Summary

  • Warzone December update includes new sniper rifle & audio tweaks.
  • Besides new features, the update fixed bugs & restrictions while embracing the holiday season.
  • Call of Duty players can take advantage of Archie’s Festival Frenzy to “unwrap” new rewards.

As a seasoned veteran of the gaming world, I must say that the recent update for Call of Duty: Warzone has been a breath of fresh air. The AMR Mod 4 Sniper Rifle is always a welcome addition to any arsenal, and the adjustments made to the audio system are much appreciated – though I can’t help but feel a bit more exposed now that enemy footsteps have been amplified!

In the latest development, Activision has rolled out an update for the popular game Call of Duty: Warzone. This upgrade focuses on enhancing in-game audio quality, squashing bugs, and fine-tuning several weapons. Just as anticipated, both Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone receive weekly updates, aiming to address different problems and bring about improvements in the gameplay.

In December, significant modifications have been made to the “Call of Duty” gaming experience, as both “Black Ops 6” and “Warzone” received the major Season 1 Reloaded update earlier this month. Similar to previous “reloaded”-style updates in past years, this patch introduced a plethora of new content such as maps and game modes, along with fixes and tweaks for balance. Although massive updates like these are not common, the “Call of Duty” franchise leverages its live service model to keep the game exciting by implementing smaller updates regularly.

Just as anticipated, there’s a fresh update for Call of Duty: Warzone this Thursday, although this week’s fix is slightly smaller than previous ones. True to the hints given earlier, the AMR Mod 4 Sniper Rifle has now been made available for players. However, it’s worth noting that this update also limits the use of the AMR Mod 4 CHF barrel attachment, while removing restrictions on both the COR 45 Pistol and Saug Akimbo Attachment.

In a nutshell, the audio adjustments in the latest update for Call of Duty: Warzone have made some modifications. Primarily, it’s lowered the overall environmental reverb effects on all player footsteps, be they friendly or enemy. Additionally, it’s decreased the volume of first-person footsteps. To balance this out, the volume for enemy footsteps has been boosted, aiming to enhance players’ ability to perceive their surroundings more effectively than before.

In addition to the numerous modifications and improvements, “Call of Duty” has also celebrated the holiday spirit with fresh cosmetics and additional content as part of the Merry Mayhem event. The festivities, known as “CODMAS,” have commenced in both “Warzone” and “Black Ops 6,” featuring limited-time modes and a wealth of unlockables. This week, Archie’s Festival Frenzy was introduced, allowing players to open gifts by exchanging Jolly Archies. These can be acquired by racking up eliminations in multiplayer or zombies, or by discovering them during “Warzone” battles.
