Official Call of Duty®: Ghosts Squads Trailer

Squads introduces a whole new level of competition to Call of Duty: Ghosts. Combining the unrivaled Multiplayer experience with cutting edge AI, Squads lets you play a variety of new game modes with your customized squad-mates. Play solo against another player and their squad, or cooperatively with friends, competing versus an AI-controlled squad. Best of all, the XP earned in Squads is directly connected to your Multiplayer progress!

I hope they bring Squads back. Despite Ghosts multiplayer's low playercount, I can still find games with near perfect connections despite playing people in China. And when I can't find any lobbies, I can hop into Squads and progress my squad and my soldiers. Loved the Create-A-Soldier. Not only did it increase the amount of Create-A-Classes from 10 to 100, but it played so well for Squads. I used my soldiers for different map sizes. Had some soldiers built for close quarters, others for mid, some for long, some for fun setups, etc. It made Prestiges far more interesting as well. Loved that weapons could be unlocked in any order too. With the perks were the same.

But the Squads mode has added such longevity to Ghosts. I can hop on and challenge another player's squad, and it feels like I'm playing regular multiplayer. AI in other CoDs only react to line of sight or taking damage. AI for Ghosts were just amazing. I was stunned often when I would spot an AI on one side of a car which I would shoot at for it to flank to the other side. AI react to gun sounds, friendly deaths, reloads noises, and more. I've even been dropshot by AI in this game before. And the AI would completely play to their class. Give an AI nothing but agility perks and a sniper, and it'll quickscope, but give it stealth perks, and it will hardscope. Give an AI a riot shield, and it'll stick to friendly players, and nearby friendlies will try to stay behind them. I use to always run a soldier with a shield in my squad because they were great for Dom.

But please just give us Squads back. It's just awesome knowing I can logon and play the game at any time and not face generic bots for meaningless wins in offline. It's so much more intense trying to climb leaderboards, and it's so fun since some games are highly competitive. I've had to sweat some times playing this mode to clutch a win. Not to mention the added layers of the Soldier system doubling the customization, creativity, and strategy. I think IW would have been great with the Combat Rigs and some of their team oriented traits.

I have not played it yet but the Squad Modes looks like the best addition to the series since the original Create A Class in COD4.

I have read the reviews and honestly I could care less that they say its the same as the others just with different maps and weapons because they took the safe choice of "If its not broken dont fix it." Yes people prefer may prefer older maps over newer maps but that is because they are not familiar with the new ones yet and they shouldn't blame it on the maps when they should really be blaming themselves.

Yes I'm a bit dissapointed they took out Ground War for current gen consoles but it was a sacrifice that had to be made for the other small things they added in as well like the audio adjustments and such.

This game is a great start to a new series based in that universe and people must remember they can still continue to improve things through patches and continue to improve stuff like Squads Mode in the games that come after Ghosts.

Squads is the best thing about Ghosts besides the campaign. It's a lot fun!

[Jean_Pierre_Wehry]

I'm typing this on October 3rd, 2023; exactly 10 years since this video was uploaded. I'm here to show my appreciation for this awesome game. Ghosts didn't get the love it deserved.

[Hyenaboi]

Please bring this back to the newer cods

[TraceguyRune]

Squads was the best thing in GHOST IMHO

[MKPStudios]

this is amazing. I love this mode soooo much!!

[Gulfboys]

good concept. like the fact you can create your own platoon from scratch and still be challenged by friends when you're offline

[DieGokuDBZ]

This game will be awesome, in all aspects. I played CoD since 2003 with Call of Duty 1. Now, 10 years later, IW releases a very good game.

where can i get the cod ghosts mask ????

"Same tactics as real players do in multiplayer? This could have been the best addition to COD since multiplayer but the developers forgot to have the AI aim down sights rendering the whole concept useless. When I spot a bot from mid to semi-long range, the bot hip fire kills me with an AR or SMG before I even get to look down sights. I asked over and over for Infinity Ward, Activision, Teanah, & Mark Rubin to please fix this but flat out get ignored. Squads could have been bigger than Treyarch's zombies but as usual developers ignore feedback. This is something that should have been fixed prior to release. If Infinity Ward and Activision care at all about the loyal patrons who purchase their games & DLC year after year they will fix it so bots have to aim down sights just like we do. How do you not make this right?

"Play Extinction Online"
What are you hiding, Infinity Ward?

[QuazaJazz]

I really had no intent on buying ghosts, but now with the new squad modes and possibly the rumored extinction mode, I plan to get it launch.

[DanCanSnipe]

Finally a COD that I might like after like 4 years time

[Legendskilled]

This game looks really good. Graphics wise also this game looks phenomenal knowing the fact that it is running on 60 fps and battlefield will be running on 30 fps. The frame rate makes a big difference and changes the whole dynamics of the game play. The frame rate is the reason why COD outsells battle field or any other shooter every year because it makes the game so smooth and fun to play. These graphics still look really awesome running on 60 FPS.

[Lucasowns]

Hey @Darshan Davis it most likley is Alien type of mode cause they realised the achievements for the mode and it's says reach the city and get to the chopper hinting predator quote and says get kills with traps

[DaknrssWlf]

CoD is developed by two teams and take turns every year and they use different engines and everything.

[zKuchiru]

So you can level up for multiplayer by playing against bots, this is just marvelous. Everyone is gonna be the highest prestige within a week.

[briantlager]

Can't Wait For That Squads Survival Mode ! They Wised Up And Now We Get 4 Players Instead Of 2 ! :-)

[tahthedon]

OK now THAT'S a step up. Not just changing maps and a few other things. THIS is an actual update.
