Ghost Mode.
A lot of threads and posts have been made of how GM (Ghost Mode) is going down the drain or dead. All the posts state that it has been ruined because of BR's, hacks lob siding the GR side, release of new zp melee/guns and false accusations. I disagree because hackz, BR's, QQ's, "noob guns" and kick votes are also present in SnD, but because of the large amount of SD players over GM players it is easier to find private or forum rooms and easier to find competitive clan wars. Ghost Mode is a genius mode IMO and all it needs is more competition and better people, not players.
Ghost Mode requires skills and techniques that players from other games such as CA or CS can't learn. Pinpointing is difficult but also a very advantageous skill and it requires practice. Bunny Hopping is the same as pinpointing, advantageous skill/but hard. It is easier to find the competitive side of GM by joining more GM based clans. This allows you to pub with your own clan + their friends. If we had more tournaments and events for GM like the MotG Tournament (where GM was clearly at it's peak) more players would like to try this mode. Newer, less laggy maps would also be helpful.
Before anyone says anything, I'd like to mention that this is an opinion and you may not agree, but don't put down a mode just because you went into a pub full of Br's or QQ's.

PinPointing you dont even need to learn? Same with Bhop it's so dam easy. (Bhop is on every game btw) -
I have a love/hate with GM
I love the challenge of hunting ghost , and pinpointing . I'm not the best bhopper but thats fun to .
but the constant hackusations , QQers just ruin it for me.
If someone gets me with a good shot , I say" nice shot". not "kick hacker"
breath down ghost using shovles is a bit much sometimes . but that to is part of the play .
I would like to see something done about the legit players getting kicked. other than running with clan members or friends. if you're ace you're out. it's just how it is.
I would like to see a way to prove that you're not using hack programs. I've seen a few suggestions like reported players found legit needing more votes to remove. Higher rank players only allowed to bring up kick vote. host only kick .
I think GM is one of the best modes. but it's ruined by bad players -
that's your opinion but bhopping combined with concept of invisibility is not found in other games.PinPointing you dont even need to learn? Same with Bhop it's so dam easy. (Bhop is on every game btw)
Thank you for this greatly needed post, and yes I do.killuforfree wrote: »1 Question do you hack ? -
I love ghost mode its is the gametype for me in CF but it is rendered unplayable atm.
ive played about 30-40 games the past few days and each one had at least 1 trainee pulling headshots off across the map and going 30-0
to me this is a shame because no other game ive ever played compares to the rush i get in gm
and yes there is votekick but i find that most dont kick them... or at least dont till theyre about to win -

Just more the reason for forumer rooms, but if you wnat the real GM experience you have to join a top notch clan. Pubs are pubs, don't let them affect you. -
you don't realy learn pinpoint from being a snd player, but you sure will learn it a lot faster if you played before, as in under a week to perfection kind of fast. to me, the problem with gm is peoples think pinpointing and bhoping is the only thing their is to gm, its not, theirs a lots of possible strats, its far easier to rotate sites in gm then in snd. the sad part it theirs not really times where you go against some1 where you do need strats...

Fresh blood is one thing, but it's either go find players in pubs and face the br's/hackz/QQ's or play with people you know and get involved on forums. Don't accuse anything no me, I stated an opinion, you didn't agree, that's fine.Maroons like this killed GM.
Hello?
What's the source of fresh blood that feeds GM clans?
Pub matches.
Hi. We're always ready and you know it. Msg me whenever you got nuff.Hey it's Crow, when we gonna scrim?

I'm pretty sure you can't bunnyhop in Sudden Attack. It's a terrible game anyways.
OT: GM is dead simply because most people that were actually good at it moved into S&D. Phong, dot, slm, dellz are a few examples. Now most people can't play it so it's too easy and therefore boring.
Also the community is terrible. -

Thank you for a thoughtful reply. And I do have to agree, half the community is terrible. -
That's exactly why I like GM staying here.
Ping caps could be done (TBH I don't get much reg, so I don't mind if I'm excluded). Or just bloody improve the horrible reg system.
That said, the community is downright horrible. I've always viewed WC as a superior server, yet I get hackusated on my first GM game in two months. Take into account I'm neg in GM. -

yea you don't need to learn, not like you need to apply it real time against multiple hopping ghosts while the ak sprayer is having a epilepsy behind you or anything
you don't need to learn to win wcg, you just point at their heads and click
hops being easy is your opinion but if you are not a complete moron you must realize it is difficult to be a master hopper, so why post such hypocritical post??
