Treyarch has now addressed and fixed a problem with the Hit List event in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, where eliminations were incorrectly capped. Eliminations play a crucial role in the Hit List event, helping players unlock various rewards such as a Weapon Charm and a Calling Card. Despite the glitch, the backend systems were accurate, and the display error was fixed quickly, indicating the developers’ ability to resolve issues effectively.
A thorough investigation by Treyarch revealed an issue that was affecting the proper counting of eliminations in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Hit List event. Given the importance of eliminations to the event, it was essential for the display to be corrected, which has now been done after the development team’s thorough analysis.
Spanning from November 21 to December 4, Black Ops 6’s Hit List event invites players to rack up eliminations across Warzone, Multiplayer, and Zombies modes. These eliminations translate into Skulls, a currency that can be exchanged for in-game items like a Weapon Charm and Calling Card. The event also features community-based milestones, with its ultimate reward being the Sirin 9MM Secondary Weapon, unlocked at a whopping 50 billion cumulative eliminations. Following a brief investigation, Treyarch successfully resolved the display error affecting the elimination data.
Recently, a tweet from the CODUpdates account brought to light the issue with the Hit List event, where eliminations appeared to be capped at 25 billion. The backend was still tracking stats correctly, so progress wasn’t hindered during the investigation. Along with the announcement, CODUpdates linked a Trello board for Black Ops 6, providing insights into game issues and confirming that the elimination count issue had been addressed. Other listed problems like slower-than-expected mantling speed, issues with the Dark Ops Calling Card, and melee weapon glitches in custom classes remain on the developers’ radar.
Interestingly, the discrepancy was highlighted on social media only a few hours before the fix was implemented, indicating Treyarch’s swiftness in resolving game event-related problems. As the community managed to bypass the 25 billion cap—thereby unlocking the Hand Cannon Scorestreak—it’s possible that further event rewards, like the Veteran Perk, have also been reached. Given the event continues through December and the progress already made, it’s likely that all community rewards will be unlocked.
While the initial Hit List issue seems resolved, it’s suggested that the correction was made via a hotfix, as players weren’t needed to download an update. As Treyarch continues their updates for Black Ops 6, we can expect a future patch to address the game’s remaining known issues.
This encapsulates the latest on the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 landscape, where exciting new features and developments often accompany a few unexpected bumps in the road. As the game evolves, players eagerly await more updates and what the developers have in store.
