Treyarch released the official day-one patch notes that will be live whenever players load up the game for the first time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, a ton has been added and change since we last played Black Ops Cold War. Treyarch has been hard at work ensuring every known bug is patched and extra content is available. While we don&rsquo;t know every bit of content coming to the new title, a majority has now been officially revealed. Below, you can view the entire patch notes list along with a summary of the key highlights.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Full patch notes for the launch of Black Ops Cold War&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>All in all, there&rsquo;s a laundry list of fixes, changes, and new content coming with the full release of the newest entry in the Call of Duty franchise. In terms of exciting new items, the developers revealed that several new weapons, game modes, and features are arriving on day one. This includes the FFAR 1 (Famas) assault rifle, weapon inspecting, nerfs to sliding, and overall weapon balance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/NaInRE6FXstmGvSRmjxIIYA4AVbW8IfXqtFiCpxcZ9I\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzL0JsYWNrX29wc19jb2xkX3dhcl8xLnBuZw\" alt=\"Black Ops Cold War day one patch notes\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">Black Ops Cold War releases globally on 13th November. (Picture: Treyarch)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In regards to the sliding nerf, Treyarch took on board community feedback and reduced the length and speed of the movement method. Sprinting should now be the primary movement method now, instead of sliding like it was in the beta.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Also, the developers nerfed sniping pretty heavily. There&rsquo;s now an increased ADS time and the aim assist isn&rsquo;t as strong but does feel smoother. Overall, Treyarch is hoping to keep snipers and enemies on the other side of the scope happy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Below, you can view the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treyarch.com\/game-intel\/2020\/11\/Black_Ops_Cold_War_The_Road_to_Launch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">full patch notes<\/a> for Black Ops Cold War.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to an incredible single-player Campaign led by our partners at Raven Software, our all-new Dark Aether Zombies co-op experience, and the latest chapter in the fan-favorite Dead Ops Arcade series, we&rsquo;ll be delivering plenty of new Multiplayer content on launch day in Black Ops Cold War.<\/p>\n<p>Starting on Day One, you&rsquo;ll have new maps to play, more game modes in both Core and Hardcore playlists, new weapons and Create-a-Class content, more Perks, more Scorestreaks, a new Seasonal Prestige system, new Challenges, and other new features to enjoy.

Rifles<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Tuned general assault rifle performance closer to Krig 6 and XM4 Beta performance for better balance across the

improve the effectiveness of the class.<\/li>\n<li>Increased LMG ADS times.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sniper Rifles<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Adjusted aim assist

