Thanks to everyone for the feedback and support on our new Heavy Metal Heroes limited-time mode! We’ve gotten tons of requests to keep it running since it launched across all platforms, so it’s staying in the Featured Playlist slot in Blackout for the near future. The community clips we’ve seen from this LTM have been insane so far, and we’re looking forward to seeing plenty more this week.

Deathmatch Domination returns to Multiplayer on all platforms today, where players contribute to their team’s score through a combination of captures and kills. Party Game Moshpit is also going back in rotation, featuring every Black Ops 4 party game in a single playlist: Prop Hunt, Sticks and Stones, One in the Chamber, Gun Game, and Infected.

“Tag der Toten” Stability Improvements

We’re also including additional stability fixes for “Tag der Toten” in today’s update, including a fix for a crash that could occur when repeatedly using Samantha’s Music Box, one that could happen when a player left the game while another player accessed the “secret” area, and another rare one that could happen when swapping weapons after using the Wunderwaffe DG Scharfschütze. See below for the full list of improvements.

Tracking Ongoing Issues

The team continues to hunt down the underlying cause behind a bug that can prevent Weapon Charms and Death Effects from staying equipped after a match. Thanks in part to some additional data from the community, we’re hoping to reliably reproduce this issue soon so we can finally squash it.

In Zombies, we’re continuing to test variables that can lead to an error for some players after watching the outro cutscene in “Tag der Toten”. This one has proven tricky to reproduce 100% of the time, so it’s taken more time to nail down than other stability issues that have popped up in the live environment since launch. We’re on the case!

“The Numbers” outfit for Zero also currently appears missing for players who have previously unlocked it, and we’re planning a fix to restore the outfit in a future code update later in this Operation. Thanks for your patience, and stay tuned.

In our next major code update later in the Operation, we're planning some additional weapon tuning, changes to Reaper's Scythe, and a fix for the Hellion Salvo to properly unlock its Diamond Camo in Zombies. These aren't things we can change in Game Settings Updates on any given day -- look for all the details for everyone when we get closer to these changes going live.

See below for what’s new in today's update:

Can you guys please look into nerfing the scythe? It's currently the most broken specialist weapon without a doubt

Scythe adjustments are planned for our next code update in the Operation -- see above for details.

Hi, Are you still tracking the issue regarding the dark matter issue and the salvo not unlocking diamond camo on zombies...

Yes, this is planned to be fixed in the next major code update later in the Operation. Added this to the post above.

Can we get some changes to daily contracts in zombies? I don't think I've ever seen Alpha Omega as a daily, nor tag der toten. This is especially frustrating when you want to play the newly released content, but the daily keeps cycling between dead of the night and ancient evil. Please add Tag Der Toten and Alpha to the daily contracts rotation, and give us some tag der toten contracts so we can binge on the new map all day instead of having to swap to another map to do the daily!

Thanks for the fixes!

Good news: We're aiming to get Alpha Omega and Tag der Toten into the Daily Contract pool later this week!
