Join Soap to pump the water out of the area to save the day. Completing tasks that are refreshed daily with reward you either Normal Pumps or Strengthen Pumps. These tasks will be challenges for you to complete in both MP and BR games modes.
General tasks will reward you with Normal Pumps, while the more difficult special tasks will earn you Strengthened Pumps, which will pump more water out of the area. Use these to pump water out of the area and into a container that will fill up. Filling this container will earn you rewards including the Epic ICR-1 – Starmap, as well as Soap – Vacay Ready.

BR Prop Hunt
Live now and running through the 16th, BR Prop Hunt is here! Drop into Isolated and either blend in to the environment as a prop or search the battleground for any out-of-place objects (or running trees) as a Hunter. Players will begin the match as a random prop on a section of the Isolated BR Map, if you want to change back into your preferred operator search for the Golden ID Card which will transform you back into your CODM Operator as a Hunter.
As a Hunter, you’ll accumulate energy which you can then use to see what props you are around. As the game progresses seeing the props will become easier and easier, which means if you’re a prop you better have found a good spot by then, or you better be ready to have a chase. Luckily as a prop, you can do more than just hide, you can jump great distances, go invisible, change your prop type, and blind your hunters with a flash. Good luck out there to props and Hunters alike!
Seasonal Challenges
Stormin’ Battle Royale

In addition to the three unique death effects, Oden – Divine Smite (like our other Mythic weapons) comes with unique muzzle flashes and unique attachments to mold the gun in whichever way fits your playing style.

Bugs
Lag/Network Issues – The team is investigating new lag issues some players have been experiencing since the S5 launch. If you are having trouble loading into a match, can you please provide your region and network provider in the comments below? That info will be super helpful for the team investigating this issue
Invisible Operators – At the start of the season there was an operator who when equipped would cause the player to be invisible. This issue has been resolved.
Button Issues – We’ve been seeing players report that since the Season 5 update they have been having issues with buttons (specifically on the right side of their screen) being unresponsive. The team is aware of this issue and working on a fix.
ADS Issues – In BR TPP the legendary ICR-1 – Sabre Blade wasn’t zooming in while ADS. This issue should now be resolved.
Completionist Camos – We’ve been seeing reports of players having some issues with Completionist Camos, specifically related to the new functional weapon the Oden. The team is aware of this issue and working on a fix.
Performance Issues – Since the start of the season we have seen a variety of reports around players facing performance issues when using the Oden with specific ammo equipped or when shooting surfaced areas. The team is aware of this and working on a fix.
Feedback
Tournament Mode – Since the launch of Tournament mode, there has been a ton of feedback from you all. As always this is much appreciated and gives us the opportunity to tweak the mode based on what you all are saying! In the last Community Update, we touched on some changes, but we wanted to give you some more details on adjustments we have made this week.
- Adding Tournament Camos to Blueprints – This is something that we see the community ask for consistently, which we understand because it would look so cool. A major factor when it comes to adding camos like these over a blueprint is that it sometimes directly conflicts with the blueprint’s original special effects. This conflict would cause larger performance issues in the game itself, so it takes some time to optimize this feature. However, it is something that we are working on implementing into the game!
- Duplicate Camos – In Season 1 of this mode, there was an issue where players would receive a duplicate camo without getting any kind of dupe protection reward. Players who received any camo of this nature will receive a replacement camo crate in their inbox. Starting in Season 2, when players get a duplicate camo, they will receive another camo crate.
- Rewards – Players will now receive immediate rewards when purchasing a premium milestone. And crate coupons (which are usable on any crate) replaced some specific crates as rewards.
MP Lobby – In our Season 5 blog we mentioned that this season there would be a new background for the MP lobby. This was an error, but it is still coming in a future update. However, it is tied to a specific new map, which is meant to come out in a future season.
