Balance issues in Warzone
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has also become the integration of Call of Duty: Warzone, a process that has not been completed without problems. Many users have complained about the balance of weapons, so Raven Software, which is in charge of Infinity Ward’s battle royale, has taken up the matter and released an update to address these issues. In addition, it also came to light that some users had managed to take advantage of an exploit to sneak into the new Gulag without being killed.
The new installment of the main saga is set in the period known as the Cold War, which kept the two powers of the moment and their allies in tension. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC.
