Issue with campaign crashing after each mission
{{Fixbox|1=
Template:Fixbox/fix
- This problem occurs after each campaign mission is completed before the Career Record is displayed. It may also crash the game when viewing the campaign Career Record outside of mission completion. This normally occurs if you have more than 60 friends on Steam.
Solution :
Sign out of Steam Friends, play the campaign in Steam Offline Mode or remove contacts from Steam Friends so that you have less than 60.
Zombies leaderboard crash
- Crash whenever leaderboard is loaded in Zombies mode.
