How Stabbing Women in CoD: Ghosts Makes Us Feel

IGN - The Unlocked crew talks about the Call of Duty: Ghosts reveal and how seeing a woman stabbed in a realistic multiplayer game made them feel.

jessupj4668d ago

The very fact this subject was brought up offends me greatly.

Fortunately it's pleasing to hear most women talking about this issue have sensible views.

It seems mostly that the white knights are getting sand in their vagina about this.

TomShoe4667d ago

Stabbing a woman in CoD will feel the same as when I stab a man. It'll feel awesome.

Equality for all.

W34KN35S4667d ago

I agree as well im already sick of these articles.... its all a game none of it is real , i wish people could just enjoy it for what it is and not blow it out of proportion. male or female who cares..the only article i wanna see about a female character in Ghost is how we have more freedom to customize our characters, everything else is more drama n nonsense

TekoIie4667d ago (Edited 4667d ago )

People need to understand context here. Your are not stabbing a woman. You are stabbing an enemy combatant.

Its ok for violence of any sort in entertainment as long as there's context... There's probably a limit but it depends greatly.

iiwii4667d ago

Been killing women characters in games for years. Anyone who has played some of the older games like Unreal Tournament (1999) already know that if you don't take that woman player out first, she will have no mercy on you. Equality for all. Bring it Ladies.

Only thing is, I know that guys will pick those characters and try to taunt you because you are getting p0wnd by a girl. It's an age old strategy.

1OddWorld4667d ago

Couldn't agree with you more. It isn't even a talking point. Seems a little sexist to me, like they don't want women in there game. There all sitting there acting super sensitive to the subject. The girl is not bothered by it at all, because now she gets to own these three delicate flowers as a chick in game.

It's a game of kill or be killed. Give me a brick and I will cave her head in.

nick3094667d ago

And stubbing men is ok? Wow those articles are so odd.

Donnieboi4667d ago (Edited 4667d ago )

They are inadvertently trying to turn women into "damsels in distress" by even suggesting that they should get an exemption. If it's war, being stabbed, shot, etc are concerns you have to face. Is it okay for the female character to stab males? This is a rediculously demeaning topic for women to assume that they should be protected and treated like mindless, defenseless little newborns.

If a female soldier pointed a gun in my face and all I had was a knife, she's getting stabbed if the opportunity presents itself. Same for a dude soldier. War isn't some pampered beauty spa. It's violence. And any woman who is a soldier understands that.

Thatguy-3104667d ago

Just having women for the sake of having them is stupid overall. I want a studio to come out and make a war game that pulls the heart strings and has a strong narrative.

Feralkitsune4667d ago

Spec Ops the Line has a very strong narrative.

ginsunuva4667d ago

Too bad it's not theirs, it's Joseph Conrad's.

spoonard4667d ago

Why should I only be stabbing men? Why not women and children too? It's a video game, not real life. We should be able to stab who we want.

kornbeaner4667d ago

These people are ass-backwards. Women are out there in the real battle field being shot at. Why, even in a imagery world should they not be represented? Not only MEN die in War jerks, Women die too.

OneAboveAll4667d ago

Yes but most women aren't on the front line. In USA anyways.

Godlovesgamers4667d ago

And how would you know that exactly?

sincitysir14667d ago

They will be seeing as a law was passed that woman must now be on the field alongside men. I Shud know my
Friends a marine

TekoIie4667d ago (Edited 4667d ago )

Women are on the frontlines. I think the only place women arent in the military are special forces.

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth1561d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo1561d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy1561d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad1560d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX1561d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam1561d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje1561d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad1560d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude1561d ago (Edited 1561d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain

Wore implementation I've ever seen,.. guess it just does not work all that great on every engine

MarkyMark892522d ago (Edited 2522d ago )

Agree, but this gives me hope that one day Ray Tracing can be a software based feature and not require some type of proprietary hardware to achieve. Software will always outpace Hardware so it could happen, but I feel like its going to take a lot more time to achieve the same level that RTX has already shown glimpses of so far. Really just waiting for Cyberpunk to see if RTX is actually something viable. I think if anybody can truly showcase RTX Features it would be Projekt Red.

zeal0us2522d ago

Too bad it doesn't make Mankind Divided a better game.

starchild2522d ago

It doesn't need to, the game was already fantastic, imo.

zeal0us2521d ago

Human Revolution was a better game and not to mention longer.

isarai2522d ago

Reshade is not raytracing, its a screen space post processing effect. Thats like calling SSAO "global illumination"
