Call of Duty: Warzone Additions and Subtractions with the release of Black Ops Cold War
Once upon a time, the gamer community was looked at as this scary, evil entity to developers. “Gamers don’t know better than us.” Was a common sentiment and games would come and go without heeding fan advice which was always strange to me because who the hell do you think is buying your product? Luckily, in 2020, the weird gets weirder as one of the newest additions to Warzone comes in the form of the bomb drone. What does the bomb drone do you might ask?
https://www.reddit.com/r/CODWarzone/comments/g5yfx1/decided_to_give_the_c4_drone_strike_a_go_worked/?ref=share&ref_source=embed&utm_content=body&utm_medium=post_embed&utm_name=99bc3ff40b004667b95fd898c998804f&utm_source=embedly&utm_term=g5yfx1
Literally that. It takes the creativity of some clever gamers and puts it right into the game, no credit is given, just a complete ripoff that I honestly didn’t even know existed until it was discovered in-game this week. Turns out this little fella isn’t really widely available unless you know where to look. The main spot this bastard of a device has appeared has been in the bunkers though and it unsurprisingly works in the exact same way the fans wanted it to work. The difference here is it feels like we’ve been punished for being creative. Sure, it’s still doable in the game, but seeing the developers just turn a fan-made dream into another pickup feels….wrong. If anything, they should’ve promoted its use in their game as a way to show people that anything is possible when it comes to creating strategy in Warzone. Instead, the addition comes off as almost like they’re ashamed to add it considering it’s so hard to find in the first place.
The other big addition lately is private matches. I’m not entirely sure of the purpose here, but Imagine if you’re trying to set a game up in large communities, say right here for example, the private match would allow you to fill the game with just the people you want to play with so you don’t have to worry about hackers and other annoyances while playing. The minimum needed to start Battle Royale is 50, Plunder Mode is 30, and Mini Royale, if it even exists still, is 24. I imagine this will be a great way to set up small scale tournaments possibly amongst friends, create Call of Duty: Warzone leagues which would create even more interest in the competitive gaming community as well as a way to just shrink the player size to create less in chaotic matches than we’re accustomed to. I think this might be the start of the Warzone starting to experiment with the option of playing multiple different game sizes. While Mini-royale is a taste of this, to me, it cuts away too much of what makes Warzone so thrilling to play. There’s very little time to scavenge and scout out the areas and it makes for a weird mix between team deathmatch and the normal Warzone formula. What I want is bigger. I want the 200 player battle royales back. To me, that always felt like the magic number when it came to a map of this size.
This might just be a gripe for me, but why the hell did they get rid of zombies? They really went through all the trouble of creating what ended up being an excellent mode, only to jettison it after two freakin weeks? My hope is that it’s getting fine-tuned for a daytime version in Warzone because it was easily the biggest adrenaline shot the game has felt in the 8 months we’ve had access to it. They couldn’t have gone through the creation of a game mode just to say screw it after one event right? RIGHT?
So, what do you think of the recent changes to Call of Duy: Warzone? Let’s talk about it below.

My First Thoughts on Black Ops: Cold War
Black Ops Cold War has finally released, and it has got a lot of people excited. Although we still need to know how it will be integrated into Warzone, its multiplayer has spoken volumes on what the game can bring to the future and seasons ahead. Here are my first thoughts on the release of Black Ops: Cold War
The first thing that I realized is that this game is unfinished. Unlike other releases, there are a lot of bugs and issues with the game itself. First of all, it has a very limited amount of weapons. Given the SMG, LMG, shotgun, rifle, and sniper classes, there are only 29 guns on the board. The final version of the game will not have such limited guns, but given the number of weapons on board, that is an average of 6 weapons per class. A lot of the challenges and progress made on them are also being rolled back. Sometimes, I have even unlocked the exact camo skin twice despite unlocking it prior to the second achievement. This also happens with in-game challenges. Further, you feel a general lack of polish in the game, mainly from the bugs that it does have. Although there are these issues, given the pandemic, the developers did a great job given the circumstances. Nonetheless, what has come out so far has been impressive.
