Treyarch responds to game-breaking Black Ops Cold War controller bug TreyarchYou may have had your controller disconnect randomly while playing the Black Ops Cold War beta. Rest assured, you\u2019re not alone and the developers at Treyarch are fully aware of the game-breaking issue. [jwplayer ulMZS35X] The Black Ops Cold War beta went live on Thursday, October 8. If you\u2019ve been grinding throughout the PlayStation 4 period of the test, there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ve encountered a few problems. After all, that\u2019s the point of a beta. From critical network issues to a sliding bug that made players faster than ever, a handful of problems have already been addressed, though one truly \u201cgame-breaking\u201d glitch is still weighing the experience down for some. If you\u2019re playing with a controller, which the majority of PS4 players are, you need to be cautious of this one. Seemingly at random, your controller can outright switch off and leave you defenseless. Regardless of whether your controller is plugged in or wireless, whether it\u2019s fully charged or running low, this bug can strike at any time. When loading into a map, your device can randomly be shut off without warning. \u201cAs soon as I got to the select class, my controller turned off,\u201d FrostByte2048 said. From here, there\u2019s no way to turn it back on midway through the game. Even after being \u201ckicked for inactivity,\u201d they couldn\u2019t get the Dualshock back up and running. The only solution \u201cwas to reset [the] PS4 by holding the power button.\u201d It turns out this is quite a common issue as dozens of players chimed in with similar experiences from the beta. We\u2019ve even encountered the problem first-hand here at Dexerto too. However, Treyarch is fully aware and trying to push out a fix as soon as possible. \u201cOur team is investigating issues like these,\u201d Treyarch dev FoxhoundFPS responded. They even highlighted other instances of the bug, ensuring they\u2019re on top of it. There\u2019s no telling what causes the disconnect, though some players believe it to be map specific. Cartel could be the main culprit, though the problem can still arise on other maps. Be sure to double-check at the start of every game just to be safe. With the beta moving to all platforms from October 15 onwards, perhaps a fix will be included as the early access goes live once again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
