    does anyone have anything they'd really like to know about ghosts? i'm speaking with the infinity ward guys next week and i might have time to throw in a few questions at the end if anyone's got anything they simply must know pre-launch?

    Ask is there any chance they'd get rid of the ridiculous remote control dogs

    Ask are they ever going to let this series die?

    there is a lack of information on what difference there is between current gen ghosts and next gen ghosts, just graphics? better engine?

    Bit late for that at this stage I'd say sadly

    oh one more...is ranking/prestiging the same or different?

    i just cant motivate myself to prestige again after around the 4th-5th time anymore..no real rewards in it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,433 ✭✭✭wandatowell


    All the talk of dogs and the stupid "we have to be bigger" impression I get from all the FPS game developers is really tiring me. I really miss the simplicity of COD:MW had.
    Now I do love the added game modes, it freshens things up. but god dammit why cant they just go back to what Infinity Ward done that made MW so good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭MarkY91


    cant seem to proerder cod hardened yet on ps4 in neither xtravision or some websites..do i got to wait until novembeR?

    This a million times, you can have all the space lasers and remote control dogs and explodey things you want, as a pure multiplayer experience, COD4 is still a shining example of how to do it properly. Flawed in it's own right, but the series just went downhill from there.

    i think it went downhill from waw
    i loved waw was definitly a good ww2 game

    mw2 was pretty good also, but had to much stuff in it
    everything after that has been ****e
    although i have been enjoying black ops 2 lately

    MW and WAW had some of the best maps I've ever played. Some of them were fantastic for TDM.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭MarkY91


    i personally think black ops 2 was the best cod. i allways look forward to treyarch cods..infinity ward cods bar mw1 were all ****e. hopefully them moving away from the MW will bring new life to the game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭MarkY91


    new mode in cod like zombies..but with aliens. sounds fun :D




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭2Mad2BeMad


    I didnt watch the video
    but if its real
    thats probably because activision cant make a zombies mode, think treyarch own that
    i have no doubt it will be the same
    still sounds like good craic :D only reason i got black ops 2 was for the zombies, which i have to say disappointed me this year :/ much preferred WaW zombies, black ops 1 with the big theatre was pretty cool as well :)

    im not a fan of zombies anymore. it was once fun but got boring. i love black ops cods...ill miss it :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    Yes, zombies died a death in BLOPS1.

    Kino was good but the levels quickly descended into hollow gimmicks...call of the dead, the moon. Daft.

    Mark Ward from IW has said something that might get me back into COD.
    " Dedicated servers will be used on current gen, next gen and PC with Ghosts. And, in order to make sure that people have the best possible experience regardless of platform, location or connection, Ghosts will be using a hybrid system of dedicated servers and listen servers. So no matter where you are the game will always be trying to give you the best online performance possible".
    About time.

    Hate to be the breaker of bad news but a bad connection on dedicated servers is a bad connection on user hosted servers. You'll still have lag.

    Indeed, in fact it might see you booted from games instead.

    50GB.....seriously 50GB!!!!


    This is either the greatest looking video game ever or the worst attempt at putting off pirates ever.

    Are the people at infinity ward that mad !!! It will probably run on ultra setting on a HD 5870 !! 50 gbs of hard drive space BF 4 needs less and 6gb of Ram what game on Pc has ever needed that amount . Yet they say a Dual Core Cpu will run the game .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 661 ✭✭✭derm0j073


    A little off topic but 50 gbs for this and Killzone will eat up 20% of my PS4's HD week one of purchase .

    So after playing Ghosts and BF4 at Eurogamer, for the first time ever, I'm defecting to the BF4 camp! I think I enjoyed the pacing a bit more. Ghosts was also alot of fun though, but I think I need a change of pace :)

    Will probably end up buying both eventually though :D
