)

I agree with the rest though. This game is pants.

I have to admit though, some of the guys on this game are awesome. The reactions and awareness is unbelievable that some people have on this game.

I am a odd one though. I think BO2 was the best online experience out of the COD series.
 
I decided not to break the seal on my copy and will return it. I want to play the SP but might as well rent. Feedback put me off a bit. Once I have the rental I will make my mind up then about the MP when dedicated servers are up and running, until then I couldn't face £40 on a COD game. I've justified it to myself in the past with supermarket deals.

wise decision :D
 
Let's face it, CoD online has been pretty shoddy since CoD4.

For me it has gone downhill since MW2, that game didn't have many maps which I liked and there were some hilariously OP stuff especially when you take into account the akimbo shotguns and stacking the Harrier with choppers. MW and WaW were the last really enjoyable online games for me, I just wish we could go back to that era where the maps were lovingly designed and not created seemingly by a random map generator.
 
Yeah i think my cod will fund Fifa14 and cheap copy of black ops2 for the xbox.

I was prestige 8 with a silly high kill/death ratio and all maps packs on the PS3, but i have sold the PS3 now :/
 
I don't know why IW love destruction so much in their maps especially in a game where it's already hard enough to see people.
