COD Black Ops IV Patch Notes Concern Zombies & Blackout

Treyarch has just released another update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, and it has a lot of well-needed balance fixes, in addition to launching the Black Market.

As my buddy and I quickly learned last week, playing zombies with just two players can be exceedingly difficult. We never added bots, because "Maaaaaaaan... we don't need no sissy ass bots!"

Then we proceeded to get our asses kicked a 1,000 times in a row.

Suffice to say, teams of 4 work much, much better in this version of zombies, but now Treyarch is giving us a bit more of a chance. In addition to balancing things a bit on the zombies front, the update also fiddles with the elixers, tweaking various potions that were either too effective or not effective enough. The Black Market contains items that are only for multiplayer and Blackout, which includes weapons, outfits, characters, gestures and more. 

You can get down on some COD right now and enjoy their Halloween event, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is available on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
