I really wish the community had responded better to ghosts, as I love it and the ending was such a cliffhanger. It would have been awesome to see a second game.

I’m wondering how the hell a hostile force got on a space station. I mean they would have to get on the shuttle, which is presumably launched from a American site (given that it’s a crew change on a American only space station) and was able to not only smuggle guns onboard that shuttle, but then smuggle their nations suits on the shuttle as well, complete with tags and flags of the nation. Doing all this while on American soil and in a presumably insanely secure environment. Otherwise they launched from South America, which would mean that the US were either completely blind to a SHUTTLE launch and allowed that same shuttle to enter a similar orbit to its space station, and also allowed them TO DOCK WITH A MILITARY STATION.
The situation is such that both north and south America are world powers so they both have space programs. The Federation also has spies in the North who undoubtedly got onto the US shuttle
@@SantomPh like I said before. Spies isn’t enough and a separate space program wouldn’t work. Notably spies wouldn’t work because they would need to replace the ENTIRE crew change, and bring foreign equipment to a military launch site to a highly secure WMD. (I don’t think you can replace the entire crew of a nuclear missile launch silo even if you tried let alone replace them with troops that are wearing your uniforms) The separate space program wouldn’t work because if they tried approaching a obviously military station it would raise multiple red flags that were never raised in the game. (Nothing like a simple “this is Houston we have a federation ship closing with the station be advised”) or something similar. Overall it simply doesn’t make any sense.
Both sides are up their working together but the federation broke the truce hence why they were up there with guns and their own patches etc makes sense just turned on there allies
One of the thing that annoy me is why the federation doesn't use odin to destroy military base and washington dc and instead attacking city across the east coast and mexico border
Not a lot of people liked call of duty ghosts but for its time this game was dope. Not to mention the campaign always had such unique missions and I never really got bored playing it because nearly every mission was different from each other.
Chillabyte Obviously, it didn’t occur to them that the Federation would try to take control of it; they thought that the world would be too afraid of it to risk attacking.
@@recheat8264 at most, the destruction of the RCS unit could cause a uncontrolled spin which would make targeting impossible. The satellite would then take anywhere from a few months , to a few years to deorbit depending on the orbit it’s in. Just take a Look at what Happens IRL when a satellite is hit with a missile, it still stays in its previous orbit for the most part maybe changing in altitude by a kilometer but will still stay there for a long while.
@@Founder6087 lol Well at this point it's a fail production from the company lol. Even I picked up on that Haha! But my statement still stand corrected overall on our player surrounding his circumstances though.
No joke, the USAF has been flying the X-37 into space for years. The purpose of the mission is classified www.airspacemag.com/space/spaceplane-x-37-180957777/
@@lilosnitch3247 only idiot is you. Keeping things to yourself is only a mechanism to compensate that you need to feel Important and have a unreasonable fear of being like the masses
Just because it’s a “specialist” doesn’t mean it’s always just an E-4. NASA has payload specialist, mission specialist, and international mission specialist as astronaut ranks.
It's the Air Force, Kolin, and they don't have a Spec-4 (otherwise annotated as SPC) rank. That's the Army, and only the Army. It's Senior Airman (SrA) in the Plane Gang. The USAF, not NASA, is displayed on the side of the station, and the USAF is in charge of all our spiffy military Space Junk in the non-fictional world too. That includes our supposed "space force"
@@kolinmartz But also that is not their rank/title... their ranks are taken from actual service rank if they have one and are still inactive duty. Otherwise, their actual names are used (usually preceded by Dr., when formally addressed).
Think of that one game,movie or book you REALLY love ,then think of all the holes & inconsistencies in its general story that you willingly ignore because you know they add to the story by creating drama or character depth and voila! You have your answer
Whether they did or did not use blades and fists, hyperbole description do lend its purpose. It's told like that as if they were acting purely on willpower. Thus tools (weapons) became irrelevant. I got to say though, lots of stories of real life elite forces do have the same narrative scheme, and the extent of similar hyperbolic descriptions.
It would've, but more than half the fanbase complained about Multiplayer. That said, Ghosts 2 was cancelled and instead, we got Advanced Warfare. (And if I'm being honest, it feels like those kinds of players don't even play Campaign mode.)
What I like about the Federation Space Attack was the sense of realism, or how the spacesuits and weapons are similar and seem related to that of today's technology.
This really triggered me as an EU Citizen because I just realized that the insignia worn by the Federation was actually the emblem of the European Union XD
My favorite part of this has to be when at the end of the intro, Elias *STILL* comes back with the truck and gets out with Hesh and Logan after the entirety of Los Angeles or wherever that is got completely destroyed. A moment of pure bravery and courage.
@@hanyuzhu7276 no problem. Four letter word means a swear word or curse word like F$@k or Sh&t. To some people their fathers were so abusive or purposely absent so when they hear the word “father” they get angry or suspicious.
To hijack Odin you'd need a lot of things to work... But the biggest problem is that they would have to hijack the launch of the original expected shuttle without anyone noticing or informing the Odin crew. Which is pretty hard to believe to say the least.
Me on my deathbed, hearing that the space station has been hijacked and crewmates were killed(it reminds me of a fun astronaut game i played many decades ago)
My theory is that the federation destroyed the U.S. shuttle and replaced it with a look alike and fooled the U.S. scanners to make it look like it launched from the same location.
It's a good thing that astronauts now have mandatory weapons training before going to space... and that firing assault weapons in a space station is totally safe as well
“When the men ran dry of ammunition, they used their blades. When their blades ran dull, they used their hands” Favourite part imo, the pure fucking determination is impeccable.
Don’t care what you think, I loved this game when it came out. My friends and I were the first ones on infected looking for hiding spots. We won a lot of matches back in the day.
@@evanmccall9989 i dont think so,(i know its just a game) but even low caliber has enough force to move you significantly since there is no source of react forces keeps your body in place, if ammo has really low force/energy then it would be harmless to target, look at those small pressure thnigs that move whole station, low force but enough to rotate whole station
Rest in peace to those astronauts who had strict obedience to immediate orders and went above and beyond to do what they knew was right even in the face of death.
Well, at that point they were dead anyway, so while the complete lack of any hesitance maybe makes them seem a little unrealistically professional, at that point the only thing to do would be to destroy the weapon, both to save the innocent people on the surface & as a “fuck you” to the people who put you in a situation where your death is assured.
They didn't fail. The Federation occupied a lot of territory of Southern USA, including Texas and California. In the game the US has become weak because of ODIN and that's why they depend on Ghosts.
I give you reason:cliffhanger ending,doesn't have its own unique gameplay unlike modern warfare and black ops series,the mission is cool but lose its fun core compared to other call of duty series,its fictional setting has no distinction unlike black ops with its cold war era weponry,or advance warfare with it exoskeleton,overall ghost is like modern warfare but without unique gameplay and lack of story
Cod: Ghosts really feels like the forgotten COD. LIke ive never heard anyone say "i played alot of ghosts" cause everyone was still on Black Ops Mw2 etc.
Shooting guns in space is just a bad idea. Unless you've got an elaborate and computerized thruster system attached to your suit that detects when you pull the trigger and applies the appropriate thrust in the right direction to counteract the recoil, firing one bullet will send you flying away from your target.
If you think about it, the very existence of Odin is quite problematic regardless of who possesses it. A weapon with the power to indiscriminately annihilate cities with maximum collateral damage? Obviously... Good guys would not construct such a weapon in the first place. You can't honestly tell me it's just for deterrence if it's armed with enough payloads to kill 27million+ people in the blink of an eye.

