If you just turned on your console, you might have noticed a new Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 game settings update has been rolled out, and as far as we know, it’s for double tier progress for mulitplayer and Blackout!

Aside from that, there’s a bunch of fixes that’s been rolled out via this server-side update. Check the full list below.

We’ve made the following updates to the game (Global):

General

• All players get 2X Tier Boost in MP and Blackout, plus 2X Nebulium Plasma in Zombies through 10AM PT on Monday, Nov. 12.

Zombies

• Stability
  • Resolved an issue that could cause the game to crash when the player is near the Mystery Box.
  • Resolved an issue that could cause the game to crash when a player dies or leaves the game when using the Staff of Ra Special Weapon in the Chaos Story.
  • Resolved an issue that could cause the game to crash when Zombies attack the player through barricades.
  • Voyage of Despair
    • Resolved an issue that could cause the game to crash when a player leaves the game while using the Svalinn Guard.
  • IX
    • Resolved an issue that could cause the game to crash when a player leaves the game during the Main Quest.
    • Resolved an issue where, if a player left a game while another player was contributing to their challenge, the remaining player would crash when attempting to complete the challenge.
  • Blood of the Dead
    • Resolved two issues that could cause the game to crash when a player fails, bleeds out, or leaves the game during portal events in the Main Quest.

Multiplayer

• Hardcore
  • SMGs now have a one-hit kill potential at close range in Hardcore.
  • Reduced Armor protection so that all weapons will now kill in 2 hits maximum in Hardcore.
  • Hardcore Team Deathmatch and Hardcore Kill Confirmed now allow 2 of the same Specialist per team.
• Miscellaneous
  • Resolved an issue where players would not be kicked for inactivity in round-based game modes if the round ended before the kick timer.

Blackout

• Weapons
  • Paladin HB50
    • Slightly increased damage to reduce headshots required to take out an enemy equipped with Level 3 Armor and 200 Health from a Trauma Kit.
    • Enemies were escaping these fights with 4 Health, so we’re bumping the damage just enough to cover that gap.
• Equipment
  • Concussion Grenade
    • Players can now change stances after being hit with a Concussion Grenade. While players will still be slowed and overall disoriented, they’ll now have new opportunities to get back to the fight.
    • With the removal of the 9-Bang from Blackout, we’ve added a scaled-back white flash screen effect to the Concussion Grenade, and will monitor the performance of these balance changes closely.
• Character Missions
  • Changed the descriptions of Character Mission Items to clarify the unlock requirements per playlist (Solo, Duos, or Quads).

In other Black Ops 4 news, Activision has reported that there are more active player users in Black Ops 4 compared to BO3 in its first week weeks of availability.
