Call of Duty: Ghosts Xbox One update released, adds "hardcore" option

4.8
What with all the upset over Battlefield 4, it's easy to forget that the latest incarnation of the franchise's ancient rival could do with a bit of a tune-up, too. Activision has released a new patch for Call of Duty: Ghosts on Xbox One, which purports to fix a number of crash and networking bugs, and also adds a "hardcore" option to the Domination leaderboards.

The full change notes are below. A few of the fixes also apply to the latest Call of Duty: Ghosts update for Xbox 360. Are you playing Ghosts at the mo? How are you getting on?

I hope to see more gamemodes in the future, at this point it is a bit sparse

CommanderPig If cod got dedicated servers it would cost so much money.


They make so much money already I'm sure they could afford some dedicated servers.

No tried multi-player yet but finished the campaign last night. Enjoyed it, Riley was a nice addition, later on there was a definite nod to Modern Warfare with a Riley focussed Mission that I appreciated. For all the stick it received over the next-gen 'fishes' I thought the underwater mission was pretty cool and had a very 'James Bond' feel to it... as did the Moonraker-eque space battle towards the end.

My only gripe is that there doesn't seem to be the same level of challenge as there used to be. I always play on Veteran (for the Achievements) and apart from maybe one section I pretty much sailed through the whole campaign. Compare that with Call of Duty 2 where I nearly smashed my controller to pieces at several points... So either I'm getting better at gaming, getting too familiar with how a Call of Duty game plays out or they're dumbing down the combat...

Wisc i agree they need to have all the bugs fixed, but i just get so frustrated when i die around a corner and im not even lagging.


They need to implement dedicated servers, it would really improve the game.


Yeah that's what they need. Most games have dedicated serves, don't know what CoD doesn't.

"Fixed a variety of map specific spawn issues."

There is no way they fixed this, if anything the spawns are worse if not the same as before.

You can't really fix the spawns that much though, seeing as Ghosts isn't a 3 lane shooter like previous CoD's.
