The Nail Gun is one of the three guns to be released in Season 4 of Warzone, joining the likes of the MG 82 LMG and C58 Assault Rifle. While Raven Software has already announced that the MG 82 will be getting a nerf, it looks like the Nail Gun has slipped under the radar. Unlike both the new LMG AR, the Nail Gun doesn\u2019t feature any attachments. However, this hasn\u2019t stopped this pint-sized tool from wreaking havoc across Verdansk. Despite lacking decent range and a slow fire rate, the Nail Gun can quickly punch a hole through even the game\u2019s most well-armored foes. Does the Nail Gun need a nerf? The Nail Gun can down an opponent within four shots, making it extremely lethal in short engagement ranges. If this wasn\u2019t enough, its mobility is incredibly high, which gives players the opportunity to aggressively rush their opponents and deliver speedy flanks. It\u2019s these strengths that have led many Warzone players to call for a nerf. \u201cIt\u2019s a troll weapon meant entirely for p***ing around in 6v6 multiplayer,\u201d says Damien23123. \u201cIt\u2019s got no place being a meta SMG in a BR game. It should be nerfed to the point where it\u2019s unusable as a proper SMG.\u201d Raven Software has been quick to address the new MG 82 after players noted how lethal it was, but it looks like the Nail Gun has managed to escape the nerf gun. While it may be seen as a \u201ctroll weapon\u201d by some, it doesn\u2019t mean it can\u2019t compete with the current meta SMGs. In fact, the Nail Gun has proven that it can go above and beyond them. \u201cIt might be fun as a headshot-oriented weapon with terrible accuracy outside of 5-10 meters, low chest damage, and almost no extremity damage,\u201d says Exxxtra_Dippp. It\u2019s a troll weapon to begin with. Make the damage profile compliment that.\u201d Whether the Warzone developers will make any adjustments to the Nail Gun remains to be seen, but for now, it looks like players will have to take extra care when engaging in close-quarter fights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone fans demand Nail Gun nerf as \u201ctroll weapon\u201d becomes OP Activision \/ TreyarchWarzone\u2019s Season 4 updated added the Nail Gun to the game\u2019s ever-growing arsenal, but players are now asking for Raven to nerf it just days after its release.
