Ghosts In Depth - Hitboxes (Male vs. Female, Ghille Suit Testing)

[@MavicAVF]

1:03 wow driftor, such a nice guy. just lets the enemy pass!

[@TheJonbonesjones]

LOL Driftor you really didn't see the enemy right in front of you at 1:04 OMFG haha

[@FastJakeDeLuca]

HAHAHA 1:02 an enemy runs directly in front of him as they walk across the boat

[@LethalFlux]

1:02 - 1:05 .....i faced palmed so hard, my hand is now lodged into the back of my skull...

[@kilimanjalvaro]

i agree with you when i realized this i wanted to post it but u beat me to it.....fail

[@SpedZeppelin154]

Alvaro Montanez I saw this after I posted :( lol

[@emantheman0095]

Hes not even a ghost. He is federation. Get It?

[@shaquillewilson5104]

Your really stong then

[@devinmelling5156]

1:00 did he just...

[@Wumbalo]

Lol ik i was losing my mind!

[@frankyjose5815]

Wumbalo what happened?

[@devinmelling5156]

the guy that passed was an enemy

[@Wumbalo]

haha I'm sure its happened to all of us, there would be no way of knowing lol

[@truefas]

devin wall yea a guy ran next him

[@LiamBruny]

when an enemy runs right in front of your face at 1:01 ahah

[@SarcazdicKing]

he doesnt even shoot em lol.

[@RenagzyFX]

1:00 to 1:05 I slapped my self so hard to see if it was a dream

[@RenagzyFX]

YEAH! like how does he not notice

[@forrestk4748]

RenagzyFX ok phew! im not the only one

[@devalcars5873]

i taught for a second that im insane...

[@hk-xninja-2415]

+RenagzyFX i know right!!

[@hk-xninja-2415]

+RenagzyFX maybe he was looking at the dictionary!!! 0_0

[@MrTEN5E]

1:02 that was an enemy right in front of you XD

[@kf160k160]

HAHAHA. Maybe Drift0r been nice by not to shoot a player just spawned there. You know, the spawn is "fantastic".

[@xionabad6868]

1:03 dude did you not notice the dude who didn't notice you but ran past you. hahahaha

[@benschuster9792]

I sometimes look at old in depth episodes. You really were good at this

[@SpedZeppelin154]

Am I the only one who saw that enemy run blatantly past him in the beginning of the vid?

[@tomjenkins3483]

Yeah... At 1:05

[@SOTB69]

yes i just started playing ghosts and i even saw that

[@MrSKYFOUR]

I was just going to say that but still many wow such pro.

[@SOTB69]

Such pro, very idiot, much stupid, wow...

[@kevinswartz7444]

lol I know right. I actually was coming down to the comments to write the same thing!!!

[@T0rturephile]

You missed an enemy at 1:00. He walked right past you. He didn't even notice you either.

[@TreasonousBastard]

I'd say every model has some advantages and disadvantages: -Female: Very slightly skinnier (visually, not mechanically) but probably somewhat easier for people to get headshots on, especially if blonde and not wearing a hat/helmet, also because of general head size:body size ratio (psychology then it makes it easier to pick out and aim for). -Male with bulky gear: Easier to see in a general sense but more likely to have gear that breaks up their outline and acts as a sort of camo e.g. kneepads break up the shape of the leg; head appears smaller relative to body + gear and may make it psychologically more difficult to aim for. -Ghillie suit: Similar to above in that it blends into environments but makes the model bulkier (again just visually, not hitbox-wise as shown here) and possibly able to be seen around a corner when another wouldn't be. -"Civilian" clothes (Federation standard, PMC hats): Blend into urban environments pretty well especially when they aren't heavily textured, e.g. concrete walls. -Ghillie: Blends into natural environments and foliage. -Conventional camo/heavy gear: Blends into anything with lots of texture if you're lucky enough for colors to match, or that has streaks of shadow across it. So yeah I'd say the choices are balanced well and the decision to go with one hitbox model for everyone was a good one. Also the size difference between the female and male model is *very* negligible: If anyone has played Blacklight: Retribution *there's* an example of a female model being so much smaller (visually) that it's an advantage to use. Ghosts, not so much.

