Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will implement a new multiplayer 10v10 mode on January 15, confirmed by the reliable source CharlieINTEL. The game is going to be the new seasonal support, and it comes alongside the ‘Quad Feed’ of double XP events, which are most likely linked to the annual ‘115 Day’ celebration that takes place in the Call of Duty community.
The multiplayer of Black Ops 7 is going to host a 10v10 moshpit tomorrow, which is some huge news. The source of this information is very trustworthy since it comes from CharlieINTEL’s Twitter directly. A 10v10 playlist is coming for a game, which some online say is dead already?? But first, let’s take it one step at a time.
What exactly is a 10v10 moshpit? To put it simply, a moshpit is a playlist that randomly puts you in and out of different game modes with a total of 20 players instead of the standard 12. It is the pure, beautiful chaos of grenade-spamming and dying in the spawn that is hard to get tired of; total chaos; beautiful and pure chaos plus infinite grenades and dying in the spawn point. The regular 6v6 multiplayer matches might feel like tea parties – civilized ones with no or few interruptions. This new mode comes tomorrow, January 15th. So, mark the day on your calendar or just don’t, because you will probably encounter it as soon as you log in.
Therefore, the tweet could not be more precise, yet the reactions… oh boy, the replies are where the real fun is. It is like miniature Call of Duty community, with all its strengths and weaknesses, packed in just one thread. You can spot the hype guys, the haters, the ones who are in daze, and the ones who are just pleading for Nuketown over there. Let’s examine it all.
On the other hand, the gamers’ excitement is really palpable. A player named SlaYa412 makes a comment “Shit actually might be littttt,” which is a perfect illustration of the cautious optimism that has taken over. Moreover, some players are already predicting that a slaughter is coming: “It’s going to be a major slip n slide party,” a very colorful metaphor indeed, predicts JB IGOR. Not to mention the group, the endless and constant group: “Need 10v10 Nuketown.” This is what many are saying. IIGladiatorX even goes so far as to say that “records gonna get broken day one” if that happens. There is an open demand, and it is loud.
But then, just a little further down, there is a very different vibe. “Does anyone give an actual shit about this game anymore?” is the sarcastic tone and sincere question of Twizted142. KINGARMANI0170 simply states “the game garbage no matter what day 🤣”. And 141GoingDark delivers the ultimate insult: “The game died before it released.” Ouch. That is a rather brutal sentiment.
This is the classic Call of Duty cycle, isn’t it? A new thing gets announced and immediately after the community is divided into two groups: “THIS IS AWESOME” and “THIS GAME IS TRASH”. Most of the time there are no people in between. “Ha, ha, ha, still not going to play it though,” is Lufc_81’s, sarcastic comment who has come to offer bigger issues, pointing to Activision and Raven Software as the ones who are at fault for not adequately dealing with cheaters, saying it’s “as bad as it was way back in 2020.” That’s a hefty grievance that overshadows a mere new playlist issue.
Moreover, there is confusion. The same “What the hell is 115 day 2xp quad feed?” is the question raised by brockoli65004. It seems just like a simple question! For the uninitiated, 115 is a number very much associated with the Black Ops series’ Zombies mode (don’t ask, it’s the element number for Unobtainium). January 15th (1/15) is turned into a community celebration day. BraedenHuber interjects to clarify, saying that the double XP to be awarded might be “for celebrating 115 day.” Thus, the new playlist isn’t happening all by itself, but is part of an event.
You can also see the practical requests in between the hype and the hate. Users are inquiring about spawn fixes on a map called Yakei and Hardcore mode changes. One of the players is questioning the possibility of a small map moshpit. Another one wants Search and Rescue back. It sounds like: “hey, while you’re at it…” – a whole list of suggestions.
And here comes the irony. In the middle of ‘nobody cares’, the community is clearly engaged. This cycle of hype and criticism is a staple of the first-person shooter genre. The game is available on PlayStation and Xbox, platforms where these debates rage fiercest.
