Treyarch has tackled a glitch in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Hit List event that was capping eliminations, which was crucial for unlocking rewards like Weapon Charms and Calling Cards. The good news is that although the back-end data was always accurate, this quick fix shows how promptly Treyarch can address issues when they pop up.
Following a brief investigation, Treyarch successfully resolved the problem with the Hit List event’s elimination tally. Eliminations are a critical aspect, and their correct display is vital for players chasing those coveted rewards. The event itself, which kicked off on November 21 and runs until December 4, challenges players to gather eliminations across Warzone, Black Ops 6 Multiplayer, and Zombies. Earning these allows players to collect Skulls, currency for exchanging in-game treats, and reaching community milestones for rewards like the coveted Sirin 9MM Secondary Weapon, which unlocks after a jaw-dropping 50 billion cumulative eliminations.
The folks on the CODUpdates Twitter recently flagged the elimination display issue, highlighting that the count seemed stuck at 25 billion. Despite the cap, the backend was keeping tabs on the real numbers, so players’ progress wasn’t jeopardized during the fix. The Trello board update confirmed the bug was squashed, though a few other hiccups, like slower than intended mantling speed and issues with the Dark Ops Calling Card, remain on the developer’s radar.
When the fix was promptly rolled out, it underscored Treyarch’s ability to quickly address and resolve event-related glitches. Since the elimination count had surpassed the 25 billion mark, reaching over that threshold, players likely unlocked bonuses like the Hand Cannon Scorestreak and ventured toward snagging the Veteran Perk. Given the community’s pace, it looks like unlocking all available Hit List rewards isn’t just a pipe dream.
Even though the Hit List glitch is now sorted, it seems Treyarch managed to squeeze in a hotfix, sparing players from needing to download any new updates. As they continue to polish Black Ops 6, expect other previously listed issues to get similarly smoothed out in upcoming patches.
Delving deeper, Black Ops 6, developed by gaming powerhouses Treyarch and Raven, whisks players away to the early 90s, a time rich with post-Cold War intrigue and the dawn of the U.S. as the dominant superpower. Known for its nerve-racking spy-thriller campaigns, the game serves a cocktail of high-stakes missions and cloak-and-dagger tasks.
For fans of multiplayer action, Black Ops 6 delivers with 16 fresh maps right out the gate, catering to traditional 6v6 skirmishes and the more intimate 2v2 Strike maps. And let’s not forget the beloved Round-Based Zombies mode, making a triumphant return with new maps to set the stage for undead chaos. Post-launch, fans can expect a pipeline of additional maps and groundbreaking surprises in both Multiplayer and Zombies realms.
Released on October 25, 2024, Black Ops 6 runs on the IW 9.0 engine and comes packed with features such as cross-save and cross-platform play across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. This mature-rated game, lauded for its intense narrative and striking visuals, promises roughly 8 hours of gripping gameplay, whether you’re going solo or teaming up with friends in local or online modes.
