Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) | comment |
The tenth game in the popular FPS series Call of Duty, developed by Infinity Ward, Ghosts was intended to be the start of an entirely new subseries for the franchise by acclaimed writer/director Stephen Gaghan. However, his talent and Hollywood success did not extend to the first-person shooter realm, and the Ghosts brand and storyline was retired after this one installment due to lackluster sales and criticism of its plot and villains.Ten years in the aftermath of an attack caused by turning a United States satellite weapon against the nation, much of the country lays in ruins. The severe loss of industry, infrastructure, and capital to rebuild has taken the government from one of the most elite nations in the world to third-world status. This results in a weakened military and exposure to invasion, which comes in the form of a collective of South American governments called "The Federation" (the ones who were also responsible for bringing this on the U.S. in the first place). After ten years of occupation by The Federation, what remains of the U.S. special forces are brought together to become the "Ghosts", whose mission is to use whatever means necessary to defend the tattered remains of the U.S. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: Elias, when talking about the mission to assassinate Almagro, claims that Rorke was totally obsessed with killing him. When we play the actual level, the only implication that he's obsessed is when he shoots down Merrick's suggestion to abandon the mission when the town gets flooded. Considering Merrick's reasoning is flimsy at best (if anything, the flood would make things easier due to the Federation being in disarray), Rorke comes off as fairly rational. Neither Ajax or Elias say a word in support of Merrick, either. | |

Heavily Armored Mook: Minigun-wielding Juggernauts return in multiplayer as a killstreak reward, now with a new melee-focused variant called the Maniac who's faster than normal and armed with a knife. Both variants have an effective health of 1250 compared to 100 for a normal playernote actually 92% damage resistance, but this translate to effectively having 1250 health, but don't regenerate health. Michael Myers is a reskinned Maniac with slightly different timing and animation, while the Predator has identical stats but unique weapons and gameplay. | |

Diabolus ex Machina: The game ends with Hesh and Logan, badly injured, finally able to kill Rorke, and savoring the US's victory over the Federation, namely turning their own LOKI satellite on them. Logan turns for a breath, only to see Rorke himself, brutally beating them up and taking away Logan to turn him into a loyal Federation Agent. Hesh's pleading screams don't help the matter. | |

Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Oooh, boy. When your game starts off with a government Kill Sat being used to destroy the entire southern United States, killing millions and destroying all infrastructure in a matter of seconds, you can guess that you're probably in for this. What's more, it's implied that the world is even more crapsack then we see, what with the entire Middle East being wiped off the map by some war and the ensuing collapse of major superpowers caused by the immense loss of oil. | |

Fallen States of America | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_2206fd8c | comment |
Fallen States of America: The United States is no longer a superpower, just another country in the world. Its economy is in tatters, its towns and cities in ruins, and its military has deteriorated to the point where any remaining special forces are insurgents. Invaded States of America: The actual scenario of this game is not China Takes Over the World nor North Korea occupying America, but rather an alliance of South American states where Venezuela is the leader. Interestingly, the US's military strength is quite remarkable for a devastated country, as late in the game they still have the ability to launch a full-out assault on Federation facilities in the Atacama Desert while also sending astronaut commandos into space to take over the Fed's own Kill Sat. Although the generals do tell you unhelpfully that they are putting in most of their remaining hardware (and their last aircraft carrier) into this attack, so don't muck it up. It seems like most of the United States is still intact, while the Federation occupies California, Arizona, New Mexico, and parts of Texas. It can probably be assumed that the remainder of the United States has gone into "Total War" mode like they did in World War II: where the entire nation's resources have been mobilized for the war effort and all non-essential activities have been curtailed. The game explains that the Odin crew managed to scuttle the satellite before it could target additional US cities. However, they were too late to save the American Southwest. The United States as a whole is still intact, but its power has been vastly reduced. | |

