Call Of Duty: Mobile Season 7 Patch Notes
Changes to Multiplayer
There will be a number of new Ranked Match rewards available in Call of Duty: Mobile Season 7 along with a Grand Master Bonus. Once players reach Grand Master III or higher in both modes, they will receive an XP bonus in the other lower Ranked MP or BR before leveling up to Grand Master. Winning your first game of the day will now also grant you Rank XP. The developer has also adjusted the weight of performance score and result score along with Rank XP, which has been modified to increase the proportion of performance points and decrease the proportion of result points.
The new season will have two map pools for Ranked games, the Generic Map Pool and the new Seasonal Map Pool. Players ranked Pro or higher (3001 points and higher) may randomly select maps from both ranked pools. Players below Pro will only be able to select maps from the Generic Map pool. This will likely reduce queue times for players ranked Pro and above.
Ranked Mode updates
The developer has removed certain maps from various modes that had overly complicated pathways and unnecessary pain points.
Team Deathmatch: Scrapyard removed, Favela, Apocalypse, and Summit added.
Search & Destroy: Hardhat and Vacant removed, Favela, Summit, and Takeoff added.
Domination: Hardhat, Vacant and Hacienda removed, Favela and Nuketown added.
Hardpoint: Hardhat, Scrapyard, and Vacant removed, Apocalypse and Raid added.
New Weapon and Operator Skill
The Call of Duty: Mobile developer has added a new operator skill called the Claw. This lethal firearm has ricochet ballistic rounds, a rapid rate of fire, and a rapid-fire spread shot. A lightweight SMG called the Switchblade X9 will also be added with this patch. The Switchblade X9 has high mobility and low recoil. A new attachment called the Branson will also be added which causes the first 2 bullets to fire faster.
Changes to Isolated and battle royale
Call of Duty: Mobile Season 7 New Vision City will bring a number of changes to the game. Passive skills have been adjusted so players now have more options to choose from. The existing Isolated map in the battle royale mode will include a new region near Nuketown called New Vision City. This high-tech metropolis newly built in Isolated is invaded by Post-Humans. Players will meet Motoko and other members of the Public Security Section 9 in the new area of New Vision City. Clearing the terminal virus and the rampaging GRUNT-52s will give players the chance to receive cyberware enhancements. These cannot be changed or reversed once chosen. You can choose from one of four options:
Bee Scout: Lets you control the Bee Scout to scan and detect enemies at long distances. The Bee Scout hacks into your enemies to reveal their current location.
Smart Shotgun: Used to track enemies who are within a certain distance.
Fist of Iron: Upgrades that let you sprint faster and jump higher. This can also be used to take down enemies.
Virtual Vision: Gives you the ability to locate nearby high-tier loot.
Players also get access to a special revive effect.
