Recon Specialty is getting nerfed in Black Ops 6

As discussed, Matt Scronce has confirmed that the Recon Specialty is getting a much-needed nerf in Black Ops 6. The Recon Combat Specialty has been a major cause of concern for players since the game's release as it gave them wallhacks. However, after almost a week of complaints by fans, it's been confirmed that Treyarch has listened and a nerf is underway.

One might wonder why the Recon Specialty is getting nerfed: the answer to that is fairly straightforward.

When one uses three Blue Perks in Black Ops 6, they earn the Recon Combat Specialty, which offers them a vision of their targets on each spawn — even through walls — essentially replicating a wallhack cheat. This is not something that happens only once and will come into effect every time a player spawns.

There's no way to counter it at the moment and those who use it always have a significant advantage. This led to widespread complaints about the system on all major social media platforms. Treyarch has not turned a blind eye to the issue and fans can expect an update that will nerf the Recon Specialty in the next few weeks.