Aborted Arc | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: This game was meant to kickstart the spiritual successor series of the Modern Warfare trilogy in tone and gameplay. However, the game ended up selling way less than Call of Duty: Black Ops II and its reception was mixed at best, with its online player population being only the half that of Black Ops II, prompting Infinity Ward's next game, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, to lean more heavily on science fiction. Consequently, players of this game were left with an incomplete story and Sudden Downer Ending with no follow up. | |

Kill Sat | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_26f41623 | comment |
Kill Sat: Plays a major role in the story. The United States has the Orbital Defense Initiative (ODIN for short), which is taken over by Federation astronauts at the start of the game and used to destroy Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, Houston, and Miami (causing an estimated 27 million casualties). The station is scuttled by surviving American astronauts before it can destroy any more cities. Later in the game it's found that the Federation are building their own killsat called LOKI. During the final mission LOKI is successfully hijacked by a team of American astronauts, who use the rods within to deal heavy damage to Federation land and sea forces. Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better: Unlike the usual kind of Kill Sat found in fiction, this one didn't shoot laser beams. | |

Alternate Continuity | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_450c5a85 | comment |
Alternate Continuity: Ghosts is explicitly independent from both of the previous non-historical Call of Duty timelines, Modern Warfare and Black Ops. With its Stillborn Franchise status, it is pretty much a fully independent game with no storyline connection to any other Call of Duty games. | |

Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_47fea76b | comment |
Butt-Monkey / Trauma Conga Line: Ghosts is pretty much just one entire middle finger to Logan. The game starts off with him getting viciously thrown around by Kill Sat blasts that completely demolish his entire hometown and probably kills all of his friends, all at age 16. Then, a decade later after becoming a Ghost, he falls out of a plane and plummets into an enemy-swarmed jungle all alone, and escapes by flinging himself off a waterfall, then he's shot in the stomach at point blank range (never gets any medical treatment for that, by the way) and is then is forced to shoot his father several times in the chest by Rorke before watching him get his brains blown out right before his eyes. Then Hesh and Logan go on a revenge mission where Logan gets his ass brutally handed to him by Rorke, then the train they're on gets bombed and they're sent to the bottom of the ocean, where Logan is further beaten by Rorke and the two brothers just barely save themselves from drowning. So after finally killing the man who killed their dad, it turns out that Rorke is still alive, who promptly boots the recovering-from-nearly-drowning-after-a-train-crash Logan in the face, completely shatters his arm, and drags him away from Hesh where he's then taken to the Amazon to be tortured in a hole for months until his mind is completely shattered and he's brainwashed into callously killing the Ghosts, his only friends and his own brother. Jesus Christ. | |

Artistic License – Paleontology: The cryptids are described as having populated Earth approximately 300 million years ago. The problem is that 300 mya was the late Carboniferous period, and recognizable life was well established by that point. The description given of the Earth in cryptid times lines up more closely with parts of the Precambrian (such as the Paleoarchean or maybe the Eoarchean eras). | |

Day of the Jackboot | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_6a582e34 | comment |
Day of the Jackboot: Unlike most examples of Invaded States of America, an alliance of South American states establishing themselves as a global superpower and invading the United States is a more realistic scenario than, say, China or North Korea.note China's relationship with the United States is more of an Enemy Mine relationship where they are so economically dependent on each other that it is implausible for China to militarily invade the United States yet. And North Korea is laughingly poor economically and militarily; even China, North Korean's ally, is turning against them for their nuclear weapons program. And this doesn't even factor in the logistical nightmare of transporting an invasion force large enough to threaten the US across the Pacific Ocean. This is because, according to Word of God, South America is known to have a rich variety of natural resources, and this isn't far from Truth in Television in countries such as Brazil.note Venezuela, a country known to politically hate the United States thanks to Hugo Chavez and his continuing popularity post-mortem, and a long-standing history of bad blood between most of South America and old Cold War mentality propping up dictatorships, would have been close to Brazil with their petroleum reserves, but poor government management prevented this country from being so. | |

