Hardcore Call of Duty fans are passionate, as are the game's developers, and when the two work in tandem, greatness is within reach.
Treyarch design director Matt Scronce has been front and center on Black Ops 7's deployment thus far as a face of the devs, and he took it a step further today by confirming some changes that fans have been asking for since BO7's multiplayer deep dive info was revealed earlier this week.
"We pulled the trigger on a few Perk changes for the upcoming Black Ops 7 beta based off of feedback this week," Scronce said on Twitter/X. "We will of course gather data and feedback throughout the beta and make additional adjustments for launch. Thanks!"
When the Perks for BO7 multiplayer were revealed this past Monday, many spoke out about how there weren't many difficult choices to be made, specifically with Perk One having too many good options while two and three didn't have much to speak of.
Scronce today announced that Dexterity will move from Perk One to Perk Three, Scavenger will move from Perk Two to Perk One, and Looper will go from Perk Three to Perk Two. And the reaction on social media has been a positive one, especially in relation to how quickly the change has been made.
This is what betas are for, so I wouldn't expect such changes to happen so quickly once the game is in live-service mode, but Scronce is setting a tough precedent for this sort of thing moving forward when players have complaints. I hope Treyarch can live up to it.
The BO7 beta begins next week in early access on Oct. 2 before going into open beta on Oct. 5, and the full game drops on Nov. 14.
