Modern Warfare 3: Ghost Is Alive!

Here at SFX-360 we have been studying the new released Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer Trailer released yesterday at Call of Duty XP. After looking over the video we have found a major a major clue about Ghost. If you look at the dog tags in the multiplayer trailer they have Ghost’s name on them. We here at SFX-360 believe that the game developers were leaving us a clue that Ghost is Alive.

Nice catch but I do not think infinity ward are stupid. He was shot and then set on fire for quite a bit

I know the SAS are hard but not that hard. You would have to be super human

thrasherv35369d ago

"Nice catch but I do not think infinity ward are stupid."

Oh, I disagree. During WWII Capt.Price was shot on a German ship so I left him(he wasn't moving). I think I blew the ship up after I made my escape...and then he was shot and left to die on a bridge 70 years later but later turns up just fine. Mortality does not mean anything to IW. NOTHING.

iamnsuperman5369d ago (Edited 5369d ago )

Its trivia. Every IW COD game there is Capt Price (also worth noting that the two Prices are different, one is john price the other is just price). Its a little different when you are continuing a story. People survive gun shot wounds and can die but be brought back. Its the golden hour. There were people there resuscitating him. I think though being shot and set of fire and left with no-one else means the end for ghost.

gamingdroid5369d ago

ah sh!t watching that video made me miss MW2. I'm really looking forward MW3!

Kee5369d ago (Edited 5369d ago )

Yeah, that's not the same captain price...
(Plus, if he was a soldier for 70 years, you'd think he'd have a higher rank than captain... if he was even still alive)

I liked ghost, though. Looked really cool.

I wonder if we'll be playing as soap again?

Bull5hifT5369d ago (Edited 5369d ago )

Sorry who is Ghost , All i know them by Is Ghilly Suit Guy, FroHawk Guy, and Main Dude... And JauggerKnaught, Or the Old Dude That Got His Arm Shot Off..... I never Bothered to remember these made up Characters , niw that you mention it captin price is the Guilly Suit Guy and Soap is the main guy >>> i really wanna see this "Ghost" what game is he in?

Kaizin5145369d ago

@Bull5hifT

Ghost was a main character who was a part of the SAS in MW2. He is the "Guy with the skull mask."

Iroquois_Pliskin5369d ago

wait hows that possible? He got shot in the face and then burnt alive...

Motorola5369d ago

I friendly fired Sgt. Bowling in MW2 and he was at COD XP. Infinity Ward are magicians.

red2tango5368d ago

@Iroquois Sorry but how do you get shot in the face and burnt alive? You're already dead...

Would be EPIC if they bring him back as a cyborg.

I think the military has the technology now to do this.

Too much Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Mass Effect 2, huh?

HenryFord5369d ago

His heart stopped beating - let's pump some roboter-stuff and nanoparticles into him, it all will be fine!

Seriously - you believe that this kind of technology remotely exists? Green Light for RoboCop in RL?

Getowned5369d ago (Edited 5369d ago )

that would just ruin cod even more then it already is lmao ..but is there really such a thing as too much mass effect ?

Downtown boogey5369d ago

How about MW?
Even if you shoot Imran Zakhaev IN THE HEAD WITH A 50 CAL, he still manages to not die... At all...

iamnsuperman5369d ago (Edited 5369d ago )

That is a little different. Would ruin the story and also have some sort of weird time paradox if you could(also you shoot him in the arm not the head that is why he is missing an arm). Also when shooting a weapon, even if you crosshairs are on target doesn't mean it hits that target.

Downtown boogey5369d ago

I'm merely pointing out the stupidity of the game and yes, of course I made the astute observation that the bullet you fire gets its trajectory heavily altered by the wind (you pretty much cannot hit Zakhaev, if you're pointing directly at him after all). Still, I shot him in the head and he only lost his arm.

casuaIGAM3R5368d ago

its because the game is scripted, so you don't dome him in the head :P.

hqgamez5369d ago

well they were stupid thinking people would love the game even if it was the same engine used.

rabidpancakeburglar5369d ago

Looking at that video, it seems only roach gets set on fire, so assuming the bullet didn't kill him(I know it's a headshot but they aren't always fatal) he could be alive.

aviator1895369d ago

Hmm, it'd be a cool twist if ghost actually was alive and he was the one man behind starting world war 3 due to the betrayal by shepherd.

NYC_Gamer5369d ago

why bring back a character that clear as day died

Micro_Sony5369d ago

Well rumors has it that Nathan Hale will be in R3 so it must be a game trend to bring back dead people from the dead.

What next old snake in MGS5 :)

Jio5368d ago

They're going to do a Metal Gear Solid story, The body of Ghost that was burned was nothing but a clone and in fact he was alive and well hunting down the people that did this to him.

