Nuketown 24/7



Nuketown 24/7 is a special event gametype featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops. Every match takes place in Nuketown, as the name suggests. This mode can hold 6-12 players in a lobby (6-10 on the Wii version, due to maximum online support can only hold 10 without RAM limitations or lag). This gametype is essentially a Nuketown-only mode, combining the gametype options from Team Tactical and Free for All gametypes, with a maximum of 2 6-player teams (5-player teams on the Wii version). It is confirmed that this gametype has and will be available for all past and upcoming Double XP events.

This is currently the only gametype where a player can play a 12 person Free-For-All match outside the PC version. Also, because of the nature of the playlist, this is the only FFA match where parties are allowed, however the Tactical Insertion is NOT allowed, following the normal set-up.

As the Double XP weekend is ended via an update, players that started playing before the Double XP weekend ended are still able to access the gamemode, until they turn off their consoles, thus updating the game once they turn their consoles on again. This gamemode is always very popular with the Black Ops community (even more so then Team Deathmatch) due it's limited availability and the ease at which players can gain large amounts of kills.

PC servers always have this game mode, even without special events.

On the Xbox 360, Party Chat is allowed during Search and Destroy and Free for All matches, unlike normal Search and Destroy and Free for All.
