How to complete Groundbreaking in ARC Raiders

The Groundbreaking quest is a new activity to finish in ARC Raiders, which forms part of the Cold Snap update.

Thankfully, it’s fairly easy to finish off. All the tasks can be completed on the Blue Gate map, and there are four of them. This guide will help you finish all the tasks.

ARC Raiders Groundbreaking quest walkthrough

The Groundbreaking quest can be broken down into the following parts.

• Enter the locked room at Pilgrim’s Peak
• Search the room for any construction research
• Find the building pictured on the whiteboard
• Photograph the abandoned housing project

Once you accept the quest from Apollo, he will provide you with the Blue Gate Communication Tower key. Make sure to keep the item safe since you’ll need it to proceed with the quest. Next, head to Pilgrim’s Peak on the Blue Gate map.

Enter the building from the entrance marked on the screenshot below. Go straight, and then turn left. Travel straight until you come across a locked door to your right. This is where you use the key. Head inside and you’ll find a whiteboard. Investigate the whiteboard, and you’ll automatically complete the second and third tasks of the quest.

The final part of the quest is slightly tricky since you’ll have to stand at a specific location at the Abandoned Housing project. Head to the marked location, and you’ll find the spot where you have to take the photo. You will first have to reach Abandoned Housing before proceeding to this spot.

Being at the correct spot will allow you to take a photo of the building in front of you and complete the quest.

There are more quests to complete in Cold Snap, and we have detailed guides for all of them.

You better watch out, you better not die (in Call of Duty), you better not pout, I’m telling you why: Black Ops 7’s Naughty and Nice event is here.

The latest seasonal holiday event for BO7 is bringing the gifts, or maybe the lumps of coal, depending on how bad you’ve been in CoD this year. But the Naughty & Nice event in BO7 is mostly nice, as it brings along a new free weapon and animated camo for gamers to unlock along the way.

Here’s the full list of challenges and rewards you can get by playing Naughty & Nice.

Black Ops 7 Naughty & Nice event

There are 10 total challenges to complete in Naughty and Nice, and the two main rewards are the Sokol 545 LMG and Snowfall animated camo. Five challenges are Naughty (sacks of coal) while five are Nice (holiday gifts), and completing the associated challenge allows you to open up whatever is inside (a mystery, for now).

Naughty challenges are for the naughtiest CoD players who only chase down kills and don’t care about wins or objectives, while Nice challenges are for those of you who play for the team and not just the individual accolades. But hey, both are needed and necessary!

All 10 challenges can be completed in either BO7 multiplayer, Zombies, Endgame, or Warzone. Just finishing one of the tasks listed below will unlock the reward for it, including everything from emblems, weapon charms, and a blueprint like the Sweet Tooth Peacekeeper Mk1 blueprint and more.

Several of the challenges have to do with playing limited time modes like Snowfight in multiplayer or Holiday Rush in Warzone, so make sure to be in the holiday spirit before logging on.
