Cold War players demand Tec 9 SMG nerfs due to \u201cunplayable\u201d multiplayer ActivisionCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War players have grown increasingly frustrated with the Tec-9 SMG that arrived in the Season 5 update, to the point that players are now saying it\u2019s literally ruining games. The Tec-9 joined the ever-expanding selection of weapons in Cold War and Warzone in mid-August, and while it hasn\u2019t made a huge dent on the Warzone meta, it\u2019s definitely caused a stir in Cold War\u2019s multiplayer. The submachine gun class has no shortage of viable options in multiplayer, with a range of options for players of all styles. The Tec-9, though, has changed that, and become the favored SMG in almost all scenarios, causing some serious backlash from players. Community sentiment towards the gun has slowly shifted throughout Season 5, from joy at another viable SMG option to realizing its true power. With the Season 5 Reloaded update growing closer (though no date has yet been set), many posts are popping up online begging for a Tec-9 nerf, so much so that Treyarch might find it impossible to ignore. One Reddit post says that the game has become \u201cunplayable\u201d due to it becoming a \u201cTec 9 fest,\u201d with one of the comments adding that \u201cno other weapon can compete with it.\u201d As well as multiple Reddit posts, there are also countless tweets asking for changes to be made. One of these, for example, comes from Bryan Lee, who asked Treyarch to \u201ccome with the Tec-9 nerf soon\u201d because \u201cMP is just unplayable\u201d with it in the state it is. @Treyarch @TreyarchCM y’all coming with the Tec 9 nerf any time soon? MP is just unplayable at the moment. \u2014 BigLeeChew (@bigleechew) September 1, 2021 Needless to say, the Season 5 Reloaded update can\u2019t come soon enough for Cold War players, who will be desperate for a proper nerf to the Tec-9. Whether that nerf comes, and what it looks like if it does, remains to be seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
