Black Ops 4 Multiplayer Tips & Tricks
Spend Some Time Learning the Maps
Map layout is vitally important in any multiplayer shooter, and Black Ops 4’s map designs, so far, are a bit more claustrophobic than other CoD games. The maps are packed tight with an emphasis on close to medium range combat. We’ve said this a lot, but the differences between specialists are also important here. Certain specialists will be easier to use on certain maps.
For example, in the tight streets of Seaside, Recon’s sensor dart can prove instrumental for spotting enemies. On Payload, Torque’s razor wire and barricade can help block off certain routes/entrances to the hanger the main fight takes place in. Meanwhile, Frequency is filled with cramped spaces and blind corners, making it ideal for the K-9 unit and mines of Nomad.
Obviously, learning the layout of each map and how your chosen specialist plays into that will give you an advantage. One thing you can do is play the game offline with bots and simply spend time exploring each map, trying out how your specialist’s skills work. It may not be as exciting as playing full multiplayer matches, but taking some time out to practice will go a long way if you’re really looking to jump into Black Ops 4’s multiplayer.
