Mysterious Messages on CoD Ghosts Site...

So this was tweeted out today by some IW team members.

When you go to the page there are two clickable elements.

In the lower left is a blue box that has been mostly whited out. In White letters are these numbers, space included

183 84

On the upper right is another box you can click on. It is dark gray with Chalk-like Numbers as shown below

10.480891

-66.903648

So.. any thoughts on what these mean? I am not sure on the first set of numbers.

My first thoughts on the second ones were coordinates. 10.480891 N is Ethiopia... but I can't seem to find anything on the second set. I am, by my own admission, no master navigator.

So.. ideas? Thoughts? Crazy theories?

Ban The Forum Member Above You.. V.2

This is part 2 of a thread from a previous CoDHQ.. It's a simple game.. Ban them for something.

TheEndofTheBeginning - to vets and others

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 01:03:30 GMT

COD

Anyone who posts here will encounter the following same topics without fail:

1- I hate campers

2- Lag comp confusion

3- Over Powered or Buffed

4- DLC contract unfairness

5- Hate on Vets from the forums

I have dealt with many, and its obvious they are simply looking to rouse you up and possibly get you banned for losing your cool.

So I have simple question:

Vets: Does our posts number really matter? Is it not just a sign of consistency?

Newer threadees: Provide good reason to discuss things, cursing, shouting, insulting, bashing will get you the same response. Intellect, wit, humor, consistency will get you better responses and good buds to play the game with.

I started posting with a hateful verbatim, I didn't care but after a long three month ban changed to more "roman ways". Cheers....

Noob Army and wiNd

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 19 May 2013 05:25:59 GMT

What is the difference between wiNd and the Noob Army? I saw Adam saying he was the army's leader and that he would give up leadership to xWheelie once he passes him in posts. xWheelie is the founder and current leader of wiNd so how could he also be the leader of the Army? Or is wiNd the clan leading the Noob Army? If that's the case does that mean who ever is the current leader of wiNd is also the leader of the Noob Army? It's confusing me to say the least... And is SaND fighting against the army? Wouldn't that mean wiNd and SaND are enemies..? Someone from wiNd and SaND enlighten me or even Jedi.

7000 posts ~ Feels like more!

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 01 Feb 2013 16:00:24 GMT

COD,

I just realized I hit 4000 posts! Feels like I write more here than I do with my homework or research! Well here's to the next 4,000 more.....

Note: The same ol' topics get boring guys, wanted to bring something irrelevant to the board.

Past Transgressions - A Future with WInD

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 18 May 2013 19:56:23 GMT

Now OT, son of COD, how many years have you seen countless post and threads longing to see this place, where you are standing now? Here is the place where your former self should be. Here is the place where GRas and Sand once lived and now it is carried away.

Faithful old friends and servants, your devotion to the OT is beyond question. Listen, ill tell you what I have decided to do, and as you listen, make amends to what ever seems amis. When I went to the oracle to discover how I might best avenge unwanted threads, the Gods answerers "give those who write nonsense an equal share of their just desserts". My plan is for you to enter the palace to discover the present state of things among those who live here.

The Gods have blessed the OT with new WinD

M.A.

>>>My FIXES FOR THE NEXT CALL OF DUTY<<<

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 07 Dec 2012 18:45:17 GMT

This game is tailored towards teamwork, we all know it. So far the only way people with out a group can do half decent is if they play mercenary moshpit.

The streaks in this game are way too high beleive it or not. i achieved dogs one time in this game and they only got me 2 kills. Does that seem like something that should be worth 1700 score? no.

My fixes to the game/score streaks:

1: remove care package completly from the game.

(reason) ever since Mw2 there has been care packages and i started to notice a problem with it. The problem is you can get a 3-5 kill streak depending on the game and have a decent chance to get a swarm, dogs, stealth chopper or a reaper, or ac 130 (depending on the game your playing).

2: If a player is taking the time to cap a flag alone (domination) the flag should not blink so the enemys know that its being taken. On top of that, if the player capped the flag completly by him/her self, they should be awarded with 300 score.

3: Increase the amount of score you get for defending a flag zone from 125 to 150.

4: Swarm should be a 1700 score streak, dogs should be a 1200 score streak, warship should be a 1500 score streak, warthog should be a 1300 score streak, escort drone should be a 1000 score streak, the stealth chopper should be a 800-900 score streak. Care package should either be removed from the game or at minimum a 600 score streak. Uav should always be a 400 score streak, with faster sweeping time. CUAV should be a 450 score streak.

5: Taking down air support should offer more score for doing so. Taking down a Uav should offer 100-150 score, taking down the stealth chopper or the escort drown early should give 200. Taking down a warship should give 300 score. Any placable streak you take down should offer 150 score.

6: LMGS/shotguns are underpowered. Smgs have dominated call of duty since mw3. When i see a player useing a LMG they are always holding it from the hip. But for some reason the cross hairs are rediculously huge and when you shoot a LMG the bullets fly in all directions, which is not how it would be in real life. In real life the bullets would go in generally the same direction with a most likely vertical recoil line. There is no way that your bullet will go from the left side of the map to right right in under half a second. The r870 was decent when the game first came out but i noticed it seemed to have been nerfed since then. The s12 and the last shot gun are just jokes and wont last on any map but nuke town to the exclusive owners of that map. Where is my model 1887 from mw2 pre patch?

My solution to Lmgs are extremly small cross hairs, along with little to no recoil while prown ( like in mw3). High to the same bullet damage through out the map ( high range).

