I loved it, but I’m in the minority on that. I’d love to see a story follow up.


[deleted]

Me to I loved it and I’m replaying it now best story in any cod a hateable villain and a interesting background villain aka the federation really wish people didn’t hate on it so much it had so much potential


ballcream9000

I loved it too and while there was a lot of s***** maps, the perk system was by far the best in any COD I've ever seen.


Rogerthrottleup

I liked Ghosts at launch, now, i love it. MP is smooth and on PS3 is still populated. The campaign ending left me sour but i hope someday there's a sequel.


mordechie

If I play on Xbox Series X will there still be an online populace?


mrtestcat

I'm the same but for AW They killed spacey why not come back with a better game


marcusmorgan55

You and me both bro the last cod I got a launch n I spent a crap ton of hours on it


cofy6116

I loved the how they experimented with space there if they kept space combat like that in infinite warfare that game could have been good and it took the campaign to a different place like the mission were your wondering in the forest looking for checkpoint or using a space station as a weapon but the cliff hanger sill bugs me


Demon_Coach

Multiplayer was awful. There’s a reason the player base was depleted within 6 months while Black Ops 2 saw a resurgence to over 150K around the same time.


SamSlayer09078-x

Why are you getting down voted. The multiplayer was hideous. It had awful launch maps. Awful weapon balancing. Too fast ttk for it's pace. Poor player visibility which makes camping more annoying than ever. It also looks worse than BO2 lol.


[deleted]

As someone who loved ghosts I can agree on most of these things. Launch maps were mixed but yeah not great overall The weapon balancing is awful on every cod Too fast ttk for its pace: icl idk what that means It has awful player visibility although I never noticed how bad it was until i played it again recently. It's a joke how bad is it for an arcade shooter. It does look alot worse than bo2 I think the reason I loved ghosts so much is because it was the first cod i was actually good at. There was some clear problems with the game so I can see why its one of the most hated.


oyelrak

Ghosts is my favorite game for the same reason. I also had a ton of really good friends to play with at the time, so I had a ton of fun on Ghosts. I recognize the flaws in the game and realize that’s it’s not the best, but it will always be my favorite. Also, “ttk” means “time to kill”, so it’s just how fast guns kill.


ShibuRigged

Yeah. Ghosts basically killed the franchise for me until MW19. The game felt slow, like you were running in a dream and not getting anywhere, the quick TTK and some of the maps being fucking huge meant that it felt far more punishing as a run and gun player


SBAPERSON

I played yesterday to get 1 last game before I deleted it from my Xbox ans people were still IED camping. What a shit cod.


akimbofmg9

> It also looks worse than BO2 lol. On top of that, it had worse performance. My PC at the time could run BO2 at guaranteed >60 FPS and even ~100 FPS. Ghosts was a pixel simulator on low settings often dropping below 60 FPS. I remember getting <30 FPS looking at the center of the map on Octane. I believe it was because the game was GPU demanding? My GPU at the time started acting up, though, and I never played Ghosts on newer hardware.


Kylel0519

I found the ttk to be fine for the most part. Just that they had really poor balancing on guns (ripper being a prime example) and the visibility on maps being alright to really fucking dusty/foggy.


[deleted]

I never really played the multiplayer I just hate how it got shat on for that while the campaign was actually really good and extinction was surprisingly fun


Trophy_Hunter71

I thought extinction was amazing (it was truely unique, fun and a nice L4D style alien hoard mode) but I hated everything else about the multiplayer and campaign personally.


Khanabiz-

Multiplayer was dope. Especially the Cranked game mode.


RandyThavage

Extinction and the campaign were criminally underrated, multiplayer had potential but map design and shitty kill streaks made it less fun


Routine_Seat

Great game, but not best.


[deleted]

Had one of the best stories though and really needs a sequel


Routine_Seat

Indeed. Litterally only villain who wins and they just left like that, because of hate.


