Key Takeaways
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players are calling on Activision to add an in-game camo tracker.
- Right now, you either need to take notes, screenshots, or memorise the camo track, which is a bit fiddly when you’re in the thick of a match.
A huge hook in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is the camo grinding. In both Zombies and multiplayer, you have set challenges for each gun that unlock new camos, until eventually you get the Nebula and Dark Matter skins.
However, there’s no way to track your camos in-game. You need to pay attention to the pop-ups and take notes or screenshots of the stages (if not looking at a guide) to know where on the camo track you are.
It’s a bit fiddly, doubly so given that the challenges eventually change from something basic like ‘X number of critical hits’ to something more specific like using the Brain Rot ammo mod.
Fans are calling on Activision to add an in-game tracker in a future update, pointing out that the last Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 3, already had such a feature: you could pin five goals to view in-game, allowing you to easily see those more complex objectives like getting kills while sliding or using hipfire.
In The Meantime, Fans Have Made A Spreadsheet
Time will tell if Activision takes this feedback on board and implements a more user-friendly way to track camo progress, but for now, the community has you covered.
One player, Reddit user gununar, put together an in-depth Google spreadsheet that you can copy and use for yourself to keep tabs on your progress. It lists every single camo (specifically for Zombies), which you can tick off as you go.
Of course, to use such a tracker, you will need to pause the game, which given the strict 15 minute timer in Solo, is a bit of a problem. Even just standing still causes it to go down. Fans are calling on an update to address this awkwardly punishing feature given that it can make completing easter eggs or just taking a break a hassle, especially with save and quit progress glitching, but again, only time will tell if it ever gets addressed. Here’s hoping.
Forced to go rogue. Hunted from within. This is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Developed by Treyarch and Raven, Black Ops 6 is a spy action thriller set in the early 90s, a period of transition and upheaval in global politics, characterized by the end of the Cold War and the rise of the United States as a single superpower. With a mind-bending narrative, and unbound by the rules of engagement, this is signature Black Ops.
The Black Ops 6 Campaign provides dynamic moment-to-moment gameplay that includes a variety of play spaces with blockbuster set pieces and action-packed moments, high-stakes heists, and cloak-and-dagger spy activity.
In a best-in-class Multiplayer experience, players will test their skills across 16 new maps at launch, including 12 core 6v6 maps and 4 Strike maps that can be played 2v2 or 6v6.
Black Ops 6 also marks the epic return of Round-Based Zombies, the fan-favorite mode where players will take down hordes of the undead in two brand-new maps at launch. Post-launch, players can look forward to even more exciting maps and groundbreaking experiences dropping into both Multiplayer and Zombies.
