As the second weekend of the Black Ops 6 Open Beta is just about to begin, developer Treyarch has shared extensive patch notes to notify players of what is going to be changing from what they experienced last week.
From various weapons getting important modifications in the form of buffs or nerfs to some major changes to the progression in the upcoming Call of Duty title, everything has been listed quite clearly, with a lot of detail put into each aspect so the fanbase knows exactly what the studio has been up to while tweaking the game.
This approach by the developers is not going unnoticed by the community, which is quite happy with how transparently Treyarch is choosing to handle things with its grand comeback to the long-running franchise.
Treyarch Shares the Black Ops 6 Open Beta Patch Notes for Its Second Weekend
As Treyarch went through the trouble of putting a fresh spin on Call of Duty by rebuilding some of its major features from scratch, not everything seemed to work perfectly during the first weekend of the Black Ops 6 Open Beta, with a lot of improvement required in numerous areas of the game.
But the developer definitely listened to the community’s feedback, as just before launching the second weekend, it revealed the key differences that will accompany the Open Beta this time around. The first major change deals with the progression system, which used to have a cap of Level 20 but now will be increased to 30 to allow players to unlock new content with each level.
Along with that, Treyarch has also revealed a few rewards that will be given to the players on Levels 23, 27, and 30, but the most important change tweaks how the various weapons work in Black Ops 6, as the developer has made some much-needed adjustments. For starters, the Call of Duty fanbase criticized the weapon swap speeds for being too slow, prompting the studio to decrease the drop times for each type.
However, something that stood out to the community was what followed, as Treyarch created an entire table to clarify some of the other crucial changes that will be affecting each type of weapon, starting with their movement speeds.
The Call of Duty Fanbase Appreciates the Developer’s Transparent Approach
Even taking decimal points into consideration while explaining the exact adjustments made to the weapons, Treyarch’s transparent and clear approach is being appreciated by the Call of Duty community, which has witnessed its fair share of developers not caring to go into this much depth with past titles.
As the studio continued to brief the fanbase about some other crucial changes, such as the Jackal PDW going through some required nerfs to balance the gameplay for the players, the fans observed how confident Treyarch is about the overall vision of its upcoming title.
The fact that the developer took the damage ranges that do not even differ by a full meter into account with the Open Beta patch notes has the fanbase reminiscing about the state of Warzone and other Call of Duty titles as compared to the new Black Ops installment.
While the Call of Duty player base already had a lot of faith in Treyarch’s capabilities to bring the franchise back to its former glory, the way things are going with the Black Ops 6 Open Beta could be a sign that the developer could actually pull it off.
