July 2026 updates

The July 2026 updates: Easter Eggs, MOTD speedrunning, the Black Ops 1 launch and several balance changes.

Easter Eggs and rewards#

• MOTD: solo EE possible. Pop Goes The Weasel can now be completed solo. The reward fires when the LAST tape is played (before the final plane phase, which needs 4 players).
• +50% personal best bonus. If you beat your personal best (PB) on an EE you've already done (same map, same ending, same solo or co-op category), you get a +50% bonus on bank and XP.

MOTD: speedrun unlocks#

• Plane reusable in the same round. After a crash, the fuel cans and the plane respawn 8 seconds later. Refuel and take off again without skipping a round.
• Electric chairs earlier. The chairs spawn 26 seconds after the plane crash (when Brutus arrives), instead of waiting an extra minute.

AFK and game flow#

• AFK force-skip fixed. When 1 AFK player is the sole survivor and another player has just joined, the 60-second countdown now triggers correctly (it used to be blocked). No more games stuck forever because of a new joiner.

Black Ops 1: new#

• BO1 launch. Black Ops 1 (Plutonium T5) is live.
• Cross-game stats between BO1 and BO2. Bank, level, XP and rank are shared between BO1 and BO2 (same Discord link).
• Persistent HUD on BO1. Bank, level, round, game timer and zombie count in the top-left corner.
• BO1 shop (.shop). All perks at 10K: .jug .qr .speed .dt .stam .phd .dead .mule, plus .buyall.
• Strafe and backpedal at 100% on BO1. Sideways and backward movement at full speed.

Weapons#

• .mauser command. A Pack-a-Punched Mauser C96 (20K from the bank). On every BO2 map.

Maps#

• Buried: Vulture Aid in .buyall. 8 perks instead of 7 on Buried, for the same price (70K cap).
• Buried: texture fix. No more flickering or missing textures near the bar and the Easter Egg machine.
• Buried: bank disabled. No more "Hold F to deposit/withdraw" prompts in the bank room.

Mystery Box#

• Wonder weapon drop rate fixed. With a pool of 45 weapons versus 27 in vanilla, wonder weapons were about 56% rarer. The drop weight was doubled on the Monkeys, Ray Gun, Mark II, Blundergat and Paralyzer to match base-game percentages. A quadratic "soft pity" was added: after several dry box hits, your chance of getting a wonder weapon goes up.

Balance#

• High rounds: no more Fire Sale or Carpenter. Fire Sale and Carpenter are removed from drops from round 30 on every map.
• Mustang & Sally (.dual): ammo reserve cut from 96 to 50. Better late-game balance.

Commands and anti-exploit#

• .drop command. Drop your current weapon on the ground. Also listed in .help (ACTION section).
• .paralyzer command fixed. It now gives the actual Paralyzer.
• Buried: Time Bomb dupe fixed. You can no longer spend points, use the Time Bomb, and keep your purchases while getting your points back. Score (points) is no longer restored on rewind (perks, weapons and Pack-a-Punch are still kept, as in vanilla).
