Ghost Mode

Ghost Mode Artwork.

Ghost Mode is a game mode in Crossfire. This mode is the same as Search & Destroy mode, but the difference is that the Black List soldiers are wearing Ghost suits (that helps them become invisible when standing still), with only melee weapons and big breath sound. Global Risk soldiers will still have all their equipment, but must prevent Black List from successfully destroying a bomb site.

Gameplay

A new game mode which brings thrill and suspense to players. Black List wear partial invisibility suits and must plant a C4 in certain areas (A or B) and attacks their opponent, while Global Risk needs to prevent them from planting the C4, or has to defuse it in order to win.

The Black List soldiers become transparent in Ghost Match due to special equipment but they can only attack their opponent with melee. Ghosts are slightly visible while moving.

Global Risk must pay careful attention to the after-image, breathing sound, and the sound of footsteps of the ghost team to defeat the Black List with their full arsenal of weapons. It is often hard for ghosts to win because of the advantage that GR has with guns, and most of the time ghosts will split up while GR soldiers stay together.

Tactics

Black List:

• Backward-Hop: Black List soldiers can move while staying invisible. Ghosts have to sit down, then move backwards while pressing the Space Bar. A split second before you land, you have to press the Space Bar again and repeat this until you come at your destination.
• Forward-Hop: More difficult and dangerous. Performed in the same way as Backward-Hop, but players have to run forward before they jump, so they will be visible whenever they start this skill. Only useful when there is no GR soldier looking in your way. Or you can first perform a Backward-Hop, use your mouse to turn forward and switch from moving backwards to moving forwards. This is a more difficult way of performing a Forward-Hop.
• Crouch-moving: You can hold Control (ctrl) and move forward slowly (tap W, don't hold). You will still be visible but more invisible than sprinting (very useful in Vietnamese version).

NOTE: These skills requires a lot of experience, and only trained players will be able to perform this skill flawless.

Global Risk:

• Soundplay: The most useful way to detect ghosts. GR players are able to hear the breath of ghosts, as well as their footsteps. Tip 1: If you hear footsteps, you should be alert because a ghost thinks he can move while you can't see him. Watch your back and check corners! Tip 2: If you can hear the breath of a ghost, you should be extremely careful! A ghost is within 10 metres of you, so try to center it's breath in your headphones.
• Using surround headphones is highly recommended, because GR players can center the noise, so you can specify the place of a ghost.
• GR players can also see ghosts through the smoke of smoke grenades. They can also see their footsteps in water and sometimes even trough lasers & some other sources of light.
• Silenced weapons are highly recommended. Spraying with MGs will only make it hard for teammates to hear ghost breathing will most likely end up with a force leaving vote. If you absolutely must use MG, pick KAC-Chainsaw, it's the only silenced MG you can spray safely without disturbing your teammates.

• Breath Sound Down: Reduce ghost's breath sound when they are standing still.