[@TotallyNotJazzieOfCourse]

You summed that up very well. Gears 3 had that issue as well. The female characters had much smaller hitboxes and so everyone used them for that reason. I like the idea of female models as long as they are balanced. For example if they have to have smaller hitboxes for modelling reasons then they should have slightly less health to compensate. Just an example and overall I think female characters are a good idea :3

[@R41N3LLGaming]

This has been my question for years. When a 2-shot kill weapon hits an enemy at both legs at the same time with one bullet, will the weapon will be a 1-shot kill weapon at this situation?

[@05khanha]

Nope, even if it goes through both legs it counts as one shot

[@scott4398]

A shot will only register a hit on an enemy once per enemy. Otherwise every gun would be a one shot kill by registering a whole lotta times with each shot as it passed through the enemy.

[@SpeedShadow54]

Never. Once the hitscan ("bullet") hits a hitbox, the hit registers and the "bullet" disappears.

[@05khanha]

***** That is not true CaperRee... It is coded so that the bullet only counts once. the bullet does not disappear. You can shoot one person and hit the person behind them with the same bullet.

[@DaxOrien]

RLprod The phenomenon known as "Collateral Damage"

[@jeffer-cake1656]

I used to be a Ghost like you, then some idiot shot air behind my knee...

[@acornhatcher16pro]

Lol

[@OciBPreDAtoR]

1:00 why...how? HOW CAN YOU MISS ThaT

[@stwida91]

Also guys, something to keep in mind... even though the hitboxes on the ghillie suit are the same as the normal character models, you are still VISUALLY larger. Aside from generally being easier to spot while moving, this is even more noticeable when you are being seen through thermal or tracker sights. You become obnoxiously massive in a ghillie suit through a thermal or tracker scope, and even though someone may be shooting at parts of your body that don't have hitboxes, they are still more likely to become aware of your presence.

[@757300AA]

At 1:04 an enemy walks right past you lmao xD

[@talhaabdul]

even the enemy doesnt notice him

[@BeminLP]

I noticed that guy too :D - it was funny...

[@forrestk4748]

Dakota yes quite silly

[@z_fluffy]

LOLWTF Drift0r you seeing things alright dude? 1:00

[@TheAgentkit]

1:00 how he didnt see that?

[@kieranschafer5180]

Lol and how come the other didnt notice either?

[@ltcolcapybara]

Next video is on hitboxes again? Sweet!

[@bigwilly8258]

1:50 Fluff, really Drift0r REALLY!

[@crackeranonymous678]

1:03 The enemy ran away right in front of him

[@_JaD_]

Thank you Driftor for making this, now whenever people complain at me for running a ghillie suit because of their "Messed up hitboxes" I can link them this video.

[@TheDutchMegaGamers]

1:00 A ENEMY WAS NEXT TO YOU? 0_o

[@Amzify]

yh his so blind

[@LHAnthony]

I've caught people from other teams sniping next to each other before. Happens more often with people who aren't as good at this game (like people my level), but still happens to everyone to some degree.Your brain doesn't process all the information it takes in consciously, so you often make assumptions that are typically reasonable. Such as: This guy has been running right next to me and has not been attacking me, thus he's on my team.

[@amandaklein3393]

My friend told me about your site. He watches it all the time. I suck at COD. I was taught on BO2 so you understand. But between my friend helping me and your videos its helped some! Thanks so much! :)

[@GoldenGiblets]

Hopefully you got my KZbin message but just in case you didn't, here's a repeat. Basicly I discovered that you can also Prone strafe with the Thermal Hybrid optic, Not just the Tracker Sight. Don't know if you are already aware of this but I just thought I should put it out there. Keep it up Drift0r, You're a big part of the community

[@TheTrueEvilSpud]

4:00, as quagmire said, that's the fourth hole, of course there's a hit marker there

[@patrickleslie292]

LOL

[@leopardsarescreaming]

1:02 . . . . Lol

[@lemonade55able]

LOL I missed that too!

[@Kodangada]

exactly how did he miss that?

[@leopardsarescreaming]

Random Guy on KZbin He most likely thought it was a teammate.. why would an enemy spawn there!

