[Update 12/16] Since the release of the new Black Ops Cold War Update 1.08 yesterday, Treyarch has revealed the update’s official release notes.
“This update brings weapon tuning across nearly every weapon class in the Black Ops Cold War Multiplayer arsenal, including much-anticipated adjustments to tactical rifles, the FFAR 1 assault rifle, our semi-auto sniper rifle, and much more”, the developer writes. “These changes bring each weapon closer in-line with its target time-to-kill for its class, and as always, we’ll continue to monitor the performance of all weapons to ensure the meta stays balanced.”
