Ballistics Changes and Weapon Tuning in MP

We’ve made new weapon tuning changes with this update as part of our efforts to constantly improve the Multiplayer experience. To help make SMGs and pistols more competitive against assault rifles, we’ve changed their ballistic profiles to the more traditional hitscan model. This means bullets from SMGs and pistols should now hit their targets faster and with higher accuracy, without having to lead the target to account for bullet travel time in MP. While we’re satisfied with the balance in popularity of each of the weapons in all classes, we want to ensure SMG and pistol players can go toe-to-toe with AR users at multiple ranges as the meta evolves.

 

We’ve also simultaneously tuned down the damage ranges for the Daemon 3XB and Switchblade X9, added a third extra magazine for the Daemon 3XB, and reduced the Operator Mod damage on the MOG 12 shotgun to reduce long-range one-shot kills. This should bring more balance to the SMG class, and encourage MOG 12 users to really earn those Dragon Breath EKIAs. Check out our patch notes below for all the details.

 

Hacienda Twilight Now in Rotation

We’re bringing a fresh twist to one of our outdoor-focused maps in Hacienda Twilight, now joining the Multiplayer map rotation. Unlike previous alternate-lighting environments, this map’s moon-bathed exterior is brighter than its interior. With blazing fires, structural changes, and other new surprises to be discovered throughout the estate, you might want to get your bearings in a Custom Game before jumping into a public match with this one. Let us know your thoughts on Hacienda Twilight after you’ve put in some playtime, as we’re always taking community feedback and voting data under consideration when crafting new map variants.

More Maps in Prop Hunt and Capture the Flag + MKII Leveling Fix

Prop Hunt gets bigger this week with the addition of Morocco and Summit to rotation, and we’ve added Frequency and Jungle to the Capture the Flag map pool for more varied matches. We’ve also made some improvements to Prop Hunt, including a fix for props being able to get under the map and a particularly peculiar issue where players could spawn inside of other players. MKII Weapon level progression has also been fixed in this update, allowing attachments and weapon camos to progress again as intended.

 

Medals, Equipment, New Death Effect, Humiliations + More in Blackout

Medals are now awarded in Blackout for completing certain actions in a match, including reviving and assisting teammates, eliminating a Duo or Quad, taking down zombies, scoring a multikill, and much more. You’ll earn Merits for every Medal you earn, so show us what you’ve got and rank up even faster.

We’re always evaluating the next piece of weaponry to keep the Blackout meta fresh, and after internal playtesting and some core tuning changes, we’re introducing the Sentry as the newest addition to the mode. To keep it balanced for Battle Royale, the Blackout version of the Sentry deals lower damage compared to its MP counterpart, and serves as more of an alert system and a nuisance to your enemies. The Sentry can only be found in Stashes and Supply Drops, so keep an eye out for your chance to grab one and hold onto an EMP or two to disable enemy turrets.

 

As an additional reward for completing an Outfit Mission in Blackout, we’ve added the new “Numbers” Death Effect for use in multiple modes. Simply complete any Specialist’s Outfit Mission to unlock a Blackout-themed effect for your weapons in Create-a-Class and the Armory. If you’ve already completed an Outfit Mission, you’ll see your new Death Effect waiting for you in your inventory.

 

Next up, Blackjack’s Stash is a new feature that we’re introducing in limited-time modes only (not in core competitive Solo, Duos, or Quads matches) first on PS4. You’ll be able to unlock one of these rare new Stashes per match if you find one, and it will contain Black Market weapons that you currently have in your collection. For example, if you’ve earned the Vendetta sniper rifle in the Operation Spectre Rising Contraband stream, it will be available for you to equip from Blackjack’s Stash during a match in a limited-time mode. Additionally, all players will be able to expand their access to more Black Market weapons as Ultra Weapon Bribes become available in the Contraband stream starting next week, and in future Operations.

 

Lastly, Humiliations have arrived in Blackout’s redeploy modes and in Multiplayer’s Heist. First introduced in our Bounty Hunter LTM earlier this Operation, Humiliations are epic finishing moves that take out enemies in style when they’re downed. Check them out this week in Alcatraz and Hot Pursuit, and we’ll plan on adding more Humiliations during our next Operation in July.

Introducing Hard Mode Gauntlets in Zombies on PS4

If you thought our first series of Zombies Gauntlets weren’t enough of a challenge, good luck against our new Hard Mode “Unsinkable” Gauntlet today on PS4! Hard Mode Gauntlets will push your zombie-killing skills to the brink for 2X Nebulium Plasma rewards, along with Hard Mode-exclusive Medals and Calling Cards for your efforts. Who will be the world’s first to complete a perfect run?

Zombies DLC 3 Approaches…

With our next Operation just around the corner, we’ve been dying to share more about the Aether story’s return… so let’s break the silence, shall we?

 

The next chapter in the Black Ops 4 Zombies saga launches July 9th on PS4, and follows the canonical events of Blood of the Dead and Classified. We’ll have more intel to share this week as we get closer to the beginning of our fifth Operation, when the influence of the undead threatens to spill over into some… unfamiliar territory.

 

But, perhaps we’ve said too much. As they say, “a little learning is a dangerous thing…”