PRHB HYBRiiD5369d ago

Well if he is alive he might look like this..

masasame5369d ago (Edited 5369d ago )

or this btw notice the back of his helmet there's a red skull mark

ljh2175369d ago

We never saw ghosts face. It could have easily not been ghost who died. His name is even 'Ghost', maybe IW are hinting at his return with his name as well. Seriously though, Ghost's character just screams 'jesus like resurrection imminent'.

J86blum5369d ago

Read the comics they clearly lead up to him joining the SAS and all that Jazz, its hime im not even a fan and I know it is Ghost. lol ghost could be alive and all steven hawkings in a wheelchair thats be funny.

Modern Warfare 3 flooded with cheaters after arrival on Xbox Game Pass

Players are using hacks to gain an advantage in the game, such as aimbots and wall hacks. The first gives a player superhuman aiming abilities, while a wall hack lets you see through walls to gauge where other players are.

Jin_Sakai654d ago (Edited 654d ago )

“These hacks are typically used by PC players, but those playing on PC via Xbox Game Pass are identified as Xbox players in multiplayer lobbies.”

This is pretty dumb to say the least.

Cacabunga654d ago

All about them headshots for Xbox

badz149654d ago

Gotta pump those numbers up

blackblades654d ago

That's a WTF, they suppose to be labeled as pc users even if its on PC game pass. They mess that up big time.

XiNatsuDragnel654d ago

Oh bad this will be entertaining to watch

ZycoFox654d ago

If AI keeps getting better (and it will) it's just a matter of time before there's more sophisticated cheats even for consoles, and they wouldn't even need to be running on it, I have little doubt about that.

lelo2play654d ago

Don't Gamepass online games have anti-cheat systems?
If not, that's pretty dumb. Microsoft need to fix that asap.

Rynxie654d ago (Edited 654d ago )

They won't ever fix this problem, unless they (developers, publishers, Sony and MS) go after the cheat providers directly. You no longer need to hack consoles to use hacks. During the ps360 days, they were going after cheat devices, but it was a cat and mouse game. These cheating methods were around during those days, it's nothing new, but they kept it under control. Since the PS4/Xbox one generation, they stopped going after these cheating devices and it became widespread. Which I find odd, since they started charging for online play (PS4).

StormSnooper654d ago (Edited 654d ago )

Possibly, this is because the companies were going after cheats because the same cheats were being used to pirate the games, whereas today, the companies use online verification to prevent piracy, thus eliminating the need to go after people who cheat only to gain an advantage in the game. As long as the cheater remains below the radar, and does not completely break the game, the companies look the other way as their wallets are not threatened by it. (that is my completely Uneducated opinion on the matter)

pwnmaster3000654d ago

I mean, COD games was always filled with hackers, nothing new. I can’t blame MS on this. Activision had years to try and fix this. Might take MS some time to make some change.

Rude-ro654d ago

It all depends…
Microsoft’s guidance on how to handle gamepass on pc and their love to force crossplay with pc seems like a them issue.
And they own activision, so it is still a them issue.

StormSnooper654d ago

lol well that sucks.

Is there a reason this happened upon arrival on xbox?

Activision Reportedly Sold An AI-Generated Skin In Call Of Duty

The Yokai's Wrath bundle was released despite previous guarantees by Activision that A.I. would not be used for final assets, per the report. Instead, Activision assured developers it was simply for internal concepts. That, of course, was not followed through. For what it's worth, per the PlayStation Store, 2,400 COD Points cost $19.99, meaning players potentially spent real-life money on a skin that was not created by an actual human.

As far as A.I. use goes across Activision, a source told Wired that 2D artists are utilizing A.I. to aid their work. That is a result of mass layoffs, in which many 2D artists were impacted. “A lot of 2D artists were laid off,” the source named Noah said. “Remaining concept artists were then forced to use A.I. to aid in their work.” Mandatory A.I. trainings have been implemented, according to Noah.

I mean, is this even surprising?

just_looken657d ago

It is not ubisoft has a ai tool for crating stories/script's they even talked about npc's having there own ai speech like we see with those skyrim mods.

Ai is the future sadly which sucks in so many way's.

S2Killinit657d ago (Edited 657d ago )

Activision. And MS. They will ruin console gaming forever.

Oh and where the FRIGGIN outrage people? When Sony makes a remaster of a masterpiece single player story driven game, they get roasted. But this, this, goes unnoticed? Then don’t complain that you aren’t getting enough single player story games.

Ea and ubisoft also use ai

ea using ai for development threatening mass layoffs.

ubisoft ai for npc speech

Almost every big boy in the industry is using ai in some sort of way now

Oh and sony? well they are making spyware ai were they can see how long it took you to do X and adjust difficultly.

How is that a response to what I said? Are they also selling AI generated skins?

@S2Killinit

You never mentioned skins in your comment just stated its all microsoft's fault like so many others.

