Insider Gaming’s Black Ops 6 Multiplayer Tips Every New Player Needs

As a dedicated fan who’s been part of the Call of Duty family since the epic battles of Call of Duty 2 and Big Red One on PlayStation 2, I’ve picked up a few strategies that could be helpful for newcomers jumping into Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War multiplayer from day one. While I might not always be the best (let’s face it, there’s always room for improvement), I like to believe I can hold my ground in Team Deathmatch or Domination.

Don’t be afraid to jump into a low-stakes Team Deathmatch round to practice Omnimovement. It’s a brand-new mechanic that will take some time to grasp fully, and you’ll find that sweat-lords have you beat on day one. Alternatively, for even lower stakes, load into the Training Course to practice diving, flipping 180 degrees, sprinting backward, and keeping up the momentum to take down foes. Personally, I found I need to work on sliding.
If you want to take full advantage of the Omnimovement system, invest in a few worthwhile perks such as Double Time, which increases Tac Sprint duration; Dexterity, which reduces weapon motion while jumping, sliding, or diving; and Gung-Ho, which allows you to reload while Tac Sprinting.
Most first-person shooters teach you to aim for center mass, but they provide a satisfying critical hit when you strike the head. As such, most players tend to aim high, but in Black Ops 6, damage multipliers mean hitting the limbs and torso repeatedly deal more damage faster than if you land a lucky headshot.
I’m not generally one to follow the meta in any game, especially in Call of Duty. I’m here to have fun. As such, I recommend you ignore what everyone else is playing with and test out weapons and builds of your own. There’s nothing wrong with experimenting with a new weapon type, like a marksman rifle, instead of opting for the fast-firing SMG the entire lobby uses repeatedly!

@Jackb27:

In any first-person shooter (FPS) game, including Call of Duty (COD), it’s crucial to stay alert and quickly respond to potential threats from any direction at all times. Quick reaction time is essential for success in these games, and developing the ability to accurately anticipate other players’ movements requires practice and a deep understanding of the map layouts.

@Rogerinholmpera:

Keep an eye on the mini-map frequently, as this helps you quickly identify the locations of your opponents.

@Hythlodaeus:

Audio matters, arguably more than sight. Being able to pre-aim at a door or around a corner can make a huge difference when you know to listen for weapon shots or footsteps. It’s also good for avoiding an ambush from behind.

@IAMSAMMICH:

Get to know your keybinds! Especially with this new movement!

@Captain_Fuzz:

Keep your sights always “aligned” with the areas where you anticipate opponents might emerge, so you won’t have to adjust your aim as drastically before you start firing. There’s no need to dash towards a door and point your weapon several feet above it; enemies don’t typically pop up from there.
