On November 1, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 got a fresh update to fix some bugs in multiplayer and Zombies.
For those who love multiplayer, there’s good news. The update stopped the annoying black screen issue when starting a match, and fixed scoring problems in free-for-all by making sure it’s about eliminations, not total points. Plus, they took out the Lowtown map from the Infected playlist.
Omni-movement is getting some tweaks too. Now, you can’t slide too far when planting or defusing bombs in Search & Destroy. But who knows, players will probably find new tricks soon enough.
Oh, and did you know you can earn XP by flashbanging your friends?
Zombies fans, listen up! There was a trick where you could use GobbleGums more than once, but that’s gone now. Also, Tactical Raft won’t let you block zombies anymore. And if you got stuck watching others play after dying, don’t worry—that’s fixed too.
To dive into all the changes, check out the full patch notes from Activision. For more fun, watch The Replacer on Jeopardy in a quirky Black Ops 6 promo video.
