Onslaught y nueva actualización con modos de juego para Call of Duty: Ghosts

Hoy es el día en el que el nuevo contenido Onslaught ve la luz, primero en XBOX One, pero también, Infinity Ward ha anunciado una nueva actualización para Call of Duty: Ghosts, que verá la luz hoy, y que incluye dos modos de juego nuevos.

Aunque la actualización que Infinity Ward va a ver la luz en todas las plataformas, hoy es el día en el que uno de los contenidos exclusivos temporalmente para XBOX One, verá la luz. Hoy será puesto a disposición de los usuarios el DLC Onslaught, del que tanto hemos hablado días atrás. Pese a esta importante aportación a Call of Duty: Ghosts, que muchos usuarios estarán deseando jugar, han de saber, que hoy también se va a lanzar una nueva actualización.

Según ha descrito Infinity Ward en un comunicado, la base de esta actualización es corregir ciertos reportes recibidos por parte de la comunidad, remitiendo a varios errores puntuales de los últimos meses. Al ver la lista de correcciones, que resulta muy extensa, podemos resumir en varios aspectos muy importantes, como es mejorar el sistema anti-trucos y la seguridad del juego y los servidores, así como otros ajustes para mejorar los aspectos de eSports.

A su vez, existirán algunas correcciones específicas de cada una de las plataformas, y en lo que respecta a XBOX One, las correcciones incluidas en esta actualización hacen referencia a mejoras en los comandos de voz de Kinect, dar solución a los conflictos surgidos con nombres de usuario demasiado largos y una corrección dirigida a la pérdida de rendimiento del juego cuando un invitado se desloguea de una partida a pantalla partida.

Pero lo más destacable de esta actualización es la inclusión de dos nuevos modos de juego, Gun Game y FFA Hunted. Aunque estos no serán añadidos a los ya existentes, ya que Gun Game sustituirá a Heavy Duty, este permitirá competir en una batalla campal donde todos iniciarán la acción con una pistola e irán adquiriendo nuevo armamento con el paso del tiempo.

A continuación, os dejamos con todos los detalles de la actualización extraída de la web oficial.
