The Tank Upgrade is a bonus pickup in Call of Duty: Ghosts in Chaos Mode, as well as a class upgrade that can be purchased for use in regular missions. Once picked-up and/or used, the player will become invincible for up to fifteen seconds (up to ten seconds outside of Chaos Mode). While the upgrade is active, all cryptids will redirect their focus to attack the player. While the upgrade is active, the player is able to stun cryptids with melee attacks. When active, the player's screen will be gray. Other players can see when someone else is using the upgrade as four red lines will constantly be pulsing around the player.
This upgrade essentially turns the Tank player into a human Flare, fully diverting the attention of cryptids. The Tank upgrade is great to use in a pinch or when tackling tons of enemies that are within striking distance of the user. The upgrade can also be used when teammates are in trouble, diverting attention off of them and allowing them to perform their job more effectively. It can be perfect for when an ally needs a moment to retrieve something or fix the Laser Drill.
The Tank Upgrade will not stop players from taking damage from falling off of the map, as this is an instakill. This will still cause the player to immediately bleed out and need to be revived from their Dog Tags, or in solo play, this will still count as a down and cost the player one of their lives. The Tank Upgrade will also not fully prevent Scorpion and Seeder acid. The Tank Upgrade will prevent damage from being applied, but the slow down will still apply. The Tank Upgrade will also not prevent being flinched when taking self-damage from flame pools and traps, but no damage is being applied when the upgrade is active.
