The gaming community around Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is currently buzzing with discontent, particularly among those who favor the Hardcore mode. With the Season 2 Reloaded update, many players feel sidelined as Hardcore appears noticeably absent from the new playlists. This mode is highly regarded for its quicker time-to-kill, a feature that hardcore fans cherish, yet the latest update seems to exclude them.
From the initial release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 in October, players haven’t hesitated to voice their concerns to Treyarch. Recently, there was a stir over the TMNT event’s pricing within the game, adding to the list of grievances. While Treyarch may not address every concern instantly, they’ve generally been successful in implementing updates that echo the player’s feedback.
A Reddit user, Pummpy1, brought these concerns to light by pointing out that four of the new Season 2 Reloaded playlists — Small Map Moshpit, TMNT Moshpit, Grind Ooze 24/7, and Bullet 24/7 — cater exclusively to Core mode players. Adding to the frustration, Pummpy1 highlighted that there are four standard game modes missing from Hardcore, describing the situation as “ridiculous” considering how much content Hardcore players miss out on.
### Core-Exclusive Playlists in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2 Reloaded
– Small Map Moshpit
– TMNT Moshpit
– Grind Ooze 24/7
– Bullet 24/7
– Gunfight
– Overdrive
– Control
– Headquarters
A majority of fans agreed in the thread that Treyarch needs to address this imbalance during Season 2 Reloaded to better accommodate Hardcore aficionados. However, there’s also a recognition that Treyarch might hesitate to divide the player base any further with more Hardcore options. Some argue that existing playlists like Stakeout and Nuketown 24/7 in Hardcore might already meet the demand for smaller map experiences, but this is still up for debate.
As it stands, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 continues on its journey as a typical live-service title in the CoD franchise. The seasonal framework seems to serve well, keeping gamers engaged and the player base active throughout the year. With Season 2 Reloaded now underway, players can already anticipate what may come with Season 3, ensuring a steady stream of content to look forward to.
