Treyarch has released another brand new patch for Black Ops Cold War that fixes some minor issues.

If you were worried that Treyarch might not be updating Black Ops Cold War as much as it needed to since launch, then it looks like you are very wrong. In the end, the developer released the first major patch for the game on Friday, November 20, and shortly after that, released another patch, mainly related to the zombie mode.

Now, just a couple of days after this update, Treyarch has already released another update for Black Ops Cold War, making it the third in just a few days. The patch itself is relatively minor and addresses a few small but notable issues in the game's multiplayer and zombie modes.

The biggest changes in the November 23 update for multiplayer and zombies

The most notable fix in this new update, at least in multiplayer, has to do with spawning. There have been two minor fixes here, one specifically for Hardpoint and one for dual-map weighting.

In the end, any fix, no matter how small, is welcome given that it's always a point of contention in the community.

In addition to the introduction, we also fixed an issue with body armor not providing protection to players in Hardcore mode and a UI bug in Fireteam: Dirty Bomb.

This new update fixed a bug with Megaton Zombies that caused them to have permanent immunity.

As for the zombies, a bug related to the improvement of the Ring of Fire field has also been fixed, as well as the Megaton boss. In rare cases, the creature sometimes became invincible.
