Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War update increases weapon XP earn rates
A new update has been released for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War by Treyarch that aims to address complaints regarding weapon XP.
Following the update, players can level up their weapons and unlock attachments faster in both multiplayer and Zombies. There’s also a fix for an issue that caused “lower-than targeted” weapon XP rewards in later rounds of solo Zombies matches.
In addition to the weapon XP adjustments, the developer has patched a gap in Nuketown ’84 that allowed players to stay alive outside of the map. Read the full patch notes below:
