Call of Duty: Ghosts - Story Explained

[@BranWolfYT]

I also have a bunch of COD Ghosts related videos releasing in the next two weeks!

[@ItsMe_-lo5zg]

What I predict: 1. Extinction. Story/gameplay 2. Private match (The Ai/modes) 3. How Logan and Rorke get brainwashed like Mason which could make for an insane story continuation. 4. Multiplayer (Unique perk system/ killstreak) Support is actually not that bad in this game.

[@LLeafie]

Do it i love tht game sm ❤

[@rosaria8384]

Honestly Ghosts' story deserves a proper conclusion. The cliffhanger needs a new story.

[@BranWolfYT]

I agree it was honestly a really fun campaign for me.

[@NamelessPassenger]

Yup, IW should drop MW cause SHG ruined the whole story. And they should concider doing Ghost 2.

[@CrazyGorilla99]

It really doesn’t this was the worst campaigns I’ve ever seen from cod

[@BranWolfYT]

@@CrazyGorilla99 damn 🥲

[@NamelessPassenger]

@@CrazyGorilla99 i was the worst when it launched but compare to recent release of the franchise, it was now one of the best experience. That spot now belong to mw23 campaign. Plus coldwar vs vanguard way worse than ghost. Mw19-22? Some good some bad, could be better…until SHG nailed the coffin.

[@jrodddtv2373]

I’ve always praised ghost as being one of the most underrated CODs of all time, the campaign was one of the biggest reasons why. But the multiplayer was also top tier and very under appreciated. AW / Ghost / BO2 were my childhood and will always be top tier games

[@nileriver4717]

Yeah, Ghosts was made to have 9v9 maps but was scrapped because of last gen consoles and so most people hate the giant maps. However even if the gameplay can sometimes feel slow, the dystopian grey feeling is always awesome

FR COR GHOSTS IS THE BEST CAMPAIGN IN NY OPINION ITS SO FUCKING GOOD and so creative and cool! The campaign is amazing the multiplayer is awesome and the extinction mode is sick as fuck... Way better than the same boring zombies that you infinitely fight

[@RakeHipster]

It has always been my head-canon that Keegan was Logan’s mentor, since they’re both quiet and professional, whilst Hesh got most of his influences from Merrick, both being tough and aggressive 😮

[@annadrift4]

The fact we've left Logan being presumably tortured in the jungle somewhere without a sequel is a crime.

[@Exoticyellowdragon]

Ngl this was actually my first COD Game and despite all the hate it got and my friends at that time telling me it was shit, i did genuinely enjoy the story of brotherhood and sacrifice. I lowkey got hyped when i learnt that hesh's actual name is actually David, the same as mine. Anyways, you enjoy what you enjoy. As you get older, don't pretend the things you enjoyed when you were a kid are no longer fun.

[@GMBoyYT]

Inkslasher made a video on his second channel about Ghosts 2 and Advanced Warfare 2 Happening which is very good but these Sequels are already going to stick to the Original Universe. Turns out that 10 Years of Suffering with no Sequels are finally over like RDR1 coming to PC and Steam after 14 years of suffering which makes PC Players Happy.

[@hadtoidbishop]

His attempt was an E for effort. Only issue was his mention of bringing back Simon Ghost (OG). Which make sense given the name of the title, it would have to cover the connection and ties towards the characters story. On top of that I wouldn't want to hear "Simon carried the series" I have a pitch attempt on story that plays out the root elements that made CoD memorable, and this one def. is heart wrenching it will definitely leave a mark on the series.

[@it_fr0sty]

When Hesh says checkmate and Merrick just says checkmate confirmed that was one of the coolest moments

[@ghostsstarwars1929]

Call of duty ghosts is one of my favourite games because of its story and military and world building so 10 out of 10 for me

[@intergalactic-loser]

this was the first cod game i sat down and played and despite what everyone has said and my own issues with it i still honestly love it, def one of my favourites. the era of experimental cod was very hated but i enjoy cod when it doesnt take itself too seriously. i just wish they had expanded more on the characters and relationships since the game is meant to be abt brotherhood and all that. the missions felt repetitive (aside from the hunted, i was gripping my controller so hard i couldve broken it) and they could've done a lot better w Rorke as well as the characterisation of the federation but smth doesnt need to be perfect to enjoy it. really hope theres a ghosts 2 id eat that up immediately

[@birdyboy3483]

I will settle for a TV adaptation of ghosts if it means getting a continuation of this story

[@CevicheGato]

Especially in how the federation was formed and why it turned into a union of Latin American states bent on competing against the USA and other powers. And why they’re going after the USA of all superpowers. Plus how ghosts become to be. If Simon ghost Riley had connections with the ghosts team themselves.

[@CevicheGato]

Maybe how the federation was founded. How the USA created their own worst enemy. That China is a military superpower that bailed out the near collapsing Chelonia and uses Chelonia as some neutral free trade zone between the USA and their allies. As well as China, Brazil, and Japan and their allies. Chelonia suffered a financial collapse

[@miguelfonseca2341]

​@@CevicheGato I just want to know how Venezuela was able to take over Brazil.

[@Watermeloneater89]

One detail I find the most intriguing was, when Rorke tried to persuade Logan to join Him and the Federation numerous times and even in the post-credit scene. We can see Rorke succeeded recruiting Logan by forcing and putting him into the exact, same torturous process he went through. When he was captured by the Federation. Great video by the way, I just hope you add more clips to add some context to your view.

