COD Warzone Update for January 19 Brings Weapon Balance Changes

COD Warzone Update for January 19

Raven Software has pushed out the Call of Duty Warzone update for January 19, and this server-side patch brings balance changes to the battle royale game. Note that the gun adjustments only apply to Warzone, so Modern Warfare 3 players shouldn’t see any difference in multiplayer.

COD Warzone Update for January 19 Patch Notes:

Here’s what the official COD Updates Twitter account announced just now:

We’ve released a minor update with balance adjustments to the:

• MTZ Interceptor Marksman Rifle (MWIII)
• WSP Swarm Submachine Gun (MWIII)

Both weapons have had their damage values reduced to varying extents.

Raven Software went into more detail on what changed in terms of stats.

Here are the exact changes we’ve made to the following two weapons in #Warzone!

MTZ Interceptor (MWIII)
• Max Damage reduced to 74, down from 85
• Near-Mid Damage reduced to 72, down from 82
• Mid Damage reduced to 70, down from 80
• Min Damage reduced to 66, down from 78
• Neck Multiplier reduced to 1, down from 1.5

• Mid Damage reduced to 18, down from 22
• Far-Mid Damage reduced to 17, down from 20

In case you didn’t know, the big Season 1 Reloaded patch was released a few days ago, and along with it, a slew of issues that didn’t exactly sit well with the community.
