Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet stuns CoD scene with insane controller mod story Wikimedia Commons: Maximilian B\u00fchn\/ActivisionTimoth\u00e9e Chalamet stunned the Call of Duty community with his favorite controller mod that abused a Modern Warfare 2 (2009) exploit. When it comes to celebrities who are gamers, Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet might take the cake as one of the nerdiest. Chalamet\u2019s old controller modding channel was discovered by Vice in a 2021 investigation and it\u2019s been a huge talking point ever since. It all eventually led to Chalamet presenting The Game Awards\u2019 GOTY as his original moniker, ModdedController360, all while promoting his upcoming films Wonka and Dune: Part Two. So the question had to be asked. What\u2019s Chalamet\u2019s favorite controller mod? IGN asked just that. In an interview with IGN, Chalamet was asked the pertinent question, of which his answer would make any older Call of Duty fan excited. \u201cI might be a little outdated now, but back in the day, it was something with a trigger mod,\u201d he said. \u201cIt was like an FAL, with a single trigger, you could unlock it with a mod.\u201d Essentially, Chalamet\u2019s favorite mod was a simple trigger mod you can do to shorten the travel distance to actuate the button. However, during the era of 2009\u2019s Modern Warfare 2 and early Black Ops, if the trigger mod was paired with an FAL, it was an insanely effective combo that was never intended by the devs. The FAL is the highest damage rifle across multiple CoD games, however, a main drawback is that it\u2019s semi-automatic, which means you can only shoot one bullet per trigger press. But, if paired with a trigger mod which makes it easier to consistently shoot at a fast pace, it essentially morphed into an overpowered gun the likes of which the devs never intended. And the community\u2019s reaction to his choice was one of joy, and also disdain of him being one to abuse such an exploit. \u201cLove him but damn he was a little rat on the sticks,\u201d a player jokingly commented in a Reddit thread about his choice. Another player commented on IGN\u2019s original post, \u201cI like how he knows the marketing, if a person likes or relates they\u2019ll go support. FAL almost got me watching Wonka.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
