CoD Black Ops 6: How To Prepare For The 10th Round Of Zombies Mode? - 7 Tips

God! I thought I was used to the strange crossover style of COD Bo6, but seeing Beavis And Butt-Head appear in COD and become an operator still made my brain twitch and scream. This is an event that is even stranger than turtle guys, but I have to say that such a strange style will make players like it.

This event is a small pass as always, with a total of 16 rewards, including 8 rewards for free pass and premium pass, including operator skins, gun attachments, stickers and other rewards.

Beavis And Butt-Head Crossover

Beavis And Butt-Head is an American adult animation series from the 1990s, which originated from Mike Judge’s short film, Frog Baseball. He is also the producer and voice actor of this animation (Yes, and he is the two protagonists’ voice actor).

This animation was broadcast for a total of eight seasons between 1993 and 2011, and the ninth and tenth seasons were broadcast after 2022. I believe Beavis and Butt-Head is a childhood memory for some players.

Beavis And Butt-Head event is now open and will end on July 30. Players can complete tasks and unlock pass rewards during the event.

How To Get Beavis And Butt-Head Rewards?

Although the crossover with Beavis And Butt-Head is refreshing, this event itself is not much different from other crossover activities. You still need to gain experience in the multiplayer mode, zombie mode and Warzone of Call of Duty Black Ops 6.

The rewards are divided into Free Pass and Premium Pass (unlocked by 1,100 CoD Points). The rewards of Free Pass include Operator, Coach Buzzcut and Todd, while the rewards of Premium Pass are Butt-Head and Beavis, besides some funny execution actions and some gun attachments.

In the free pass, you will also get two COD BO6 Double XP Tokens, which are two hours in total. They can help you unlock all the rewards of this event faster, so don’t waste them.

Here are the rewards for Beavis And Butt-Head:

• 0 XP: Coach Buzzcut - Operator, Beavis - Operator
• 20,000 XP: Class Clowns - Loading Screen (free pass) and Frog Smacker - Baseball Bat BP (premium pass)
• 50,000 XP: Rev Renegade - Emblem (free pass) and Dumbass - Finisher (premium pass)
• 70,000 XP: Double XP Token - 1 Hour (free pass) and Hot Cheese - Saug BP (premium pass)
• 100,000 XP: Coach Rage - Sticker (free pass) and One Braincell - Emblem (premium pass)
• 140,000 XP: SVD Full Auto - Attachment (free pass) and We Rock - Emote (premium pass)
• 180,000 XP: Todd - Operator (free pass) and Rockin’ The Couch - Calling Card (premium pass)
• 240,000 XP: Double Weapon XP Token - 1 Hour (free pass) and Death Rock - AK-74 BP (premium pass)
• 3000,000 XP: Pickaxe - Melee (free pass) and Cornholio - Gun Screen (premium pass)
• 370,000 XP: Olympia - Secondary Weapon (free pass) and Butt-Head - Operator (premium pass)

The melee weapon pickaxe and secondary weapon Olympia previously announced in Season 4 are in this event, and SVD Full Auto attachment in the free pass can transform SVD into an automatic rifle.

If you miss this event, you can still unlock the gun, melee weapons and SVD Full Auto, but you can no longer unlock Beavis And Butt-Head crossover appearance.

How Is This Event?

To be honest, most of the crossover activities in COD BO6 are suck. They basically release an operator with a weird model and then make it into a Premium Pass in the season game to make money. And the recent activities are getting more and more disappointing, and players have almost no desire for them.

Is Beavis And Butt-Head the less bad one? Not really. This activity puts both the main operators into the premium pass, and the desire to cheat money is almost bursting out of the screen and lining up in the players’ faces.

But players may like this crossover. The operator skins that can attract the interest of players (especially CoD players) are either very cool or extremely ugly and weird. The image of Beavis And Butt-Head is naturally not cool. They are just high school students who love watching TV and are full of dirty jokes. Imagine the scene of you being killed by them, and it would be too humiliating. Players like this, so this pass is likely to sell well.

What bothers players is whether a big head like Butt-Head will increase the chance of being headshot? When you unlock this operator appearance, you can go to CoD Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies to test it.

