Warzone analyst proves STG & Garand Vanguard blueprints have easier recoil ActivisionCall of Duty: Vanguard blueprints have arrived in the Warzone store and players are baffled by how good they are. A new comparison proves the STG 44 & M1 Garand blueprints do indeed have easier recoil patterns than their base counterparts. While we\u2019re still a few weeks out from the release of Vanguard, that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s not already reshaping the franchise. A few guns from the upcoming title arrived with the Season 6 battle pass and are making quite the splash in Warzone as players analyze exactly how effective these new weapons and their blueprints really are. NYSL\u2019s Mavriq went on a deep dive into the recoil patterns between the standard version of each gun and their respective blueprints, and the results are blatant: the blueprints all consistently have an easier spray pattern. This immediately conjures pay-to-win concerns, which have popped up with guns like the Bullfrog and XM4 before. Seeing the impact trails for yourself really illuminates how dangerous these weapons could be. Warzone STG & M1 Garand Vanguard blueprints give in-game advantage If we take a look at Mavriq\u2019s test, it\u2019s clear that these blueprints do not operate the same as their standard counterparts. While these aren\u2019t technically P2W since they come free with the battle pass, players typically don\u2019t like when a blueprint behaves differently than its base version. The evidence is especially concerning in the case of the M1 Garand\u2019s Heirloom blueprint. Comparing Warzone Vanguard blueprints to base versions Forgot to tweet this out when the STG and M1 Garand got dropped. Recoil plots comparing their base versions to blueprints that were released. White Obsidian is bugged rn. There\u2019s no bullet impacts which is why it\u2019s missing. pic.twitter.com\/C61l175c5c \u2014 NYSL Mavriq (@MavriqGG) October 13, 2021 If you\u2019re unfamiliar with tests like these, the jagged edges found in the highlighted lines indicate more aggressive movement from the gun when fired. These sudden changes in direction are what make weapons difficult to control in a gunfight. The closer a gun can be to a straight line, the easier it is to handle when shooting, and the Heirloom M1 Garand flattens this kind of instability to an unbelievably small level. This hasn\u2019t been a big problem in the game as of yet, but with more Vanguard weapons on the way, there could be cause for concern if this trend continues. Anyone who wants to test these results out for themselves will need to start grinding out their Season 6 Battle Pass, as all Vanguard blueprints are locked inside the middle and upper tiers of the battle pass for now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