The second thing that I realized is the fluidity of the game. There is so much more accuracy and control in the guns that you do have in Cold War’s Multiplayer. Although Warzone did have this feeling with their weaponry, the level of control/accuracy that you do have with the Cold War is amazing. The sensitivity levels are more in tune as well. The maps are also contributing to the fluidity of the game, and are much simpler and less complex for players to run around in. if you are a run and gun kind of player, a lot of the maps will be working in your favor. There are also tons of flanking options at these maps giving that BO4-esque vibes.
Finally, the graphics of the game, although subjective, are a lot better and brighter than the previous versions of Black Ops that we have seen. There is better opponent-background contrast, and seeing opponents is a lot easier. It can be improved, of course, but given its current state, we should see a huge difference in graphics and its interplay with gunfights. The weapons are also very unique in their own way. However, the MP5 has been severely overpowered and therefore overused. Given that, developers have been working to reduce its capabilities for a more all-around gameplay experience for players.
Do you agree with what I said? Let me know in the comments below!

Akimbo Fennecs are Tearing the CoD Mobile Community Apart!
Activision has been extremely generous with updates for CoD Mobile. There’ve been constant additions made in the game in terms of weapons, game modes, maps, etc. Most of the time the items are at least respected for existing. For example we have Terminal added to the map list. There isn’t anything extremely significant about it but there aren’t any issues with it, for say. But one added item has caused extreme controversy and seems to be a major issue… to some people. We’re talking about the akimbo Fennecs.
The akimbo attachment has been a popular one that has been present in many Call of Duty games over the years. It’s been extremely helpful for players who like to play close quarter maps and want an advantage on available ammo, though many times this results in a reduction in accuracy. This is true in every game it seems except CoD Mobile.
The akimbo Fennecs have led players online on social media platforms, battling with words to figure out the solution we need, if any. There are arguments that they do too much damage, are too accurate, or simply need to be removed to be balanced.
Now to be fair, there’s always going to be annoying playstyles for “casual” players. By casual, I mean those players who use mid-range weapons for all maps, regardless if they’re close-quartered or long-ranged. So, snipers, shotguns, and other styles can become annoying but at least they’re being played on their respective maps (usually). The akimbo Fennecs have been destroying EVERYONE on EVERY map, though.
As a base weapon, the Fennec is actually horrendous. The recoil is absolutely detrimental for the typical player and requires a lot of adjusting to so you can efficiently use it. The akimbo seems to make things easier for various reasons. First off, you can’t ADS meaning you can pull downwards to reverse the effects of the recoil MUCH easier. Additionally, you seem to have better hip-fire accuracy with akimbo and also have TWO of the weapons (obviously). The doubling of the weapon essentially makes a BUFFED weapon equipable… twice.
How can you counter these dual-wielding players? Well, first off you have to gain some distance and hope that their high sprint speed won’t be hard to track with your shots. Also, there’s a need to be ready for them to turn around and suddenly “pray and spray” you down. So, grab a strong weapon with a fast fire rate so you’re overpowered to them (sounds like a Fennec to me). Additionally, you should drop-shot them if you can (an extremely frowned upon playstyle in the game). This mixed together can bring some easier kills on them.
What do I personally think the solution is to this problem? I think it’s all about the ammo capacity and accuracy preservation (or increase). Reduce the ammo and suddenly they’re more likely to hide, push smaller groups of players, and play MUCH differently. Also, the base weapon isn’t very viable for hip-firing… so why are we not DOUBLING the hip-fire control problems when we have TWO of the weapons? Simply decrease the accuracy and your problems are solved. Easy.
That’s all I have to say on the topic. Maybe I’m biased for not trying out the akimbo Fennecs myself but there is no need for trying something that is obviously overpowered at the moment. I can foresee a nerf coming in the near future but I’m not sure when it’ll be launched. It’ll be interesting to see what changes they incorporate and how they manage to even out the playing field with the weapons. Let me know what you think below!

How to Properly Use CoD Mobile Scorestreaks!
Enough talk about guns, game modes, and other nonsense. Recently I saw a lot of issues in games in terms of scorestreak usage. Players were using scorestreaks in horrible ways or in ways that could’ve been more effective. Today, we’re going to talk about how to use each scorestreak in a more logical and beneficial manner.
