MW3 devs confirm hated weapon will finally be nerfed in Season 4 & players are delighted ActivisionThe Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 devs have confirmed that the much-hated RGL-80 Grenade Launcher is getting some Hardcore-specific nerfs in Season 4, and players couldn\u2019t be happier. If you\u2019ve dropped into a game of Hardcore in Modern Warfare 3 at any point in the last few months, you\u2019ve more than likely been hit by a barrage of grenades from the RGL-80 Grenade Launcher. Given that Hardcore allows you to delete enemies in one shot, the launcher has regularly been used off the rip on small maps. Many players called the RGL \u201cridiculous\u201d and stated that it made Hardcore matches \u201cunplayable\u201d unless it was going to be nerfed. There had been fears that things would be going the other way, and that the grenade launcher would actually be buffed with the addition of a new Conversion Kit. However, it will finally be nerfed in Season 4 \u2013 and will have Hardcore-specific changes to go along with it. \u201cHardcore-specific balance adjustments for the RGL-80 are coming in Season 4,\u201d one of Sledgehammer Games\u2019 devs posted on the MW3 subreddit. The news of the change, naturally, had some players overjoyed. \u201cThank God,\u201d one said. \u201cSeason 4 officially the best update now,\u201d another added. \u201cI\u2019m really curious what their definition of a nerf is going to end up being,\u201d said another player. Some players urged the devs to outright remove the grenade launcher from Hardcore matches with a ban restriction. Others would argue that the only use for the RGL-80 is to complete the camo mastery challenges and that the launcher isn\u2019t a viable weapon. One fan even went as far as saying it serves \u201cno purpose\u201d in any game mode, never mind just the Hardcore ones. Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone\u2019s Season 4 update drops on May 29, so hopefully there won\u2019t be much more RGL spam to be had at the start of games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
