Weapon Specialist Upgrade

The Weapon Specialist Upgrade is a bonus pickup featured in Call of Duty: Ghosts in Chaos Mode that is also purchasable from the Armory. Once picked-up and used, the player will have infinite ammo and will also have increased bullet damage.
The Weapon Specialist Upgrade is incredibly useful to activate when dealing with Barrier Hives, as it can allow users to lay a ton of damage into a hive without wasting ammo, speeding up the process of clearing the Barrier Hive. 
When used, the Weapon Specialist Upgrade, when it expires, will leave a full magazine in whatever weapon the user is currently using when the Weapon Specialist Upgrade expires, regardless of how many bullets were in the weapon when the Weapon Specialist Upgrade was used. This can be manipulated to get free ammo and a free reload. This is especially useful for LMGs, which have lots of ammunition and terribly slow reloads. This can be best exploited by activating the Weapon Specialist Upgrade just as a weapon is on the verge of running out of ammo in a long magazine. The Weapon Specialist Upgrade can make the Weapon Specialist user less dependent on ammo drops from allies. The Weapon Specialist Upgrade is also devastating when used for a semi-automatic shotgun, allowing the user to lay down a tremendous amount of firepower without fear of the magazine running dry.
In addition to increasing bullet damage as well as giving a bottomless clip for a temporary period of time, the Weapon Specialist Upgrade will also temporarily highlight nearby Cryptids. This can be of severe benefit if the user has to find a Leper, as the Leper tends to hide. 
When active, allies that are near the Weapon Specialist Upgrade user will also receive a damage boost, although not as significant as that to the user.
The Weapon Specialist Upgrade can override the player's permanent Feral Instincts if the player using the Upgrade is under the effect of that glitch. In addition to this, should the effects of Feral Instincts run out during the Weapon Specialist Upgrade's duration, the player will lose the highlighting of Cryptids, even while the Upgrade is still active. 
If a nearby player activates a Weapon Specialist Upgrade while another person is in the process of using their own Weapon Specialist Upgrade, it is possible for the bottomless magazine effect to be overrided during the upgrade duration, forcing the user to reload and waste reserve ammunition. It is also possible that, despite having a bottomless magazine, a weapon that had an empty magazine before the Weapon Specialist Upgrade was activated will still automatically prompt a reload. As such, it is usually best to have at least a couple rounds remaining before activating the Weapon Specialist Upgrade to avoid this.