Doing all this while on American soil and in a presumably insanely secure environment.
Otherwise they launched from South America, which would mean that the US were either completely blind to a SHUTTLE launch and allowed that same shuttle to enter a similar orbit to its space station, and also allowed them TO DOCK WITH A MILITARY STATION.
CoD logic. Anything is possible for the plot
The situation is such that both north and south America are world powers so they both have space programs. The Federation also has spies in the North who undoubtedly got onto the US shuttle
@@SantomPh like I said before. Spies isn’t enough and a separate space program wouldn’t work. Notably spies wouldn’t work because they would need to replace the ENTIRE crew change, and bring foreign equipment to a military launch site to a highly secure WMD. (I don’t think you can replace the entire crew of a nuclear missile launch silo even if you tried let alone replace them with troops that are wearing your uniforms)
The separate space program wouldn’t work because if they tried approaching a obviously military station it would raise multiple red flags that were never raised in the game. (Nothing like a simple “this is Houston we have a federation ship closing with the station be advised”) or something similar.
Overall it simply doesn’t make any sense.
Both sides are up their working together but the federation broke the truce hence why they were up there with guns and their own patches etc makes sense just turned on there allies
One of the thing that annoy me is why the federation doesn't use odin to destroy military base and washington dc and instead attacking city across the east coast and mexico border
Not a lot of people liked call of duty ghosts but for its time this game was dope. Not to mention the campaign always had such unique missions and I never really got bored playing it because nearly every mission was different from each other.
they'd have this wmd heavily guarded tho lmaoo if its that powerful a simple boarding party couldn't take control of it
Chillabyte Obviously, it didn’t occur to them that the Federation would try to take control of it; they thought that the world would be too afraid of it to risk attacking.
Having something in space is what I would call probably the safest place you can keep something...
But... they had a truce. The Federation wouldn't just go and BREAK a TRUCE?! Over something like a space weapon - c'mon? Guards? not really necessary.
Tessellation I didn’t make the damn game, I’m telling why the US forces didn’t provide adequate security for the weapon.
Yeah, thought that was silly.
This game's story had so much potential, but the multiplayer tore it apart like a telephone pole made of tungsten
Nice rod reference
Shoots the RCS of a satellite... immediately starts reentering
In space, guns are more effective as propulsion devices than well, guns.
It’s simple science and physics, angle could cause the orbit to un align and fall back down.
@@recheat8264 not that fast and that drastically
@@recheat8264 it would take A LOT of RCS thrusting in rather specific directions to do that
@@recheat8264 at most, the destruction of the RCS unit could cause a uncontrolled spin which would make targeting impossible. The satellite would then take anywhere from a few months , to a few years to deorbit depending on the orbit it’s in.
Just take a Look at what Happens IRL when a satellite is hit with a missile, it still stays in its previous orbit for the most part maybe changing in altitude by a kilometer but will still stay there for a long while.

