Black Ops PS3 patch 1.07 released

3 March 2011

PS3 users have been treated (yay) to a patch for Call of Duty: Black Ops ahead of the First Strike DLC launch.

The First Strike DLC should be available on the PSN Store as you read this. It includes five new maps: Berlin Wall; Discovery; Kowloon; Stadium; and Ascension, which features zombies. Having already launched on Xbox 360, PC gamers will have to wait until the end of March.

The Black Ops PS3 patch 1.07 details are below:

New Features

* Added the in-game store.

Issues Addressed

* Setting party privacy to “closed” now fully functions as intended.
* Improved connectivity in matches containing multiple online split screen parties.
* 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.
* Fixed rare infinite load for clients with slow connections who join on a friend at the end of a match as the final killcam is ending.
* The name of a copied custom class no longer reverts back to the default after changing it.
* Fixed a rare issue where gun sight lenses could appear opaque.
* 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.
* Fixed rare infinite load that could occur in Zombies involving split screen parties accepting an invite into a Private Match.
* Addressed a number of community-discovered Zombies gameplay exploits.
* Additional security feature updates.
