The Call of Duty Black Ops 4 Blackout beta player cap has been lifted to 88 from 80, adding more combatants to the game’s battle royale mode.

Here’s everything that was tweaked by developer Treyarch after one day of play.

General

  • Changed Featured Playlist to DUOs.
  • Raised player cap to 88.
  • General stability and stat-tracking improvements.
  • Quick equip menu will automatically close if not used for 5 seconds.

Item Pickups

  • Increased the speed of picking up Items off of the ground – you will still be able to reload your weapon independently without picking an Item up by tapping the reload button.

Equipment

  • Reduced duration of Sensor Dart to 2 minutes.

The Blackout beta has kicked off on PS4 and heads to Windows PC and Xbox One shortly.
