Call of Duty: Ghosts won’t have in-game livestreaming or theater mode

4.6
Call of Duty: Ghosts won’t feature the in-game live streaming feature like how Call of Duty: Black Ops II did. And in the same interview Daniel Suarez, vice president of production at Activision, confirmed that Theater mode is not returning either.

“We’re continuing the work that [Treyarch] did, eSports is a big initiative for us,” Daniel told me at the Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer reveal. He added that they’re going to continue supporting the community as much as they can with these features. That said, there is one big feature that won’t be included in Ghosts.

“So not all the feature sets that we had in Black Ops II will transfer over. So for example the streaming from the game feature we won’t actually be doing this year. The way that it worked inBlack Ops II is you had a certain resolution that you could output out. We didn’t really see the community adopting that so we’ve taken that feature out in Ghosts.” To that end, Theater Mode will also not be returning for Ghosts.

However, if you play on PS4 or Xbox One you will be able to live stream directly from the console – as the next-gen console has those features built in. And, they next gen consoles will also have the ability to record and share gameplay’s.

LWT so the console does it, so they took the feature out of the game.
That is a very good point, I have never thought of it in that way. Although we can record it with our Xbox One, we can't share it in a common place like COD TV.

kind of need to keep theater mode

It is a shame that there will no longer be theatre mode as my internet speeds are too bad to livestream. Nevertheless, this will be very useful to those who actively livestream and do game commentaries.

Why would they take one of the most used things out of the game? ''Referring to theater mode''

slapshot101 This is true that most people did not use the Livestream feature on BO2 but many people use the Theater from all the way back to BO1, I think one reason they might have taken it out because it has been used to do mods like XP in BO1, Theater mods in MW3 and Master Prestige in BO2.


Live streaming was really bad quality too on BO2.


Yeah, was a pointless feature because it looked really bad


I used it and the quality was good? I'm kind of upset now.
