'Call of Duty: Black Ops 4' Patch Has a Major PC Focus

3.5
The latest Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 patch is now live and Treyarch is making the quality of the game a little bit better with each update. This latest patch focuses on Quality of Life improvements while also tackling a few exploits along the way.

Earlier we shared the changes made to Zombies and how that affects the modifiers, now let's talk about Blackout and Multiplayer.

Since PC runs differently than its console counterparts, there are a few key changes made specifically made for that particular platform. There's a lot of ground to cover for PC players, so let's dive right in:

General (PC ONLY)

Fixed a crash occurring on CPUs that don't support SSE4.1 instructions extension. This issue was affecting AMD Phenom CPUs.
