Warzone devs respond as players claim Precision Airstrike is \u201ccompletely useless\u201d ActivisionThe Warzone devs have addressed some fan complaints with the recent changes to Precision Airstrikes, suggesting that further changes could come to the killstreak. While the formula of Warzone is the same as other battle royales \u2013 drop in, loot up, and try to be the last team alive \u2013 it adopts plenty of mechanics from the traditional Call of Duty multiplayer modes. The most interesting of which has always been the use of killstreaks. Players are able to call in UAVs, use the Guardian heatwave to slow enemies, and wipe out squads by calling in a Precision Airstrike. However, the airstrike has caused plenty of issues at times. Over the years, fans have complained that they don\u2019t get enough of a heads-up about when an airstrike is hitting them. That prompted the devs to add a new notification in Season 2, including showing the flight path and area in which the blast would affect. Warzone devs respond to Precision Airstrike change complaints Some players have suggested that those changes have made the killstreak \u201ccompletely useless,\u201d which has prompted the devs to respond. \u201cThe range at which players will receive feedback on an incoming Precision Airstrike is < 100m from the target area, allowing players to predict ahead of an enemy player or enemy squad\u2019s movement. This distance is a metric that we will continue to monitor based on player sentiment and internal data,\u201d Raven said, commenting on the CoDWarzone subreddit. \u201cWe are passionate that the design direction the Precision Airstrike is heading in is the right one. For too long players have been hit by a Precision Airstrike without any knowledge and we heard this feedback loud and clear that it needed addressing. This feedback was also validated when we looked at our internal data which highlighted how many players were being killed significantly above and beyond other killstreaks.\u201d The devs noted that the changes have made it more difficult to get kills with the airstrike, there is now a \u201cbetter balance to the Killstreaks ecosystem.\u201d It remains to be seen if further changes will be made anytime soon, but at least the devs are still keeping a watchful eye on things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
