Call of Duty: Ghosts dev teases 'Squads' mode

4.5
Infinity Ward executive producer Mark Rubin has taken a tip from Battlefield's Twitter strategy and released a short grainy video teasing a new feature in Call of Duty: Ghosts.

The six-second teaser clip appears to show a menu screen that looks much like a menu of the Call of Duty series, and clearly shows a 'Squads' menu screen.

There are two visible sub-menu options on the screen, one a simple 'Options' and the other reading 'Online Play'. A third option is blurred out.

The developer is yet to reveal a co-op mode for Ghosts, and 'Squads' could be the replacement to the Modern Warfare series' Spec-Ops mode, which allowed two players to co-operate in small sub-missions.

Infinity Ward studio community coordinator Candice Capen has previously told fans that Ghosts will "have a cooperative mode of sort" after rumours that the long-standing Spec-Ops mode had been scrapped.

While no further information was teased today, the appearance of a Squads mode would suggest co-operative gameplay in similar manner to Spec-Ops mode but with more than two players.

Rubin said in July that CoD fans should look forward to a multiplayer reveal in "mid-August" - suggesting a possible Gamescom reveal - when we will likely hear more on Squads as well as competitive multiplayer.

I watched the video, and the menu did look pretty cool. It reminded me of Halo's with the debris in space floating around. I have no idea what squads could be though. I just hope it's at least somewhat entertaining. Either way, I am eager to see it.

AGR So they are realising that battlefield is better and starting to copy it. GG Infinity Ward, GG


i sense someone was dropped on their head as a child... if you like battlefield so much, why are you even reading this. and call of duty copied battlefield? please tell me how so, bc they used the word squad? rlly? cod5 you could be put in squads. why didnt you say they copied them there. or should i say battlefield copied call of duty since call of duty is older. so technically battlefield copied everything. [yes ik that im being stupid with that last comment but it is say as you stated]


LOL COD is older... really? maybe you should google that buddy. And no not because they used the word "squad" because BC2 had a game mode called onslaught google that while your at it.


Battlefield 1942 - Published in 2002
Call of Duty 1 - Published in 2003

He's right. Battlefield was released before Call of Duty. You should have done your research before commenting something like that.
