1.18 Update

Our 1.18 update is now live on PC, including Contracts in all modes, Hacienda Twilight in MP rotation, Medals and Humiliations in Blackout, additional Prop Hunt and Capture the Flag maps, weapon tuning updates, a fix for MKII Weapon progression, and more. Check out the patch notes below for the details.

Quickplay Playlists

To help reduce wait times on PC, we’ve also added the new Quickplay playlist to Multiplayer and Blackout. This playlist will place players into any lobby that is closest to being full, so you’ll be able to jump into a new match as quickly as possible.

Weapon Tuning

In addition to tuning changes to the MOG 12, Daemon 3XB, and Switchblade X9 this week, we’ve made a PC-specific tuning change to the Vendetta sniper rifle’s headshot damage multiplier. With this update, headshots with the Vendetta will no longer kill targets in one shot on PC.

Here’s what’s new in today...

PC players: We have a game update going live today 10/19 at 10am PT. Its main purpose has been to address stability issues across the platform, and the micro-stutter issues that some of you experienced. We’ll be watching very closely to confirm that many of the key issues raised loud and clear across our social platforms are working as planned for our community. It’s all part of the ongoing commitment to ensuring Call of Duty Black Ops 4 is the best PC experience possible.

It also contains updates and fixes on the PC to issues across the specific game modes, all detailed below. Of course, there will be more to come addressing other issues in the coming days.

Continue to follow Treyarch and TreyarchPC on Twitter for further updates and news on the tweaks we’ve made to improve each game mode in a variety of ways.

Also, kicking off at 10am PT it’s 2x XP time for Multiplayer mode and 2x NP for Zombies fans. This bonus runs through Monday October 22nd at 10am PT...
