  • Cool. I'm glad XP increased in some things, but they should just double the kill XP because this is so frustrating. I'm actually quite good at this game, but after 20 matches, I finally level up. Fix please! Oh and I just picked up an Xbox One so I expect this game to be a little better on there.
  • Wasent search and destroy in last weeks?
  • the whole games a patch.
  • Glad I didn't get the game off the bat then..holy hell that's a big patch, but I give them credit for trying
  • "Spawn logic improvement." God damn do I hope it's actually improved. Nice to see they finally (tried) fixing it though.
  • Awesome, the only thing i dont see here is "fixed an issue where you die way to f***ing fast to figure out how it happened" but im getting online righr now anyway to see what this update actually does.
  • Still sucks
  • So this appears to be a MP only type of patch. The single player can't be any worse then bf4's.
  • see that small list of patches? i knew this game wasn't broke lol *sarcasm
  • OMFG! Are they saying that the multi player might actually be playable now?!?!
  • Spawns are apparently still quite shite
  • Spawns are still terrible.
  • Sure, multiplayer sounds improved but is it? Reason I'm asking is because I was playing earlier and the dogs still seem to be over powered. It shouldn't take a whole clip from an assault rifle to kill a dog nor four rounds from a shot gun. Also to be more fair, you should have a action to knife the dog when pounced by one.
  • @15 stop trolling that shit on here nobody gives a damn. Can we have our support team remove this bullshit because I'm tired of seeing it on here when I'm looking for opinions from other players on game related topics, Thanks.
  • Sucks the achievement didn't roll over the Xbox one version. Got all of them in the 360 and now I gotta start all over. At least my ranks are the same on multiplayer and extinction.
  • @18 Yeah but you can earn every achievement twice, one for the 360 version and one for the One version. So basically double the gamerscore :).
  • I’ve made $64,000 so far this year working online and I’m a full time student. Im using an online business opportunity I heard about and I’ve made such great money. It’s really user friendly and I’m just so happy that I found out about it. Heres what I do……………… W­W­W­.Wow40.­ℂ­ℴ­m
