News - Warzone 2: The New Weapons Update. Weapon Balancing, Meta Update, More
Ladies and gentlemen, hey. We are of course going to see a massive new weapons update. We get some new weapons to actually play around with in the game, but then we also see updates to a lot of the other weapons in the form of various buffs and nerfs to balance things out and adjust them accordingly, and today we are breaking down all the known information we have on this new weapons update as well as a bit of a preview and some guesstimations.
New tempus torrent weapon in warzone 2.0 and modern warfare ii
We do have one more ranged weapon dropping for season two, and that is the Tempest. This is going to be a brand new Marksman rifle. This is very similar to, say, the SR-25, if you will, as a good general comparison there, and we actually already have a good amount of details here on this weapon based off of the recent Call of Duty blogs, so let's learn a little bit more about the Tempest Torrent, shall we?
Season 2 Reloaded brings a brand new Marksman rifle to the table. I'm not sure why they can't just call it the SR-25 or whatever else, but, hey, here we are. This weapon offers impressive damage and a fast firing mechanism, making it a great primary weapon. Choice when deploying to the new Hemat.
Expo multiplayer map, or Ashika Islands, this hard-hitting DMR from The Tempest Armament offers the versatility of the M4 platform and the velocity and impact of the 762. Rounds with patient hands and Kenai will result in on-target shots and quick kills, so essentially this is going to be a very powerful weapon, but it might not have the best TTK if you're not able to land your shots.
It's really similar to pretty much every other semi-auto weapon in the game right now. They continue by saying that with a base capacity of 20 rounds, you can afford to utilize its fast fire rate in the heat of battle, a.k.a. You could actually use this close to mid-range and spam it because the faster fire rate will allow you to do so; the recoil, though predictable, is a steady hand with a quick but noticeable kick up and to the left, so we already have the recoil pattern for it, like the KV broadside released earlier in season two.
The Tempest Torrent has the unique property of being a new weapon on an existing platform from MW2. Why is this important? Well, this means that as you're leveling it up from level one, you're probably going to be able to equip several attachments, if you haven't already. They also say the Tempest is typically a two-shot elimination, unless you can land a headshot up through the mid-range.
Try pairing it with a short-range weapon like a sidearm or an SMG, using overkill for approaching tight areas like the Event Center, which is obviously in regards to multiplayer. By the way, in terms of its two-shot properties, that's going to be different for the war zone with the armor. Now to round out the description of the Tempest torrent, here we also get the unlock challenge for it, which usually we don't see up until the time that the weapon drops, so this is definitely cool.
Now In order to unlock the Tempest torrent for free, you need to get 25 double kills with marksman rifles; this can be done in Warzone multiplayer or DMZ, and quite frankly, it's going to be the easiest to do it in multiplayer if you can play some of the smaller maps like shipment or farm18, like shoot house double kills are going to come pretty naturally.
At that point, we'll have to see what our playlist offering is for season two reloaded. Hopefully, we have some kind of mosh pit that features those. But yeah, it's going to be a free multiplayer weekend, so that should help out some in regards to accessing multiplayer and getting those challenges done real quick so you can actually unlock this in a pretty short amount of time. 25 double kills Not really too challenging for what it's worth, there will also be a store bundle for the Tempest torrent as well that obviously will probably run for like 2400 Cod points and unlock that blueprint-specific version of the weapon if you want to go about it that way now.
New weapon balancing update confirmed
As we get into some of our other weapon update conversations here with weapon adjustments, balancing buffs and nerfs, and all that stuff.
But, per usual with the mid-season update as well as all the seasonal launch updates, we are going to be seeing some new weapon balancing and some new weapon tuning, not in regards to physical weapons, where you adjust the attachments, but to the damage properties. To the range of property multipliers All sorts of stuff like that was applied to various weapons either to buff them and make them more competitive or to nerf them and bring them back more in line with some of the other more balanced out weapons in the game now as of.
Huge kv broadside & dragons breath nerfs incoming
Right now, we have one specific major tuning update that's already been confirmed. We of course talked about this one a few days ago when Infinity Ward posted this tweet here saying, Season Two Reloaded will include several global weapon balance changes, including a damage reduction to the KV broadside and the dragon's breath rounds.
Full patch notes with these changes will be available on the 15th, so this is our first official confirmation for what weapons are going to be buffed or nerfed. In this case, the KV broadside is going to be getting a damage reduction, so it's not going to hit nearly as hard and likely will join the other shotguns, including the In the game right now, where for the most part they're relatively obsolete, they're kind of tricky to balance as they're either super strong up close and broken to the point where nothing beats a shotgun or they're just getting too many hit markers and not worth using, which is the case for a lot of them right now.
Regardless, we know the KV Broadside is going to receive a damaged nerf with Season 2 Reloaded, and on top of that. There are some pretty important nerfs there: the KB broadside with the fire rounds and the 25-round drum is probably the most broken gun in the game right now, so that will be receiving a nerf; we know that for sure outside.
One shot sniper update in warzone 2
Of that, the other weapon buffs, nerfs, and adjustments are, kind of, up in the air; they haven't confirmed anything outside of that, unfortunately, but we know for a fact that several global weapon balances are coming, as Infinity Ward alluded to in that one change that we should see not necessarily at the launch of Season 2 Reloaded but perhaps shortly afterwards.
