Treyarch has released a new update for the ever popular shooter Call Of Duty: Black Ops, improving on a number of aspects, including matchmaking, zombie lobbies, as well as a much needed ability to tweak the split screen multiplayer camera angles.

Also released today is the single-player demo, for those of you who have been living under a rock the past few months. Gold members can queue it up over here (917 MB).

Check out the full list of fixes in the latest update below:

Issues Addressed:

  • Matchmaking improvements to return higher quality results faster. This change includes settings that are tunable in the live environment, so tweaking may continue beyond initial release of this update.
  • The in-game store now hides DLC map packs that do not match the language of the player’s disc to decrease the possibility of users downloading the incorrect language version.
  • Calling in a Chopper Gunner immediately after getting shot down in a Gunship will no longer end the Chopper Gunner run prematurely. Required timing-specific button presses.
  • Split screen players are now able to change camera perspectives and cycle through players as a spectator.
  • Addressed an issue where the most recent match played in Zombies could overwrite the best match played on the leaderboard.
  • Improved Zombies lobbies to prevent players from erroneously receiving the error “Unable to join game session” under certain circumstances.
  • Addressed a number of community-discovered Zombies gameplay exploits.
  • Additional security feature updates.

Gameplay Tuning:

  • Additional sniper rifle tuning.
