At the start of Season 4, longtime Call of Duty and Warzone fans were overjoyed that the KAR98K would be returning to the game. The rifle dominated the early days of the battle royale and is synonymous with the glory days of Verdansk. However, it didn\u2019t take long before the sentiment flipped as players grew tired of the KAR\u2019s power and domination over the meta when paired with the Superi 46 SMG. While some players have tried to run a few different weapons, it is that duo that gets the job in most lobbies these days. Well, the Modern Warfare 3 devs confirmed that the KAR would be going under the knife in Season 4 Reloaded by receiving a nerf, and now we know exactly what they\u2019ve done \u2013 nerfing the Max Damage Range and Bullet Velocity. Additionally, the Kar\u2019s aim assist has also been nerfed as the devs have brought it in line with sniper rifles. On the flip side of things, a number of SMGs and Assault Rifles have been buffed. That includes the Rival-9, FJX Horus, BAL 27, and MCW. There is good news for adopters of the MTZ-556. The AR, which was tipped to become the best gun in Season 4 Reloaded, has had its bullet velocity buffed. As ever, some of these changes are only going to take hold in Warzone, while others are specific to multiplayer. So, be aware of that when you\u2019re making changes to your loadouts.