Not under these circumstances though. Try to successfully run even 5 feet under an massive earthquake. Won't be that easy. I guarantee you that.

Apparently in the future u can become an astronaut with the rank of E-4.
Space Force!
Just because it’s a “specialist” doesn’t mean it’s always just an E-4. NASA has payload specialist, mission specialist, and international mission specialist as astronaut ranks.
It's the Air Force, Kolin, and they don't have a Spec-4 (otherwise annotated as SPC) rank. That's the Army, and only the Army. It's Senior Airman (SrA) in the Plane Gang. The USAF, not NASA, is displayed on the side of the station, and the USAF is in charge of all our spiffy military Space Junk in the non-fictional world too. That includes our supposed "space force"
@@kolinmartz But also that is not their rank/title... their ranks are taken from actual service rank if they have one and are still inactive duty. Otherwise, their actual names are used (usually preceded by Dr., when formally addressed).
@@kolinmartz SPC is the Army abbreviation for Specialist

Why should you have to revert to blades and fists when you can pick up the enemy's weapon.
Think of that one game,movie or book you REALLY love ,then think of all the holes & inconsistencies in its general story that you willingly ignore because you know they add to the story by creating drama or character depth and voila! You have your answer
Whether they did or did not use blades and fists, hyperbole description do lend its purpose. It's told like that as if they were acting purely on willpower. Thus tools (weapons) became irrelevant. I got to say though, lots of stories of real life elite forces do have the same narrative scheme, and the extent of similar hyperbolic descriptions.
This game was super underrated, new, original story that I thought was fresh and outside the box and it deserves a sequel
It would've, but more than half the fanbase complained about Multiplayer. That said, Ghosts 2 was cancelled and instead, we got Advanced Warfare. (And if I'm being honest, it feels like those kinds of players don't even play Campaign mode.)
what Baker and Mosley did was one of the most heroic sacrifices I've ever seen.

