A feature found in previous titles has made its way to Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. The new Season 2 content update added a ton of new features to the game, but this one slipped by with very little attention. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War continues to improve its functionality, and the community approves of the changes.
In a shooter game like Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, accuracy is everything. While it is one thing to use a powerful gun, if a player can not hit their target, then their weapon won't do much good. However, it can be difficult to tell exactly where a bullet goes during a match.

In a post created by mack180, the Reddit fan reveals an addition to Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Season 2 that makes it possible to track bullet hit merks. Known as the Shot Tracker System, players are able to see the hit location of every gun they have ever fired in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. The chart provided is sorted by weapon, and it records the usual stats that fans expect. This includes gun accuracy, headshot percentage, range of kills, and other general information. New details have been added to this page as players are able to observe a "paper doll" with different body parts highlighted. These body parts present hit percentages for direct shots at specific targets.
For fans, this detailed information is vital to a player's understanding of how a Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War weapon has been handled. From recoil to bullet velocity, players can start to see a direct shift in their gun's behavior by referencing this chart before and after a change.
Further, this also can make it clear if failure to kill targets is due to user error. If hit percentages on the body are low, then players may not be hitting the target at all. This can be very useful when Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War players look to improve their multiplayer strategies.
This is a minor change, but it can have massive community results as Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War fans get a small window into the game's shooting algorithm. While this is only a glimpse into hit percentages, it can offer a ton of valuable information to players that want to see specific results with their weapon loadouts.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
