Ghost haters : Legit or just making excuses ?

ehhh.....  Ghost might be more FRUSTRATING to some rather than a legit complaint.   Sure, it can be a pain once in a while, but its just another thing to adapt and survive against.   and if you cant... then you have every resource to ADD it to your loadout kit.   There's also counter-spy planes to help.        Not complaining, but where it frustrates me every now and then is when an enemy with ghost pro is standing directly between me and a teammate, so i dont fire because i see the green name above his head... only to be shot by him and realize what happened.

It's a true imbalance with the game because it creates an inconsistency.

I think these complaints derive from people who suck at the game but need to justify their lack of skill so they pick anything that would give the enemy an advantage in the game. This would, in effect, be the same as the Taliban fighters calling BS because the US was using drones (Ghost). If you do nothing but complain about the perks that are in the game and generally don't like that game based on the perks within the game then by all means, play something else.

just personal opinions more than anything. ghost doesnt bother me but the rc car does for some reason.

Not quite, because the goal for war is not to be balanced.  The US is unbalanced.

It's a load of people wanting everyone to play their way so they don't get shown up. If someone wants to play stealthy in a fast paced game I say let them. Never see these people complain about Cold Blooded either despite that perk being exactly the same as Ghost.

EDIT: Considering the tools you're given as standard (killcam, Blackbird, flashing suspicious rooms etc) and the fact that simple teamwork and communication would negate Ghost users completely I don't see any reason to change the perk. It's people blaming other things instead of admitting that they're just rubbish at playing as a team or even simply telling their team about where a Ghost user is.

Well in their defense. MW2 has loads of more worthy complaint topics.  That's what's funny about how people always complain about one thing.  The one issue they had with the game gets changed but then 2 or 3 more new issues enter.  They don't seem to look more than one step ahead.

Rubbish, I put money there will be complaints about MW3's stealth perk(s) and despite the complainers saying it's about "fairness", that stealth perks are overpowered or whatever the underlying thing they won't admit to is they don't want to be made fools of. The complainers want to be able to use a class that can't be trumped by anything else and want to force everyone else to play the complainer's style of run & gun with little to no regard to the bigger picture in a game. They want every other style to come with big penalties except their style.

Yeah there will be complaints. It's great to make your points known, but you still have to play the game or not. Ghost is not game breaking, nor will stealth perks be in MW3. Treyarch could make 50 different game types, we still would find something wrong.

Ghost is overused but not really over powered. Its can be very annoying and semi game breaking when a whole team is using it and camping. Can't tell you how many lower prestige players use ghost to simply hide in a obscure corner to get cheap kills.

Also for the guy saying no one complained about cold blooded on MW2. The reason there is no complaints is cause Stopping Power was in the same perk slot. Cold blooded made you weaker against enemies who were using stopping power so a lot of people didn't use it. In black ops there is no real perk that that out classes it in the same perk slot which is why it seems to be used by 70% of players. They should of made slight of hand and ghost in the same perk slot and moved other perks around so ghost couldn't of been used with flak jacket. Basically if they just rearranged the slots where about 4 perks are in black ops it would of been evened out.