Beavis And Butt-Head event has just started, and you have plenty of time to complete this event. Now, as long as you log in, you can change your operator to Coach Buzzcut and Beavis (if you unlock the premium pass). But Black Ops 6’s Beavis And Butt-Head event shows more than that. Beavis And Butt-Head will also get operator skins wearing tactical equipment, but these contents should appear in the bundle. Whether you want to get them depends on whether you like these funny skins.

With the official launch of the remastered Season 2 and the TMNT crossover event, BO6 has been revitalized, which should make you interested in continuing to experience the game after a long period of dullness. But before that, you need to know what new elements have been added.

First of all, there are various new skins and weapons related to the TMNT crossover, but in addition to this, some other weapons added to Black Ops 6 are actually the return of weapons from the old games in Call of Duty series, such as D1.3 Sector. Based on this, we will introduce it to you and tell you how to make it stronger with various attachments.

What Is D1.3 Sector?

In the past, D1.3 Sector was actually a saw blade launcher in Black Ops 4, and now it has returned with a set of customization options to make the construction of the new Season 2 of BO6 become better. D1.3 Sector is located in the auxiliary slot and has unique ammunition types suitable for most CoD Black Ops 6 play styles, such as powerful saw blades, projectiles that bounce off walls, or explosive projectiles, which are all powerful enough to destroy your enemies.

Although there are many weapons in the game that are stronger than D1.3 Sector, on the one hand, you can strengthen it through BO6 Double Boost XP Tokens, and on the other hand, its performance in Zombies mode or other competitive modes is very special and interesting, which makes D1.3 Sector not easily replaced.

How To Get D1.3 Sector In BO6?

The unlocking of this weapon is related to the TMNT crossover event, which means that you need to advance your event progress by playing Multiplayer, Zombies or Warzone between February 27 and March 13 to get 370,000 XP to get D1.3 Sector as the final reward of the event reward track.

Fortunately, even if you don’t have time to participate in the TMNT event during this period, it doesn’t matter, because D1.3 Sector will be added to the armory system after the event, and you can unlock it according to the system requirements at that time.

How To Create The Best Build For D1.3 Sector?

First of all, in terms of attachment selection, there are three attachments that you must add to D1.3 Sector: Long Barrel can greatly increase the ADS speed of this weapon, while Crossbar and Overclocked Stock can make its sweep speed almost as fast as sprinting speed.

• Long Barrel: + Damage Range/Sprint to Fire Speed/Sprint to Fire Speed/ADS Speed; +30% Damage Range, -27% ADS Speed, -39% Sprint to Fire Speed
• Crossbar: + Crossbar ADS/Aim Walking Speed/ADS Speed; ADS is now a focused hip fire mode, +25% ADS Strafe Speed, -5% ADS Speed
• Overclocked Stock: + Aim Walking Speed/AIm Idle Sway Delay/Sprint Speed/Fire Rate; +5% Fire Rate/6% Sprint Speed/24% ADS Strafe Speed​​

As for the choice of ammunition, the following three are more suitable:

• Default: Through a blade with a medium flight time, a direct impact can kill the enemy.
• Ricochet: Makes the blade fly faster and can get a faster firing rate by rebounding from hard surfaces. Can kill two enemies at the same time with a direct impact.
• Explosive: Causes the blade to explode upon contact with the enemy, but has a slower rate of fire.

Of the three, Default is best for multiplayer, as it can use its speed to kill with one shot, but requires a high level of gaming skills, and can waste opportunities if you make a mistake. You may also find that Explosive performs well in multiplayer, but your opponent can use Flak Jacket to defend against it.

Ricochet looks strong, but its use is very limited, as it has a low tolerance for error, and if used improperly, it will halve the damage output of D1.3 Sector, and only provide a 15% rate of fire bonus to compensate. The last item, Explosive, is the best D1.3 Sector ammunition choice for Zombies, as the saw blade will form a large explosion on impact to kill numerous zombies quickly.

