NICKMERCS warns Warzone devs they\u2019re making huge mistake with Pacific loadout changes Twitch: NICKMERCS \/ Raven SoftwareNick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff has come down hard on Warzone\u2019s new Pacific loadouts system, claiming it\u2019s only designed for \u201cbots\u201d and warning the battle royale developers they are making a mistake adding the feature. This week, Raven Software revealed all the details on Warzone Pacific, which is set to hit live servers on Wednesday, December 8 in the battle royale\u2019s long-awaited Season 1 update. There\u2019s plenty of changes coming to Warzone in the update, but one stood out big time: From Dec 8, loadout drop markers are \u201conly purchasable from Buy Stations after the Loadout Drop events occur in a match\u201d. This change is designed to push their power further into the late game, and the game\u2019s top stars aren\u2019t happy. When he saw the change, NICKMERCS dubbed it \u201can L.\u201d According to the Twitch star, the change will \u201cgive the bots more time to run around and enjoy the new island view,\u201d but won\u2019t actually improve Warzone in any way. The biggest worry NICKMERCS has is that Raven Software is quietly trying to bring in changes that will lower the skill gap. That will leave the game \u201cslowed down\u201d and really only be enjoyable for casual gamers. \u201c[These changes] slow the pace down, in an effort to protect these bots. But really,\u201d he continued, \u201cthey\u2019re just going to get sh*t on either way. \u201cThat\u2019s the reality. Big devs will always make moves to protect their player base from the sharks that farm it daily, but there\u2019s only so much you can do.\u201d Negative. This exactly the opposite. Just gives the bots a bit more time to run around & enjoy the new island view. Slows the pace down a bit. When in reality, y\u2019all gonna get shit on either way \ud83d\ude02 \u2014 FaZe Nickmercs (@NICKMERCS) November 30, 2021 The Twitch star believes the Warzone devs are making a \u201chuge mistake\u201d leaning too far into that design. Going too far in a casual direction will alienate the battle royale\u2019s hardcore fanbase, he said, which is needed to keep the game alive beyond irregular seasonal hype. \u201cI don\u2019t like when devs change fundamentals to assist the bots,\u201d NICKMERCS said, \u201cbecause at the end of the day they\u2019re going to get rinsed regardless.\u201d I slept SO good. Had a great back workout. Took a eucalyptus steam shower & am now laying in bed like a vegetable before the stream. Vibes are 10\/10. Just don\u2019t like when devs change fundamentals to assist the bots. They\u2019re gonna get rinsed regardless. \u2014 FaZe Nickmercs (@NICKMERCS) November 30, 2021 Kolcheff\u2019s latest dig at the Call of Duty battle royale\u2019s loadout changes doesn\u2019t mean he won\u2019t be diving into the new Caldera map on launch day either. In the build-up to the Tropical battlefield\u2019s early December release, NICKMERCS has mentioned several times he\u2019s very eager to give it a solid go, even if he\u2019s struggled to play Warzone much over the past few months. \u201cI always said they need to make a map with an island theme, jungley, and bro did they deliver. I\u2019ve not played it, but I saw pictures and videos and it looks phenomenal,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t like going back in time, especially to WW2 times, but I\u2019m happy it\u2019s going to be tropical. The map is a vibe. \u201cI\u2019m having a lot of fun in Apex Legends right now, I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll ever permanently go back to Call of Duty,\u201d he added, \u201cbut I do want to check out the changes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
