The patch released on 30 June has brought us a bunch of weapon nerfs in addition to the return of Rebirth Island and some bug fixes. Two guns have been hit particularly hard.
The latest Warzone patch brings us Rebirth Island and bug fixes as well as a bunch of weapon changes. Especially the new weapons have been affected this time. We have summarised the most important changes for you.
R.I.P. NZ-41
After the NZ-41 was already generated with the launch of Season 4 on 22 June, it now hits again a week later. The assault rifle had become an extremely easy-to-use and powerful weapon due to its attachments, which made it extremely popular in no time. In addition to the NZ-41, the Nerfhammer also hit the relatively new UGM-8, H4 Blixen and Marco 5 weapons. After sniper rifles were generated into irrelevance in Season 3, three of them have now received a small buff. Whether this is enough to make them playable again, however, is doubtful.
