Call Of Duty: Black Ops - Cold War: 10 Tips & Tricks To Get Better In Multiplayer

For quite some time Call of Duty multiplayer matches have been plagued by the subtle art of drop-shotting, which can be described as the act of going prone shortly after firing the first shot in a gunfight. To combat this annoying, habit Treyarch have changed the gameplay mechanic by taking the player out of ADS for a few moments while going prone, causing bullet spray to increase drastically. Since aim is half the battle, drop-shotting has taken a significant hit, and only really remains viable when in close proximity to an enemy.

But this is Call of Duty, where fans are forever looking for the next big exploit to get the upper hand. And as it turns out, players have discovered that there is no accuracy penalty attached to the act of jumping, which is why jump-shotting has now replaced the earlier strategy of dolphin-diving to the ground.

Doing the same while this exploit remains in place is definitely a viable strategy, especially around corners where you have the opportunity to take enemies by surprise. From a defensive standpoint, expect enemies to be jump-shotting as much as possible, and get ready to flick your aim up rather than down as a resultant.
