Black Ops 7 Extends Final Beta, Sneaking Up On Battlefield 6
"The current CoDBlops 7 beta was due to come to an end at 12 p.m. EDT on Wednesday 8 October, but has now been given a 24 hour extension, along with a brand new map to play on and double XP rewarded until the new deadline of Thursday 9th. And you know this was planned from the start, designed to tread on BF6 's heels as much as possible."
"The sixth and final map is Toshin, the much vaunted Japanese setting complete with cherry blossoms, a downtown shopping district, and a rather unfortunate central monorail crash. The update from the Call of Duty patchnotes blog also mentions that double XP and double weapon XP will be running through the end of the beta on Thursday, trying to keep as many eyes looking toward this franchise and not glancing away at EA's rival."
"Reports from the beta so far have suggested issues with mulitplayer matchmaking (which of course is one of the reasons these betas are run in the first place-to try to get on top of problems like this before the release), as well as grumbles about TTK and oddly enough, the game's closing doors. Come the end of the beta, attention returns to Blops 6 and season 6's The Haunting event for Halloween from October 9,"
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 beta received a 24-hour extension, moving its end from 12 p.m. EDT Wednesday 8 October to Thursday 9 October. The extension adds a new map, Toshin, featuring cherry blossoms, a downtown shopping district, and a ruined central monorail, and activates double XP and double weapon XP through the new deadline. Beta reports indicate multiplayer matchmaking problems, complaints about time-to-kill balances, and issues with the game's closing doors. The beta's timing overlaps Battlefield 6's October 9 release and coincides with Black Ops 6 season 6's The Haunting Halloween event. Battlefield 6 will have over a month alone before Black Ops 7 launches on November 14, with no more betas planned.
