Veteran fans of the franchise may have noticed that it is easier to complete Easter eggs in Black Ops Cold War Zombies. It turns out that developer Treyarch made some changes to the game because so few players were completing the Easter eggs.
A nice feature of Black Ops Cold War Zombies is that the game is always very clear on what you should do next. Even if you’re completely new to the series, it’s very easy to find out what you need to do to unlock the next great weapon or advance the story.
It wasn’t always like that, though. Treyarch studio creative director Corky Lehmkuhl explained their design changes to IGN India. “[S]A lot of development time is spent on these things, and if you look at the metrics, less than 2% of gamers actually saw that stuff unless it was shown on YouTube, “he said.” If you watch YouTube now or Reddit, a lot of people are looking at it. completing their first Easter Eggs, ever, and have been with the franchise for the entire 10, 12 years. “
Lehmkuhl summed up their design philosophy this way: “There are some secondary Easter eggs that are still a little dark and you’ll have to find them, but for the main mission we just wanted more players to experience it.”
Some casual gamers appreciate the added accessibility, but some hardcore veterans have preferred the challenge of completing Easter eggs in previous games. Be sure to let us know what you think of this change in the comments!