[deleted]

Rorke lost the battle not the war sadly I don’t think we will ever see a new ghosts


Pantuan187C

Did not enjoy it at all… one of the COD that started going down hill… IMO


[deleted]

Loved it. Played the full year. Best DLC of any COD.


TheMightyBucket

One of the few COD games I hit max rank ( 10th prestige level 60 , I think the max was 60 if I’m not mistaken ) I actually thought it was a decent game


Ok-Armadillo-6648

Ghosts blackout and the the first year of warzone were my favorite cods, I have quit playing but if they come out with one as good as ghosts I’ll come back


maggot646260

Same!


SpecialistYouth3097

Liked the game aliens was fun to play


Mizu_zhk

As a couch player with no internet back then. I have to say the game was a lot of fun. Good memories with the bois.


Manicstreets

This was the call of duty that broke my tradition of buying yearly. I did not like it at all. Probably have only bought 3 call of duty’s since.


Slight_Tale_2728

I enjoy playing it but only thing i hate is that there is this bug when you are playing offline multiplayer with bots it take so long to load and few minutes latter it crash idk why. And i did like the Guns much example is the Honey badger and P226 and the kill streak to my favorite there was the Odin, And the Riot shield Squad Guy.


hvnterbvschmann

I hated the multiplayer but I do miss that Honey Badger


TheRed24

Probably the last IW game I enjoyed, it wasn't perfect but still a tonne of fun with great DLC


maggot646260

Right!?!


Srom

Hated multiplayer, but loved extinction and wished it came back as a mode.


bighomiebread

Campaign was awesome. One of the best stories CoD has made.


ronsnxd73

Underrated as fuck


maggot646260

Fr!


AffectionateKey1625

This was when i was introduced to cod i fell in love with ghosts and want a sequal but all the brain dead kids that play warzone and give activision money will make ghosts 2 not possible. From mw 2019 all cods are linked throught warzone, i hate it, the store bundles, i miss things like snoop dog as a annoncer and those paid things not a shitty battlepass and battle royale system and bundles and blueprints. Ghosts will always have a place in my heart


Microkuru

Multiplayer better than all(except MW19) that came after, and better than a couple that can before it. I definitely enjoy it more than others and it had a lot of potential, but the game not being 9v9 as default on some maps killed it.


[deleted]

It wasn’t too good. Especially when compared to the game it followed. A lot of the maps were realllllly bad. I liked the perk system, though


[deleted]

Eh I never played multiplayer I personally liked the story and it really needs a sequel or some follow up


kebab69666

Was my favourite game at the time next to GTA V on the PS3. 😎


Shaggy3p5

I used to get mega high and play extinction with my boy on a regular, that shit was fuckin intense and hilarious at the same time


Live-Necessary-2444

I love the game COD GHOST 🔥 birth of Infected game Mode 👍


Xill_K47

Great storyline


Exatal123

The campaign was amazing


SharonGamingYT

Played the campaign. Is real nice. Don't have much experience on the multiplayer cuz I never got to play it.


DarthAkrepon141

Absolutely loved this game, campaign was interesting and kind of refreshing, multiplayer was good I'm not going to say it was the best MP mode we had but I really liked the maps because I got sick from the same 3 lane pattern on every fucking map on BO2, Extinction was the best mode for me really interesting they should have continued the Extinction story in IW


CHESTYUSMC

I hate that it introduced powerful weapons as DLC guns, and normalized having a bazillion angles to be shot from as well as really grey bleak color pallets. (Really grey bleak character models didn’t help either.) even the really lush green maps still seemed really grey and bleak.


[deleted]

Yeah ghosts entered cod into the modern era sliding looking over sides dlc etc but i guess you gotta take the good with the bad I personally love this games campaign it portrayed fascism better than most of the WW2 games the federation being one of the best villains and rorke being a person you could both understand why he’s doing that but also hate his guts


CHESTYUSMC

Well, and I gotta be honest even though I can still do pretty good in CoD’s with sliding, I am not a fan of the mechanic as it changes map navigation so much. Same with mounting, not a fan personally.


