This week, the Call of Duty Season 4 update for Black Ops 6 and Warzone brought significant changes, although players quickly noted an issue where multiplayer lobbies were not displaying player levels and corresponding icons. Initially, there was speculation that this might be an intentional move by Activision to discourage players from quitting matches against higher-ranked opponents. However, Activision’s Call of Duty Updates account confirmed that the problem is, in fact, a bug, and they are currently investigating the matter. “Thank you for your reports! We are actively investigating this issue,” the developer stated on their Trello board.
In addition to this issue, there are various other known bugs affecting Black Ops 6 multiplayer. Theater mode has been temporarily disabled due to problems with loading replays, some lobbies incorrectly display platform icons next to player names, and the Winner’s Circle feature fails to appear in certain scenarios on the map Stakeout. Players have also reported a bug where calling in a Dreadnought may leave them stuck, unable to crouch or slide.
On a brighter note, this update introduces exciting content, including new maps and weapons, as detailed in GameSpot’s season rundown. The Zombies mode has received a notable enhancement with the launch of the Grief mode. Warzone is also seeing a range of updates, improving the overall gameplay experience.
Moreover, fans of Black Ops 6 have an enticing new addition: the notorious riot shield is now part of a finishing move. Additionally, a crossover store bundle featuring John Wick / Ballerina is set to be released soon, hinting at more engaging content ahead.
For Xbox players interested in trying out the new Season 4 features, the multiplayer mode is currently available for free, making this an excellent opportunity to explore the latest offerings in the game. This season has the potential to enhance player experience with a mix of new content and resolutions to existing issues.
