So I bought and downloaded CoD: Ghosts for PC the other day. By Cheesus, I don't think I've seen a bigger trainwreck of a game.
It straight up doesn't work with SLI/Crossfire systems. You have make a profile that will disable SLI/Crossfire for Ghosts otherwise the game barely runs. Anything that runs an overlay (Teamspeak. Overwolf, Steam etc.) can cause the game to chug and you have to disable the overlay. Its detection and automatic settings are poor and you have to manually set anything to get decent performance - even the size of your screen.
After all that is said and done; it still plays like crap. It was obviously designed to be played on controller - many functions are unbound on the PC when you first start!
Even when you finally get the game to work, it crashes all the time - I've owned it since Monday and I still haven't been able to beat the first actual mission because of all the crashes. Multiplayer is slightly better but still crashes often. but at least you can play a few rounds.
From what I have played; maps are better designed and could be fun. But spawning is still a complete mess. Haven't gotten enough rounds with different weapons to determine balance though.
Seriously though; how do they get away with releasing something in this poor a state? PC might no be their biggest market but if this is a consistent thing with CoD PC releases they should've been sued by now.
