Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Update Addresses Player Feedback and Implements Numerous Fixes

Treyarch has released a new update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, directly addressing player concerns regarding recent changes to the Zombies Directed Mode. Following community feedback, the controversial zombie spawn delay adjustment has been reverted. This means the spawn delay after five looped rounds will return to its previous approximate 20-second maximum.

This update also includes several significant improvements:

• Zombies Directed Mode Fixes: Numerous bug fixes have been implemented in Citadelle des Morts' Directed Mode, ensuring smoother quest progression and eliminating glitches related to stamps. Issues with visual effects and crashes linked to the Void Sheath Augment for Aether Shroud have also been resolved.

• Shadow Rift Ammo Mod Buffs: The Shadow Rift Ammo Mod receives substantial buffs, increasing activation rates for normal, special, and elite enemies (with the Big Game Augment). The cooldown timer has also been reduced by 25%.

• General Improvements: The update includes various stability fixes across the game, addresses visual issues in the Events tab, and corrects audio problems with in-game event milestone banners. Multiplayer mode, Red Light, Green Light, now awards increased XP from match bonuses.

Treyarch's commitment to player experience is highlighted in their official patch notes. They acknowledge that the initial Directed Mode changes were not well-received and have prioritized reverting them to maintain a fun and rewarding zombie experience. The developers also addressed the unintended consequences of previous adjustments to the Shadow Rift Ammo Mod and Big Game Augment.

Looking Ahead:

More bug fixes and adjustments are planned for the upcoming Black Ops 6 Season 2 update, launching on January 28th. Players are encouraged to complete the Citadelle des Morts main quest before the end of Season 1 Reloaded to earn available rewards.

Key Changes Summarized:

• Reverted Zombie Spawn Delay: Directed Mode's extended round times and spawn delays have been removed.
• Shadow Rift Buffs: Significant improvements to activation rates and cooldown.
• Citadelle des Morts Fixes: Resolved crashes and visual glitches.
• General Stability and Bug Fixes: Across Multiplayer and Zombies modes.
