Days later and developers have promised a fix is on the way. Despite the battle royale\u2019s incredible popularity, Warzone players have had common complaints since the game\u2019s launch, generally focusing on bugs, glitches, and cheating. While Raven appears to have got on top of the former problems, they are still facing an uphill battle when it comes to banning cheaters and hackers. It also appears that, in Season 3, some players are unhappy about Warzone\u2019s in-game weather. It\u2019s generally very sunny in Verdansk. As a result, some players have stated that the sun makes gunfights incredibly difficult to carry out. It has even catalyzed some calls from players to permanently change the weather in Verdansk to avoid the issues. While it may not have been on their radar at first, Raven Software is now well aware of the issue. Lead Warzone VFX Artist Reed Shingledecker addressed this very article and assured that a fix is on the way. In a May 21 Reddit post, Warzone player \u2018IYIonaghan\u2019 asked \u201cWhat the f**k is up with the sun in this game? Does anyone else find the sun annoying in this game? Its so f**king bright [it] makes so many fights like 5x harder because you\u2019re almost completely blinded, is there a way to turn the brightness of it down?\u201d A number of other players echoed their comments \u2013 with one even saying they\u2019ve been bothered by the sun since Warzone\u2019s launch in March of 2020. Another suggested altering the sun\u2019s position every match, meaning players dropping in certain areas will not be disproportionately affected. \u201cThe sun should be in a random spot each round,\u201d they said, \u201cwhich affects shadows and which direction has most glare!\u201d While the issues are traceable back to Warzone\u2019s launch and Modern Warfare, many have pointed out more issues in Verdansk \u201984, which dropped back in April. Soon after we compiled this backlash, Raven Software\u2019s Shingledecker replied on Twitter. \u201cIs this true? The sun lens flare in Verdansk \u201984 is bothering people? I can easily tone it down if needed.\u201d It didn\u2019t take long for the response to gain traction. Tons of Warzone\u2019s biggest names jumped in to further explain the issue and why a fix is necessary. \u201cLooks like I know what I\u2019m doing on Monday,\u201d Shingledecker soon followed up. \u201cI\u2019m happy to look and address any VFX concerns. Thanks for the feedback.\u201d Looks like I know what I&#8217;m doing on Monday. I&#8217;m happy to look and address any VFX concerns. Thanks for the feedback. I don&#8217;t have the power to change the entire lighting of the map though. Lighting feedback can be sent to @RavenSoftware #Warzone \u2014 Reed S. (@fx_reed) May 23, 2021 While he doesn\u2019t quite \u201chave the power to change the entire lighting\u201d of Verdansk \u201984, he is able to \u201cadjust the brightness of the lens flare on screen.\u201d Therefore, once a fix comes through, the near-blinding rays of light emanating from the sun should be toned down quite a bit.
