Comments

A new update is out now for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and while it doesn't contain any weapon buffs or nerfs, the patch makes a few changes related to spawning, perks, and the Zombies mode. [Update: A new set of Cold War patch notes are now available for November 24's update.]

For multiplayer, spawns have been adjusted for the Hardpoint mode to reduce the amount of time it takes to reach the Hardpoints. Additionally, the spawns on Crossroads Strike and Armada Strike have been adjusted for better performance.

The new Black Ops Cold War update also fixes an issue that could stop the Flak Jacket perk from being useful against explosive damage in Hardcore modes.

Moving to Zombies, the new update fixes an issue with field upgrades, while it makes some changes to the zombies themselves. In one case, a rare issue was causing a zombie to become permanently invincible, but that is now fixed. Finally, the Zombies mode has received some tweaks to make the experience more stable.

You can see the full patch notes below, as posted by Treyarch on their website. This newest update arrives less than a day before the fan-favorite Nuketown map comes to Black Ops Cold War through a new version called Nuketown '84. The map arrives at 10 AM PT on November 24, but you can start enjoying double XP right now.