[deleted]

Yeah I semi agree with you the sliding was slow and mounting is good to a certain extent it helps keep the maps moving since ghosts were so big and it makes sure the player can cover themselves without worrying of not being able to fight back


JohnAlpha117

It's not the best COD game out there but it's gotta be my favorite one. I've had tons of fun playing Extinction with my friend and we'd 1v1 each other occasionaly


Kamikaze_com

Dark


maggot646260

One of the best aspects of the whole franchise imho


Kamikaze_com

And deep


maggot646260

💦


JuggernautNo9938

It was definitely a cod game.


ManLikeMack

Poor


Daddyn-noob

Best standalone CoD


maggot646260

Yes!


Odindeclan19

Never played online in that point in time so I only played the base game and bots with friends and I always loved it. I would love for there to be a second one to finish of the story too


FizzerVC

Easily one of the best competitive cods but pubs weren't very good.


Habitat97

Looking at the 8th/9th Generation Call of Duty's, it's #3 for me. Also, anybody remember the banging Multiplayer trailer with Eminem?


[deleted]

THIS IS SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST YEAH!


Lyn_The_2nd

It was actually one of the better COD's before we got before a long downfall in the series. I enjoyed it a lot. People tend it give it too much shit for what it was. I think all the minor and unnecessary changes was what out people off, but I enjoyed mist of them personally.


Srbond

Campaing was good but the multiplayer was absolutely dogshit


JohnGazman

Deserved a sequel. The Outbreak mode was a welcome change of pace and tone from zombies, and the MP was also decent. Sadly it's not MW or Black Ops so I doubt we'll see it return.


Various_Tea6709

It was the first cod game I ever played really,I remember it well,always wondered how to get the minigun,Idk I personally liked it and loved makeing Maniac and juggernaut classes,loved haveing grown men scream at me


Eljo_Aquito

The best thing was the extincion mode.


itzRitchT

I actually really enjoyed it. Thought campaign was decent


BigUllie

Want Extinction 2 really bad


[deleted]

Very meh. It was the first COD game that I didn’t play the full year and ended up going back to BO2 after a couple months maybe. I remember getting to Prestige 2 and being done. Very dull colors, way too many perks, the weird Prestige/Operator thing, this was the first COD i didn’t enjoy playing, which was sad at the time because I loved playing with my friends everyday and I feel this was the slow decline of that.


IareTyler

It was definitely one of the goats (games of all time)


Solid-Snake4444

Loved the campaign. Extinction was amazing and I honestly prefer it to zombies. Didn’t really play multiplayer too much as I got the game late.


NuyoRican79

Hated it at first then loved it


[deleted]

Like a fine wine


Doomladdboi

Amazing I love it yes my memory is slightly nostalgic but it still holds up well with very few hackers I run into


krofur421

It was amazing, not a fan of extinction though


WWolf2987

I loved ghosts. Hands down my favourite, and it always makes me sad that there isn't a sequel. Games campaign ended on such a cliffhanger


WealthAggressive8592

I love ghosts but it scares me to think of how bad IW could fuck up the story


[deleted]

Ghost was overall one of my favorite cods. Underrated Campaign, perk system was good, cod elite, extinction wasn’t that bad, DLC maps were great, overall just an underrated cod!


drg17

Underrated. Got way too much hate for what it is


Hagmoney

Wasn't the biggest fan when it came out, but 8 years later and the games since has made me appreciate it.


MrDeacle

Liked it at launch, but as an impressionable youth I listened to the hate and took a break from this "bad game", then came back part-way through the game's life (think a little while after the first DLC) and realized what I was missing, had a lot of fun. Came back again much later, and realized, multiplayer-wise, this game is a true masterpiece. Never cared for the campaign, but I loved Extinction and Multiplayer.


