Call of Duty Ghosts Multiplayer Reveal


Customization: In the past, you customized a class, now you'll be able to customize a soldier who you'll journey with across the breadth of your Call of Duty experience. Ghost features over 20 thousand customization possibilities, including details of how your soldier looks, and whether you are male or female. You can customize a team of up to 10 soldiers, who can all have different skillsets, and you'll earn experience for each soldier you play. This is important because one of the new modes in the game, Squads, allows you to let the AI control your teammates as you play alongside them in various multiplayer matches.
New modes: In addition to the aforementioned Squads mode, Activision showed off another new mode called Cranked, where players face a countdown clock that ticks towards their death. Players can add to their clock with each kill, and as they kill their movements speed up, resulting in a fast paced, frantic match. Another mode, called Search and Rescue has players resurrecting their friends. When players die, they drop their dog tags. If a team member can get to those tags they'll resurrect that player, but if an opponent gets there first, the downed player will be out for the rest of the round.
Dynamic World: Ghost's maps won't be static areas like in previous games, but will be fluid environments that change as the battle ranges on. Players can open up new lines of sight by blowing holes in walls. During the trailer, we watch one player shoot out the tanks at a gas station and cause the station's roof to collapse on top of several opponents. Traversing these environments will also be smoother thanks to a number of systems that Infinity Ward has added to the game. Ghosts features a new mantling system and a lean system that lets you lean around cover without pressing a button. A knee slide also allow players zip around the map and slide into cover quickly.

Mobile: Activision is hoping to expand your Call of Duty experience outside of your consoles will a new Call of Duty mobile app that will integrate with your online profile. With the new app you can check your loadouts, profiles, squads, and prestige level. This app also adds some second screen functionality by allowing you to pick your loadout for your next spawn while playing the game.
Here is the multiplayer Trailer:

My Thoughts: I was really hoping for something different but we get the  the same thing AGAIN.  That's not necessarily a bad thing, because the formula works. Sure, they added changing environments, dogs, and a leaning system, but we have already seen these in other shooters with the exception of dogs. Battlefield 3 has had changing environments forever and there has been several FPS games with a leaning capability. I welcome the innovations because they seem like a good addition to the game,  but it still looks like the same old Call of Duty. Don't get me wrong  the game still looks good. Call of Duty and Battlefield multiplayer has already shown that they are the best and arguably most played out of all competitve multiplayers. And I'm sure the new ones won't be any different. I do like the new modes and customization but that's the only thing they add each entry!(and tweaks) They can go ahead and add these things but also think of something totally new and innovative. I do understand why they are doing this; If it ain't broke don't fix it. They are doing just fine by updated some things every entry but keeping the same basic idea. I just wish they would do something different for those tired of the same old thing.
OK, time for the arguments to fly LOL

  1. Oh well here we go. I like some of the new weapons. But I notice by the end of the video the guy disappear, is this a new thing? Also I notice the shot gun is still a one hit wonder! Oh well. I like the duel rocket launcher and the fact that you can destroy something to cause it to kill a few people was good but its nothing new for single player games but for online game play(I don't remember if any other online game had this, maybe someone could tell me!!). I was expecting some thing to be new. You can be a girl! But if it works don't break it and COD has some of the best online game play out there. They did try new modes but I was expecting lots of new stuff but I do hope they would try "labs" like on Uncharted game series. They can try new stuff on the "labs" and if they do good than they can add what works to the next 5 or more addon packs at $14/addon. We deserve a discounted price!! LOL!!
    I guest like I said before I do know why they don't really want to change something that works. It would be a good seller.

  3. Just tired of the same old game play release every two yearsAugust 16, 2013 at 11:32 AM

    Its look like by what I saw the same old game with only modest improvement. Battlefield look like a better game in graphic and game play! I'm getting tired of the same old FPS that both game are getting away with. What happen was they COD people saw the new system coming but not a whole lots of time so they only made simple changes to COD for the PS4 and xbox one unless they show only the PS3 and xbox 360 version because the game just don't look like the next generations game to me. Don't get me wrong here if you like COD you would be happy with it but don't look for that WOW factor that a normal xbox one or PS 4 game will bring you!
    I'm guess Im just tried of these FPS and I'm going to go back to my type of game and that is Castlevania Lord of shadow 1 to repay it and getting the 2nd one ASAP!

  6. I always like COD, so I will get it for my PS3 I don't have the cash for a PS4 or a xbox ONE. Plus really there aren't that many games on the system I want like Resident Evil or Metal Gear or Silent hill Or Mario brother or metdorid ( for the WillU).Im just going to play my old game system and wait until I see the games I want. Plus Im cheap and always wait until the price drops and there is lots of cheap game out there just like I done when I got the PS3

  10. No I'm getting out of FPS and playing some good old games.I'm setting up my old games system and playing them . Look there are no loading!!! Now why can't the new system have this? No Loading we need this to play the game through out the whole game without waiting or when it does upload it does it at a bad place and ruins the whole story. Come on game system make a system with lots of memory so that you can load the whole game and that is it. You kids don't what it like just to play the game and the whole game without waiting to go through one door and than another one like in Skyrim!

  11. I play both COD and Battlefield and this time around it look like Battlefield takes the new game system and make their own. I mean I did look at both version of COD for the xbox360 and pS3 and than the xbox one and PS 4 version was just a few step away I watch someone play the Xbox One version and it look like the one I was playing...Come COD people.. Make the new games system a copy they deserved.This time Battlefield is the winner for this go around! Because COD didn't change that much.

  13. Tired of the same old gameSeptember 16, 2013 at 8:45 AM

    This game is the same old thing, Would it help them to try a whole new game I know there isn't much they can do because many other FTS .I think they are out of ideas so they just do the same old thing. PS I play the game for both the xbox one and PS3 and it don't look like the next gen to me. The online game play like the old ones but if you want next gen graphics look at another game.
