Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 – August 9th Update

Keshav Bhat

Treyarch has released a new Game Settings Update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Today’s updates include Pandemic updates, sliding adjustments, and more.

Here’s the details:

Pandemic Updates, Sliding Adjustments, and Zombies Weapon Tuning

In today’s maintenance update, we’ve made new adjustments to Pandemic thanks in part to community feedback and internal data. Zombies will now respawn faster and have more of a fighting chance against the living, and all surviving squads will now properly see the Victory screen if they make it to the end of the match.

In MP, we’ve begun rolling out updates to restore the original slide velocity for all Specialists, with corrections for Battery, Crash, Firebreak, Prophet, Recon, Ruin, Zero, Torque, Nomad, and Spectre now live. Due to technical limitations, adjustments for Seraph, Ajax, Outrider, and Reaper will be incoming in an update next week.

In Zombies, we’ve increased the headshot damage for fully Pack-a-Punched versions of the Vapr-XKG, Swordfish, and Havelina AA50 with High Caliber equipped. See below for the full list of changes.CWL Champs is Almost Here!

The biggest Call of Duty World League event of the year kicks off on August 14, with the world’s best pro teams battling it out for the 2019 season championship in Los Angeles. Watch all the action in the in-game live event viewer on PS4 and at Twitch.tv/CallofDuty.
