Hazard is a multiplayer map that appeared with the Annihilation DLC for Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Overview
Hazard takes place on a golf course and is based on the map Cliffside from Call of Duty: World at War. As you can read in the game files, it was originally supposed to be called “Golf Course”. Long-range battles are very popular here, so sniper rifles are in order. Players with assault rifles and submachine guns can cover the flanks, protecting the snipers from their team.
Info
- The name of the map (Hazard) alludes to an area of a golf course with a difficult obstacle, of which there are three types.
Water pools, sand banks and plant areas. - This is the second map from the DLCs for Black Ops in which the Tropas and Op 40 fight, the first being Hotel.
- On the map’s scoreboard, Woods is in first place with -8, Bowman is sixth with -2 and Mason is last with +8.
- In a trench outside the map are two gunships.
- The room where you can hone your golf skills has two clocks that show the player’s correct local time, and there is also a picture of the pool from the map hotel.
- By the garage door there are two bags of cement with “Product of Treyarch” written on them.
- A white flag hangs in the top window of the mansion, and there is also smoke coming out of the window.
- Everywhere you can see tee packs that say “Havana Golf,” the name of a golf course in Havana, Cuba.
- Every golf flag, even the ones outside the map, says “Hole 1.”
- The main building is a reconstruction of the building from the map Castle.
- If you stand in front of the sprinklers, water drops appear on the player’s screen and a small rainbow appears.
- If you shoot at the sprinklers, the top breaks off and the water shoots straight up.
- There are several holes in the walls that can be used as shortcuts for remote charges.
- In the bar on the shelf behind the counter is the skull of a monkey.
- Just outside the map, opposite the cliffs, there is a pool that has the same shape as the one in the map Hotel.
- The player can shoot golf balls into the holes.
- There are only two golf balls that are also meant to be moved. The one at the very first hole and the one just opposite on the map. The rest are programmed to stay in place even during heavy explosions.
Call of Duty
The Call of Duty series has existed since 2003 and in addition to various spin-offs, including for the handheld systems Nintendo DS and Sony PSP, 14 major titles of the series have now been released. Ever since the first part of the series, great emphasis has been placed on the online multiplayer mode in addition to the single-player campaign, which is also reflected in the development of the shooter series. Since the first Call of Duty, World at War, which was developed exclusively by Treyarch, each part also included cooperative challenges that you could play together with friends. The latest installment, Call of Duty: World War II, also features an extended multiplayer mode that puts you and your friends in the combat zones and famous battles of World War II. Using the divisions, you’ll be able to choose between the deadly sniper and the brute armored division and support your comrades in battle. In addition, World War II also has a zombie mode “Nazi Zombies”, as in its predecessor Call of Duty: Black Ops. Face the monsters of the Third Reich and win glory and honor.
