Have you been playing Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 multiplayer and fell victim to Prophet’s Tempest weapon and thought that it was just a little too good? If you have, you’re not alone, and it seems this Specialist weapon really is unfair given its super generous hitbox and we have proof!
Thanks to gamer _Skaikru_ on Reddit (Lofti on Twitter) we can now see just how unfair the Black Ops 4 Tempest hitbox registration is! Don’t believe me? Check out the video below.
As you can see, based on the test, if the Tempest is fired and it’s somewhat close to the body of the target, it WILL register as a hit. And given one hit is all it takes to incapacitate the target, it’s almost always a kill for the other team.
While this might is annoying in itself given how OP it is currently, Treyarch is on the case! Treyarch has confirmed that this is being looked into and has even mentioned it specifically in the latest patch rolled out earlier today! For today’s update, Treyarch lowered the Tempest ammo from 14 to 10, and also added this little nugget of info you might have overlooked, which states, “Additional tuning to Tempest accuracy incoming soon.”
There you have it. You can now show people how unfair the Tempest is in case they think you’re just whining. Did you notice any other inaccurate or overpowered Specialist ability in Black Ops 4? If so, share ’em in the comments below.
