Black Ops 4 May 1 update patch notes – Operation Spectre Rising stability fixes, Combat record, and more

Alan Bernal

An immediate follow up patch for Black Ops 4 dropped on May 1 which will look to bring tons of stability improvements for new content that dropped alongside Operation Spectre Rising.

The next major event for Call of Duty launched on April 30 for PlayStation 4 but the company is already acting on some of the earlier problems that have been cropping up throughout its fourth operation.

Even though Treyarch fixed a lot of problems with connectivity issues the day of Spectre Rising’s release, the company is right back on the job as they’re introducing quick amends to bugged Care Packages and its new Bounty Hunter mode.

Though the new Bounty Hunter mode is getting tons of praise, Treyarch has been experiencing some issues with the new mode.

Big fixes to Bounty Hunter

While tons of players have already hopped into the Bounty Hunter game type for Blackout, a ton of people reported connection issues plaguing the new mode.

With the new update, Treyarch thinks they have a handle on the situation and will undoubtedly keep a close watch to see if the fix completely remedied the problem.

Similarly, the May 1 patch has addressed the issue that was misaligning the camera when players were getting revived as Spectre.

Blackout Combat Stats

Alongside the patch coming to consoles, the mobile app will also get an update that will finally bring combat stats from the battle royale wherever you go.

The mobile app will brign comprehensive stats for the specific weapons rangning from Assault Rifles to Submachine Guns and even Bare Hands.

Although most players won’t want to face facts, the mobile app will also let players check on stats like “Killed by” and Accuracy.

The mobile app will now have tons of stats for Black Ops 4’s battle royale.

Loadout Editor on the mobile app

The minds behind the mobile Call of Duty app are introducing a new Loadout Editor, available in the Create-a-Class menu on the application.

The new tool will let users make tweaks to their loadouts “during a match, between games, or on-the-go.”

Players can get a ton of use from the new addition to the app in case they wanted make small adjustments before their next match, or theory-craft an entire new loadout with friends on the go.

There’s a lot to go over so make sure to check out the patch notes courtesy of Treyarch.