[@kevinarreola2107]

Heed my words it’s gonna get the sequel it deserves one of these days

[@hallow2835]

I'd rather not get it at all than get it with the money hungry whacky and goofy state of COD we have right now. It's truly shameful the state of the games that come out everything is about grabbing as much money as they can, just imagine how badly they can butcher the game and it will just ruin the simplicity and greatness of ghosts.

[@ザマスブラック0]

@@hallow2835true, to be honest though I think the game should’ve been it’s own thing, no sequel, rorke still being alive kind of fucked up the story, it would’ve been a good conclusion with Rorke dead from that point

[@TO3TAGG3D]

One of my favorite cods the clan tournaments with the boys from school was the best we hit platinum or diamond which ever was higher it actually felt like being in a clan actually meant something plus everything about the game just felt amazing the way the guns handled, the game modes,, the maps, and extinction were all so good then they just dropped it for shit that doesn’t even compete to it

[@diegoramirez7075]

This game was one of the first CoD games that I bought for my consoles, I bought it for my PS3 in 2013 and I really enjoyed, at least in local multiplayer, and now this Christmas I bought it again for my Series, It’s definitely one of the most underrated titles in the franchise

[@Yoyomanred]

Ghosts was the first cod I got that wasn't black ops and I loved it. Honey badger is still one of my favs to this day.

[@Cryotech240]

Anyone else agree the plane scene is literally the vibe of bane from Batman dark knight rises when he was on a plane and escapes in the exact way as he did 😮

[@titotims]

Definitely one of my favorite cod games. I am looking forward to Ghosts 2, and we need to get the closure we need because, when I saw the cliffhanger, a big question mark left my mind for almost 10 years about what happened to Logan. Maybe, who knows, there will be a crossover between modern warfare and ghosts, and only time will tell. 🤞 Anyway, I really love your efforts on making these COD backstories, hermano! Cheers!

[@BranWolfYT]

[@egyptiandoge]

I think COD Ghost's campaigning failings came from a combination of issues. 1) The story wasn't great, it started out sounding cool about the fictional Special Forces team known as Ghost (good Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon didn't sue Activision). But then it slowly devolved into a manhunt with a bunch of filler missions. The manhunt aspect is what kills it for me, I thought we were going to be a guerrilla special forces unit surviving in a warzone, every operation we pull is conducted with shoestring budgets, and the gameplay, and missions are going to be designed around aspects of Guerrilla Warfare, indirectly affecting the enemies and sapping the morales, cohesion, and resources of a larger force. 2) The villain is also another let down for me and this one is a big deal. In previous COD, we had historical bad guys like the Nazis for WW2 settings, the Vietcong in the Vietnam War, or fictional ones like OpFor, Ultranationalists of Zakhaev and Makarov. The bad guys at least fit the settings and had their leaders given something of personal motivations that naturally formed. Namely, Zakhaev wanted to restore the Soviet Union, Makarov wanted the Russian Empire back, and more. In the case of Ghost, Rorke was just some traitor who got brainwashed. The concept sounds like something of a supporting villain you take down in the middle of the game. Not to mention how everything seems to play out in Rorke's favor, ranging from him surviving gunshot wounds, survived drowning, and able to kidnap one of the protagonists. That seems like a giant cop-out and the writers were probably trying too hard to make a sequel before their current one works well. The Federation is also not characterized in any way shape or form for the settings. Their leader hates America and that's it. I can't wrap my heads around what makes him hate America. Their rise to power is also contrived around just having Venezuelan oil and then somehow all of South America band together to invade the US. Even Cordis Die of Raul Menendez has a fleshed out rise to power. 3) The gameplay for the campaign is also another problem. I think it still falls back on those run-n-gun set pieces way too often. The game doesn't feel like it gives off the feeling of being a special forces unit that relies on stealth, guerrilla tactics and operations to achieve their successes. Ghost's campaign should have been designed like All Ghillie Up and One Shot One Kill from COD4 but with the added benefits of Black Ops 2 sandbox approach so that you play as a Ghost have more freedom to your actions and how to achieve a linear set of objectives. Overall: They should have made it like Red Dawn 1984. If they want to keep the invaded USA settings, they would need to cut the whole WMD plot and reshape the entire campaign to be about the Ghosts' struggle behind enemy lines. Their job is to be the stay-behind force, they sap the Federation's armies, morales, resources and capping off leaderships, command chains to disrupt the Federation's invasion plans for a specific sector of the frontline. Like say the overall plot is the Ghosts trying to stall or divert an entire Army Group of the Federation away from the frontline, their operations start to panic the Feds leadership. This leads to the changing command structure and villains. The villain started out as simple troops led by some colonels or generals at the rear, guarding occupied territories, rear-echelon duties like protecting logistics. But then the Ghosts start to degrade them so badly, the Feds began to deploy their own Special Forces to the area with a better commanding officer. That's when the campaign has you finding out if you have been infiltrated by a spy, fighting off enemies who are as capable of ambushing you, so on so forth. Your unit also began to lose members for every major victories you made. Maybe culminating into a do-or-die final showdown.

The campaign IS one of the best in COD, and I was devastated asl once I heard that it wasn’t going to be continued due to its sales and “Bad Reviews”???

It's so funny that I've serached deep in the web for cod Ghost. Then contacted youtubers and now everyone is talking about it after they said it was trash. Vanguard was just the straw that broke the camels back. Ghost has the most beautiful customization. In private match it allows you to creative hundreds of gameplay styles. NO ONE HAS TALKED ABOUT THAT. Ive discovered it while experimenting with the game which is why im still able to enjoy it. This basically gives me creative mode you just have to set it up. Extinction has its own completely different story with twists and turns which something cod needs for a refresh.
