Some Warzone 2 users strongly detest the title\u2019s hand-to-hand combat mechanics; however, the system wasn\u2019t favored in Warzone, either. Footage of the original battle royale\u2019s broken melee system often made the rounds online. The two-hit combo that could down enemies especially ignited frustrations amongst community members. Notably, the latter attack has returned in the Call of Duty: Warzone sequel to the chagrin of many dedicated players. Warzone 2 users call for a melee system overhaul Dull-Caterpillar3153 posed the following question in the Warzone subreddit \u2013 \u201cCan we all agree that two-hit-melee is stupid?\u201d The Redditor noted the same maneuver in the original Warzone gave players \u201csome of the cheesiest easy kills,\u201d before lamenting its return in Warzone 2. At the very least, they continued, such an attack should require four hits before knocking out an opponent. That a sniper rifle often requires multiple shots to down a foe further compounds the issue, the Redditor argued. Several responses to the post tend to agree with the original poster\u2019s line of thinking. \u201cAny headshot should be stronger than a melee, period. Regardless of gun,\u201d one person replied. Someone else chimed in by sharing their own experience with the inconsistencies between gunshots and melee attacks. \u201cShot a guy three times in [the] face with SMG while he was lunging toward me, he still got his two hits in on me, boom I was dead.\u201d The general consensus throughout the thread is that Warzone 2\u2019s melee should require three hits or more to down another player. It remains to be seen whether or not the developers will address these critiques.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone 2 players demand massive changes for \u201cstupid\u201d two-hit melees Activision BlizzardCall of Duty: Warzone 2 players aren\u2019t happy with the two-hit melee system, which many think is far too overpowered.
