Overview
- Recent Double XP events in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 have drawn criticism for failing to meet expected XP rates.
- Players have reported persistent issues regarding XP accrual since the game’s inaugural Double XP event.
- The ongoing Christmas Double XP event is also under scrutiny, with many gamers noticing lower XP than anticipated.
The gaming community has expressed dissatisfaction with the current Double XP event in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and its companion game, Warzone. Many players are claiming that the experience points (XP) rates do not match the promises made by developer Treyarch.
Since the game’s release, Treyarch has introduced a series of Double XP events. These events have grown increasingly common, creating a sense of controversy among players. While they were once a rarity, occurring once or twice during a game cycle, they are now a frequent occurrence. This shift has undeniably spurred player engagement, explaining Treyarch’s decision to host them more often.
A notable tweet from CharlieINTEL highlighted that the latest Christmas Double XP event may not be providing the advertised 2x XP rate. The tweet suggests that players using a 2XP token are earning more XP than those participating in the standard Double XP event, underscoring the community’s concerns. Notably, reactions to the tweet revealed that while some gamers experienced diminished rates (as low as 1.2x XP), others reported no issues, claiming they received the full 2x XP benefits.
Issues with Black Ops 6 and Warzone Double XP Event
It also appears like Double XP in Black Ops 6 and Warzone is not working properly. Players are seeing much lower XP earn rates with the 2XP event active. No comments from Treyarch or Raven on it as of now. — CharlieIntel (@charlieINTEL) December 27, 2024
This ongoing XP issue is not new; complaints began surfacing during the first Double XP event for Black Ops 6. Despite the mounting feedback, Treyarch has yet to address these discrepancies. The root cause of the problem remains unclear, and concerns linger that this may be a recurring issue throughout 2025, especially with continued Double XP events likely on the horizon.
Looking ahead, regardless of the controversies surrounding Double XP, players of Black Ops 6 have much to anticipate in 2025. Treyarch has consistently provided a flow of content, and there are no indications that this trend will change in the coming year.
