While his tweet did not give much detail on what exactly was fixed, many people in the “Black Ops 3” community believe that it was meant to address players farming Cryptokeys in the Gun Game mode.
The exploit involved players going to a match of the Gun Game and just leaving the game on for hours without anyone being kicked off from the match. The longer the game lasted, the more Cryptokeys the players receive.
Meanwhile, the Treyarch Studios game has moved 187,446 units since November 6 on PlayStation 4, and 32,022 on the PlayStation 3. It has outsold other new video game releases including “Project X Zone 2,” “Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate,” and “Need for Speed.”
The sales performance of the current release is far better than last year’s “Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare,” which also topped the Japan charts with opening week sales of 79,586 units on the PlayStation 3, 64,060 units on the PlayStation 4, and 3,370 units on the Xbox One.
However, the most interesting aspect of the data is how the Japanese gaming platform preference has evolved over the years. Despite initially struggling to sell in Japan, it seems that the PlayStation 4 is now the leading gaming platform in the country, even outperforming the very popular portable systems.
