Aiming Adjustments and Other Tweaks in the Patch
Aiming Adjustments
In response to player feedback, the latest update introduces adjustments to the aiming system in Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare 3. According to the patch notes, aiming down sights (ADS) with higher magnification scopes will now feel slightly faster. This change only impacts weapons with scopes of 4x magnification or higher. The update also reduces the horizontal recoil of some assault rifles, making it easier to stay on target, especially at longer ranges.
Vehicle Handling Changes
Players can also expect improvements to vehicle handling, making vehicles feel more responsive and agile. Specific vehicles like the Tac Rover, SUV, and ATV should feel more stable, allowing for quicker turning and navigation over rough terrain. These changes aim to make vehicles a more viable option for rotating between zones during matches.
Audio Mix Adjustments
Finally, the update brings adjustments to the audio mix in the game. Footsteps, for example, will now sound louder and clearer, making enemy movement easier to detect. The developers have also reduced the volume of ambient environmental noises like wind to improve the audibility of critical in-game sounds. These are welcome changes that should enhance players' situational awareness and experience in Warzone.
Overall, the Season 2 Reloaded update introduces meaningful adjustments and quality-of-life improvements to Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare 3. The patch goes live on April 22, so players can experience the changes for themselves and provide feedback to help shape future updates.
