Is Mule Kick Available in Black Ops 6 Zombies?

One of the staples of Call of Duty Zombies, the Mule Kick perk always makes the cut of favorites for the fans since it allows a player to carry three weapons at once. Is this powerful perk available in Black Ops 6, though? Let’s find out.

Is Mule Kick in Black Ops 6?

Unfortunately, Mule Kick is not in Black Ops 6 Zombies at launch. The game has a great list of perks, including old favorites like Jugger-Nog, Stamin-Up, and Speed Cola, but Mule Kick is not one of them. But who knows? Maybe future updates or DLC will bring new perks into the game, including Mule Kick.

The Three-Weapon Glitch

The actual Mule Kick perk may not be here, but you do have a great cheat where you can, for a limited time, hold three weapons. This is how to do it:

  • First off, pick up two guns. You can buy them off the wall, get them out of the Mystery Box, or you can begin with a custom load.
  • Find a ladder on the map and begin to climb.
  • As you climb, equip your knife.
  • When you finally reach the top, exit the ladder. If you’ve successfully glitched, your knife should still be equipped.
  • You are now able to pick up a third weapon from the wall, Mystery Box, or the ground.

Jump Bug Fixed in Latest CS2 Update

The latest CS2 update dropped by Valve will iron out some of the problems that persisted with the game. Among all the fixes, the inconsistent jumping bug has been squashed ahead of the major.

The mechanical changes brought into the game will make the jump more consistent through its entire motion which will bound to make the game more fair at the cost of certain utility line-ups getting altered. The impact of this update will be showcased in the coming CS2 tournaments and only time will tell if this brings about any significant changes.

You can read the complete patch notes below:

[ JUMPING ]

  • Improved jump height consistency to be within 0.015625 of a unit regardless of distance from the map origin at coordinate (0,0,0).
  • Previously, in both CS:GO and CS2, jump height could vary by up to 0.03125 of a unit depending on the distance from the map origin.
  • Improved consistency of successfully landing on surfaces very close to the maximum height of a jump.
  • Jump height is still affected by stamina; when using cl_showpos 2, stamina at takeoff is reported and output is color coded based on possible jump height.
  • Fixed a bug with cl_showpos display sometimes showing incorrect jump height when jumping from sloped surfaces.
  • Fixed some cases where the client would be pulled back down during a jump because the server disagreed that the jump had taken place.

[ MISC ]

  • Adjusted weapon pickup logic while near the C4, prioritizing defusing over accidental weapon pick-up.
  • Enemies will now consistently play a flinch animation on the closest hit when the bullet goes through two hitboxes of equal priority (e.g. when both right and left legs get hit).
  • HE grenade explosions within smoke now clear the accumulated smoke screen effect on players inside that smoke within range of the HE grenade explosion.
  • Stability improvements.

[ MAPS ]
Dust II

  • Fixed a gap in geometry.

Casa Azzurri in Iserlohn hosted a panel for Euro2024 with the Ministry of Tourism, Lazio Regional Authorities and the FIGC: “The Italian National Football Team’s role is pivotal for the export of Made in Italy”

Those taking part included MP Gianluca Caramanna, deputy and political advisor from the Ministry of Tourism, Lazio Council Treasurer and Councillor for Agriculture and Food Sovereignty Giancarlo Righini and the FIGC Vice Secretary General and Revenue Area Manager Giovanni Valentini

The main player at ‘Casa Azzurri’ is Italian tourism, with special focus on sports tourism. This panel promoted by the Ministry of Tourism, partner of the FIGC for these European Championships in Germany, ENIT and the Lazio Regional Authorities, discussed the opportunities that sport offers Italy: on the one hand events promoted in the country that help to increase incoming tourism and, on the other, the ability of Italian sportspeople in any discipline to convey the image of the “BelPaese” all over the world.

On stage, Gianluca Caramanna, Member of Parliament and political advisor at the Ministry of Tourism, the Council Treasurer, Councillor for Agriculture and Food Sovereignty Giancarlo Righini from the Lazio Regional Authority (the other official partner of ‘Casa Azzurri’), and the FIGC Vice Secretary General and Revenue Area Manager Giovanni Valentini.

“Sporting events,” highlighted Mr Caramanna, “are a central asset of our tourism. In fact, here we are, in Germany, a country whose inhabitants so often choose Italy for their sporting activities. This is a winning model that allows Italy to represent an added value in terms of tourist numbers. I’d also like to mention another event that will be taking place over the next few weeks in Rome, the table tennis world championships, bringing tourists from all over Asia, where table tennis is a national sport in many countries. We are doing an excellent job also because tourism is a focal point for interministerial tables, work that is bringing great results.”