Best Loadout Choices

First, we’ll give you a list of the best perks and gear for D1.3 Sector:

Perks:

• Specialty-Strategist
• Column One-Flak Jacket
• Column Two-Fast Hands
• Column Three-Quartermaster

Gear:

• Wildcard-Preference
• Lethal-Preference
• Tactical-Stim Shot
• Field Upgrade-Assault Pack

Theoretically, D1.3 Sector doesn’t need the help of extra perks to stand out, so you can pair it with a loadout based on your preference, but we really recommend equipping this weapon with Strategist specialty to get a similar kill-healing effect as Enforcer.

The Flak Jacket is a perk that’s useful when you’re looking at the mini-map, and can significantly reduce the amount of explosive damage you take from enemies. Fast Hands helps you switch to your primary weapon immediately when fighting, and Quartermaster speeds up the recharge of your Stim Shots, which are both great.

The TMNT crossover is now in full swing! Although you can get D1.3 Sector later through the armory, it’s always a good idea to CT (make) the most of the opportunity. I hope you can get this interesting weapon as soon as possible!

Among all the recent developments and events of CoD Black Ops 6, the crossover with Squid Games is undoubtedly the most attractive. This crossover combines the classic plots and iconic characters in Squid Games series with the game mechanics of BO6 to bring you an extraordinary shooting and combat experience.

Although each seasonal update of Black Ops 6 itself will bring you a lot of new content, these contents are basically updated fixedly, and you may feel bored after a long time, so crossovers with other works are very necessary, not to mention that such crossovers are often accompanied by prop updates, giving you the opportunity to use Black Ops 6 Redeem Codes to redeem some skins that are only available during the crossover period.

In the history of Call of Duty, crossovers have actually appeared a long time ago, but in recent years, with the development of the gaming industry and the Internet, they have appeared more and more frequently. And for the latest Black Ops 6, besides Squid Games, which works will cooperate with it in the future to bring more benefits to the game itself? Let’s try to recommend 5 classic crossover works.

1. Halo

As an equally classic game series, Halo was born in 2001, and the latest work Halo Infinite was launched in 2021. The series is centered on the battle between UNSC and Covenant and other alien enemies. If it can be matched with some combat modes of Black Ops 6, it can be said that it complements each other.

In terms of linkage rewards, since Halo has a series of classic characters represented by Master Chief and Arbiter, BO6 can completely set these characters as operator skins through linkage, and weapons such as Assault Rifle and Energy Sword in Halo can become excellent weapon blueprints.

As for the game mode that can be adopted for linkage, it may be set as an arena mode based on Capture The Flag mode promoted by Halo itself. In addition, it will definitely be interesting if the parasite Flood in Halo is put as a new enemy in the infection mode or even the zombie mode of Black Ops 6 multiplayer game through linkage.

2. John Wick

As a popular movie, although John Wick’s story revolves around a former killer’s journey of revenge, it seems difficult to combine it with the huge BO6, but in fact, the thrilling pursuit and fierce gunfights in the movie may echo well with the multiplayer mode of the game, thus bringing you the gunfight game content with John Wick characteristics.

In addition, if the linkage can come true, it is entirely possible to set up a special linkage-limited character featuring Baba Yaga himself and equip it with a finishing move. And if an Event Pass is to be launched for this linkage, Benelli M2 Super 90 shotgun, one of John Wick’s most trusted sidearms, can be provided to you for free.

3. Mandalorian

Star Wars is also a very classic and huge film and television work, which contains three main stories and some separate character story branches. Therefore, if it can cooperate with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, it can not only add more science fiction elements to the latter but also form a rich linkage storyline.

Of all Star Wars elements, it would be nice to have Mandalorian as the main character of the crossover, since this would allow Mandalorian himself to be introduced as a playable BO6 operator, and his iconic weapons Darksaber and Amban Sniper Rifle to be introduced as standalone weapons into the game weapon blueprint.

In addition, since there are many interesting areas in Star Wars, these areas are completely worthy of being redesigned and introduced into Black Ops 6 as map variants, such as Scud or other desert locations. However, if a new map is really launched, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with it by fully exploring it in Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies before entering the official game to challenge the new map, otherwise you may face problems such as getting lost.

