Since all of theCall Of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warguns were folded into Warzone in December, it didn’t take long for players to realise that theDMRtactical rifle was head and shoulders above the rest. I gave it a go myself, and my word, is it something. You’d think a semi-automatic weapon would be at a disadvantage, but nope, pull the trigger fast enough and you’ll take someone out frighteningly quickly. And with little recoil and high accuracy to boot, it’s no wonder players are flocking to the thing in droves.
The Type 63 is basically the DMR’s shoddier counterpart; not as good, but still very strong. Then there’s theMac-10, a rectangle which shreds - it justshredsat close range. Not to mention thedual Diamatti pistols. They’re burst-fire handguns which require you to point vaguely in the direction of your opponent, click your mouse rapidly, and bam, that’s a tango down.

It’s worth noting that these balance changes are exclusive to Warzone, so these weapons won’t be nerfed for Cold War’s multiplayer modes. A strong decision in my books, as they seem fine to me in regular multiplayer and it would seem a bit much to tank their stats across the board.
Over 30 weapons were jammed into Warzone from Cold War, so balance issues were almost an inevitability as Cold War weapon stats differ from Warzone and Modern Warfare’s offerings. Honestly, I’m surprised more weapons haven’t been outed as totally broken, who knows what’s going to dominate the meta next.