7: Fix the Host advantages, when i shoot first i should get the kill. Or better yet, spend a little time 3 years +and extra money on your game to give us dedicated servers.

8: Fix the head glitching, seriously, this problem is not a joke, if i can see only my enemys head if not anything, they should not be able to shoot me.

9: No rubber bullet feeling weapons, if you dont know what i mean, just ask the community. This is most likely a host, connection problem, but at times it takes 4-5 shots up close to get a kill with an assualt rifle. Make the game trully feel as if stopping power was in the game again. Just apply this to every weapon. (make it feel like MW2 scar h with stopping power on core)

10: i have noticed that ever since black ops 1 adding a supressor has reduced the weapon damage and decreases the accuracy. I miss the old feeling cod 4 when useing a supressor was an advantage and giving you better recoil.

11:(final conclusion)

Buff ghost beleive it or not. I know you get feed back about nerfing this, but you already split it into 3 perks, so why make it work half ass? Sometimes camping is a tactic despite the fact i dont like campers. Spawning was something people say needs to be fixed every cod that comes out, but i have sevearly noticed getting shot in the back much more in this game. Rethink domination, as you have with the round based domination, but this time focus on the spawning scenarios. I know its a tough challenge to fix spawning but, i shouldnt have an enemy spawn litteraly behind me. Maybe have the announcer notify when we push too far into the enemys spawn. The announcer could say " we are pushing too far into the enemy's territory! Beware of a possible flank!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------

Please give this a like if you liked it, i put about an hour into making this. Thanks! hope this gets 50k views like my pro perk list!

OT clans?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 18 May 2013 08:46:34 GMT

Who are the active members in GRaS, VuVu, SaND, and wiNd on the BO2 OT? Which one is the most powerful? Can I join one of these clans or do they invite you?

I'm about to say goodbye Microsoft and hello Sony.

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 16 May 2013 06:49:28 GMT

I have been a Xbox player since 2008 and I have been pretty happy overall up til about a year ago. Every since late 2011 early 2012 Microsoft has been charging me for stuff I don't need. Like tonight, I go to get on and play some Duty but I'm greeted by a message saying I need to update my payment options so they can charge me and my account is suspend until then. I STILL HAVE 2 ******* MONTHS LEFT IN MY MEMBERSHIP! I have my own pay pal and stuff on there but when I was younger I had my moms credit card on there and Microsoft took $30 out of her account. Why? No idea. I re newed my membership about a month before and I used (and still do) pre paid cards for MSP. I went to look at my account payment history and in the pass week they have tried to take $25 out like five times. This is the second time they have done this and frankly it is frustrating. So now I can't us online until I let them charge me for nothing or I call them (which I can't do right now because it's 1:45 in the morning). At least with Sony and PS3 if your account gets ****** up or something happens to it it won't cost you a thing. So PS3 guys how is it over there?

EDIT: I also have a 4 moth pre paid membership card the won't let me re-deem.

Castle V5.1.1

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 03 May 2012 22:35:42 GMT

I really wish they would just make one forum and just add in new sections for every new game so I wouldn't have to make a new Castle every year...

Welcome to Jedi's Castle, Version Five!

Everyone is welcome! Except Stewy, he is banned for obvious reasons.

What is this thread?

The castle is a tradition I started back in the World at War days when I was more active and I'm brining it back to help boost OT Forum moral and generate activity. Simply this is a general discussion thread, however since our moderators tend to want us to have a thread with more purpose than just "general discussion", I have random jobs made available to anyone who wants them to help give the castle a direction. Yes, the Castle is just like Whoes Line is it Anyways, Everything is made up and the jobs don't matter. The jobs are like the tip jar in McDonalds... you get the idea. Feel free to join in and become a part of an old off topic section tradtion!

v 5.0.1 - Updated the moderator list since it was old and also added nukes

The Adventures of Splittah an Dtuch..

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 22 Mar 2013 06:16:05 GMT

In a land far away.. approximately 2 years ago. 2 men were locked in a battle of the wits. No words were spoken.. They stared blankly at each other.. It was the battle of who was going to discover what, why, there is over powered existence. We know from the GRaS Movement that it and grass is over powered.. Though through their resolve they are determined to find the "Others".

So as Dtuch and I traverse through the lands.. I believe that we will find the "Others". We will become that force that isn't needed, but that will exact its authoritah regardless..

SaND I choose you!

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 18 May 2013 20:46:59 GMT

After getting declined from joining wiNd it put some sense into my mind. SaND is the only true option here, ChestSplittah and dtuchpunk I beg you with all my soul will you let me join your organization? wiNd now has 7 people and is growing at a alarming rate you need all the people you can get.

Official Monumental Post Thread

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 20:01:05 GMT

We need one here, don't we?

"We are all excited about the next COD, and discussions on these forums are great. Posts like these drown out relevant posts about COD."

Its off-topic there is about 100 sections to talk about "relevant posts about COD", OT is that one section where we can enjoy not having constant COD posts.

Hope JeepChick you will cut some slack and not lock this one, plz

Great OT philosophy thread!

Question about Woods

So i heard that some of the devs at Treyarch (and i think Woods' voice actor) made a video that showed how Woods and Kravchenko survived the grenades exploding. I cant find it, does anybody have the link?

A Voice of Reason..Must Rise From The Turmoil

Chaos, Bloodshed, Oppression, Coloniolism...

There are many things happening in the OT. Some disturbing to some, not to others.

I call upon the Voice of Reason.. The Oval Office of OT to try and broker peace...

If you don't know what GRaS is, make a thread asking about it.

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 14:59:13 GMT

Ok what is GRaS?
