Black Ops Cold War dev confirms weapon & streak balancing coming soon TreyarchTony Flame, Treyarch\u2019s lead designer, has confirmed that the CoD developers are planning to roll out some changes to weapons and scorestreaks, perhaps even before the start of Black Ops Cold War Season 1. [jwplayer 38QHhqzR] Even though the Black Ops Cold War year has barely gotten rolling, players \u2013 both casual and professional \u2013 have already been discussing changes. The attention has, for the most part, centered around the ongoing skill-based matchmaking debate with players like Nadeshot pleading with the devs to dial back the SBMM for the time being. Others, though, have focused on trying to get the devs to make changes to certain weapons as well as the scorestreaks system that has been criticized since the beta period. Well, it appears as if they\u2019ll get this wish in the near future as Tony Flame confirmed that Treyarch are looking to make some changes. \u201cThere WILL be Weapon, Scorestreak, and more balance changes coming in with Season 1, if not sooner,\u201d the Treyarch designer tweeted on November 15. \u201cAlready seeing some interesting trends in the analytics, but it\u2019s too soon for conclusions.\u201d The dev also noted that they are taking community feedback on-board too. \u201cIf you\u2019re giving feedback, know that we see it and are taking it into consideration,\u201d he added. There WILL be Weapon, Scorestreak, and more balance changes coming in with Season 1, if not sooner. Already seeing some interesting trends in the analytics, but it’s too soon for conclusions. If you’re giving feedback, know that we see it and are taking it into consideration. \u2014 Tony Flame (@Tony_Flame) November 15, 2020 Weapons like the MP5, Krig, and XM4 have jumped out ahead of the pack as some of the game\u2019s most powerful, and fans would certainly like to see them being tweaked prior to Season 1, which is currently slated to begin on December 10. At the end of the day, though, the final decisions lay with Treyarch and as noted, changes could come beforehand. They are the ones with all the data, and while they\u2019ll certainly take player feedback onboard, changes will only happen if they make sense on all fronts and don\u2019t ruin the multiplayer experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