feel more intuitive and responsive.\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>In the Beta, the location of the player&rsquo;s bullet was always based on the direction of their weapon, which could have a slight deviation to their eye-view perspective through the sights. These should now line up better across all iron sights and optics, providing more precision when ADS-firing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aim Assist Tuning<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Adjusted a number of aim assist parameters to provide a more expected feel across weapon classes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aiming Down Sights (ADS)<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Adjusted ADS transitions to make them smoother and more fluid.<\/li>\n<li>Adjusted ADS sway to provide more dramatic feel while reducing weapon rotation.<\/li>\n<li>Adjusted weapon pushback when firing in ADS to address cases where optic models could get too close to the player camera.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Attachments<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li><strong>Additional Attachments<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Added more attachments to equip in the Gunsmith.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Attachment Balance<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Updated balance for roughly half of the attachments across all weapons to increase viability across the board.<\/li>\n<li>Reworked bonuses and penalties on Barrel attachments to better reflect relationship between ranges, muzzle velocities, and barrel length.<\/li>\n<li>There are now Barrel attachments that offer shorter Barrel length for increased strafe speed movement, either when hip-firing or ADS-firing. This provides players with greater options for leaning into movement as a kit option.<\/li>\n<li>Increased enemy reveal range when using the mounted light attachment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Attachment Descriptions<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Updated names, descriptions, and statistics categories for weapons to provide a clearer picture of functionality and authenticity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dual Wield<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Added the ability to dual-wield pistols.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weapon Levels<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Increased primary weapon levels from 40 to 55.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stationary Turrets<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Increased use radius of stationary turrets.<a id=\"movement_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Movement<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li><strong>Sliding<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Shortened slide length.<\/li>\n<li>Reduced slide speed.\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Sliding is intended as an escape mechanic or quick entrance into crouch or cover. It&rsquo;s not intended to be over-used during engagements, or to be too advantageous in close quarters. We&rsquo;ve shortened the slide length and reduced its speed to address these goals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Ending a sprint to fire is now faster than sliding to fire.\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>In the Beta, it was faster to fire your weapon from a sprint by sliding than by simply ending your sprint to fire. This has been fixed so that ending a sprint to fire is the faster way to get your gun up, and sliding to fire is no longer faster.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mantling<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Increased speeds for all mantles.<a id=\"scorestreak_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"cke_pagebreak\" style=\"page-break-after: always;\" title=\"Page Break\" contenteditable=\"false\" aria-label=\"Page Break\" data-cke-display-name=\"pagebreak\" data-cke-pagebreak=\"1\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<p><strong>Scorestreaks<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li><strong>Additional Scorestreaks<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Added new Scorestreaks since Beta:\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Combat Bow<\/li>\n<li>Armor<\/li>\n<li>Care Package<\/li>\n<li>Cruise Missile<\/li>\n<li>VTOL Escort<\/li>\n<li>Gunship<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Earn Rate<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Improved score event tuning and Scorestreak earn potential across all modes.<\/li>\n<li>Increased score bonus thresholds at 10-kill and 15-kill streaks to make high streaks feel more rewarding, and to help boost score to higher-end Scorestreaks.\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>In the Beta, Scorestreaks were being earned more often than intended in several game modes, so we&rsquo;ve made tuning adjustments to bring the overall earn rate down. On the other hand, because even top players were having a hard time getting to the highest Scorestreaks, we&rsquo;ve increased the score bonus thresholds for higher kill streaks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scorestreak Tuning<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li><strong>Attack Helicopter<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Increased Attack Helicopter damage from 5-hit kill to 3-hit kill.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chopper Gunner<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Slightly reduced Chopper Gunner duration and damage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Costs<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Balance adjustment to all Scorestreak costs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>UI<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Added a numerical display showing remaining score required to earn your equipped Scorestreaks, which appears briefly on respawn and after closing the Scoreboard.<\/li>\n<li>Improved Scorestreak tablet cursor speed.<\/li>\n<li>Improved visibility of Scorestreak tablet red dots for indoor enemies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cooldowns<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Added variation to Scorestreak cooldowns to allow for more interesting player choices and strategy, while also reducing low-end Scorestreak spam.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Miscellaneous<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Updated default Scorestreak selection.<\/li>\n<li>Updated Scorestreak descriptions with more detail on new functionality.<\/li>\n<li>Improved rumble\/camera shake on Scorestreak events.<a id=\"spawns_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Spawns<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>General spawn adjustments across all modes.<\/li>\n<li>Enemies in Gunboats will now properly cancel spawns within their line of sight.<a id=\"pers_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Perks<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li><strong>Flak Jacket<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Flak Jacket damage reduction reduced by 5%.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paranoia<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Updated the sound for when an enemy is aiming at you with Paranoia equipped.<a id=\"equiptment_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Equipment<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li><strong>Frag<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Improved Frag throwback speed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stim Shot<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Cooldown increased from 8 seconds to 11 seconds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Decoy<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Duration reduced from 20 seconds to 15 seconds.<\/li>\n<li>Decoy will now play a static sound effect every few seconds, so attentive players can discern fake footsteps from real ones.<a id=\"field_upgrades_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Field Upgrades<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li><strong>Field Mic<\/strong>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: circle;\">\n<li>Field Mic listening radius reduced by 10%.<\/li>\n<li>Field Mic cooldown increased to from 3:00 to 3:30.<a id=\"features_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Features<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>Added Military Ranks up to 55 in standard player progression.<\/li>\n<li>Added Seasonal Prestige player progression system, beginning at launch after completing Military Rank 55.<\/li>\n<li>Added Challenges for Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies.<\/li>\n<li>Added unlockable Weapon Camos.<\/li>\n<li>Player and weapon customization now available.<\/li>\n<li>Added Combat Record.<\/li>\n<li>Added Theater support.<\/li>\n<li>Added Multiplayer bot support.<\/li>\n<li>Added Finishing Move support.<\/li>\n<li>Added Weapon Inspect support.<a id=\"audio_updates\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"border: 0px;
