Black Ops - Ghost perk

[Geekosaurus]

But campers exist, and they appear at corners where it's hard to actually kill them first. Blackbird is a killstreak, which requires 8 kills if I'm not mistaken. It's annoyingly hard to get to newer players of the game(ie. me), and if I'm not mistaken most aircraft can be taken down with a rocket from the M72 LAW. I'm sorry, but Ghost is completely broken. It's not as annoying as Second Chance, but it is in need of a downgrade. From what I can tell, Call of Duty wasn't mean to be a run-and-gun FPS, but with Ghost you can get caught off guard at any time and killed in a second.

Just as a heads up, you can't shoot down a Blackbird. It's almost in outer-space.

Indeed, campers do exist but once they kill you the first time you know where they are and what line of sight they're looking down. Once you know that you can avoid that area until they are killed, and if they are hiding in a corner all it takes is a few flash/stun grenades and maybe a frag or two to get them out of their hiding spot. I dunno, I think it's a lot easier to avoid being killed by campers in black ops and as long as you check your corners and remember where you get killed from. As long as you are careful you won't be taken by surprise too often. Also, I know everyone and their dog has said this already but you can't shoot down the blackbird. I know 8 kills seems like a lot but if you run hardline it's only 7 and if you use the motion sensor you can keep yourself alive a lot longer than you realize as not a lot of people run hacker pro.

Can you put a link to a vid with ghost hate? I'd be interested in hearing ^^

I've always used cold blooded/ghost and not once has anyone said anything about it...The most game breaking perk in recent cods is Dead silence/ninja (by a mile)...Where did I put my flame shield...

I ended up unsubscribing this guy after this video.

Thanks, that guy sounds like a plonker..."Nothing can counter ghost." How about common sense and being on your toes...Argh the more I listen the more I dislike him...

ditto and also it is easy to counter ghost because people watch kill cams and then they know where you are i use ghost on all my classes 1 because it hids me from the most annoying thing in this game spy planes which i promptly shoot down with my m72 LAW and i have to say is how often is it you have both spy plane and another killstreak on at the same time? like never unless you wait for it. i dont camp much unless i am in a good spot with a view whith does not last long because people watch KILL CAMS and he neglected that fact.

"I still think that at most, Second Chance should be something available when someone has a death streak, not a perk."[/quote]

they kinda countered that by haveing it to revive you and only if you got pro which i have to say is rare as you winning the lottery. but yes i agree because i dont want to pay 3000 more points for pro just so i have to wait longer to die and continue.

I think having Ghost is an legitimate trade-off. You only have so much ammunition and without scavenger to resupply you can quickly run out of ammo. Plus, not to mention flak-jacket can be a complete life-saver.

Frankly i do not get that much problem from campers, as i know the maps i KNOW where they are going to camp, a quick peek or a grenade lob takes care of the job.

ALSO: fuck everyone who uses last stand. WHY THE FUCK SHOULD I HAVE TO KILL YOU TWICE???

I've been getting annoyed with ghost recently since most of my matches these days have at least half the team using it, and when that happens i tend to get shot in the back right after a spawn A LOT>

I call out Jammer/Cold Blooded users all day. As I said previously, the people that run this all the time are generally bad players who can't win a 1v1 situation, so they opt to flank or camp corners instead. Cowardly, in my opinion. Then again, I'm a big proponent of having a sense of honor in multiplayer gaming. Anything that might be considered "cheap" is against my personal code of conduct.

As for Dead Silence and Ninja... yea, they're the best perks in every Call of Duty game by a landslide. Hearing footsteps is such a HUGE advantage that I literally laugh every time I see someone not using it.

You're one of those people that make COD players seem like total jackasses. In war there's no rules so why get mad when your comfort zone get blown to shit by a explosives.

You sound like them ejitts in the Napoleonic War that complained about people that actually took cover when they were being shot at...anyway Ghost is essential in Core but I always play Hardcore CTF so it's a choice between Ghost or Hardline really...tough choices