When like i showed they are late to the ball game as every other company is using or plans to use ai in various field.

If you combine everything then its getting closer to hitting a button and poof out comes a game no soul no passion nothing.

Right now its art/3d models/skins/writing/voice work some and coding can all be done via ai.

S2Killinit657d ago (Edited 657d ago )

That was the whole point of my comment, I wrote it in response to the article. Instead of focusing on making exciting games and developing talented developers, they are busy making AI generated skins that people are buying for huge sums of money. Then, some people turn around and shit on Sony when it tries to capitalize on single player classics by making remasters, and the same people then complain that they want more single player games. MS cannabalized the industry because they never thought making games was essential to their business. So, instead of nurturing theor own studios, they let them die, then went and shrunk the industry, hurting interests of every gamer in the world. Anytime there is a bad trend in the industry, MS is at the helm, leading the way. That is what I’m saying.

smashman98656d ago

I'm sorry but do you honestly believe Sony will sit out of A.I. Every executive at every one of these publishers is wetting themselves in delight at the prospect of A.I. You best believe that once we start seeing it spread throughout the industry Sony won't be too far behind. The only people we'll have to blame are the consumers themselves.

S2Killinit656d ago (Edited 656d ago )

No, I don't believe that Sony will not do the same. But, as I mentioned, MS is always the first to embrace such things and create the worst trends. Once they establish that this is the best way to make money, everyone else will follow. (Have to follow if they want to stay competitive)

thesoftware730656d ago

S2, and blackblades:

All from the Horse's mouth below.

"Artificial intelligence (AI) in video games is crucial for Gen Z and Gen Alpha, who seek “personalization across everything,” says PlayStation executive Asad Qizilbash."

“Advancements in AI will create more personalized experiences and meaningful stories for consumers.”

"He emphasized that AI could enable non-player characters to interact with players based on their actions, enhancing the personal connection within the game."

Yeah, Just MS and Activision...smh

S2Killinit656d ago

I’ve already explained myself twice. Quit your false equivalence, same thing the xbox fateful pulled before and after the ABK acquisitions. Which by the way, blew up in your faces real good. Now, doing the same thing when someone brings up MS’s nefarious behavior, defend them to the end, and watch them scorch gaming as they have been. At least rest of us can take consolation in that the smoke will go in your eyes before anyone else’s.

thesoftware730656d ago (Edited 656d ago )

"Quit your false equivalence, same thing the xbox fateful pulled before and after the ABK acquisitions. Which by the way, blew up in your faces real good."

I'm not sure what you are talking about, you seem to have a issue communicating, because we are on a post about using AI to create video games content, and you put that solely at the feet of MS and Activision, when it's being, and will be used industry wide, right from Sony mouth, I would say it's relevant...then you went on to give Sony a spit shine slob down about a masterpiece TLoU when this had absolutely nothing to do with Sony or TLoU, then you attempted to clean up your rambling spit shine with no real backing for a ridiculous comment.

Obviously you meant to post that nonsensical over exaggerated comment. I also don't know what blew up in people faces, I am perfectly fine with the game industry, I don't have time to be internet outraged about nothingness.

Really read your comment and listen to what you said.

"Activision. And MS. They will ruin console gaming forever."

Bro, for real? Really? Seriously? It's that serious? So there is nothing Sony and Nintendo can do against MS and Activision? MS is 3rd place with you even talking about?

If we stay relevant on MTX, then you still sound ridiculous because again, you lay it all at MS and Activision's feet when almost all companies have used some form of MTX, including yup... Sony.

S2Killinit652d ago

I read this comment, it boiled down to “seeiously?”.

My answer: yes seriously. Since you didn’t say anything else, what else can I tell you? Yes MS is seriously ruining gaming. They have been for some time, and working their way to where we are today, and aren’t even done yet. MS are the worst thing to happen to console gaming.

"The Yokai's Wrath bundle was released despite previous guarantees by Activision that A.I. would not be used for final assets, per the report."

We're talking concept art? Because as of right now there's no way to generate a final 3D model with final textures. So the final assets don't use AI. That's not to say that it sucks for 2D artist that it's easier to generate visual ideas and build from them leading to less 2D artists needed (really sucks), but are they say the final concept art was completely AI generated and then 3D artists built from that? And yes, I'll pile on that Activision as a publisher and their developers I have experience with suck and they'll do whatever, ethics be damned.

Thats actually a very useful and informative piece, thank you.

PapaBop657d ago

Wow I can just imagine the likes of Activision, EA and Ubi etc having an army of AIs creating overpriced crap and the fanboys just lapping it up. I hope the AIs have a good union.

montebristo656d ago

I understand why people think it’s good idea to Unionize to fight back against such things but it’s not. It’s a bad idea. It’s activisions wet dream to have these pumped out weekly by some AI. Protect your neck!
