In Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, dedicated players are tackling some of the toughest challenges ever designed for the franchise, and the Dark Ops challenges are among the most brutal. One such challenge, “Social Distancing,” requires players to survive 20 rounds of Zombies without taking a single point of damage.

Unfortunately, one player’s attempt to complete the challenge ended in an extremely frustrating and seemingly random way, underscoring the unpredictable nature of Black Ops 6 Zombies mode.

The Unlucky Incident

Reddit user TheZ0MBIE4 recently shared a video of their attempt to clear the Social Distancing challenge, only to have it abruptly ended by a long-range zombie meat toss. The incident occurred during round 19 of the 20-round requirement on the Liberty Falls map, a popular location in Black Ops 6. In the brief 13-second clip, TheZ0MBIE4 is seen on a rooftop, holding off the zombie horde with a semi-automatic shotgun. Just as victory seems within reach, a chunk of meat unexpectedly flies up from the bottom of the screen, striking and damaging TheZ0MBIE4. This unexpected hit from a zombie on the ground, well out of line of sight, ended their progress toward the Social Distancing achievement.

Zombie Meat Tosses: A New Source of Frustration

In Black Ops 6 Zombies mode, normal zombies who cannot physically reach the player may resort to tossing chunks of meat to cause damage from a distance. This mechanic, though a quirky aspect of the game, can be incredibly frustrating when it interrupts an otherwise flawless attempt at a challenge like Social Distancing. The most perplexing part of TheZ0MBIE4’s experience was the range and accuracy of the zombie’s meat throw, considering the zombie appeared to be on the ground while TheZ0MBIE4 was perched high on a rooftop. Some players in the community found the throw’s precision amusing, even joking that the zombie had been channeling football quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Community Reactions and Speculations

While many players sympathized with TheZ0MBIE4’s unfortunate situation, others shared their own frustrations in trying to complete the Dark Ops challenges. Some players speculated that the meat toss could be a bug, as TheZ0MBIE4’s position on the rooftop might not have been considered beyond the zombies' range. Others suggested a workaround to the Social Distancing challenge: exploiting the game’s save system by leaving a round and resetting it to try again. Unfortunately for TheZ0MBIE4, the glitch couldn't save their current run, but they planned to give it another shot in the future.

The Ongoing Struggle with Black Ops 6 Challenges

The Social Distancing challenge is just one example of the rigorous tests that Black Ops 6 players face. Despite the frustrating bugs and unexpected mishaps, many dedicated players continue to push through, hoping for the chance to unlock the coveted Black Ops 6 Calling Cards and other rewards. Whether or not Treyarch will address these issues remains to be seen, but for now, players like TheZ0MBIE4 must cope with the randomness and difficulty that come with tackling some of the hardest challenges in Call of Duty history.