Meaningful Name | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Perhaps unintentional; "HESH" was the designation for the "High-Explosive Squash Head" cannon round, a projectile which flattened itself on the outside hull of a tank before exploding, causing the inner surface to peel off as shrapnel and killing the crew inside. Logan's brother is so badass he is capable of killing tanks. The Shuttle that brings the Federation forces to ODIN at the start of the game is called Daedalus which is possibly in reference to the ODIN satellite bringing misfortune onto its creator, much like Daedalus' invention did to him. And the squad that goes for LOKI is named Icarus. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: During the defense of Santa Monica, Logan takes control of drone A-10 attack aircraft at several points in order to keep attacking Federation soldiers at bay. However, on one run, the drone he's controlling gets shot down and it crashes into drone control, effectively causing Santa Monica's defenses to collapse. At the end of the game, Hesh decides to go after Rorke alone instead of waiting for the rest of the Ghosts to catch up to them. Not only does this not accomplish anything, but it also gets Logan captured by Rorke and set up to be brainwashed. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Riley the dog is seen alive and well onboard the U.S.S. Liberator in the mission "All or Nothing", however near the end of the mission the main characters are forced to evacuate the now sinking ship via helicopter with Riley nowhere to be seen. He neither appears nor is mentioned in any of the subsequent missions. The prologue mentions that fifteen Ghosts survived against the Arab Coalition. However, there are only 9 Ghosts in the game, excluding Hesh and Logan as they joined later (Rorke, Elias, Keegan, Merrick, Ajax, Kick, Neptune, Greene, Poe; the latter three are only seen in intel files or as a Voice with an Internet Connection). The other six men/women are never referenced again. | |

Denser and Wackier: The DLC packs for Ghosts have added a number of rather whimsical special characters to the multiplayer modes, including Michael Myers, The Predator, ghost pirates, and a revolver dual-wielding Mexican mariachi with the ability to turn killed enemies into clones of himself. As Infinity Ward's previous entries in the series have generally stuck to a "hard realism" edge, this seems to be them trying to show that, yes, they actually do have a sense of humor too. | |

The prologue mentions that fifteen Ghosts survived against the Arab Coalition. However, there are only 9 Ghosts in the game, excluding Hesh and Logan as they joined later (Rorke, Elias, Keegan, Merrick, Ajax, Kick, Neptune, Greene, Poe; the latter three are only seen in intel files or as a Voice with an Internet Connection). The other six men/women are never referenced again. | |

Homage | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_a1a1491e | comment |
Homage: A few players have noted that Ghosts has several similarities to Star Wars. Both feature good guys fighting for freedom against an explicitly evil empire (the Federation), Rorke is a former hero has fallen to the dark side similar to Darth Vader, and Elias Walker fills the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi. The game even has its own Death Star subsitutes in the form of kinetic weapons satellites. Another notable one, yet still quite easy to miss, is the mission were Logan and Keegan must launch a portable missile/torpedo while underwater in order to destroy an advanced warship. The weakspot? A thermal exhaust port. Not to mention that most Federation soldiers wear masks or face-concealing helmets, making them quite Stormtrooper-ish. Hell, one mission even has the Ghosts infiltrating a Federation facility by dressing up as Fed soldiers, similar to Luke and Han disguising themselves as Stormtroopers in A New Hope. Plus, it's apparent from the ending that Rorke is intent on turning Logan into somebody just like himself: a Federation-loyal Ghost-killer. Just like how Darth Vader attempted to turn Luke to the dark side. Unfortunately for Logan, 'Darth Vader' here has a MUCH higher chance of succeeding. The start of the battle to capture the Federation Space station is remarkably similar to the space battle in Moonraker. | |

Throwaway Country: It's mentioned in passing during the prologue that the entire Middle East was utterly incinerated, presumably in some sort of nuclear incident. Specifics are not given (although it's implied this may have been the same conflict where the Ghosts were first created), what's important is that the loss of Middle Eastern oil leads to the collapse of the world's superpowers and the rise of the oil-rich Federation. | |

