The Kar98k has been certainly one of Fashionable Warfare 3‘s most controversial weapons, with its highly effective one-shot nature drawing enormous criticism from the neighborhood. Now, Sledgehammer has confirmed that it’s getting nerf, however not everyone seems to be happy about it.

Launched in Season 4, the Kar98k has been the topic of intense scrutiny, with loads of gamers begging Sledgehammer to make it much less highly effective. Lastly, we now know that the Kar98k can be tweaked with the Season 4 Reloaded patch, with the developer posting a touch upon Reddit to announce the transfer.

As a substitute of common delight although, a gaggle of gamers is voicing their unhappiness on the resolution, with many claiming that the opposite weapons within the recreation and goal help are the issue, not the sniper rifle.

“Please simply nerf the goal help and make the final harm vary not be a [one hit kill]—It’s nonetheless 50 meters, that’s completely sufficient for a marksman rifle,” wrote DeminoTheDragon, whereas l4derman agreed: “Nerf all controller help not particular person weapons.”

“Why not simply buff the opposite weapons?” requested Obligatory-Journey-683. “This looks like a very poor resolution, individuals will complain a couple of explicit merchandise that the lots use after they repeatedly get killed by stated merchandise. Extra individuals benefit from the Kar98k, the problem is the dearth of different viable weapons in the mean time, we want extra buffs not nerfs all spherical.”

Helpful-Yam4306 concurred, writing: “The explanation the Kar98k is so dominant is that each different gun sucks! Cease getting in the way in which of different individuals’s enjoyable time. You guys took eternally to offer us an excellent sniper, cease screwing it up!”

Whereas these guys make some convincing arguments, I’ve to confess that I’m closely in favor of the nerf, as I’m sick of getting no-scoped by guys operating the Kar98k on small map moshpit. The weapon is just too robust when in comparison with others, and whereas buffing every part can be good, it’s extra cheap to tweak one weapon moderately than 100.

I for one can’t look ahead to Season 4 Reloaded now, which is anticipated to launch on June 26.
