Call Of Duty: Warzone’s latest patch nerfs its two most dominant gunsIt remains to be seen if it’ll make a difference, though
It remains to be seen if it’ll make a difference, though

Over the last few weeks it’s been FFAR and AUG central in Warzone. The former is a rapid-firing assault rifle that’s rendered the submachine gun category useless, while the latter is a burst-fire number with ridiculous damage at range. It’s proven to be an unbeatable combo.
Raven Software’slatest patchtargets both of these weapons. First up is the AUG, which they’ve confusingly referred to as the “Cold War Tactical Rifle Charlie” (literally no-one calls it this). Anyway, they’ve upped its recoil so it should make it more difficult to rattle off shots and stay accurate at longer ranges.

It’s worth quickly noting that this is actually the second AUG nerf over the last few weeks. Raven Software increased its recoil with Warzone Season Two’smid-season updateat the end of March. I’ve not had time to test it, but from watching a few clips, it does seem to be trickier to handle at long range, but it looks like it’ll still be a mid-range powerhouse.
If you need to adjust your loadouts accordingly, I’d recommend keeping an eye on our bestFFARandAUGsetup guides as they’ll be updated pronto.
