Raven Software program has dropped a nerf to cut back the effectiveness of C4 explosives, and whereas some Warzone gamers are delighted, a vocal group will not be happy with the choice.

In a tweet late on June 18, Raven confirmed they’d “shipped a minor replace that features adjustments to C4.” The patch diminished the explosive’s throw velocity by 15%, introduced its radius down from eight to seven meters, and toned down outer radius injury from 155 to 138.

C4 has all the time been helpful, and at instances has been dominant within the meta. Most frequently, they’re used to get rid of downed opponents, as you possibly can merely throw one within the common route of an injured enemy, press your set off, and blow them again to the foyer.

Not too long ago although, they’ve been used extra typically as an offensive weapon in opposition to opponents who will not be downed, and gamers have been complaining about their vary and the injury output, so it’s no shock that most of the feedback in response have been in favor.

Nevertheless, there have been dissenting voices too, with some calling it “lame,” whereas others suggesting they need to have been specializing in different issues, just like the upcoming nerf for the Kar98k or points with anti-cheat or the sport’s occasion system.

For some, the nerfs merely don’t go far sufficient, with a participant named Tom responding: “That’s barely a change in any respect, nonetheless going to be overpowered.”

Nonetheless, it’s an enchancment on days passed by, when the C4 was so highly effective that you simply couldn’t spot an opponent with out seeing a C4 flying by means of the air towards you. This nerf isn’t going to make them unusable, however ought to make them somewhat extra balanced. In case you can throw one and get it at your enemy’s toes, you’ll nonetheless have the ability to blow them to smithereens, so I wouldn’t counsel ditching them out of your loadouts simply but.
