Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Players Find 'Huge Issue' With One Feature

Key Takeaways

  • Black Ops 6 players discover a game-breaking issue with the game’s emote feature.
  • Certain emotes allow the player to see in the third person, giving them an unfair advantage against opponents.
  • Some users are suggesting the feature be changed drastically, while others are calling for emotes to be removed completely.

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent in the Call of Duty universe, I can’t help but feel a mix of frustration and amusement at the latest debacle in Black Ops 6. The discovery of a game-breaking issue with emotes is just another example of how developers sometimes overlook the smallest details, yet they have the power to drastically alter the gaming experience.

Players of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 have uncovered a significant problem with the emotes function, allowing players to temporarily switch to third-person view and spot enemies who would otherwise be hidden when in first-person mode. During August and September, fans of Call of Duty were granted early access to try out Black Ops 6 through open beta weekends. It seems that some game-breaking aspects, which apparently slipped past the attention of Treyarch Studios during development, have been found by the players.

To get ready for its release, Treyarch Studios has disclosed all the modifications they’re making to Black Ops 6, based on feedback from their recent beta testing sessions. The blog post outlines numerous alterations, ranging from adjustments to movement mechanics to weapon balance. With this input from players during the beta weekends, the studio has clearly taken notice and the upcoming shooter will undergo numerous changes when Black Ops 6 launches on October 25 for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.

It’s been confirmed that Treyarch will adjust the winner’s circle in Black Ops 6, but fans are pressing for a significant modification to the game’s emotes within it. On Reddit, a user shared a video from YouTuber ImMarksman demonstrating an issue in the Black Ops 6 beta. In the clip, he used an emote that switched his view from first-person to third-person, allowing him to spot and kill two opponents by revealing their locations. This Reddit user emphasized that making all emotes first-person would help prevent unfair advantages.

Several users have commented that this feels reminiscent of the times in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, as a similar issue occurred in the 2018 game developed by Treyarch, regarding emotes being third-person. One Reddit user expressed their confusion about why Treyarch would implement emotes in this way, stating “I’m not sure what they were thinking making [emotes] third person.” Another user suggested that Treyarch could learn from Apex Legends by only rendering other players during an emote if they were already visible to the player beforehand. Others have proposed disabling emotes entirely outside of the winner’s circle.

As Black Ops 6 approaches, Warzone is gearing up for significant changes. Among these updates, omnidirectional movement will be introduced, and fans are also anticipating the comeback of emotes and sprays in the free-to-play Battle Royale. However, if not addressed properly before Black Ops 6 integrates with Warzone later this year, there may be more drama surrounding the controversial return of emotes from multiplayer.