SAG-AFTRA Strike With Video Game Voice And Performance Artists To Continue

SAG-AFTRA Strike With Video Game Voice And Performance Artists To Continue

The ongoing strike by SAG-AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists) against major video game studios continues to gain attention as negotiations remain deadlocked. Despite several negotiation attempts, no agreement has been reached regarding the union’s demands for improved working conditions, particularly focusing on the protection of voice and performance artists from the misuse of artificial intelligence (AI).

The union issued a statement after its most recent round of talks with prominent companies like Activision Productions, Disney Character Voices, Electronic Arts, Insomniac Games, and WB Games, indicating that the strike will persist until a deal that satisfies the union’s demands is met. The primary issue remains the potential abuse of AI technologies, where actors fear their voices and performances could be replicated without their consent or proper compensation, putting their livelihoods at risk.

This dispute has been simmering since July, when the strike began after more than a year of failed negotiations. SAG-AFTRA’s President, Fran Drescher, has been vocal in expressing frustration, insisting that the companies must take the actors’ concerns seriously and ensure they’re protected from AI exploitation.

The strike has had widespread ramifications for the gaming industry, with projects potentially being delayed or disrupted. Voice and performance actors play a crucial role in modern video games, where immersive storytelling and character portrayal have become key elements. As gaming technology evolves, AI poses a real threat to the traditional ways these performances are captured and utilized.

SAG-AFTRA remains firm in its stance: they will not settle for a contract that allows companies to exploit AI at the expense of their members. While the union remains open to future negotiations, they have clearly stated they will only return to the table once game studios offer terms that respect and safeguard their members’ rights.

This prolonged standoff is not only about the immediate concerns of job security and fair wages, but it also raises broader ethical questions about the future of creative work in the age of AI. Voice and performance actors are facing the challenge of preserving their roles in an industry increasingly reliant on automation and machine learning. Will AI eventually replace human talent, or can there be a balance where technology enhances rather than exploits artistic contributions?

The outcome of this strike could set a precedent not just for the video game industry, but for other sectors grappling with similar issues around AI and labor. The union’s fight serves as a reminder that as technology advances, it must be paired with safeguards that protect the people who contribute their skills and creativity to the industry.

While no new dates have been set for further negotiations, SAG-AFTRA remains hopeful that an agreement can be reached. Until then, the strike continues, with many watching closely to see how this conflict between human creativity and AI technology will unfold.

The debate around AI’s role in creative industries is likely to intensify as these technologies become more widespread. If companies can bypass the need for human input, using AI-generated content without adequate compensation to the original creators, it could have dire implications not only for voice and performance actors but also for writers, musicians, and other creatives.

At this point, the strike shows no signs of abating, and its impact on the gaming industry could deepen the longer it lasts. For the moment, the future of voice and performance artistry in video games remains uncertain as the battle for fair treatment and protection against AI exploitation continues.

FaZe ZooMaa Unveils $100,000 Black Ops 6 Tournament with CDL Pro Player

FaZe Clan’s Thomas “ZooMaa” Paparatto has officially announced a major $100,000 tournament to celebrate the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and the beginning of the 2025 Call of Duty League (CDL) season. This highly anticipated event will feature a series of three tournaments, each with a prize of $25,000, and will bring together some of the top Call of Duty pros in the league.

This tournament series is designed to highlight both AR (assault rifle) and SMG (submachine gun) duos from various CDL teams. One notable pairing is the “Tiny Terrors” duo of Simp and aBeZy from Atlanta FaZe, who will team up with an AR duo from a different CDL team. These combinations allow players to show off their skills alongside different teammates, offering fans a fresh look at potential in-game synergies.

All the tournament action will be broadcast live on ZooMaa’s Twitch channel, with scheduled matches starting on October 29, November 1, and concluding on November 5-6. Matches will take place at 12 p.m. PST (3 p.m. EST) on the first two days, and at 10 a.m. PST (1 p.m. EST) on the final days.

Although FaZe ZooMaa has yet to announce which maps and weapons will be available for the tournament, there is speculation around the inclusion of maps like Vault, Pyback, Vorkuta, and Skyline. In terms of weapon choices, the Model L, GPR 91, PP-919, and Jackal PDW have emerged as early favorites among pros.

This announcement has created a buzz in the Call of Duty community, especially following recent roster changes in the CDL. Teams like LA Thieves have formed a super squad featuring former Toronto Ultra stars Scrappy and Envoy, while others, such as OpTic Texas and Atlanta FaZe, have stuck with their core lineups.

The tournament not only promises to provide thrilling matchups but also acts as a warm-up for players before the official CDL season kicks off. With the mix of talent and the introduction of new game elements, it will be interesting to see how the pros adapt to Black Ops 6, especially with some expressing concerns about the quality of the current map pool.

