Warzone players divided over Perk changes: Ghost nerf, Restock spam ActivisionRaven Software recently revealed major buffs and nerfs to Perks in Warzone, including Ghost, Scavenger, and Quick Fix. However, the community is split on whether or not the changes are for the better. After the Warzone Season 2 Reloaded update ushered in a slew of major changes to both Caldera and Rebirth Island, players quickly began noticing some gameplay changes that hadn\u2019t been mentioned in the patch notes. CoD expert TrueGameData discovered that the controversial Ghost Perk had been secretly nerfed into the ground, then JGOD followed up by revealing that both Quick Fix and Restock had been buffed. Raven have since confirmed that they have deployed massive changes to five Warzone Perks and updated the patch notes to reflect them. Meanwhile, the community has been fiercely debating whether or not the changes were the right call. The Ghost Perk was hit the hardest by the changes. Those using it are now only hidden from the map when moving, drastically limiting its usefulness and completely changing the way many Warzone players will approach combat. Raven also opted to increase the protection offered by E.O.D, put Stims on a 60-second cooldown and reduce the overall recharge time when using Restock, give an Armor Plate to Scavenger users when they loot an enemy, and start health regeneration when using an Armor Plate with Quick Fix. The reasoning behind the Perk revamp is that many of Warzone\u2019s options were \u201coriginally built for a multiplayer experience,\u201d and this is the developer\u2019s way of tuning the game to suit a battle royale. The updated Perks have proved divisive among players. In response to the developer\u2019s tweet, ModernWarzone called the new Perks a \u201cW,\u201d saying: \u201cLoving the most recent updates and really think the future is looking bright for Warzone!\u201d W. Loving the most recent updates and really think the future is looking bright for Warzone! \u2014 ModernWarzone (@ModernWarzone) March 28, 2022 Although some players welcomed the changes with open arms, others feel they promote styles of play that will make the game less fun overall. \u201cThe amount of toxicity that\u2019s gonna come from Restock, stuns, and flashes is going to be ridiculous,\u201d said Aldosarii on Reddit. \u201cImagine a team of 4 spamming that s**t.\u201d Others argued that Raven is catering to hardcore players more than casuals by nerfing Ghost, a popular choice for stealthy gameplay. \u201cOnce again it\u2019s a middle finger to anyone who doesn\u2019t like to play drenched in b**l sweat,\u201d replied another enraged fan. \u201cThe first circle cuts off half the map before you\u2019ve even landed, there are about a million bounties that go on you more than once and now Ghost has been nerfed. \u201cThis is bad news for the casual [players] like me,\u201d agreed Chris Ellis. \u201cFor me, the game is getting harder and harder to a point where I simply won\u2019t play. The skill gap is too large now.\u201d Once again it\u2019s a middle finger to anyone who doesn\u2019t like to play drenched in ball sweat. First circle cuts off half the map before you\u2019ve even landed, there\u2019s about a million bounties that go on you more than once and now Ghost has been nerfed. \ud83d\udd95\ud83c\udffbright back at you \u2014 Russ (@theblackwhisper) March 28, 2022 While there are vastly differing opinions among the community, the developers are clearly convinced that the tweaks are for the best, calling them a \u201cglimpse of what is to come in Season Three.\u201d We\u2019ll have to wait and see how the new-look Perks affect the flow of Warzone matches before making a judgment. Hopefully, players will adapt to them quickly and the backlash won\u2019t continue for too long into the new season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
