Why Black Ops 6’s classic Prestige is the best Multiplayer addition in years

As a seasoned CoD fanatic who’s been grinding through countless Prestige levels since the original Black Ops, I’m absolutely ecstatic about Black Ops 6! The return of the classic Prestige system is like reuniting with an old friend after a long absence. I can already feel that familiar adrenaline rush as I approach operator level 55, knowing that my journey to Master Prestige lies ahead.

Due to the well-established Prestige system, Black Ops 6 has the potential to provide one of the finest Multiplayer experiences in a while, as long as it’s managed effectively.

As a dedicated gamer, I’ve got to hand it to Sledgehammer Games for executing their post-launch content strategy for Modern Warfare 3’s multiplayer like a boss! Each seasonal update was packed with fresh maps, weapons, and game modes that kept me hooked long after the game had initially worn off. They truly extended the life of the game in a way that made every session feel exciting and new.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III concluded with an impressive 35 six vs. six Multiplayer maps, making it the title with the highest number of maps since Black Ops 4, which had 34 in 2018. Sledgehammer Games didn’t just meet expectations but surpassed them by introducing innovative game modes like “Get High” and “Hordepoint,” offering unique gaming experiences for fans.

Even though significant advancements have been made, it’s the timeless Prestige system that made iconic Multiplayer versions stand out so vividly in our memories.

Once you advance to Operator Level 55, you can access Prestige Mode, allowing you to restart your progress and earn a fresh emblem. Along the way, there are ten distinct Prestige stages before achieving Master Prestige.

Year after year, dedicated content makers and gamers strive for top positions, showcasing their devotion to the game by displaying their emblems proudly.

2020 saw Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War abandon its traditional progression structure, instead adopting a seasonal Prestige system. Once a player reached level 55, they transitioned onto the seasonal track, starting anew at level 1 while keeping all previously acquired items.

Rather than letting you advance through all levels immediately upon release and at your own speed, the Seasonal Prestige system imposes a limit on the number of levels you can reach during each season. To illustrate, prior to Black Ops Cold War Season 1, players could only achieve up to level 150.

The controversial decision negatively impacted replayability and drove fans away because there was no longer a rewarding grind, and reaching higher ranks felt less meaningful. Treyarch listened to community complaints and returned the classic Prestige system for Black Ops 6.

In a tribute to past Black Ops games, Treyarch incorporated Prestige Icons, offering gamers an extra 1000 level milestones to conquer. This marks the first time many players encounter the traditional system, generating a noticeable excitement for the game launch.

Call of Duty legend Scump plans to live-stream continuously alongside fellow OpTic Gaming members, aiming to achieve the Master Prestige level. Other streamers are likely to imitate this trend.

Before the upcoming release, there remain a couple of issues such as the maps being relatively small compared to what we’re accustomed to at launches, and a smaller arsenal of weapons than usual.

If Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 multiplayer continues to receive the same amount of attention Modern Warfare 3 did, and all its novel features are accepted positively, it’s hard to imagine how the multiplayer aspect could possibly falter.