[@grantplunkett8410]

I've seen that happen in halo... fricken HALO people are different colors how do people do that?

[@Sann143Rules]

FINNALY hitbox testing! I have been waiting for that for ALMOST a month :D

[@Schlitzeye]

1:00 that was an enemy xD

[@ldzuniga2010]

lol i thought i was the only one XD

[@Noah-Lach]

1:03 | Drift0r & Sasser88 - two blindest CoD players ever?

[@braydenhaines5456]

Driftor, can you focus on the new mechanics that IW brought in?

[@xXMrPsychoJXx]

lol 1:00 cx enemy runs right in front of him. Gotta love them moments when the coffee stops working

[@xxfirestarX]

1:02 did u let the guy go??

[@nAsTeGaming]

I run my character with no gear because i feel that they are harder to see on maps. They blend in better

[@JadeSune]

Drift0r, you said I would be surprised with the results! :(

[@Plattenbruther]

1:02 Drif0r goes hand in hand with his opponent!

[@TheNightracer]

The other guy's like *pant* *pant* "Wait a minute..."

[@PSNadam]

i subscribe to AGOESIN already. hes pretty chillin

[@itsjayooo]

good to know this, me and my friend got angry at the hitboxes and prayed you'd make a video about it

[@giladandguy1]

1:00 lolololololol thats an enemy you both were absoulutly blind

[@MrHappy4311]

That enemy passed you at 1:05 and you didnt notice x) great shit. I had to watch that a 2nd time just to make sure that was an enemy

[@TheDeoge]

Great Video love the info I was not running backpacks because of this but you still can see them :P

[@mwrobins11]

Great video. Recently subscribed and have really enjoyed your in depth videos. Your recommendations are always on point and have helped me figure out which weapons to use in which maps. In regards to this video it would make sense to wear gear that protrudes past the hit boxes, like that giant helmet to get enemies to shoot at it and miss. The gilly suit, people probably just miss them more since their whole outfit isn't a hit box.

[@HerbalSergal]

"I was a great soldier...till I took a bullet to the air behind my knee. :< "

[@AHeroAlmost]

I love the way driftor gives shout outs to the people he got the information off! fair play!

[@XBLonTwitch]

1:04 lol guy runs right past you haha

[@LuisMorales-ic6oo]

LOL!!!

[@lukewuzhere1000]

It's really cool seeing someone else using the SVU. It's a 2 shot kill at nearly any range even with the silencer.

[@pijamagaming1197]

lol did he not see the bad guy at 1:00

[@iHDSniping]

its true that all hit boxes are the same size, but playing with a female, visually plays a trick on the enemy's mind weather they know it or not, they think its smaller, harder to hit, or faster.

[@Jerkasaur]

Drift0r i was hoping you could shed some light on how the squad point system works, because im not what im doing thats making me earn them

[@stmgamesftw]

He already did.

[@ARSP333]

stmgamesftw I looked through his channel he didn't

[@darkbringerx6615]

1. If you complete a challenge (Operation) you get 1 SP. 2.Every 3000xp you earn you get 1 SP. 3.If you complete multiple Operations in a week you get extra SPs equal to the number of Operations completed minus 1. P.S. I think the maximum amount of SPs that can be earned from the last method is 5. Hope this helped. :D

[@PanteraNile]

goutham gopal Congratulations on being an idiot.

[@lComedianl]

Crimsix said he used female and smallest load out because its sort of a mind game that the hit boxes are smaller which is kinda true, haha. Great vid

[@ZenNeonRazor]

It would be hard to take that into consideration because not many people play attention to hitbox it's just shoot in the body and that's it.

[@thepuncakian2024]

1:00 how did you not see that guy?

[@hunterdurst4571]

LOL I KNOW

[@yousifusama3326]

well, he is colourblind y'know

[@thepuncakian2024]

Yousif Usama maybe he thought he was a friendly? I don't know...

[@yousifusama3326]

The Puncakian thats the main reason he uses thermal, call of duty tends to use quite striking colours in the thermal sight which makes it easier for the likes of him to see ( driftor isnt completely colour blind, he knows all colours, but just not as easy

[@thepuncakian2024]

Yousif Usama well red and green are quite different colors... Idk a whole bunch about this stuff

[@lucusm895]

Hey Drift0r! Could you do an in depth over the engines that have run COD in the past and show the evolutionary tree of the tweaks and improvments made?

