By Stephany Nunneley

Treyarch has updated Black Ops on PC, so if you haven’t played in a while you may wish to load up Steam and patch it.

Here’s some of the major changes you can expect when and if you do:

• Added support for mods in preparation for the upcoming tools release.
• Addressed various MP & Zombie exploits.
• Improved memory utilization in MP.
• Improved DLC filter in server browser – you can now hide any servers running content you do not own.
• Corrected issue which sometimes required repurchase of emblems or clan tags on weapons.
• Address some cases in which player could not receive Zombie invites.
• Replaced RPG with Grim Reaper in Gun Game Wager Match.
• Fine-tuned napalm and bombing-run damage indoors.
• Prevented rare invulnerability issue.
• Demolition bombs can no longer explode and be defused at the same time.
• Spy plane now activates in One in the Chamber in all cases.
• The “Sprint Kills” challenge for Steady Aim perk now rewards the player with the correct number of kills.
• Addressed a rare issue where a hacked camera spike would not function properly if the hacker also had a camera spike that was destroyed.
• Recording a clip with the speed mode for 2 cameras set to .1 will no longer increase in speed when switching perspectives back and forth.
• Improvements to Zipline functionality when viewed in Theater mode.
• Settings from custom games are all cleared and no longer carry over from one custom match to another.
• Nova gas will now affect players that are standing over their tactical insertion.
• Hardcore players who kill another teammate in Second Chance now lose the proper amount of points.
• Calling in a Chopper Gunner immediately after getting shot down in a Gunship will no longer end the Chopper Gunner run prematurely.