Alternate History | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_a86069f | comment |
Alternate History: The game takes place in an alternate 21st century where a devastating conflict in the Middle East greatly depleted the world's oil supply and resulted in a global energy crisis. This event gave the oil-rich nations of South America a virtual monopoly on oil, allowing them to form the Federation of the Americas. The Federation would quickly expand until it controlled all of South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. At the start of the game the United States and the Federation are in an uneasy peace, until the Federation decides it wants to add America to its empire. Alternate Continuity: Ghosts is explicitly independent from both of the previous non-historical Call of Duty timelines, Modern Warfare and Black Ops. With its Stillborn Franchise status, it is pretty much a fully independent game with no storyline connection to any other Call of Duty games. | |

Final Solution: 12 years before the main campaign, the leader of the Federation, General Almagro, ordered the execution or imprisonment of all U.S.-born individuals in Federation territory. Naturally, this action drew the wrath of the United States, who sent an invasion force to Venezuela for the purpose of eliminating Almagro. Although the U.S. succeeded in killing Almagro, it did not stop the Federation's aggressive expansionism. | |

Sole Survivor: According to the Ghosts' origin story, they were originally part of a team of 60 Tier 1 operatives drawn from various different branches of the military that was sent against a vastly numerically superior enemy force in the Middle East. Most of the operatives were wiped out, but a handful of survivors regrouped, slaughtered the enemy force in a Roaring Rampage of Revenge, and became the Ghosts. | |

Generic Doomsday Villain: The Federation appear to have no real motive other than "blow up America", which they seem to want solely because they're the antagonists in a Call of Duty game. The entire faction has only four characters from it: Victor Ramos, The Dragon who appears for all of five minutes; General Almargo, who is there solely to be an assassination target and doesn't even have any lines; the leader of the Federation, who is The Ghost, and again has no lines; and Rorke, who was brainwashed into supporting the Federation (rather than performing a genuine Face–Heel Turn, so we have none of that pesky "character depth" getting in the way; his entire character consists of wanting to kill the Ghosts for abandoning him) and thus can't show us any insight into their motives. We get no insight into their history, culture, or even their ideology. They seem to exist solely so that the Ghosts can commit all the war crimes they want without looking bad. | |

Informed Attribute | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_c3448a6f | comment |
Informed Attribute: For being described as basically a Physical God, Rorke is never showing actually doing anything out of the ordinary in combat. The only fights he's shown winning have the other combatant tied to a chair helpless, and kicking a barely-conscious soldier in the face, so he comes off as no different than any other soldier. Then again when the Ghosts are known for being a group that kills large quantities of people while not being seen, it kinda makes sense. Rorke's durability, on the other hand, is, if anything, understated. Applies to the Ghosts themselves. For a group that supposedly specializes in stealth, they are notoriously noisy. Their first mission consists of ramming a stadium full of enemy forces with a truck, guns ablazing. Not very subtle. Rorke is also described as being a Blood Knight and totally obsessed with killing Almagro by Elias... and yet, in the actual mission, he's a decent leader who is just as level-headed as everybody else, if not more so; Elias is a Heroic Mime, Ajax does nothing, and Merrick suggests abandoning the mission for no reason. | |

Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Ghost mask in the briefings look like Darth Nihilus's mask. "The target is a small thermal exhaust port just below the main port." Apollo 13 "Talkback is barberpole, go ahead and retract" During the defense of the American carrier, there is a brief segment where you can save a crewman named Ryan. The "Devastation" DLC pits the player up against - and lets them play as - the iconic extraterrestrial hunter with an invisibility cloak and a clicking growl. The SMG/assault rifle Ripper owes a lot to Ghost in the Shell's Seburo guns. The Federation commandos' rescue of Rorke is pulled from The Dark Knight Rises. The team attacking LOKI is Icarus. | |

Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_ce68d46b | comment |
Next Sunday A.D.: Ghosts and Black Ops 2 both take place in roughly the same future time period. However, while Black Ops 2 had many explicitly Sci-Fi technologies, almost all of the weapons and equipment seen in Ghosts are modern real-world gear, with the major exception of the orbital kinetic strike satellites. Justified in that being bombed into the stone age has restricted U.S. tech growth, while the Federation is an upstart nation that has had a lot of catching up to do in a very short period of time. | |

