Warzone players call for Modern Warfare weapon buffs after guns become \u201cunplayable\u201d ActivisionWith Season 5 of Warzone and Black Ops Cold War right around the corner, some players are calling for the Modern Warfare weapons to be revisited and buffed in the popular battle royale title. It\u2019s fair to say that Season 4 hasn\u2019t fared brilliantly for Warzone, with many players and top creators making the switch to Apex Legends as the hacking problem continues to run rampant. That said, of the players that have stuck around, more problems exist than just the hackers, and one major issue for some is the weapon balancing in the game. While the meta has been far more open throughout the last few seasons, with a number of weapons across all classes viable, there has been a noticeable phasing out of Modern Warfare weapons from the meta. That hasn\u2019t been lost on the most dedicated players and, to those who prefer the classic Modern Warfare guns over those of Cold War, is a serious source of frustration. As explained by TetraVaal2154 on Reddit, and with much support and corroboration from the wider community, the lack of viable Modern Warfare assault rifles has made the game \u201cunplayable.\u201d \u201cVirtually every CW rifle is a \u2018meta\u2019 compared to even the best MW rifles,\u201d they explained. \u201cIt\u2019s made this game virtually unplayable for someone like myself, that really does not want to use cartoon weapons in a game that originally had a team of people that at least understood basic weapon mechanics while IW were working on the game.\u201d The post picked up several hundred upvotes and awards on Reddit, with a huge swathe of players in agreement. One commenter argued that the formerly-meta Kilo 141 is \u201cliterally dead\u201d and needs a buff, while another pointed out that \u201cAll MW guns have substantially more recoil, and less mobility\u201d than their Cold War counterparts. Of course, there were some comments disagreeing, but there\u2019s definitely a dedicated base of players that would love to see the OG Warzone guns experience a revival. With CoD 2021 coming out in just a few short months, though, we don\u2019t know how likely that is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
