Create A Soldier
Call of Duty: Ghosts is the first in the series to let you customize more than just a loadout. Now players can change the appearance of their character, purchase multiple characters, finely tune their weapons, perks and strike packages and wrap it all up in many different styles of camo for their character and weapon.

Ghosts allows you to more define your online persona. Of course, this is Call of Duty, so most of your time will be spent on making the perfect loadout, but don't forget about the countless unlocks available to make your soldier unique. You can change many aspects of their appearance, and even customize your clan tag.

Squad Points
Squad Points are used as currency in the Multiplayer section of Call of Duty: Ghosts. They are used to unlock new characters, weapons, attachments and Strike Packages. They can be found in the top left corner of the screen while customizing your soldier, and are represented by a golden coin in the game.

Squad Points are earned in a number of ways. You will always receive 2 upon ranking up. Completing Operations will also reward more points, as will completing in game field orders (the blue briefcases found during battle). Doing well while completing various Operations will reward you with Squad Points, allowing you to quickly outfit your weapons with anything you may want, giving you the edge on the battlefield.

Weapons and Equipment
Call of Duty has always been home to a wide array of weapons, and Ghosts is no different. There are many returning weapons, along with some new ones to choose from. All weapons and equipment have been broken down into set categories, like Assault Rifles, Shotguns, Handguns or Tactical Equipment.

In Call of Duty: Ghosts, weapons and equipment are unlocked using Squad Points. This means that you have access to any weapon at any level, so long as you can afford the purchase price. Attachments and equipment function the same way, so once you have a few dozen Squad Points, you can go to town on your loadout and purchase a full compliment of gear to take into battle.

Strike Packages
The new form of the kill streak, the Strike Package allows you to call in support from off the map. This can take the form of a simple SAT-COM, or a powerful Hind helicopter patrolling the skies, to the mighty Odin satellite. The packages are split between 2 categories, Assault and Support. Assault packages are more powerful, but harder to earn since your streak is lost upon death. Support streaks aren't lost on death, but generally don't pack the same punch. A third category exists, Specialist, which rewards additional Perks instead of Strike Packages.

Every character comes with 6 packages unlocked by default, 3 in the Assault category and 3 in Support. More can be unlocked with Squad Points but take note of how much they cost. The cost also represents how many kills it takes to use it. For instance, the Helo Pilot requires 12 Squad Points, meaning it also needs 12 kills to use in game.

Perks
The perk system in Call of Duty: Ghosts is slightly different then previous games. Now, you have 8 points to spend, and can split them up in any way you choose. This means you can set up your loadout with 8 different perks that cost 1 points, or two powerful perks that cost 4 points.

Perks are split up into 7 categories, with each perk in costing more points as you get further into the category, starting as low as 1 and ending at 5. Additional perk slots can also be unlocked by removing your lethal, tactical and secondary options from your loadout. Perks, unlike most other things, are unlocked by your level, meaning you will have to rank up to unlock them. However, Squad Points can be used to purchase them early, however some of the later ones are values at over 10 points.

Game Modes
Call of Duty: Ghosts has no shortage of game types for people to try out. The classics of the series have remained, such as Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed and [Free-for-All]. New types have arrived also, like Cranked and Blitz.

CoD players will know what to expect from these various modes. Most are 8-12 players, and completing a match will reward you with various amounts of experience points and Squad Points. There are also Hardcore versions, which will have players taking more damage while also dealing with the loss of their mini-map.

Multiplayer Maps
Ghosts ships with 14 maps for players to run around in, with many more expected in the coming months (as paid downloadable content). Each map will offer unique challenges for players to overcome. Some maps feature lots of vertical structures, ensuring you must not only check left and right, but up and down as well. Many maps also feature destroyed buildings and rubble strewn all about, giving players plenty of opportunities to lay traps.

Specialist Strike Package
Killstreak Works almost like in Modern Warfare 3 by allowing you to stack perks as your streak increases. The streak and perk rewards reset upon death.

You get to choose 3 perks and they are activated in the order you choose them. To be activated, each selected perk requires the same amount of kills the perk costs + one. For example, Marathon costs 2 points, which means you'll need 3 kills to activate it.

You also get to choose an additional 8 points worth of perks and they are called the "Specialist Bonus". The bonus is activated 2 kills after the 3rd perk (from above) has been activated, meaning you'll need between 8-17 kills, depending on your perk selection
