Call of DutyBattle Royale War zone he is just under a year old. When it was launched in March 2020, I praised the 150-player online game for a smooth game, simplified mechanics and fast-paced action. But all the functions that were done once War zone one of the best battle royals to fall into now feels hampered by the wreckage created from recent updates. As it is now, War zone it’s a dirty mess of mistakes, traps and weapon balance issues.

Following the trend of games as a live service, accumulating constant updates to a massive game like War zone it can be both a blessing and a curse. The new content keeps the game fresh with new weapons, fashions and cosmetics. But every time something is added to the game, it seems like something more is broken.

At the end of last year, War zone he spent many weeks plagued by one unlimited juggernaut problem, which allowed players to generate an infinite number of deadly streaks. The juggling suit consists of heavy armor and allows the player to wield a mini-weapon, which causes a frustrating real battle experience when dealing with only one or two of these threats. Fortunately, this issue has been resolved by now. But some old facts have resurfaced, including the defect of stimulus firing.

Stimulus shooting is a piece of tactical equipment that is used for healing, but is abused with an exploit that allows the player to have continuous, infinite healing. This allows players to intervene War zonetoxic gas, which would otherwise cause imminent death and endure all other opponents by unjust victories. Raven Software Developer he tweeted that the stimulus shooting issue was resolved with a patch last week, however some players they continue to report abuse of the equipment.

A long-term problem that has not been addressed is load freezing. Many players have reported that their game crashes for a few seconds after trying to pick up the load drop, leaving them vulnerable on the map. I haven’t personally encountered this problem, but it seems to appear quite to others.

Disputes have also been tough since December 16, when developers integrated the Black Ops Cold War weapons in the Modern Warfare-based War zone. Pouring all these extra weapons into the mix created some mistakes and balance issues. Cold WarThe DMR 14 tactical rifle was quickly converted War zoneThe most powerful pistol, which dominates the target, followed closely by the double Diamatti pistols and the MAC-10 submachine gun. A Jan. 13 update provided nerves to both the DMR 14 and the double Diamattis, but both remain powerful weapons, especially from pistols. feel completely unchanged.

On the plus side, the DMR 14 nerf has players branching out to try to find the next best weapon for long-range firefighters. I still see a lot of players running and shooting with the MAC-10 and Diamattis, but it’s nice to see a variety of weapons in play a little better. Modern WarfareThe CR-56 AMAX assault rifle is my favorite War zone, and it looks like he may be a candidate again without the DMR goal at stake.

There is also one recharge problem which can happen with some of the built-in weapons. You can start a reload of weapons and see how the animation goes, but sometimes the weapon doesn’t reload. This cost me my life in more than a couple of shots when I used the Cold War weapons inside War zone.

Some players want the Cold War weapons to pull them out War zone, but I think weapons just need proper balance. Of course, it’s worth pointing out how War zone it remains the bridge that connects the future Call of Duty titles, the set of weapons and equipment could turn into an overwhelming mess. I think Call of Duty it would be nice to take a page from Fortnite, jumping certain weapons to preserve the balance of the game and keep things cool. I can understand the hesitation of the return weapons for which players have bought cosmetics, but it would be less problematic to skip an item like the shot we love so that players don’t have a chance to abuse it.

Aside from item issues, there are still rampant traps War zone. Activision he began to fight the cheaters inside Modern Warfare i War zone in April last year, but nothing seems to stop the influx of wallhacks and aiming against this chisel to prevent the integrity of the matches. All players can really do is report the cheat from the game option, but it looks like Activision’s review and ban doesn’t matter; cheaters only make new accounts. Last May, Activision added a two-factor authentication requirement for all new features War zone PC accounts. But hackers are good at finding solutions and continue to cheat blatantly. No one wants to deal with cheaters and many content creators and professionals are pretty fed up.

In terms of integrity a War zoneIn the competitive scene, tournaments with prize money are often compromised, as players find ways to move from the skill-based combination of the game to position themselves in the “bot lobbies” of less qualified players. There have been several methods exposed, including specific routers to ping locations or use accounts with reverse enhancement statistics. The current Twitch Rivals Doritos Bowl is the first big War zone tournament since the Black Ops Cold War integration to include private lobbies to avoid skills-based marriage discrepancies. Hopefully, all future competitions will feature private lobbies, especially those tournaments with significant money.

On top of all these bigger issues, one small criticism I have is that the map of Verdansk is obsolete. I’ve been complaining for a long time that there is so much untapped potential in the Verdansk landscape. Instead of updating the map of Verdansk for the first season, we have a second map: the smallest, Cold War-thematic “Renaissance Island.” A smaller map adds a bit of variety to the landscape and pace of matches, and I often enjoy the fastest, deadliest matches during Verdansk’s slowest, most campy matches. While I still don’t think I need the same bells and whistles as Verdansk’s larger map, Rebirth Island is now my favorite choice for War zone parties.

Not all complaints here mean it War zone it may not be a fun time, but it can often be ruined by mistakes or pitfalls that should not remain as constant factors in an online shooter. I left it there for many hours War zone, and I want it to remain my favorite battle royale, but now it’s too hard to enjoy in its current state. I’d love to see a huge update that only focuses on cleaning up bugs and balancing weapons, which is more important than just getting into new cosmetics or adding time-limited fashions. War zone it needs a little TLC to get back to the fantastic shape it launched last year.
