CoD: Black Ops 6 Patch Notes Include Major Nerfs To Flashbangs, Recon Bonus, And Snaking
A new update arrived to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on November 4, and the patch notes include several major changes. This includes nerfs to the overpowered flashbangs and the Recon Combat Speciality bonus. The game’s snaking movement has also been reduced.
According to the patch notes, Treyarch says there’s been “enough snaking,” and the movement is now nerfed. Snaking is an exploit where a player rapidly switches between the prone and crouch positions while stationed behind a cover, making themselves harder to hit. However, that movement will be slower and less impactful with the update adjusting the stance-change cooldowns to reduce effectiveness of repeated snaking motion.
The developer also adjusts the game’s frustrating Recon Combat Speciality bonus, which previously gave players too much information. Now, the Recon bonus will only provide users with limited-time wall hacks for 1.5 seconds instead of 2.