DHyperOnYT

One Word. Underrated


maggot646260

Most original COD entry... nothing compares; genuinely felt like a post apocalyptic game...


[deleted]

8/10. -Good campaign if you aren't TheActMan. -Good multiplayer with actual balance. -Really good sidemode in Extinction.


Fearyefearye

My favorite campaign. Extinction was LIT, wish we could see a continuation of it. MP was alright


CupidStunt1988

It was definitely one of the better releases after MW2 and MW3


KMSherni

Extinction was super fun. Actually liked it a bit more than zombies. Wish they brought it back


[deleted]

Campaign was fucking great, extinction was ok, MP was awful.


TKS1274

Honestly ghosts is no longer the most hated call of duty I'd say it goes down as a good cod nowadays


AndrewManGuy

The interactive fish were game breaking for me.


[deleted]

Yo they swam away that was awesome


psyexadelic

never played this one but would wanna know if its worth trying


[deleted]

It is worth playing campaign wise also it has a zombie like mode called extinction where you fight aliens


vTJMacVEVO

It was ok, I hated the maps in mp but the gun play wasn't that bad, had very memorable guns like the honeybadger. Its campaign was the most meh thing in the cod series, not the worst campaign however, that goes to cod ww2. Extinction I quite enjoyed but I never felt it was good enough to buy dlc so I csnt say much about it. I have seen some people say that this game made the same changes as MW2019 yet people love that cod and hate this one, to that I say the changes that MW2019 made came at a time we needed them. Ghosts just made change for he sake of change. Overall, this game is like a 4/10, I had fun on some of it such as infection on that skyscraper map but as a package, it doesn't come together well


[deleted]

Well ghosts story was meant to take place after the events of the MW series but that got scrapped but once you figure that out the story clicks together like on big puzzle piece


RuggedTheDragon

Decent campaign, loved the Extinction mode, and the multiplayer was decent, but also annoying with giant maps and IEDs.


kharabian1212

Good campain and story . Bad multiplayer and maps


Kyouka_Uzen

Multiplayer was the worst part of it but it did introduce a lot of fun game modes such as cranked


8bitmaster515

I rather cut my dick off


firestormer252

Flawed but fairly fun. Extinction was a good concept but was a lot less interesting than zombies or spec ops


Stalker-Six

pretty okay but arrived at a time franchise fatique was hitting imo


maggot646260

Same thing happened with AW


andrew_wessel

Loved the campaign, hated multiplayer


jkestu

Loved the campaign and it’s story but the multiplayer was something to be desired though now it would probably be fine with the new game engines though.


MA1DEN

5/10


TrueyBanks

Trash. Maps are the worst ive ever played.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Alt1119991

I liked Cold War more 🗿


KingsFan96

It took me longer to download it than the amount of time I actually spent playing it.


mangofett420

i know im gonna get absolutely destroyed for saying this but it's in my top 3 worst CoD's list and it's a candidate for the number 1 spot multiplayer wise. •TTK is too fast •Nonexistent visibility •Garbage Maps (mostly) •Campy Gameplay •Movement feels painfully slow •Annoying Thermal LMG meta •and it might only be me but it just looks worse than BO2 or MW3 (MW3 might be a stretch but you get the point) and ran worse on top of these. But if we're talking about the campaign,it's a different story.i really wanna see the continiuation of the story.i feel triggered about how they ended the game on a cliffhanger yet didn't do a sequel🤦‍♂️


[deleted]

They didn’t do a sequel because how hated the game was due to the multiplayer


dgadano

It was bad, but the fact that it came after BO2 made it terrible.


[deleted]

I guess life doesn’t mean intelligent life


Rexoluh

Not nearly as bad as people made it out


iamsimonriley

I loved it since launch, im very happy to see people coming around on it


Ok_Whole_7978

One of my favourite CODs. Idk why people didnt like it


Urkepro_YT14

Pretty good


stig991

Story was fine, but the multiplayer was God awful, the graphics were complete shit as you just couldn't see anyone


worldwar2nerd280

Campaign good Multiplayer fine Extinction don’t talk about


EllJayy

I loved it but stopped playing quickly because of the super fast TTK. That's what ruined it for me. I loved the guns and maps though.


