Black Ops 4 Delivers Big Zombie Mode Update
Treyarch has been very busy since the launch of Call of Duty Black Ops 4. Mainly because between all the multiplayer modes that they have, there’s a lot of bugs and balances that need to be fixed and updated. In regards to one mode in particular however, things truly needed a change, so Treyarch made that a really big update in weekly patches. On Reddit, they broke it down, and it revealed some very interesting things.
As noted, the Zombie Mode had a major focus in this update:
For our Zombies players, we’re delivering 70+ crash fixes and gameplay improvements today, making this stability pass even bigger than last week’s major update. See below for the full list, including fixes for crashes and bugs across all four maps, UI improvements, and more. As we continue to identify and address more specific Zombies gameplay scenarios that could cause the game to crash, our primary focus is now on taking care of the remaining stability issues in high-round play. We have bolstered our ability to research and investigate these issues, and have several fixes in the works that will be rolled out in the near future.
Here are some examples of the fixes done to Black Ops 4’s Zombie Mode:
Gameplay
- Global – Resolved issues where:
- Text for XP earned from each challenge tier was missing from the After Action Report.
- The player could be permanently stuck when grabbed by the Blightfather’s tongue.
- Concoctions UI remained on screen when switching from the Laboratory to the Identity screen.
- UI incorrectly indicated to the player that Prestige unlock tokens could be spent on permanently unlocking Custom Class slots.
- If a Prestige Master player did not gain any XP during a match (by launching the game and immediately quitting, for example), the displayed ranks would be incorrect, the XP bar would be completely filled, and there would be no indication of how much XP was required until the next level.
There’s a lot more where that came from, so check out the full patch notes to see all that has been done.
