Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Single-Player Campaign Requires Constant Online Connection
New Black Ops installment demands online connectivity and disables pausing during single-player mode
The upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has revealed some notable changes to its single-player campaign experience. Unlike previous entries, the game will not allow players to pause during the campaign, potentially impacting those who prefer to take breaks or manage interruptions during gameplay. This design choice has caught the attention of fans who value the ability to pause story modes for convenience.
In addition to the no-pause feature, Black Ops 7 will require an active online connection at all times, even when playing single-player content. This always-online requirement means players must stay connected to the internet to access the campaign, which could be problematic for those with unstable or limited internet access.
These changes indicate a shift in how the developers are approaching the single-player experience, possibly to support ongoing online features or anti-cheat measures. However, the lack of pause functionality and the constant online requirement may not align well with all players' expectations, especially those who enjoy offline, flexible play sessions.