One of the best intros to a game I’ve ever seen call of duty ghosts campaign is my favorite of all time
8:17 Houston Operator: but payload 2 is still sequencing targeting locked San Francisco, Denver, Kansas City, Chicago, Washington DC
7:47 is seriously such a terrifying scenario
They weren't even given enough time to get to safety. :(
What I like about the Federation Space Attack was the sense of realism, or how the spacesuits and weapons are similar and seem related to that of today's technology.
How astronauts on the ISS feel with the russians right now
Pretty good.
Locating multiple targets
No one:
Characters: walking slowly.
You: not realising that there is no damn gravity in space, therefor they can’t move fast
This really triggered me as an EU Citizen because I just realized that the insignia worn by the Federation was actually the emblem of the European Union XD
I love how the federation was like
“We need a new flag”
“Just take the EU Flag and color it black”
The federation is literally just evil EU though, it makes sense
My favorite part of this has to be when at the end of the intro, Elias *STILL* comes back with the truck and gets out with Hesh and Logan after the entirety of Los Angeles or wherever that is got completely destroyed.
A moment of pure bravery and courage.
A true father would risk everything for his sons.
@@MrPatriot112 amen to that.
It's a shame "father" is considered a four letter word to some people. They really missed out.
@@xcaluhbration What's the four letter word? Sorry I'm not a native English speaker
@@hanyuzhu7276 no problem. Four letter word means a swear word or curse word like F$@k or Sh&t. To some people their fathers were so abusive or purposely absent so when they hear the word “father” they get angry or suspicious.
To hijack Odin you'd need a lot of things to work... But the biggest problem is that they would have to hijack the launch of the original expected shuttle without anyone noticing or informing the Odin crew.
Which is pretty hard to believe to say the least.
We all love the dog Riley...
Next thing you know we will be watching af guides on the new modern warfare.
Me on my deathbed, hearing that the space station has been hijacked and crewmates were killed(it reminds me of a fun astronaut game i played many decades ago)
Hesh looks like Makarov and now I can't trust him.
Lol
The amount of space debris is gonna fuck any future space missions
we already have that problem in 2021
Was it ever mentioned how Federation troops got on the shuttle in the first place?
i mean they kinda prolly just waltzed on there
Probably the "new crew" they were about to debrief
My theory is that the federation destroyed the U.S. shuttle and replaced it with a look alike and fooled the U.S. scanners to make it look like it launched from the same location.
The opening of the game is pretty good
This was my third call of duty
This was my 16 cod. Hideo dojima writing was good. Aw sucked cod bo3 sucked. Man why didnt ghost HAD CAPTAIN GAZ OR SOAP they hideo suck
Enough Mirror494 same
@@captainjohnprice5099 Ghost and MW is a different universe
assuming you mean the last three CoDs, at least you got to play BO2
This was my first
I’ll give it to the game, it had some great voice actors and cut scenes.
It's a good thing that astronauts now have mandatory weapons training before going to space... and that firing assault weapons in a space station is totally safe as well
“When the men ran dry of ammunition, they used their blades. When their blades ran dull, they used their hands”
Favourite part imo, the pure fucking determination is impeccable.
Don’t care what you think, I loved this game when it came out. My friends and I were the first ones on infected looking for hiding spots. We won a lot of matches back in the day.
I assume these engineers follow the “put the most vulnerable part of the machine in the most obvious area rule”
5:06 yeah you’re not gonna make it the end of this mission, are ya?
8:47
Mosley: We'll dump it to the ocean
No man's land mission: Yeah, but in San Diego
When the astronauts start entering earth atmosphere again it looks pretty dope ngl
Ghosts had some of the coolest cutscenes. They constantly use these animations that are so weird and cool
This is a real life possibility if similar space weapons ever became a thing.
technically already a thing, look up rods from gods
Damn, Mosley was best girl :'(
man the memories i'm getting just watching this

