You\u2019re not alone as Sledgehammer Games has confirmed suspicions that the essential mechanic is outright broken when using the Cold Blooded Perk. When it comes to snapping onto targets in multiplayer, aim assist is crucial for those using a controller. It\u2019s been the case for years in the Call of Duty franchise and Vanguard is no different. While arguments go either way about the strength of the feature in this year\u2019s release, players recently noticed a glaring flaw. Many were suspicious that aim assist wasn\u2019t quite working and now, developers at Sledgehammer have confirmed the theory. Cold Blooded is breaking aim assist in CoD Vanguard. If you happen to be using the popular Perk, you\u2019ll be putting others at a huge disadvantage in almost every gunfight. Found in the Perk 1 slot, Cold Blooded has the intended effect of keeping you out of danger. AI-controlled scorestreaks are unable to target you and you\u2019re harder to spot in player-controlled streaks. After early investigations, however, Cold Blooded also comes with a surprising bonus. Without reason, the Perk accidentally breaks aim assist for enemies on the map. Other players trying to track you are at a huge disadvantage. It\u2019s not disabled at all times, but Cold Blooded accidentally \u201ctoggles\u201d the feature \u201con and off,\u201d Sledgehammer Games confirmed through the Vanguard Trello board. For opposing players trying to shoot your way, you\u2019ll be a much harder target to hit. This bug alone could see Cold Blooded taking over the Perk 1 slot until a fix is deployed. There\u2019s currently no telling how far off a potential patch might be. Although it\u2019s being worked on at the time of writing, a resolution is yet to be uncovered. Furthermore, Cold Blooded also hasn\u2019t been disabled in Vanguard just yet. The Perk is still live across all multiplayer maps and modes. We\u2019ll be sure to keep you posted here if that changes in the coming days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CoD Vanguard devs respond to game-breaking Perk that keeps ruining aim assist ActivisionHas your aim assist felt off lately in CoD Vanguard?
