Hardcore enthusiasts of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 have been vocal about their disappointment with Season 2 Reloaded’s playlist update, which seems to have sidelined the beloved Hardcore mode. Known for its fast-paced gameplay and reduced time-to-kill, Hardcore has always been a favorite among many players. However, the exclusion of this mode from the latest update has left some feeling neglected.
Since its launch last October, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has faced its fair share of critiques from the community. Players haven’t held back, especially after recent events like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles tie-in, which left some grumbling about the associated costs. Despite being selective about the feedback it addresses, Treyarch has generally been commendable in its approach, rolling out updates in response to player concerns.
A popular thread on Reddit highlighted the latest grievances of Hardcore fans. User Pummpy1 pointed out that the new update brings in playlists such as Small Map Moshpit, TMNT Moshpit, Grind Ooze 24/7, and Bullet 24/7, all of which are dedicated solely to Core players. Additionally, there are several perennial game modes that remain unavailable in Hardcore, prompting Pummpy1 to describe the situation as “ridiculous” due to the scant content available to those who prefer Hardcore.
### Core-Exclusive Playlists in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2 Reloaded
– Small Map Moshpit
– TMNT Moshpit
– Grind Ooze 24/7
– Bullet 24/7
– Gunfight
– Overdrive
– Control
– Headquarters
Many community members agree that hardcore players deserve more at this stage in the season. Nevertheless, some understand Treyarch’s hesitance, as expanding Hardcore options might further splinter the player base. As it stands, the game offers Stakeout and Nuketown 24/7 playlists for Hardcore fanatics that enjoy smaller maps. However, whether this satisfies all Hardcore players remains debatable.
Despite these criticisms, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 continues to chug along with its usual live service framework that defines the series’ seasonal content updates. This model keeps a continual stream of new content flowing, ensuring players remain engaged over a year-long span. Fans can anticipate a third season to follow, although for now, Black Ops 6 Season 2 Reloaded is still in its early days.
