Ghosts on Duty
We would like to seperate Call of Duty Ghosts from its previous games from the franchise Call of Duty for its
unexpected turn into the stealth-action as well as the combination with the space scenes wich still gives the game more
futuristic-like appearance. We could ses many previous games from the Call of Duty franchise, and all of them featured
futuristic weapons and technologies, but, actually, Call of Duty Ghosts brings in new element, and that is, as we said, the
stealth-action. This is more like Call of Duty meets both Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell franchise and some space war-based
game. However, for the record, Call of Duty Ghosts is still closer to Splinter Cell than some space war-based game because
the fact that there are only scenes in space and the actual game is mostly in-land and the multiplayer maps are the same.
The game was released in 2013 as a first-person shooter video game and the story takes place in 2017
and then 10 years later in the war between the United States and the Federation. Back in 2017, U.S. Army officer Elias Walker
tells his sons, Logan and David “Hesh” Walker , the legend of how the Ghosts, an elite coalition of all U.S. Special Operations units,
first appeared. Meanwhile, in space, the “Federation of the Americas” hijack the controlling space station of the
Orbital Defense Initiative (ODIN), an orbital superweapon that utilises kinetic bombardment, which is a hypothetical act of attacking
a planetary surface with an inert projectile, where the destructive force comes from the kinetic energy of the projectile impacting at
very high velocities and its concept originated during the Cold War. They used the kinetic bombardment in order to destroy several
cities in the southwestern United States. The surviving American astronauts, Baker and Mosley, sacrifice themselves to self-destruct
the space station and prevent other ODIN satellites from launching their payloads further inland. Back to the Earth, Elias and the
teenage Logan and David narrowly escape the destruction of San Diego, California. From here starts the war that goes on throughout
the game.
