Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 received a small update on November 25, and the patch notes revealed a much-needed fix for the campaign's Endgame mode. The update added a new protection for disconnects that previously caused players to lose all of their progress in the mode.
Black Ops 7's Endgame works much like the high-risk/high-reward structure of extraction-style shooters. Players grind matches of Endgame to level up their characters' abilities and combat rating, and failing to successfully extract from the map means they lose everything. Unfortunately, players were losing everything to random disconnects and game crashes as well.

Treyarch said it heard the feedback from players, and the new update adds a disconnect protection. Now when players drop into matches of Endgame, the game snapshots the player's Combat Rating at the start of the match. This means players will keep their progress that was snapshotted at the start of the match even if a disconnect or crash occurs.
"We're exploring additional and more robust forms of disconnect protection and will look to share more in the future," the developer said.
The full patch notes can be found below, as shared by Activision.
This update arrives ahead of Call of Duty Season 1, which adds new world events to Endgame. Treyarch has confirmed the zombie T-Rex from Black Ops 6 and the giant Origins robot from Black Ops 2 Zombies as new boss battles for Endgame.
Season 1 of Black Ops 7 and Warzone arrives on December 4. The update is packed with new content, including seven new weapons to unlock, more maps, seasonal events, and Black Ops 7's integration into Warzone.
We’re thrilled with the response to Endgame so far and have enjoyed watching new players deploy to Avalon to explore, complete quests, and begin the journey toward the Genesis Mastery Camo. We’ve also seen the feedback: disconnect / crash protections are needed to help protect your Combat Rating.
So, now when you deploy to Avalon, we'll snapshot your Combat Rating at the start of the match. Earn progress and extract to grow your Combat Rating; fall in combat or fail to escape, and you'll lose it all. However, in the event that a disconnect does occur, you'll now begin your next match at the Combat Rating that you entered your previous match in to continue back on your path of reaching CR 60.
We’re exploring additional and more robust forms of disconnect protection and will look to share more in the future. Until then, keep growing your Combat Rating and get ready for World Events coming in Season 01.
