A short commentary going over details of the new "Solo Advanced Start" Mode for Dead Ops Arcade 3, which allows you to start back up at the checkpoint of your highest Solo round, though as outlined in the video, this mode comes with a few catches too!
► Important info/updates about the mode that are not mentioned in this video:
✪ If your arena checkpoint is past Round 20, you are now able to choose your Fate as soon as you load into the match, rather than being awarded a random Fate. This Fate selection will take place on the Island arena. You will also be able to obtain a Flashlight item during that time too.
✪ The Room of Judgement is now always encountered after Round 65.
✪ Depending on your arena checkpoint, you will now have more than the default stat-line of: 3 Lives, 2 Speed Boosts, and 1 Nuke. For example, if your starting checkpoint is Round 61, your starting arsenal would be: 5 Lives, 5 Speed Boosts, and 4 Nukes.
✪ "First Person Solo Advanced Start" was added as a new playlist option on July 14, 2021.
✪ Your checkpoint progress will only update if you are playing either an Advanced Start mode, or a match under the "Solo" playlist specifically. Playing under the "Private" playlist, even if you're doing a 1-player match, will not apply towards your Advanced Start checkpoint.
✪ Zombies have less HP in Advanced Start. For example, if your starting checkpoint is Round 61, zombies will only have 545 HP, instead of the typical 800 HP for Solo on that round.
✪ If you arena checkpoint is at least Round 13, you are guaranteed a Bonus Room after the very first round that you play.
✪ If your arena checkpoint is in the later rounds, certain Bonus Rooms will never appear since they would first have to be unlocked in the Wild (i.e. Abandoned Temple, Dark Crypt, Ikari EggXit, Kaboom Room).

Note: With the 6/16/21 Update, the 3rd Fate reward was removed and instead replaced with a lesser reward, where everyone in the match is maxed out on Lives, Armory, and Keys. Here is a clip of how that reward looks like when you earn it: https://clips.twitch.tv/SaltyMuddyLobsterTheRinger-qLmRku0UQCqwM-GH
