Fully detailed in a blog post onCall of Duty’s website, the “New Tools of the Trade” should add more dimension to playstyles. The new Scorestreak coming toBlack Ops Cold Waris called Strafe Run. A mid-tier Scorestreak, the player will be able to call upon a pair of jet fighters to shower lead and rockets down upon the DZ, perfect for racking up kills or holding a line in an area. Strafe Run features a longer active period and higher kill potential than other Scorestreaks like Napalm Strike, making it a solid multiplayer option. Seeing as how Treyarchmade major changes to Scorestreaksduring its Season 2 update, it’ll be interesting to see Strafe Run’s point cost.
The new vehicle being added toCall of Dutyis the Cargo Truck. Available across Multi-Team modes, the Cargo Truck is a massive vehicle capable of fitting several Operators in its open truck bed, in addition to the driver and copilot seats. While lacking in speed, the truck makes up for in sheer firepower, coming equipped with a mounted machine gun turret that allows a teammate to provide cover against any incoming threats. Players will be able to use the Cargo Truck on Ruka, Alpine, and Golova at launch. Later in the season, the Cargo Truck will be available on Duga,the new region coming to Outbreakand other Multi-Team modes.
The new Scorestreak and vehicle, among many other things, should add plenty of exciting new elements, both toBlack Ops Cold WarandWarzone. Interestingly, the Cargo Truck may not be the only new vehicle arriving soon. According to a new leak, eightnew vehicles with ties toBlack Ops Cold Warmay be headed toWarzone. The names of the vehicle files should pique the interest of anyCoDfan, which include titles like “Big Bird,” “Police Car,” and “Medical Transport.”
WhileBlack Ops Cold Warhas certainly become one of the most successfulCall of Dutytitles ever, there is a portion of players who still favor 2019’sModern Warfare. While the game itself has fallen out of the spotlight with time, fans of the game will be pleased to know that none other thanCaptain Price is coming backas a new Operator for Season 3.
