J4MES OX4D 10,060 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Does anyone know why theater mode was removed? I had no idea they were omitting it for Ghosts and it's a real shame because I don't have any capture hardware and it's made looking out for hackers pretty tricky. I'm on PC so I usually swear by such a function. Also why hasn't Elite been updated - have they canned that also? I'm not too bothered about this but it just seems along with theater, a step backwards from what we've seen in recent years.

BO7H B4RRELS 2,453 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Elite isn't being used with Ghosts. There's a new app specifically for Ghosts. I'm not sure of the reasons for Theater mode, but a lot of people seem to think it was some of the reason for all the lag in the past few games.

L_C_Scipio 395 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Theater caused lag, plus both next gen consoles have built-in recording capabilities so it wasn't really needed any more.

BO7H B4RRELS 2,453 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Theater caused lag... Was that ever actually confirmed or admitted to? I've only heard speculation.

J4MES OX4D 10,060 Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 Was that ever actually confirmed or admitted to? I've only heard speculation. I don't think it was ever confirmed and in all honesty I can't see that being the reason as the host is the only person affected as his data is being captured yet how many hosts had advantage... I can see general server storage being an issue and perhaps a reason for it being removed - everyone had about 100 matches at a time stored and if 10 million played in a day; that's a whole lot of data to retain.

Just Cal 461 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 They'll never confirm it but look at ghosts. The only lag present is when it's a bad host. Black ops 1 was when lag started being a nuisance. Wasn't too bad but all games after were terrible. Now it's gone and everything runs smooth. Sure in mw3, they had the option to turn of recording and it always helped me with connection.

Cassidy 51 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 It's because this game was pretty much made for next-gen consoles. Kind of sucks, because I've gotten some pretty insane sniper kills in the past few days that I wish I could have kept.

TigerBurge 2,375 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 If the game runs better without theater in,if it was the problem,then keep it out.