4. Die Hard

In fact, this work has previously crossed over with Call of Duty series’ Black Ops: Cold War, and set detective John McClane as a playable operator. However, given that the original Warzone was closed in 2023, perhaps it is time to hold a second Die Hard crossover through Black Ops 6.

On the one hand, the new linkage can still let John McClane serve as the operator, and on the other hand, new weapons can be introduced as rewards, such as Steyr AUG. As for the specific playable mode, perhaps BO6 can directly borrow Die Hard mode in Modern Warfare 2 or Black Ops: Cold War.

5. Terminator

Besides Die Hard, another classic movie that can echo the game style of CoD: Black Ops 6 is Terminator series. Its unique costumes and aesthetics can make BO6 bring you enough unique cosmetics in the linkage. And if Arnold Schwarzenegger’s iconic T-800 is set as the operator, it will definitely increase your motivation to get the role.

In addition, Black Ops 6 can also use T-1000 as one reward through this linkage, and bring you a series of unique weapon blueprints. In terms of game mode, BO6 can try to combine it with Among Us-style and play the game by identifying and eliminating the deformed T-1000 hidden in the team.

The above are just some works we think are worthy of being linked with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. In fact, there are many more works with great potential for linkage, or you may actually hope that the game can be linked with your favorite animation or movie! Then I wish your dream can come true soon!

Call of Duty Black Ops 6 has a wide variety of weapons available, each with their own unique play style. For those who prefer heavy weapons with multiple rounds, a light machine gun like the XMG is a great fit. It is suitable for medium and long-range combat and has a strong destructive power. On top of that, you don’t have to spend too much time reloading it because it has a large magazine.

But as a heavy weapon, XMG also has the same common problems: poor design speed and large size, it is not suitable for some small maps in B06’s zombie mode, so it is more used to control groups of enemies and provide cover shooting damage. This does not mean that there is no solution. You can customize the XMG with different attachments, such as improving its accuracy, mobility or damage capacity, to reduce the impact of those weaknesses.

So in this guide, you will be introduced to some attachments, perks and equipment suitable for XMG, so that you can find the most suitable game strategy for yourself and enjoy the best experience in it. If you customize it well, you can have an XMG that can even compete with the best XM4 loadout or AK-47 loadout.

Attachments

Before choosing attachments for your weapon in CoD Black Ops 6, you need to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the weapon you want to customize. As mentioned above, as a light machine gun, XMG has enough firepower and excellent magazine capacity, which is suitable for medium and long-range combat. However, compared with other weapons with similar capabilities, XMG is less maneuverable and you need to aim longer in combat. So in order to expand the advantages and reduce the impact of the disadvantages, you can choose the following attachments.

It is worth reminding you that all the following attachments may not be suitable for all players because of different game styles. So you can try these attachments in CoD Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies first, or match them with your own attachment combination to find the attachment that best suits your XMG.

• Reinforced Barrel (Barrel): It can be used to increase the damage range of the weapon and improve the efficiency of long-range combat. It can also increase the rate of fire of bullets, achieving a one-shot lethal effect at long range.
• Ranger Foregrip (Underbarrel): It can provide you with a horizontal recoil control gain, making your shooting more accurate. The movement speed during sprinting has also been enhanced, making up for the poor mobility of XMG.
• Quickdraw Grip (Rear Grip): It can improve the most criticized disadvantage of aiming speed by players, so that you can have a faster reaction speed to defeat the enemy successfully.
• Fast Mag II/I (Magazine): It can greatly reduce the time of reloading, making the time for the enemy to cause damage to you while you are reloading greatly reduced, and you will have more time to fight against the enemy.
• Balanced Stock (Stock): This can improve the overall mobility of the weapon, making it easier for you to move around the map with this heavy light machine gun, which makes up for the biggest weakness of this weapon.

Perks

In addition to the weapon’s strengths and weaknesses, you should also consider your play style, depending on whether you are more defensive or offensive. However, some Perks are applicable to all play styles, namely Gung-Ho and Double Time.

The former allows you to reload and use equipment on the move, greatly increasing your shooting time; while the latter makes your sprint last longer. Both of these can make up for the slowness of XMG due to its large size and weight.

