After facing a backlash, Treyarch added previously earned double XP tokens from MW2 and MW3 back to Black Ops 6 multiplayer and also addressed hit marker concerns.

Ahead of launch, double XP tokens from MW2 and MW3 were only planned to be available in Warzone. However, after the Season 1 update, fans received a pleasant surprise when those tokens were also available in BO6 multiplayer.

Players praised the decision, but that sentiment soon soured as the development team labeled it as a mistake and removed them from multiplayer in an update. Community members slammed the decision and questioned why they should only be available in one game mode.

Treyarch heard the complaints and responded accordingly in the most recent update. In addition, this patch resolves inconsistent hit markers.
