A Black Ops 6 player’s Nuke attempt is foiled by an insane trick shot.
Some question whether the trick shot gamer was cheating after seeing the killcam.
Cheating continues to be an issue for the Black Ops 6 community.

One Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 player has had their first attempt at earning the Nuke Scorestreak thwarted by an insane trick shot. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players have earned various Scorestreak rewards since the game was released, but this player’s attempt is a tragic tale.

Since Black Ops 6 was released, it has hit impressive player count numbers for the Call of Duty franchise and Xbox Game Pass. Among this massive initial player base are gamers grinding weapon camos, completing Multiplayer challenges, and progressing through Zombies Easter eggs. Like any other Call of Duty title, Black Ops 6‘s multiplayer features a long track of Scorestreak rewards that may increase a player’s chance of success. Among the returning rewards is the Nuke, which finishes a given match by killing all the players on the map, returning them to the lobby. One gamer narrowly missed their chance of getting their first Nuke, thanks to a questionable opponent.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Jam-Packed Season 1 is a Great Sign For The Future

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has just revealed its roadmap for Season 1 and it’s packed full of content, which is an undeniably good sign for the future.

Reddit user BSoloe recently shared a Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 clip in which they’re progressing through a Scorestreak on the Skyline map. Unlike many of the Black Ops 6 maps, Skyline is a medium-sized area that decreases the likelihood of players dying shortly after spawning. The video begins with the gamer getting an elimination with their SMG near the billiard table before turning to face the pool. After running toward the pool, the player is killed, and their killcam raises more questions than answers. The opponent that killed BSoloe, Maple Syrup, ran up some nearby stairs, jumped through a window into the pool, quickly turned, and no-scoped the prospective Nuke-user as they fell.

This Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Player Lost Their Nuke in a Jaw-Dropping Way

As the Nuke requires players to get 30 consecutive kills without leaning on other Scorestreak rewards, this player had racked up a massive body count on Skyline. While some Call of Duty fans have speculated on whether this player is cheating, trick shots have been a popular method to get kills since the franchise’s early days. Because the killcam doesn’t feature enemy outlines like when a player has Vision Pulse, the suggestion that they’re cheating could be accurate. Like other recent Call of Duty titles, Black Ops 6 features the Ricochet anti-cheat, but some players have found a way to circumnavigate it to give themselves an unfair advantage. Cheating was even spotted during Black Ops 6‘s beta testing phase, which hints at how dedicated these players are to getting a leg up on the competition.

Although BSoloe is seemingly disappointed that they were unable to get their Nuke, this kill stopped the match from ending prematurely. Because Treyarch continues to update Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, there may be ban waves in the future that reduce the likelihood of kills like this. As the enemy’s name is displayed in the killcam, Treyarch may take a look at the footage before deciding whether this person was cheating or not.

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.