In addition, if you are exploring the maps in Black Ops 6 with a lot of open areas, then Perks you need are those that can help you survive better in these spaces without cover, such as Flak Jacket. It can reduce the damage caused by enemy explosions, so that you can survive longer in very exciting situations and make the powerful firepower of XMG last longer.

Or if you prefer an aggressive play style and want to take the battle situation into your own hands, then Assassin will be your best helper, which can help you track and knock down enemies or other players more effectively. The suggestion I can give you here is that you can use this Perk in some multiplayer game modes, because the enemies in the zombie mode do not have any substantial combat strategies. You just need to attack them all at once.

Equipment

For equipment, you don’t need to consider the pros and cons of XMG and your play style, just go for the best equipment in the game, such as Stim Shot and Frag Grenade. Stim Shot is the most useful tool for any build and character, and it can help you get through the tough battles that often appear in the game.

As for Frag Grenade, it can effectively cause long-range enemies to suffer from its explosion damage. In addition to this, Sticky Grenades are also a very good equipment, but you need to have a high shooting accuracy.

These are some loadouts you can choose for XMG in CoD Black Ops 6. Again, everything will be up to you, and all your weapons and equipment will serve your play style. Go and choose the best one for you and wish you a happy game!

For a large-scale shooting game like Black Ops 6, the choice of weapons and the quality of the weapons themselves are very important. These factors determine whether you can win in various BO6 game modes.

In order to give you a better experience in using weapons, the game not only allows you to redeem some skins to decorate your weapons through CoD: Black Ops 6 Redeem Codes, but also provides you with hundreds of customization options. You can use them to modify and adjust your weapons, making each of your weapons more suitable for your game style and more powerful.

These customizations are very rich, from magazines of various sizes to sights. As one of the most important components of the gun, BO6 not only provides dozens of unfamiliar sights, but each one allows you to further customize it by unlocking more different reticles.

At present, the main function of these reticles is to make your sights more interesting by changing their own colors and shapes, but a small part of them can provide you with a clearer or more vivid aiming vision to help you keep your target. Based on this, we will recommend 8 reticles worth equipping for you and introduce how to unlock them.

1. Green Dot And Purple Dot

This reticle made its debut in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, which was launched in 2007. Besides its bright color, its more important function is to enable you to get a good focus when aiming at close-range enemies.

It is worth noting that after using this reticle and killing 50 people, its green dot variant will be unlocked, and after killing 200 zombies, the purple dot variant will be unlocked. In addition, even if you have experienced this reticle in Modern Warfare, you’d better simulate it a few times in BO6 Bot Lobbies before entering the official game after getting it. After all, the two games are different in details.

2. Classic

This reticle is one of the simplest reticles in the game at present. It consists of a vertical line and a horizontal line. After the intersection, although it will occupy a considerable part of the scope, it can provide you with precise aiming focus in the center.

You can unlock this reticle after you kill 500 zombies with the selected scope. This is not very easy, so please take it seriously.

3. Missile

The idea behind this reticle is to merge the standard circular reticle with the reticle-style reticle, so that it ends up with four small lines on the outside of the circle to give you a good focus, while leaving space in the center for you to see your target easily.

As for how to unlock it, the red Missile reticle is unlocked after you kill 100 enemies with your selected optic attachment; the purple version can be unlocked by killing 400 zombies while aiming.

4. Tri-Line

As the name suggests, Tri-Line reticle uses two horizontal lines and one vertical line and assembles them into a “T” shape, allowing it to give you extra space to observe your target by removing the top vertical line.

To unlock the red Tri-Line reticle, you must kill 350 people in multiplayer with the corresponding optic attachment; the orange version will be unlocked after you get 1400 kills in Zombies mode.

5. Minimal

This reticle is similar in shape to Tri-Line reticle, being T-shaped, but it is more suitable for scopes with higher magnifications, such as Willis 3x. In addition, Minimal has a very small red dot in the middle, which helps to improve your kill accuracy.

You can get this reticle after you get 150 kills with ADS in multiplayer, and you can further unlock its purple version after getting 600 zombie kills.

