How's Squads? AI still about the same as it was in BLOPS2? Can you play with two local players?
I mostly plan to play Squads and Extinction co-op.

True, the maps are larger, but is it just me or do the SMGs fire like lasers? (Especially the vector with a grip). For that reason, I've been doing fine even on big maps with SMGs.
Other observations:
They got rid of Demolition and Search and Destroy, my two favorites, WTF?
Most maps don't have discernible routs, or the routs peak out at other ones, meaning a million lines of site to guard against, and death from any angle. This adds to the utility of SMGs. Gotta be quick.
Spawn system still fucked. They said they fixed this in MW3, which became obviously false when I and a teammate spawned in full view 3 feet in front of an enemy (he saw us pop into view). Have spawned near enemies here, but nothing that bad yet.
Beat the story mode today and damn it was shit.
I've been playing since COD4 and my opinion on this game: Best Multiplayer experience out of all CODs.
Killstreaks are all ass now. There is rarely stuff in the sky. You might see a dog here and there, but Gunga dies pretty quickly.
UAV sucks now. You need to strategize with your team to coordinate the placement of multiple ones and get full effect.
Emphasis is clearly all gun on gun. No more claymores, bettys, stupid explosives, etc.
Guns are balanced great. People are heavy in favor of the triple burst and was banned in Gamebattles (as is myself), but it suffers at very far range and very close range.
Best Cod yet. Will juggle between this game and KILLZONE SHADOWFALL for the next few months.

Runs great online for meHow does this game run on the tripple?
any framerate drops?

Check out killcams. You didnt die that quick, it's just that the first 6 shots never registered on your end. (which is bullshit and unbalanced)Someone please tell me this is all in my head and you don't die faster in this? I can't even imagine hardcore mode.
As someone who never played IW Cods (MW2/3) the rate you die compared to BLOPS1/2 is now ruining it for me.

same shit as before, i didn't notice any change from Blops 2
idk about faster, you still need like 6-10 bullets in order to kill anybody without a headshot, and if you're a precise as fuck. It seems faster, but after playing 30 hours in ghosts and 200+ in blops, i don't notice any significant difference. It depends on guns too, some are faster and more powerful, rifles are 2 shots for kill and sniper rifles are 1. Seems like the same shit to me. But i noticed that in ghosts you can actually run away and hide from enemy fire. You couldn't do this in blops, maybe because of maps layout.Literally just played Blops 2 right after Ghosts, the change is massive. You die like three times faster than in Blops 2. We wouldn't be talking about fast kill times in such quantity if it was the same as ever.
And yeah, it's what ultimately ruins Ghosts for me too.

It seems faster because the netcode is shit.
I can not run away from enemy fire in ghost. Not once have I been able to. Even if I just need to turn a corner, never happens. Was able to do it regularly in blops2.But i noticed that in ghosts you can actually run away and hide from enemy fire. You couldn't do this in blops, maybe because of maps layout.
On PC, blops2 was kinda bad. Ghost is an order of magnitude worse.I thought Blops 2 was supposed to have pretty much the worst netcode out of the Call of Duty games.
Every game since BO1 has had the same netcode. BO2 actually works better than MW3 and Ghosts because Treyarch acknowledged the lag and nerfed every gun to give players a chance to react while they're being shot. BO2 is the best of the post-netcode switch games, if you ask me.I thought Blops 2 was supposed to have pretty much the worst netcode out of the Call of Duty games.

I've seen several for blops2. It's largely worse in ghost.Oh, alright. I remember seeing a video about some CoD's massive lag compensation, I thought I recalled it was Blops 2. Must have been MW3 then.
i was never able to do it in blops, but i do it in ghosts all the time. There's much more places to hide and corners to turn now and you don't stutter when somebody is shooting at you. It's pretty awesome, actually, saved my hide plenty of times.I can not run away from enemy fire in ghost. Not once have I been able to. Even if I just need to turn a corner, never happens.

Yeah, I read you right the first time. Sounds like we're playing wildly different games.i was never able to do it in blops, but i do it in ghosts all the time
For people that got ghosts through games on demand the 360, have you received free fall yet? I haven't gotten it yet though it says you will receive the map if you buy the game from GoD.
Stupid question; Should I install the Play disk??

What did you peeps think of the campaign?
A lot better than what I was expecting, although I feel like the writer could've used his academy talents elsewhere.
My favorite campaign since COD 4. The story and writing weren't great but I found every level was fun to play, with a lot of variety.What did you peeps think of the campaign?
