When Warzone 2 replaced the original CoD BR at the tail end of 2022, it was largely seen as a regression for the franchise. From core gameplay regressions, a swarm of critical bugs, to a lack of fresh content on the horizon, the game struggled through its first few months on the market. With many frustrated at the state of affairs, Swagg even spoke out and argued the title is \u201cmoving backward\u201d amid its declining player base. \u201cThey built up Warzone 1 and did it so well, and they just took all the small things and the quality of life updates and brought it backward,\u201d Swagg told us in an exclusive interview on December 22. Now a few months on, and it\u2019s clear many of his complaints are still yet to be addressed. \u201cWe just had the midseason update and they literally did nothing,\u201d he yelled in his new March 19 YouTube video. An upload simply titled: My Message to Warzone. At first, Swagg took issue with the lack of not only new updates, but a lack of clarity and communication in general. \u201cSeason 2 was our first update in five months,\u201d he claimed, before stressing that key changes and bonus content just can\u2019t take that long to arrive. \u201cThey are aware of the major stuff and they are working on it, I just wish they were faster,\u201d he continued. The RPK was meta for 100 days\u2026\u201d On top of their pace, Swagg also wishes they\u2019d more thoroughly test each update before it goes live. One major factor that came under fire at the start of Season 2 Reloaded had to do with an accidental Tactical Sprint nerf. \u201cThey messed up Tac Sprint,\u201d he said, flustered at how such a core system could be impacted in a new patch. Hitting out at the current game as a whole, Warzone 2\u2019s overall decline can be pinned on one thing in particular, according to Swagg: A lack of \u201cfun.\u201d \u201cThe game can never be perfect, but make it fun. There\u2019s no community moments. No clips, no highlights, when was the last time we all tweeted a clip? There used to be clips all the time. There\u2019s no sniping, no cool movement clips.\u201d Where the original thrived as players looked to innovate through new tricks and gameplay innovations, the sequel\u2019s slower pace combined with a TTK that is \u201cjust way too fast,\u201d has limited that expression of skill. Ultimately, if things can get back to the way they were, Swagg thinks Warzone 2 still has a chance to turn things around. After all, \u201cthere is nobody else who wants to see this game succeed more than [him].\u201d But if Activision doesn\u2019t start righting those wrongs sooner than later, it could spell doom for the CoD BR. \u201cThey\u2019ve gotta get it together or we\u2019re gonna be on Fortnite,\u201d he said in conclusion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swagg hits out at current state of Warzone 2, implores devs to \u201cget it together\u201d YouTube: SwaggCall of Duty superstar Swagg is fed up with the state of Warzone 2 and has called on Activision to \u201cget it together\u201d before the remaining player base falls off from the Battle Royale sequel.
