Call of Duty® Black Ops Cold War Zombies Survival Tips & Tricks Guide

Call of Duty® Black Ops Cold War Zombies is the latest call of duty game and has got the whole gaming world on strings with several seasoned call of duty players loving the return to zombie enemies.

Playing against zombies is a different feeling entirely and the newest call of duty game brings this feeling to you. Staying alive in this cold war game is the real deal and only the best can do this for long, but not to worry; we’ve put together a list of simple tricks you can use to get better at the game and show some zombies who is boss.

Without further ado, here are some tips for you;

Pack Different Weapons

You are only allowed to carry a limited number of weapons so make it count. Between yourself and your team members, ensure you vary the weapons you hold to match any enemy you may face.

Vary your weapons across damage capacity, recoil, speed, accuracy, range, difficulty among several other things to give your team a better fighting chance against the rampaging zombies. You do not have to waste space by carrying more than one of some types of weapons like the sniper; just a single sniper on a member of your team is enough – preferably on a member with the skill to use it.

Train Zombies

No, I don’t mean teaching them good manners. This term is used when you make all the zombies chasing you fall into a straight line or something close to it. This gives you a chance to easily kill them all while saving ammo in the process.

But how do you do this?

Simple, running in a circle will make all the zombies chasing you come together in a small space. You need to be careful where you do this strategy. You need somewhere with a clearing to pull this off effectively.

Some popular zombie training zones include the penthouse, crash site, and yard.

Armor Can Prolong Your Life

As if this isn’t obvious already, armor will add protection against the zombies and can give you a chance to run out of unexpected attacks before you die.

If you’ve been playing the previous versions of call of duty, you might have gotten used to playing without armor, but in this latest release, armor has been added and its importance cannot be overemphasized.

Buy armor and repair your damaged armor using your salvage. You can also get a decent level of repair to your armor from enemy supplies but do not bank on this as they are few and far between.

Stay Close but Don’t Fall Over Each Other

Your chances of making it far and completing the mission with your team rest on you and your team’s ability to stay close enough to each other.

Now, this is where it gets a little confusing. As much as you want to be close to your teammates so no one is left behind or cannot receive backup cover, staying too close can also be detrimental.

Staying too close to each other will make it easier for the zombies to easily swarm and overpower your team. That safe distance from each other is what is required.

Split Spending Between Teammates

You’re going to be spending a lot of points if you must complete tasks; from the very first task to the last.

One of the first tasks you will be asked to complete is turning on the power. This requires opening several doors with points.

This is a team game and if one member is lacking, it affects the other members. And that is why you must split the spending cost across the team so no member is left without points or with a depleted stack.

Vehicles Can Also Be Weapons

You may be forgiven if you thought the various vehicles lying around in the game were just to take you around the map faster. Well, they can do more than that for you and your team. You can use vehicles like tanks to run over a herd of zombies while still moving to any part of the map you choose.

Bear in mind that using vehicles to kill zombies will leave the vehicles damaged in a short while. You can quickly switch to another vehicle when this happens.

Summary

These tips are quite easy to master in-game but lots of practice will make it easier for you to switch between them. You can also check out cold war cheats to quickly jump ahead of several players and play like a pro.
