Reaver C86 Weapon & Missing Item Patch

Today’s game settings update delivers a new round of tuning changes to the Reaver C86 crossbow in MP and Blackout, and should restore items that may have recently appeared missing in some players’ inventories, including the Rising Tide melee weapon. These changes are now live on all platforms.

In Multiplayer, Reaver C86 users will need to work harder to earn those EKIAs as we’ve further reduced hip-fire accuracy, lowered the fire speed between bursts, reduced the Titanium Bolt attachment’s bonus projectile speed, and reduced the base ammo count from 6 down to 2. Scavenger just became your new best friend.

We’ve similarly reduced the hip-fire accuracy and fire speed between bursts for the Reaver C86 in Blackout. Reaver users can only get access to the base version of the weapon without attachments in Blackout, so you’ll need to time your shots perfectly to take down your opponents from here on out.

August 14th Zombies Weapon Tuning Reverted

Last week, we listed a series of weapon tuning changes for the S6 Stingray and Reaver C86 across all modes. Zombies players will be happy to know that the decision was made to not include those changes in Zombies before the patch went live, and this unfortunately was incorrectly reflected in the patch notes. This came down to a simple case of internal miscommunication on our end – apologies for any confusion that this may have caused.

The good news: these tuning changes were never implemented in Zombies, and the S6 Stingray and Reaver C86 are just as effective against the undead as they were before August 14th! Likewise, we aren’t implementing today’s adjustments to the Reaver C86 in Zombies.

(Note: There is currently a bug in the Zombies Armory that incorrectly shows 2 bolts as the default ammo count for the Reaver C86 in Zombies. The in-game ammo count is correct, with players starting with 6 bolts per mag as intended.)

As always, thanks for your continued feedback – here are the details on today’s changes:
