Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Update 1.08 Live on Consoles, Improves Multiplayer and Zombies Stability

Treyarch’s latest update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is now live on consoles. Update 1.08 contains improvements and adjustments to all modes, while bringing more stability to Multiplayer and Zombies. The PC update will be going live tomorrow and will have its own exclusive changes.

Until then, players having a hard time on Seaside and Hacienda in Hardpoint should see better spawn adjustments. In terms of multiplayer crashes, Treyarch has fixed crashes that can occur when a player disconnects during a Hellstorm strike, while being attacked by a Seeker in “certain situations”, when killed by Firebreak’s Reactor Core while disconnecting, and so on. There’s even a fix for a crash that occurred when collecting the tag for a disconnected player in Kill Confirmed.

For Zombies, crash fixes are in for “multiple situations” when players disconnected from a game. A crash that could occur occasionally when stats were calculated during round endings has also been fixed. Crashes that could occur during different Combat Training missions in Specialist HQ have also been fixed. Check out the full patch notes below for more information:
