Every player who enters Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's Zombie game mode likely approaches it differently. From individual strategies to game exploits, players quickly learn how to survive the dangers of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War zombies.
As players flood into the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies campaign, they are finding new ways to navigate the map. There have been some major changes since fans last delved into Zombies, but that has not stopped them from already finding interesting exploits.
In a clip shared by TikTok user StarkLandon, the player points out a spot which has made them invulnerable to zombies. During a part of the mission in which the portal opens up, players have an opportunity to climb on top of the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombie Pack-a-Punch machine. Once on top of the machine, zombies are unable to reach the player, allowing them to shoot the undead from a safe position.
Exploits like this are not uncommon finds among the Call of Duty Zombies community. With the undead growing in power every round, it is not surprising that players seek various ways to bypass the oncoming horde. Still, a glitch is a glitch, and players are not supposed to be able to climb on top of the Pack-a-Punch machine to avoid all damage.
Even after being notified, it may take some time before the developers are able to patch this glitch. From a user perspective, the glitch is only beneficial as long as the Black Ops Cold War player has ammo in their gun. Once they run out, they will be stuck with almost no way to reload.
While players could camp using this spot for a while, it does not do much more then prolong the inevitable. It also seems that players who have triggered this glitch are only able to climb during a certain time period. This means that once they get down, they would return to normal Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies gameplay.
As far as glitches go, this seems to be no more harmful than players "training" zombies in circles or leaving a single zombie alive at the end of the round. However, it wouldn't be surprising to see developers remove it in a future update.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
