Good job!

Hey there! We can certainly note the feedback, but we don't have any timelines to share as to when to expect the next map pool update. The most recent change came from several reports collected over the past few months regarding requests for the most recent update. Sharing map pool requests is totally okay, but a single Reddit petition didn't cause the change. So while we expect that understanding is already known, we wanted to share it with all passersby.

Make sure you're staying within this subreddit's guidelines regarding frequency and such. :)

Armada Strike and Satellite are back. We have technical limitations as to how many maps we can have in a playlist at a time so we've removed Deprogram and Amerika as they were least played. This is also why Armada Strike and Satellite were removed from 6v6 the first time. The conspiracy theories people come up with... 😅

We appreciate your dedication to fair gameplay, but Reddit is not the place to report or debate with peers regarding cheating accusations. Please report in-game and our teams will investigate.

Hey OP! It's been about 9H since you created your post. Have you been able to jump back in?

Watching it back a few times and I have to agree with our peers here that you're rushing quite often. It may be a result of you knowing that you're fighting bots, but I'd like to see you clear rooms while being mindful of the fatal funnel. You can absolutely rush in BOCW, we love movement, but being mindful of those sightlines will help.

I also see the Discord overlay. Embrace KBM if you can!

Hello!

Correct that there are no tangible updates. Players should not expect any tunings or gameplay changes.

Have fun! Drink water and capture B flag!

If you previously played Ranked Play during the Season Five ladders, which we call the Season Five competitive season, and earned rewards by playing, you can obtain those now. This process is similar to how previous seasons operated also.

Your questions lead me to believe that you don't typically play Ranked Play which is okay.

When you originally would have obtained this MOTD the competitive season would have still been active, but ending soon. Now that you have logged on, after Nov 16, you have been served the most recent MOTDs including this one. We shared in previous MOTDs, blogs, and tweets, on Nov 2, that the competitive season was ending at a later date which we have now crossed.

I see this was your last post on this thread. Did you happen to get back up and running?

If you updated on Monday only to encounter black screens or crashes directly after launching, we investigated the issue with our partners and rolled out some solutions. The shortest explanation I can provide is that a recent update to Battle.net resulted in a case that would cause any updated Call of Duty encounter to experience these issues. A fix was rolled out by our Battle.net partners late on Tuesday, which should allow players to Scan/Repair to get back in-game.

This Trello card should help provide additional context too: ...

Thanks for taking the time to try to find a fix for you and your peers. An issue with the Battle.net launcher was discovered and a fix for it was released. That fix allows players to Scan/Repair to get back in if they haven't reinstalled.

We also recommend that you make a backup of your My Documents Black Ops Cold War folder in the future before removing it just in case you need to revert to it or check your old player data folder for configuration settings.

Update: September 28th, 2022 @ 9:40 am/PT

An update to Battle.net has been released, which should help resolve this issue. Players are encouraged to update their Battle.net application and perform a Scan and Repair on their installation of #BlackOpsColdWar to get back into action.

Here's a link to the Repairing Battle.net Games help article.

Update: We are continuing to investigate this situation with our partners. We will continue to update this thread and Trello card with more information when we have it.

The original, now deleted, comment pointed to a website that wasn't our support portal.

We're not sure what this website is, but it is not an official Call of Duty, Treyarch, or Black Ops Cold War resource. We have not released patch notes for this update as there were no intended, player-facing changes made.

Hello! We're currently investigating this issue and just took a tweet live about it.

We're currently aware that players are encountering black screens after hitting play and also noticing that players receive crashes after performing a Scan/Repair. We'll update when we have more information.

THANK YOU for responding! I'll share the party disconnect feedback and specifics with our team and will begin doing some social monitoring to identify if what you have reported is trending.

Happy to hear that this speculative fix, via a real backend network update, has seemingly fixed the Failed to host lobby issue. I'm still monitoring it to see if it is spiking or not from a social standpoint. Network data was reportedly in the positive as of late.

Hello!

Curious if you're still running into this issue? We released a backend network update on July 8th at 5 pm/PT that hopefully alleviated it and have reached out to a few players that were consistently encountering it. I found your thread and hope to hear back soon.

Thanks for sharing. We're taking a look at this one again. We had a fix we released on the 30th, but we'll continue to investigate.

Thank you for sharing those details! We spun up a Trello card for this issue and just got our tweet out about it.
