Call of Duty: Ghosts extinction guide

Getting Started

As you start the game, you and your team will be placed in front of a chopper that drops off a rather large drill. Get used to this drill as you will be lugging it through the entire game with you. As soon as the chopper takes off, pick up the drill and carry it a few feet forward to the gooey, pulsating blob of pink nastiness which is the first hive. Place it at the front of the hive and as it begins to drill into it, the aliens will start to attack, and your first challenge will appear. More often than not it is to only use melee attacks, but sometimes it is to not get hurt.

Kill the aliens as they swarm in and you will also need to protect the drill as it works on the hive. You can check the status of how far the drill has gone and has to go by the meter on the left side of the screen, and if the drill gets destroyed during its process, it will end the game. It can get damaged which will require someone to run over and repair it (which an engineer is useful for), but if the person repairing the drill is covered, it is not that big of a deal. Once the drill finishes its business, the round will end and you will be awarded a skill point.

If you satisfied the challenge requirements, you will receive two skill points. This is the gist of the entire game. You will move from hive to hive and let the drill destroy them as you and your squad try to protect it and wipe out the alien threat that constantly appears until you finally reach the end. You will need to have a squad that is properly outfitted and hopefully leveled up some to make it, and even then, it can be a rough ride. To let you have a fighting chance, there are several classes and skills that you can choose from…
