Call of Duty: Warzone update makes adjustments to C58 and Nail Gun

A new weapon update is now available for Call of Duty: Warzone that makes changes to the C58, Fara 83, and Nail Gun.

The C58 and Fara 83 have both received slight recoil increases, while the Nail Gun has had its damage range reduced by a whopping 39 percent. Developer Raven Software explained that the Nail Gun nerf is due to it being able to dispatch enemies at the same speed or faster than shotguns at twice the range.

Changes have also been made to several barrels to decrease their vertical recoil control. The adjustments range from a 2.5 percent nerf up to a five percent nerf depending on the barrel.

“We felt with the magnitude by which recoil was being reduced, there was hardly any room left to master the control of these Weapons,” the developer added. “We want Weapons to reward you for learning their reload timings, recoil patterns, and bullets to kill. Your proficiency with a Weapon should be a journey that is worked toward with an equivalent payoff.”