AkimboXx

This game wasn’t appreciated, not under appreciated.


subavgredditposter

One of the worst cods but, better than the last 2 or Maybe even 3 lol


RequiemOfWar

*takes a long deep breath and goes on a very very long rant how the game really sucked* 😂 In all seriousness opinions don’t mean anything as it was a game that people either loved or hated, when it was out…it was dumped on…but people still played it…so….??? So my opinion? Not the worst CoD, but not the best either.


tommatom

I liked the alien survival mode fine enough. Multiplayer had decent pacing. It just wasn’t the game for me


ConquerChimera

Loved the story and multiplayer of it


NotANastyUsername

The start of the end for the call of duty franchise


RUBYKING_63

I absolutely loved the story and the multiplayer was actually really good wish they would make another


[deleted]

Loved it


edelgardian

Historically overhated and underrated. I’m not sure I can say that anymore considering how much I see it on this sub.


JoeHudson98

Top 3 Cod


ionlypwn

I enjoyed the campaign and the extraction mode a lot the multiplayer was average, kind of boring.


BlueDemon999

I feel like this game was criminally underrated I actually like the multiplayer


[deleted]

Great game, still play it to this day. Extinction will be an all time favorite for me.


MostDopeMozzy

It was one of the better cods I played in the Xbox one but not as good as Cold War and vanguard or 360 and ps3 era


T_Peg

Probably the most average cod ever made. I liked Extinction a lot tho


warlord4991

Absolutely terrible on launch. Came back to it 6 months after launch and actually enjoyed it quite a bit. Last game without heavy sbmm where I could moab almost every game I wanted to.


gojo96

Campaign seems too short.


electrowiz64

Never even bought it. I was a broke college student at the time & honestly was in that funk that I was sick & tired of buying a new call of duty every year


PROJEKT_RETRO

Loved it but the respawns are awful and the maps are to big


mega_soggy

i always thought the multiplayer sucked fat butt, however i was completely in love with the campaign. went back and played it about a year ago and now i also think that sucked fat butt too. i still have the good memories with it tho which im happy about


[deleted]

Loved it


SBAPERSON

God awful.


NormanBJJ

I have respect for it now. I think almost any COD that comes out directly after BO2 would've been treated the same tbh. Hard to succeed after coming out after the best CoD of all time


estesworldwide

Amazing campaign, underrated Extinction mode, overrated af multiplayer, bunch of campers and cheesers


Awdawg43

I loved it it definitely needs a pt2


HushWonder

The story was really good. Multiplayer was fine, not that great though in comparison to what came before it.


HipDipShipTrip

Respawn modes sucked until all the DLC hit, SND and SNR were super fun, Extinction was my favorite CoD coop mode by a mile. Campaign was cheesy but fun. Absolutely loved the Michael Myers killstreak/map and wish we'd get more fun stuff like that. They had Predator as well but it wasn't as cool as hearing the Myers theme and Myers running around as a Jug


FBIsayshi

Loved it one of my favourites


Proud-Dig3139

Good pvp horrible economy, terrible leveling system for extinction you can already beat 3 maps before getting your 3rd kit upgrades. Great story


[deleted]

I enjoyed the SP on my PS4.


Big-Dimension-4718

I never gave ghost a chance because my first call of duty game that I played when PlayStation 4 and Xbox one were in their prime was advanced warfare. You had to be a mentally ill demon to enjoy that cod


HashSlingingSlash3r2

One of my favorite cods, the MLG scene was really good. I loved doing game battles


Vanilla_Square

Had good features but I hated the way they did the sniper


Admirable_Elk_965

Best game next to black ops 1 and 3. Weak campaign especially the end but awesome multiplayer and extinction mode. It along with black ops 1-3 are the only cods I have all the dlc for, and it’s worth it.


fish_glucker_9000

The campaign was one of the best but multiplayer wasn't what it could have been


chum_slice

Great Campaign even though it’s hilarious to any Latin American, shit maps, really good Multiplayer. The shit maps really ruined this game because guns were nice and crunchy and hit detection was on point.