Elites Are More Glamorous: The Ghosts are made up of former Tier One (i.e. the most elite of the elite, like Delta Force and SEAL Team Six) United States Special Operations soldiers. | |

Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_d5dddf0d | comment |
Mooks, but no Bosses: While Call of Duty has always been generally conservative when it comes to enemy variety, Ghosts is by far the most extreme example in the modern series, with the only enemy type in the single player campaign being basic enemy soldiers, without even the snipers, Shield-Bearing Mook, or Heavily Armored Mook enemies seen in other games in the series. | |

Artificial Brilliance | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_df11acbe | comment |
Artificial Brilliance: The Multiplayer Bots are made to behave exactly like real players, even when playing with bots in local matches. When it came to bots the biggest mistake any player could make was (and still is) giving the enemy team a light machine gun, sniper rifle, or marksman rifle, as bots can camp just like players which can hilariously result in the bot(s) camping using a weapon from those categories, basically making it nearly impossible to gain access to a certain location in whatever map the game mode happens to take place on. While other Call Of Duty titles have the same situation, Ghosts seems to be the most notable when it comes to bot intelligence. They can, do this with other weapons as well, but these three weapon categories seem to be the most common bots will camp with. | |

Whole-Plot Reference: Charismatic antagonist who gets captured, put on a plane, is mocking the protagonists' attempts at doing a High-Altitude Interrogation and breaks free with the help of his own plane, wires and cuts the plane in half causing the pieces to fall? It's The Dark Knight Rises intro scene, only with Rorke in the position of Bane. | |

Turns Red: When the Kraken does this during the boss battle in Mayday, it gets very powerful, at the cost of its defences; hence it is a signal to start hammering it with everything you have. | |

Bash Brothers: Literally. The two main protagonists are a pair of brothers who join the U.S. military and eventually the Ghosts following the devastation and occupation of America. Like Father, Like Son/Pursuing Parental Perils: Their father is also a commanding officer in the U.S. military and a key leader in the resistance against the Federation. He's also the leader of the Ghosts. | |

11th-Hour Superpower: At the beginning of the final mission, you can get a Chain SAW off the body of a dead Fed soldier (it's really easy to miss). It's the only time in the single-player campaign that you can obtain that weapon, which is the closest the campaign has to a portable minigun. | |

Super Not-Drowning Skills: You end up almost being drowned an astonishing number of times throughout the game. It may be that the writers are trying to use water as a motif for the game or its Big Bad, similar to the use of fire in Black Ops 2. | |

Artistic License – Geography | |
Call of Duty: Ghosts (Video Game) / int_e9f517e1 | comment |
Artistic License – Geography: Toward the end of the prologue, there's an amazing Scenery Gorn shot of San Diego being destroyed by ODIN's projectiles while Elias, Logan, and Hesh are driving away in the truck. However, they're looking down on Downtown from a road on a hillside — a vantage point that doesn't actually exist in that part of San Diego (at least, not with an unobstructed view of the waterfront). Their neighborhood also seems more in line with neighborhoods like Carmel Mountain and Rancho Bernardo in northern San Diego, many miles away from downtown. The downtown district looks nothing like its real-world counterpart, either, up to and including the ersatz "Greenway Park", home of the "San Diego Tsunamis". The stadium also looks more like Wrigley Field than the ultra-modern Petco Park. The stadium also has a view of Coronado Bridge that isn't possible where Petco park is really at. The Americans somehow managed to sail a submarine into and out of Lake Titicaca (or some other lake deep in the Andean Mountains), a feat which would require the submarine to be able to fly. The soldiers in the Brazil level speak Spanish, rather than the native Portuguese. The signs at the Brazilian Federation base are also in Spanish. Although, this may be because they are Federation soldiers from other South American countries, and not Brazil. | |