1. UAV
You shouldn’t be spamming these all the time if you don’t need them. It’s illogical for many reasons with the number one reason being that you’re wasting the scorestreak if you have two in the air. Make sure you’re watching your minimap to assure yourself that you’re not wasting your planes. Oh yea… don’t call them in while there’s an enemy SAM Turret, either. Not fun.
2. Counter-UAV
This is pretty much the same thing as the UAV. Just take a peek at the sky and be aware if there’s one in the sky or not. If there’s a SAM Turret… handle that, please.
3. Shield Turret
Though the Shield Turret isn’t very popular anymore, it’s still a viable scorestreak. Make sure to place this with your back covered by other teammates or by a solid surface. Aim down sights onto a long alleyway or open streak and BOOM… instant success.
4. Shock RC
I love the Shock RC because of the simplicity of using it. You’re basically getting yourself a free kill whenever you get it and it’s super easy since it’s a low point requirement to get. Make sure you’re using this on close ranged maps for potential multi-enemy stuns and abuse the power of the little guy! It’ll become such a close friend of yours that you should name it (I call my, Roger).
5. Hunter Killer Drone
This is a no-brainer. Aim up and throw. If you see a target you REALLY want to kill, throw it a little angled up, not straight at them. The last thing you want is to have it hit someone running past you or something. That’s infuriating.
6. Care Package
I recommend those using this to use Engineer as a perk to re-roll whenever they get a Care Package, in case your reward sucks. Make sure you’re safe from any potential enemy fire and abuse it. OR, if you’re a REAL scumbag like me (heehee), use it as an impenetrable head-glitch spot on any map you’d like. Pure evil… I like it.
7. Predator Missile
Great for objective game modes or when there’s a bunch of people in one spot, outside. Use it in more “outdoors” kinds of maps. That way you can easily get some kills and clear sites and whatnot. Pretty basic usage.
8. Sentry Gun
This one can be an extreme rage inducer for the enemy if you use it correctly. You want to make sure you place this where it can’t be snuck up on too easily. Allow it to have as much visible space in front of it as possible and just place it down. If you want, place a trip mine or something near it to throw off any close range attackers to keep them away for a bit. Devious playstyles make for great wins.
9. SAM Turret
Not commonly used but super easy to get points with on maps like Shipment where flying scorestreaks are everywhere. Plop one down out of the way of everyone and everything (the best that you can) and watch the points rack up over and over again to help you onto the next scorestreak on your list!
10. XS1 Goliath
It’s fun and it’s a horrible thing to fight. Use the Goliath whenever you can so you can capture points and hold them like a tank. Just be aware that you can also self-destruct if death seems innement with enemies swarming you. That’s a quick self-exploded robot multi-kill if I’ve ever seen one!
11. Cluster Strike
I LOVE this one for Hardpoint on Shipment. The explosion radius is actually a little broken on this scorestreak so you can place it smack in the middle of Shipment and it’ll kill anyone who’s crossing the intersections from the sides, as well. It’s just important you don’t kill yourself in the process. Also, place it just outside the side objectives if you want to kill enemies inside of the crates and on the sites, as well!
12. Stealth Chopper
The Stealth Chopper is kind of funny to use because you place it wherever you want and it sort of lingers and picks off whoever it feels like picking off. Definitely useful for “outdoors” like maps, again. Just drop it down and it’ll go.
13. Advanced UAV
This one isn’t used as much as we should use it. I’m not completely sure if it can be shot down but from past experiences, I don’t think it can be. If you’re using the minimap a lot then go for this one and abuse it! Also, make sure you’re not using something like Alert as a perk as the two are counterintuitive if you really think about it.
14. VTOL
The VTOL is annoying to have to shoot down so if you’re ballsy enough to get it then use it as you please. Once you’re in, start finding the typical respawn points as these will be the target locations to keep hitting once you and your team start racking up kills. Take care of anyone you can and just spawn kill them at this point to prevent any rockets that are flying at you!
15. MQ-27 Dragonfire
This one’s a cool one on bigger maps. Because it’s tough finding enemies, you can just mark them and make the best of it! This benefits teammates as well so do that as soon as you can and then go hunt the enemies out!
That’s pretty much it! There’s lots of combinations that work depending on the map and game mode you’re playing. Use the right order of scorestreaks together and you can find yourself living longer and dropping more kills per game! Have fun and good luck out there!
