Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warhas undoubtedly improved since its rocky launch. However, there are still some features thatCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Waris lacking, including one that appeared in all the previousBlack Opsgames.
This is hardly the first time that fans have made requests for an old feature. Just over a week ago, a popular post on Reddit saw gamers reminiscing overCall of Duty: Advanced Warfare’s scorestreaks. With that game letting players fully customize streaks, many are calling for the mechanic to return in a futureCall of Dutygame. While it remains to be seen if that will happen, gamers have already moved on to asking for another feature. This time around, it is tied to map voting.

Specifically,Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warplayersare calling for the classified option to return to the map selection screen. In pastBlack Opsgames, players could choose this option to get a random map from the game’s lineup. If the playlist was moshpit-related, the game mode would also be randomized. As pointed out by Redditor Mathiasxd148-, this “small suggestion” could improve the map voting experience significantly.
Currently, when players see two maps they dislike, they are forced to choose the lesser of two evils. As shown in the Redditor’s mockup for what the improved map voting section would look like, however, the random option would be placed to the right of the two map choices. In this example, Mathiasxd148- uses Miami and Satellite, two unpopularCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warmaps, to prove their point. If the random option existed, players would have a much easier time avoiding certain maps.
The “classified” option also suits theBlack Opsfranchise due to the undercover missions that the Operators go on. The idea that gamers could be sent to play on a map they were not expecting is fitting, as is the information on the location being redacted. While this is a small touch, the “classified” option is one that builds off the franchise’s espionage themes and fits perfectly withintheBlack Opsuniverse. As pointed out by Mathiasxd148-, it is truly strange not to see the option due to its appearance in everyBlack Opsgame prior toCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.
It will be interesting to see if Treyarch acknowledges the fan’s request. While the game is a bit far into its life cycle to add new features,the Die Hardpoint modewas made permanent after players pushed for it to stick around — showing that Treyarch is willing to listen to its fans if players make their voices heard.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold Waris available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