[@14K_Zo]

1.02 how did you miss that guy #facepalm

[@ReboyGTR]

I just ran with little gear because i think it looks pretty cool. Casual look while fighting a war! Epic! :D

[@LowResDev]

1:00

[@itsmoggintime]

Magic

[@rickgrimes7055]

Drift0r you are my favorite commentator not only are you good but my favorite part is the intullectuall episodes please do more I would like to know your thoughts on Mormons and other protosents especially Mormons thx keep up the good work

[@Jabrahamos711]

@1:05 How did you not see him?

[@stanleystefanowski3727]

How did he not see Drift0r?

[@MikeLaMike]

Me (M I K 3 ID) and my friend Resist Rage were in this game you recorded. Haven’t played with him in years. Miss those days!

[@iagoaspas4052]

at 1:02 he lets an enemy run straight past him!

[@Lightstream2]

MSBS and burst fire attachment got nerfed.. you should do a video about that

[@JardinesStoyanoff]

Drift0r : Does the Maniac have bigger hit boxes ?

[@RESULTINGEFFECT]

That was hilarious when that enemy walked right past you!

[@Crakrz]

OBJ... Likes cats!

[@CarlosValdosta]

i have argued with so many people about the hitboxes. Thanks for this video!

[@Naing2lin]

What the heck? An enemy player right in front of Drift0r at 1:04

[@sethswearingen1149]

Drift0r thanx for the in depth on male vs female. I dont know how many people asked for it by I know I did a couple days ago and here it is...

[@1234567890qw1000]

A lot of people are saying this year Cod is for campers and it's boring to watch and play cause of a lot of campers then last year's Cod Bo2 is that true? to me i think ghosts is better then bo2 with the kill streaks and guns but with the maps bo2 wins what do ya'll think?

[@basmodii1971]

The tac. Knife attachment for the pistols is OP. you should do an in depth on that.

[@reesercliff]

"An error occurred, please try again later."

[@ninhbac04]

These large hit boxes on the legs explain how i trip over ieds sooner than I get to it. I always thought the strip censor for the ied were large.

[@MostCedric]

Hitbox of dog or wolf, please.

[@deskpest97]

Haha lol both you and an enemy ran right into each other at 1:05 and didn't notice XD

[@matthewvesci2940]

1:03 did he not realize that was an enemy?

[@jfoification]

been waiting for this for a while, thanks drift

[@BunnyRaptor]

In general why can't all video games have the hitbox identical to the model?

[@spoder22]

Because it's stupid

[@seedubhuntx]

Too many invisible polygons

[@4-CQL]

It's not as simple as that. You try designing a game like that.

[@hurricanefalcon1287]

The work involved in making that happen is too much. But i wish the hitboxes were a bit more accurate, like maybe make different hitboxes for different model groups

[@gamemaster4356]

1:00 Drift0r totally missed a bad guy running right in front of him. LoL

[@apocalypsebeyond5415]

He ran right by an enemy!

[@ZvSniperz]

1:02 Nice one Dripper!

[@Bigkingmonster408]

1:03 you really did not notice him?

[@kanti1]

I think it's because we're so used to our Teammates spawning right next to us that when the Enemy does we might not notice, at least not instantly. I know I've had this happen to me. The spawning in Ghosts are about as awesome as the ones in the Face Off map Getaway sometimes.

[@thugdesolation]

One thing you might want to add Driftor, is that the Ghille suit makes a big difference for players that use the Trakcer Sight and/or the Thermal Sight. The Hit Boxes are the same, but the Ghille character model is a much larger target.

[@teamatfort444]

cod hit boxes are like jinx videos. not much effort

[@230903shorty]

I can honestly say I'd never considered differences between genders and equipment when it came to hitboxes. I always aim for centre mass anyway; if people were playing a female character with no equipment because they thought it gave an advantage, I have to say this: if your opponent was ever inaccurate enough that a theoretically smaller hitbox was going to be an advantage to you, you should've been able to make the kill on them in the first place. For the record, I play both genders, and the uniform I give them depends on their role in my Squad. I like the aesthetic of it. Awesome video again Drift0r, thanks mate.