As fans eagerly await the action-packed matches, ZooMaa’s tournament series has positioned itself as a must-watch event for any Call of Duty enthusiast.

PUBG Mobile Global Championship 2024: Everything You Need to Know

As the world of mobile esports gears up for one of its most anticipated events, the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) 2024 is set to raise the stakes higher than ever before. This year’s tournament will see the best PUBG Mobile teams from across the globe compete for a whopping $3 million prize pool, making it a true test of skill, strategy, and endurance in the ever-growing competitive landscape of mobile gaming.

League Stage: The Road to Glory

The PMGC 2024 kicks off with an intense League Stage starting October 31st and running through November 24th in Malaysia. This phase is not just a warm-up but a battlefield of its own, with 48 elite teams fighting to secure their place in the ultimate showdown: the Grand Finals. The League Stage is split into three parts: Group Stage, Survival Stage, and Last Chance, with each segment progressively tougher than the last. As the competition tightens, only the top 15 teams will earn a coveted spot in the Grand Finals, set to take place in the United Kingdom from December 6th to 8th.

The format is designed to push teams to their limits, with each stage being a knockout round, where every decision, every engagement could determine their fate. This structure ensures that only the best of the best make it through, providing spectators with high-octane matches that showcase the sheer talent and adaptability of the teams.

Guild Esports and IHC Esports: Key Contenders

In a unique twist for this year, Guild Esports, co-owned by international soccer icon David Beckham, has been given a direct invitation to the Grand Finals. This surprise entry adds an extra layer of intrigue, making Guild Esports one of the key teams to watch. Having bypassed the rigorous League Stage, Guild Esports will have fresh legs heading into the finals, a potential advantage that could shift the dynamics of the tournament.

Another standout team is IHC Esports from Mongolia, who earned an automatic spot in the PMGC 2024 by claiming the title in last year’s championship. Despite a relatively modest performance in regional tournaments this year, IHC’s presence as reigning champions ensures that they cannot be overlooked.

Regional Representation:

One of the most exciting aspects of PMGC is its truly global nature, with teams from every corner of the world competing. This year, Southeast Asia leads the charge, fielding 11 teams, including some of the region’s finest. Central and South Asia contribute an impressive nine teams, while the EMEA region (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) sends 10 teams to the battlefield.

The Americas will also be well represented, with nine teams, including some of the biggest names in the industry, such as Faze Clan and iNCO Gaming. Powerhouse regions like China, South Korea, and Japan will field four, three, and two teams respectively, making for an exceptionally competitive tournament.

From Bigetron Knights and Vampire Esports to Team Secret and Natus Vincere, this year’s lineup is stacked with talent and experience. Fans can expect a wide range of playstyles, from aggressive rush tactics to highly strategic rotations, making for an unpredictable and thrilling event.

Prize Pool Breakdown: Who Takes Home the Glory?

The $3 million prize pool is split between the League Stage and the Grand Finals, with $1.58 million up for grabs during the League Stage and $1.42 million reserved for the Finals. However, the exact distribution of these winnings remains under wraps, leaving both players and fans speculating. It’s safe to say, though, that the team that conquers the Grand Finals will walk away with a hefty payday, alongside the prestigious title of PUBG Mobile Global Champions.

Key Teams to Watch: The Giants and Dark Horses

Several teams have already made their mark as favorites heading into the tournament. Bigetron Knights have long been a force to be reckoned with, known for their aggressive gameplay and quick adaptability. Vampire Esports, another standout, have earned a reputation for their deadly precision and tactical prowess. On the other hand, Twisted Minds bring a unique approach to the competition, often catching opponents off guard with unexpected strategies.

Meanwhile, DRX from South Korea and Virtus Pro from EMEA are known for their methodical and disciplined playstyle, often excelling in late-game situations where decision-making is key. These teams are well-versed in survival tactics, often playing the long game to secure high placements and valuable points.

Then there’s Natus Vincere, a team synonymous with success across multiple esports titles. Though primarily known for their dominance in PC games, their PUBG Mobile roster is just as formidable, making them a fan favorite for this tournament.

What to Expect:

The PUBG Mobile Global Championship 2024 promises to be a defining moment in mobile esports. With a diverse lineup of teams, a massive prize pool, and a format designed to reward both skill and strategy, fans are in for a treat. Whether you’re rooting for the seasoned veterans or the hungry underdogs, this year’s PMGC will undoubtedly deliver some of the most intense and unforgettable moments in esports history.

As the countdown to October 31st begins, all eyes are on Malaysia and the United Kingdom, where the world’s top teams will converge for what could be the most thrilling PMGC to date.