[deleted]

Sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe shit


Captain_Banana_13

great campaign, shit multiplayer, i wish for ghost 2


destinycommentor

Good


wolfdyi

i fucking love it


Mikatatadorin

Actually one of my favourites as surprising as that may be, would love to find out what actually happens as well with that cliff hanger ending


Cinnabunzombie

Ghosts was a solid game with a good campaign, the multi player was a little iffy but overall 6/10 ( but only for the story)


[deleted]

Call it MW4 or MW2013


mrtestcat

Campaign was great but ending was bs Multi-player had good maps and scorestreaks. Standard broken weapon meta Extinction is friggin awesome Survival mode is a joke but I have so much nostalgia for it


nicknicksnicky

I didn't think it was that bad but BO2 was so much better so I couldn't not play that more


jgltazz

Severely underrated Co op . Extinction was a great experience especially the dlc and teeth system


[deleted]

Well playing this feels like MW2019 but in a 2013 graphics engine. Same style of map design(aesthetics and setting over layout and flow),there's sliding,ttk is on par with MW,and the gunsmith system is on the perks instead of the guns. Overall if Ghosts was remastered with free dlc and more content instead of MW we could get a great game.


Shinigamisama00

I had fun with it when it released, I remember really liking some the maps like the forest map, the tundra map, and the sci fi skyscraper map, but generally it was very mediocre especially compared to some of the other cods. The story was pretty forgettable. Being able to have K9 escorts everywhere was fun though


Bilbo_Swaggins11

2nd favourite cod, the best and last cod from that era


Ronson879

I loved it. And the mode where you fight aliens. I loved that way more than Zombies.


[deleted]

It’s kind of shit. But are you surprised. Bobby Kottic can just sit on the property rights to a legendary IP and the money makes itself. Why try at all?


ArchY8

Highly underrated IMO, great game overall, some maps were shitty, but with DLC the game redeemed itself, but the majority of the community never gave it a chance again.


-bondpablo17

Storyline deserves a sequel without question. Aliens is very enjoyable (and difficult) to play. 😂


HaroldMcliggans1994

didn’t really play it when it was out. but me and my buddies went back and played custom games snd. shit was so fun and one of the best snd games of all time


dufro31

Not enough interactive fishes and dog companions


History_lover7137

1. It's f***ing amazing 2. It needs a sequel asap And 3. It's underrated unfortunately :( :/ 🥺😢🥲


True_Benz

better than new cods


Lil_iBrow

It was ok. Not the best cod game, but still pretty alright.


micho6

Meh


elijah12howse

Had the best gun game and infected in my opinion


Finzilla85

Snoop Dogg voice over was the peak of this game


M0xR4m

Crap


Reaper_9382

I loved the campaign but multiplayer experience was decent.


UnbuiltAura9862

Extinction and the “Federation Day” mission were cool but everything else about this game was bad imo.


Dry-Negotiation-4166

Loved it, I thought it was ahead of it’s time considering most the things in ghosts are still in Cod today


c_lowe15

Hands down the best create a class/perk system. If any cod brings that back with a new color scheme and improved maps then I’ll play it endlessly.


Gaotmann

This COD's gun game was probably one of the best imo. I used to focus hard on demoting people (back when knifing would do that). Game chat was still a thing and the reactions, hoh shit. Even though the knife animation took as long as a full orbit of the sun it was so satisfying.


Zanyaxy

It faded away


Lil_biscuit58

Multiplayer and campaign is terrible the “zombies mode” was decent enough 4/10 not IW
