Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players have serious issues with Nuketown’s capture point B in the Domination game mode. Of every location in every Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 map, Nuketown’s point B might be the most chaotic in the entire game.

Nuketown is arguably Call of Duty‘s most iconic map. It has appeared in all the Black Ops games, and is popular with players thanks to its small size and chaotic action. This makes it a fan-favorite for quick camo grinds, as the next gunfight is never more than a few seconds away. It was reintroduced to Black Ops 6 a few days after its launch, although its inclusion was simply a formality at this point. The Nuketown 24/7 multiplayer playlist is a staple at this point, and remains one of the most played in the entire game, despite the repetition of one map. However, there is a problem with Nuketown on Domination.

Call of Duty Fans Call for Return of Classic Killstreak

Call of Duty fans call for a classic killstreak from the series’ past to make a significant return in a future Black Ops 6 update.

A video shared by Redditor Prizzog showed why capturing point B in Domination on Call of Duty: Black Ops 6‘s Nuketown is a pain. The point is so tiny, and can be hit with grenades from anywhere on the map. This means that throughout the entire game, point B is essentially one big grenade magnet, making it extremely difficult to capture. Even with a perk like Flak Jacket, it can be impossible to survive the onslaught of utility raining down on the capture point.

There are some who feel that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 punishes players who play the objective. Capturing point B on Nuketown can often take several lives, with players feeding themselves into the meat grinder to capture the flag. It’s hard to dispute that objective players are being massively punished because right now, death is near certain. One user in the thread joked that when a teammate puts down a Trophy System onto the capture point, “I just want to give them a fat kiss.” There’s clearly a sentiment that point B is too tough at the moment, but the solution is tough. Expanding the site is a possibility, but even then, there isn’t much room to work with in that area of the map.

Hopefully, Treyarch is able to find a solution that makes all players happy, although that is obviously far easier said than done. In the meantime, the studio continues work on Season 1 of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, with more content to come.

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.