The best campaign hands down in this franchise ....
Rules of the Call of Duty fandom:
Rule 1: never EVER say your favorite game
That’s it
This is one of the most depressing campaigns in video games.
This mission is really impressive. The sound muffled or muted entirely, and the effects of the explosions on earth works so well.
8:30 how did she got a spare magzine in space for reloading?
Nevermind the WHOLE shooting bullets in zero gravity thing... pinwheel, anyone?
what spore characters see when you use the lazer tool on their cities
God that must feel awful for astronauts basically going on a suicide mission just to bring down a space satellite.

arent they whole bodies recoil when shoot in space?
@@Hunkie904 bo? cieciuniu
Low caliber ammo, you just need to puncture the suit and their done
Thats a videogame
It could be argued that the muzzle device on the MTAR was designed to act as a counter-force to the recoil
@@evanmccall9989 i dont think so,(i know its just a game) but even low caliber has enough force to move you significantly since there is no source of react forces keeps your body in place, if ammo has really low force/energy then it would be harmless to target, look at those small pressure thnigs that move whole station, low force but enough to rotate whole station
Rest in peace to those astronauts who had strict obedience to immediate orders and went above and beyond to do what they knew was right even in the face of death.
Well, at that point they were dead anyway, so while the complete lack of any hesitance maybe makes them seem a little unrealistically professional, at that point the only thing to do would be to destroy the weapon, both to save the innocent people on the surface & as a “fuck you” to the people who put you in a situation where your death is assured.
I loved to play the multiplayer with a friend back in the day. It was amazing
Can we just agree this game was different but still really good
Kinda felt bad for the astronauts
They sacrificed themselves to stop a global attack.
TheFilmMixer101 not a global attack, just an attack to stop the egemony of the United States
@@eliotmashwitz8270 Yeah
If they failed
Then ODIN will target more major cities
And the Federarion will take down the USA with ease
They didn't fail. The Federation occupied a lot of territory of Southern USA, including Texas and California. In the game the US has become weak because of ODIN and that's why they depend on Ghosts.
Feral Snowflake Well, more it’s economy and political stability.

I don't think they would have felt much pain. They would have most likely rendered unconscious cus of the g-force before getting burned.
Not gonna lie, that title card gives me so many goosebumps.
What the hell was so bad about this game? I absolutely loved it🤷🏼♂️
Don't worry about it. Caring about people's opinions of a video game is pointless. If you enjoy it, that's all that matters.
I loved the campaign I wish for a second ghosts
I give you reason:cliffhanger ending,doesn't have its own unique gameplay unlike modern warfare and black ops series,the mission is cool but lose its fun core compared to other call of duty series,its fictional setting has no distinction unlike black ops with its cold war era weponry,or advance warfare with it exoskeleton,overall ghost is like modern warfare but without unique gameplay and lack of story
@@michaeledmunds7266 words of wisdom right there man :)
I think the multiplayer was bad and broken, and most of COD players doesn't care about campaign
Cod: Ghosts really feels like the forgotten COD. LIke ive never heard anyone say "i played alot of ghosts" cause everyone was still on Black Ops Mw2 etc.
At the last scene, it is a combine of Ghost helping Roach and Nikolai helping soap
modern warfare yes
Shooting guns in space is just a bad idea. Unless you've got an elaborate and computerized thruster system attached to your suit that detects when you pull the trigger and applies the appropriate thrust in the right direction to counteract the recoil, firing one bullet will send you flying away from your target.
If you think about it, the very existence of Odin is quite problematic regardless of who possesses it.
A weapon with the power to indiscriminately annihilate cities with maximum collateral damage?
Obviously... Good guys would not construct such a weapon in the first place. You can't honestly tell me it's just for deterrence if it's armed with enough payloads to kill 27million+ people in the blink of an eye.
You bring back the old days I loved cod back then
One day there will be battles in space
