CoD: Black Ops 7 Dev Reveals Highly Requested Changes To Aim Assist, Perks, And Movement

Here is a 192-word summary of the key points from the news article: Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is set to release on November 14, with Treyarch revealing several highly requested changes to the game's multiplayer. The most notable change is to the Dexterity perk, which will no longer be required for players to aim down sights while sliding or diving. Adjustments have also been made to the sliding and mantling mechanics, with slide speed and distance reduced, and mantle speeds increased. Perk changes include shifting some perks to different categories and combining unpopular perks to create more powerful options. For example, Tac Mask is moving from slot 1 to slot 2, while Shadow and Engineer are being combined. Aim assist changes have also been implemented, with rotational aim assist now requiring the right thumbstick to be moving in the direction of the target. Additionally, the Carry Forward program has been canceled, meaning Black Ops 6 items will not transfer over. The game will also launch with reduced skill-based matchmaking, a change long requested by the community.
