Warzone players furious as DMR nerfs actually make the gun more accurate ActivisionFollowing highly anticipated nerfs to Warzone\u2019s controversial DMR 14, players have lashed out at Raven Software after realizing the weapon is actually better in some ways than it was before. While the Warzone community rejoiced as nerfs finally arrived for the DMR on January 6, it wasn\u2019t all too long before the joy turned to frustration. A few hours after the patch and various players had determined that the gun\u2019s recoil was surprisingly easier to control than before. Headshot damage has indeed been reduced as intended. Though the secondary nerf that looked to \u2018increase recoil\u2019 has had the opposite effect in practice. Many players are reporting that they \u201ccan\u2019t feel a difference.\u201d Despite the slight damage adjustment, early reactions to the patch indicate the DMR will reign supreme for a little while longer. In response to the patch breakdown, popular Warzone player NICKMERCS responded with a simple \u201cW.\u201d Two hours later, however, he came back to update his opinion. \u201cAfter playing, I take back my W and change it to an L.\u201d After playing, I take back my W. And change it to an L. \u2014 FaZe Nickmercs (@NICKMERCS) January 6, 2021 The weapon being just as strong as usual was a common response in our initial thread on Twitter. \u201cWith every squad using 4 DMRs you\u2019re still gonna get melted regardless,\u201d one player said. \u201cStill DMRzone man, feels bad,\u201d another chimed in. Reddit echoed the same sentiment with the community largely calling for another set of nerfs. \u201cIt\u2019s done f*** all. Now we get to wait another month. Worst nerf ever.\u201d Read more: Warzone finisher would have let you teabag – It\u2019s still broken,\u201d \u2018beeker96\u2019 explained. \u201cThey didn\u2019t fix the real issues with the DMR like it\u2019s stupid fast fire rate or extremely high damage at any range to the body. Thing will still 2-3 shot you to the body at distance.\u201d Comment byu\/Aimless212 from discussion inCODWarzone The DMR has dominated Warzone\u2019s meta for the majority of Season One. It took weeks for this first set of changes to arrive. Meaning it could be a while yet before the developers take further action. Though with such a strong backlash to the first wave of DMR nerfs, perhaps it won\u2019t take quite as long the next time around. If you\u2019re hopping back into Warzone anytime soon, expect to still see the DMR more often than any other weapon. It may take another shot or two for players to be wiped out. Though these shots will come with more precision than they did before the update.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