[@gold3263301]

Every myth that comes up in CoD is never, ever tested by the people who claim them to be true. Then again, the actual audience that plays this game are rarely past the age of 13.

[@cesaresp101]

more like past 17

[@Herminipper]

I stopped playing when I was 14

[@gold3263301]

Herminipper I'm currently taking a break from CoD, and I'm actually just right at the supposed minimum age of 17. I started getting into CoD at 14, but I wasn't nearly as stupid as the people who come up with these myths.

[@ststiffler]

You are one of the best reviewers in youtube!

[@RasorShoTz]

1:02 lol trolololololo

[@stephenwags15]

You should do an in depth about if accessories slow down mobility or if any accessories speed up mobility

[@RoughRunnerAce98]

Lux FTW

[@Redeem_Honor]

Holy crap 1:01 that's an enemy in front of you Drift0r!

[@dukezap1]

Stop playing CoD on Xbone seriously. You have a superior 1080p PS4. How much is M$ paying you?

[@DoctorSoups]

Graphics don't matter.

[@Leap623]

MrGenius465 I don't mind if textures or shading aren't as impressive, but resolution is a pretty big deal to me. Flashy effects are just a distraction, while higher resolutions mean the difference between spotting and missing somebody across the map.

[@SonicVortex115]

L337COD4 This is exactly why I don't play Battlefield. Most of what you see is flash on there...

[@randere0204]

SonicVortex suns too damn bright

[@sammybli]

You can't even tell the difference between 720p and 1080p, unless you have a TV like 60+ inches. Otherwise there's no advantage to using 1080p, that argument is dumb

[@PurpleLeopard199]

Drift0r have u tried testing with other guns besides the M-tar? Maybe hit boxes are different depending on what gun your using or what class of gun.

[@JappyChan]

No, pro players and good players don't wear bulky gear because they don't want to be seen.

[@JappyChan]

lol what?

[@JappyChan]

There is supposed to be a comma after no lol

[@ZenNeonRazor]

It doesn't matter in the end it's about the best teamwork and better strategy.

[@ZenNeonRazor]

Justin Vasquez Who are you?

[@MavicAVF]

''they don't want to be seen'' seems legit

[@Red_AIert]

Drift0r, any chance you can do a video about the "human like" AI not ADS at range? I think playing against bots that emulate humans is a fantastic idea but it seems they skipped a step as I constantly get killed at range from the hip where a human would have to ADS. If you could do a video on this maybe Infinity Ward would see it and fix it which would mean a lot. Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@MURFGAMING1228]

I really hate the internet some days. You do massive amounts or research on these subject, and as far as I know, you never get call a, and I quote, "F**KING STUPID **S COD FANBOY" just for knowing what Kinetic Energy Bombardment is. (You know, ODIN uses it. Most people wouldn't understand it if I explained it.)

[@MURFGAMING1228]

Also, thank you for disproving my worries about my DEVGRU Heavy armor doesn't make my a larger target.

[@jlau317]

Hopefully the next episode will cover slugs, shotgun hipfire and other strange shotgun mechanics

[@cudencuden]

whats the point of boasting 720p or 4k if u r too lazy to outline the actual models as hitboxes...jeez!

[@cesaresp101]

that would make girls op because they're smaller

[@cudencuden]

Cesar Espinoza they can nurf it by giving them huge breasts

[@imheretocomment]

it's to make the game playable. Anything dealing with sending/receiving information lags. It makes it easier to hit people and so on. Blops2 had smaller hit boxes (which I prefer). This game I get kills not even aiming at the person.

[@Purpletrident]

imheretocomment That's what happened in BO2 too.

[@DonMezzo]

cudencuden And phat ass

[@VioletGiraffe]

Driftor, a patch was issued yesterday. Among changes: -MSBS Range reduced. -MSBS no longer 2 shot kill to arms and lower legs (rewards accuracy). -Fire rate on MSBS and Burst Fire Attachment reduced. Can you test how much of a difference there is? Cause they didn't give us numbers.

[@danielkazlo7054]

error occured
