"Activision has made a major announcement regarding a particular feature in this year's Call of Duty, Black Ops 7. The game, which had its full reveal at gamescom just one week ago, will no longer support Carry Forward. Carry Forward is a feature that allows players to bring Black Ops 6 weapons, operators, skins and other cosmetics with them to the new game. Unfortunately, that's made it more difficult for players to be excited about the upcoming game."
"While Carry Forward is something that would typically be celebrated for respecting the players' legacy and time spent, it has gained an especially negative connotation. Over the course of Black Ops 6's lifespan, Activision continued to deviate from the original art style and look of the game by introducing more cross-over and cartoony skins, which have practically turned it into Fortnite."
Activision announced that Black Ops 7 will not support Carry Forward, preventing transfer of Black Ops 6 weapons, operators, and skins. Carry Forward previously allowed players to bring cosmetics, operators, and other items from Black Ops 6 into the new game. The feature developed negative connotations after Black Ops 6 introduced crossover and cartoony skins that diverged from a grounded art direction. Overwhelmingly negative fan reaction to continued Carry Forward strongly influenced the reversal. Warzone will retain continuity with previous games. Double XP tokens and GobbleGums are exempt and will carry forward into Black Ops 7.
