Hmmm...
To do:
  • Remnants of the campaign mode.
  • Screenshot of the Gunsmith menu.
  • BO2 War Machine is leftover & can be used via Jiggy mod menu.
  • Nuk3town, Black Ops III, Campaign & Unfinished Black Market Camos can be accessed via Jiggy mod menu

A shoestring budget and (at the time) decade old hardware can make a very ugly port. Compared to the other releases, it lacked the campaign, many cosmetic features and only got one DLC pack (and The Giant map). But at least it has "last-gen" Richtofen.

Gunsmith

Using glitches, it is possible to open the Gunsmith menu. Clicking "Confirm" crashes the game due to missing files. From what can be seen in the background, it is littered with missing icons, so most likely it was never finished.

Unused Weapons

M27

The M27 is used as a dummy "weapon" for Specialist abilities if the player equips them as a weapon. Also exists in the eighth-gen and PC versions.

Base Weapon

A solid pink version of Black Ops 2's M27. The seventh-gen port uses a significantly lower-polygon version of the eighth-gen/PC version's weapon with compressed animations. It has no sounds.

Unused Game Mode

One in the Chamber, a game mode from Black Ops I and II was going to return in Black Ops III. It works like the previous games, however there's a few bugs:

  • The game doesn't end when everyone is dead and everyone is forced to spectate until the time runs out.
  • Missing shots don't replenish.
  • The game has trouble registering scores.

Create-A-Class icons

The War Machine and Annihilator have Create-A-Class icons. These would be used in the campaign, however, this port does not have a campaign mode, making these unused.

Placeholder Leaderboard Entry

Hmmm...
To do:
Get a better version of this because currently all I have is this shitty picture I took a few months ago. Although i have no idea how to replicate this glitch

Sometimes, if the game cannot retrieve Leaderboard Player Data, it displays a placeholder entry with garbage data, but has some interesting things:

  • Name: Hendricks
  • An unused? rank icon

The name Hendricks comes from a campaign character, and as we all know there is no campaign in this version. The rank icon might be from Multiplayer Ranked Play, but this is just a guess. BLACKOPS PHLeaderboard.jpg
