Call of Duty: Crimsix highlights a major issue with assault rifles after CWL Las Vegas Competitive Call of Duty fans and pundits were left scratching their heads on more than one occasion during the first Black Ops 4 event of the season as numerous top assault rifle players struggled to keep up with their opponents and teammates. Some of the most dominant main AR stars in recent years, like 100 Thieves\u2019 Austin \u2018SlasheR\u2019 Liddicoat and Red Reserve\u2019s Rhys \u2018Rated\u2019 Price, often struggled to take over matches in the way that we\u2019ve become accustomed to at CWL Las Vegas, especially when they had an ICR in their hands. However, OpTic Gaming\u2019s Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter believes that there may have been issues with the aim assist and bullet registration for assault rifles during long-range engagements at the LAN event. He said: \u201cDon\u2019t think anyone has publicly said this yet but there is something severely wrong with bullet reg AND aim assist at distance with the non-stock AR\u2019s on LAN. \u201cICR bullet reg feels like a worse version of the AN94 from BO2. You literally have to lead shots.\u201d Don\u2019t think anyone has publicly said this yet but there is something severely wrong with bullet reg AND aim assist at distance with the non-stock AR\u2019s on LAN.

At least someone else thought that gun felt majorly different on LAN \u2014 Dylan Daly (@MadCat) December 11, 2018 Yeup. I thought it was just the ICR but the Swordfish has that same sort of delay \u2014 Ian (@OpTic_Crimsix) December 11, 2018 While nothing has been confirmed, the fact that so many top AR players seemed to perform worse on LAN than they have been online adds some credibility to what the veterans are saying. If Crimsix is correct, and nothing is done to improve the problems that he has pinpointed, the competitive Call of Duty meta for Black Ops 4 may change entirely with teams moving away from classic long-range AR roles and adopt a different approach to the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
