Treyarch just released a new update for Call of Duty: Black Ops - Cold War. This patch, among the other changes, introduces a brand new hardcore playlist to the mix. It's a hardcore option for Moshpit, a playlist that cycles between some of the game's most popular modes and maps.

This new hardcore mode should be welcome to those that feel as though the TTK (time to kill) has gotten to be a bit too high in the Cold War multiplayer modes.

Also included in this update was a fix for some Outbreak bugs along with fixes to the game's competitive League Play ladder system. The full patch notes can be found below.