6. Waveline

This is another reticle for high-magnification red dot and ACOG scopes, and its shape features an open circle at the bottom, two small dots below the circle, and a small dot in the center. This makes Waveline produce a similar effect to the dot scope, with an extra dot to help you aim.

The red Waveline can be unlocked after 250 kills, and the green one can be unlocked after killing 1000 zombies with ADS.

7. Focused

Focused reticle works similarly to Classic, taking a comprehensive approach and adding two simple elements to improve its focus. With Focused reticle equipped, you’ll see a circle in the center of four lines with a very small blue dot in the middle, allowing you to more accurately locate enemies.

In addition, the final unlocking method of this reticle is relatively simple-just kill 500 people while aiming.

8. Circled

If you’ve used the standard red dot reticle, you’ll know that its biggest drawback is a blur, which can confuse you in some cases. Based on this, Circled reticle will give you a clearer dot with a circled red dot to add another layer of focus.

As the third unlock feature of low-magnification reflex sights, Circled reticle is unlocked after you kill 150 people in multiplayer games, and the blue version is also available after killing 600 zombies.

Based on the above detailed introduction to the 8 reticles, you can choose the reticle that you like best or that best suits your gun to unlock and used to gain a better experience in your Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 battle. Have fun!

Recently, some players revealed that in Black Ops 6, some hidden background data analysis will be used to match players in the game lobby. And not only in BO6 but also in Warzone and other Call of Duty series games, the mechanism of matching the lobby is based on player skills.

It is said that this mechanism sets an SBMM rating for the player based on the comprehensive results of the player’s performance in various aspects of the game, and determines the enemies that the player will match based on this. In fact, such a game mechanism will objectively better guarantee the game experience of players of different levels.

Of course, for players, it is inevitable to be curious about their own SBMM rating in the game. However, SBMM rating is not like the public statistics such as the win rate and K/D ratio of these games. It is not public.

But it is not completely impossible for players to check it. Although it is a bit troublesome to check the data, and it requires a little patience. However, if players can have a clearer understanding of their rating, what kind of game lobby they will be matched with and what kind of opponents they will encounter in the game later, this should be acceptable to most players.

What Is SBMM Rating?

It is a game mechanism in CoD: Black Ops 6 that uses numbers to determine what kind of game lobby and game opponents a player will be matched with. For example, if a player’s most ratings in the game are between 300 and 400, it is likely that the system will match him with a lobby of opponents similar to him, rather than the lower-difficulty Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies.

And players can also upgrade your weapons and equipment based on this value through CoD Black Ops 6 Boosting to better deal with powerful enemies.

Although there is currently no information on the maximum value of these numbers, according to conventional thinking, the larger the number, the better the player’s performance in various games must be. In addition, it is revealed that this value is not determined by the player’s K/D or overall score, but takes into account many factors.

It is said that SBMM rating includes various factors such as the player’s movement and the number of shots in the game. This also shows that the operation of the system SBMM rating also takes into account the accuracy and mobility of the player in the game.

Some players also found that the strength of the team entering the game lobby is different almost every time. Sometimes when matching, you will find that it is easy to win the game in CoD: Black Ops 6 and Warzone, but sometimes it is difficult to win.

From this, it can also be inferred that another high-probability factor affecting this value is the comprehensive SBMM rating of all players in the lobby. This is for the game system to adjust SBMM rating of each player to balance the gaming experience of the players in the lobby.

Viewing Method

Players can get this data information by sending a request of information to Activision. You must first enter the official website of Activision, then click on Privacy & Data Protection page, and then click on an icon called Submit a New Request. At this time, the page will pop up the consent icon. Click and enter the location information, and then you can fill in your request. If you get an error the first time, you can try a few more times.

After that, the system page will prompt you to select the type of request you want to apply for. At this time, you need to select the blue option because SBMM rating information belongs to My Personal Information. Then, you need to enter your game account information and submit the request.

But it is worth noting that this request may require players to wait patiently for a few days before receiving a response from the developer. And since the response is sent via email, players should remember to pay more attention to your email inbox after applying.

The above is how to check SBMM rating. If players are curious about the system’s rating for you, just try it.
