Call of Duty: Warzone is currently one of the most popular Battle Royales on the market. Although the game consumes a total of 190 gigabytes of storage space, the number of players is increasing. Now of course the game balance plays a big role, which should be maintained with the help of patches. The latest of these has been online since May 7th and brings important changes with it.
For example, some bugs and exploits have been fixed and Demolition also makes it a fan favorite among the game modes in Modern Warfare. The most important innovation is the massive one Nerf hated .357 Snake Shot Akimbo revolvers. The weapon has frustrated the community for a long time, now it seems to have finally been put to an end.
Why was the weapon so powerful?
The problem is with the adjustments: The .357 revolver does not really make anything special in its normal form, but one should not ignore the adjustments typical for Warzone.
If you add the extension "Snake Shot", the weapon almost becomes a kind of shotgun. If you equip the Akimbo skill that lets you carry two weapons at the same time, chaos is inevitable.
For some time now, players have been complaining about the »Overpowering, homemade Akimbo shotgun«. Now this problem appears to have been solved and fairness in Warzone has been done a favor by reducing both damage and range. A Reddit user shows what the destructive combination looked like before the patch with the following video:
Not the only overpowering weapon
Reddit is relieved and worried at the same time: Although the community is looking forward to the Revolver Nerf on Reddit, some users point to a problem: The Snake Shot Revolver is not the only weapon that some Warzone players call unfair.
The Renetti, which is considered the best secondary weapon in the game, is also a problem and, according to the majority of Reddit users, the new hate object number one:
"The meta will simply shift in favor of Rinetti."
"How long will it take until this page is filled with" Nerft the Renetti! "?"

So there is more than enough for the developers to doto keep the community happy. In addition to the weapon nerfs, they demand, among other things, better online matchmaking and the fixing of a problem in which players with a too low ping negatively influenced the gameplay.
Although matchmaking issues have been resolved according to the official patch notes, there still seem to be complaints about it.
Popular game mode Demolition is back
But not only the weapon nerf is new, a long-required game mode has found its way into the Battle Royale: Demolition is back! The popular mode is already known from previous games in the series and is now part of Call of Duy: Warzone.
The mode has striking similarities to the "Search and Destroy" that already exists in the game: You have to destroy enemy bombs and defend your own. In Demolition, however, you can respawn an unlimited number of times, and the round goes here instead of ending with the destruction of the bomb.
