As the end of Season 2 nears, details about the upcoming Warzone Pacific Season 3 update, now known as Classified Arms, have been unveiled to fans, and it\u2019s certainly shaping up to be a big one. A ton of new weapons, features, and map changes are expected to hit the Caldera island come April 27, and we also can\u2019t go without mentioning the \u2018Operation Monarch\u2018 event that will focus on a Godzilla and King Kong crossover on May 11. Additionally, the devs are anticipating a \u201cmeta shift for Snipers in Season 3,\u201d as they noted specific nerfs to sniper rifles are currently in the pipeline. However, fans are still concerned the weapon class will still be overpowered with the expected map changes. With the Season 3 update set for release, fans took to Reddit to discuss the upcoming additions. With plenty of new POIs being added and other various modifications, the Caldera map changes were generally well-received. However, Warzone player Lma0-Zedong noted that the foliage changes could lead to sniper rifles continuing to dominate the meta. \u201cThe problem with reducing foliage is that it will make snipers even more overpowered than what they are,\u201d they said. \u201cThe map has so little cover and so many open spaces, that reducing foliage and trees will only lead to more sniping, which is already running rampant on Caldera. The airstrip stuff is the most generic and bland thing I\u2019ve ever seen, it\u2019s an awful POI with nothing remarkable on it,\u201d they claimed. A few players agreed with their point too, but suggested that it might not just be snipers that are a headache. \u201cWith that much bland open space, I have a feeling you\u2019ll get rocked with anything when you try to cross it,\u201d said one. \u201cThis was always the problem in Verdansk, yet no seems to remember that,\u201d added another. With snipers expected to be hit with nerfs, we could potentially see them not used as much as players are anticipating. Though, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what happens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone players claim Season 3 map changes will benefit snipers despite planned nerf ActivisionWarzone players have revealed their concerns about snipers being more overpowered with the expected map changes arriving with Season 3.
