WhenCall of Duty: Warzonekicked off itsBlack Ops Cold Warintegration with Season 1, it saw a huge influx of new guns. The vast majority ofCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warweapons were added toCall of Duty: Warzoneovernight, throwing the game’s balance into some chaos. Some of theCall of Duty:Black Ops Cold Warweapons have proven to be far too overpowered inWarzone, with the DMR 14 being the most notorious example.
Fans and celebrities alike havecomplained about howCall of Duty: Warzone’s DMR is so overpoweredthat it is making the game “unplayable” for many people. Raven Software, the studio that is now leading development onCall of Duty: Warzonecontent, has promised that a DMR nerf is coming in a future balance update for the game. Raven Software didn’t specify exactly how it will be nerfing the DMR inCall of Duty: Warzone, but it did specify that the nerf would only apply to the gun inWarzone. It will remain untouched in standardCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warmultiplayer.

Meanwhile, the DMR isn’t the only weapon that Raven Software has in its crosshairs. The studio has also announced plans to address the Type 63, Mac 10, and dual pistols.Call of Duty: Warzone’s Mac 10is perhaps the second most notorious weapon in the game right now, with many players rolling a DMR/Mac 10 set-up in the game.
Call of Duty: Warzonebalance changes will be made on a regular basis, and this is far from the first time that overpowered guns needed to be dialed down in the game. All kinds ofOPCall of Duty: Warzonegunshave been re-balanced since the game’s launch last year, and it’s not something that’s going to end anytime soon.
Balance changes have also been made toCall of Duty: Warzoneequipment as well. There once was a time when virtually everyCall of Duty: Warzoneloadout had C4, as the explosive devices were crucial to the game’s meta.Call of Duty: Warzone’s C4 was nerfed and it is no longer nearly as prevalent as it once was in the battle royale game, and after the upcoming balance update, it’s quite possible the same will be said for weapons like the DMR and Mac 10.
But withCall of Duty: Warzoneconstantly adding new content, it’s more likely than not that future weapons will once again upset the game’s balance. For example,Call of Duty: WarzoneSeason 2will undoubtedly add more weapons to the battle royale, and it will be interesting to see how the community reacts to them.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
