Black Ops 3 update: Treyarch aren’t messing around with PS4, Xbox One and PC warning

Black Ops 3 fans on Xbox One, PS4 and PC could lose complete access to features

TREYARCH are showing that they aren't messing around when it comes to their latest Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 warning for Xbox One, PS4 and PC players.

Having recently revealed what issues will get you suspended and then banned, the studio are now acting on some of the created emblems or paintjobs that are considered to be generally offensive.

Users have reported being permanently banned from using editor features, while others have hit the Black Ops 3 forums to report the use of offensive designs that have been spotted and flagged.

A post from Treyarch confirms what designs fall into this category, via the Black Ops 3 Security & Enforcement policy.

"Offensive content includes, but is not limited to, sexually gratuitous images, culturally offensive material, and/or foul language.Any user who creates an emblem or paintjob with personal and/or private information for either themselves or other persons is subject to penalty," The Treyarch post reads.

"Personal/Private information includes, but is not limited to, email addresses, phone numbers, physical addresses, and full names."

Treyarch revealed there are three levels of actions they will take against players, including:

• Temporary Suspensions – Can range from 48 hours to two weeks or longer, depending on the severity of the infraction. Permanent suspensions are lasting and final.
• Minor Offense – One in which no quantifiable damage has been done to another user or the game community at large.
• Extreme Offense – One in which a player has caused detriment to other users or has organized large groups of users to commit additional offenses.

Black Ops 3 players can also receive bans trying to cheat the game for more XP

Other bans can be brought if a player is found to be exploiting the game for the purpose of gaining XP, prestige, game score, weapon level, or in-game unlock.

Players have been given their first chance at designing their own weapon camos using the Weapon Paint Shop in Bo3, which builds off the established tools found in Emblem Editor.

The Weapon Paint Shop allows players to customise their arsenal, which can then be taken to the Gunsmith feature and shared as a weapons variant within Create-a-Class.
