If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again – that’s what Infinity Ward is doing with Call of Duty: Warzone’s notorious Bruen LMG, which has once again been slapped with a nerf just two weeks after the last one.
Earlier in August, Infinity Ward nerfed the Bruen MK9, which was considered the most powerful gun in the battle royale. This LMG had the accuracy at range, mobility and reload time of an assault rifle – with the right attachments – and had become central to Call of Duty’s meta.
Infinity Ward initially reduced the Bruen’s maximum damage range from 42m to 27m. That was seen as a significant nerf at the time, but in-game, the Bruen felt as effective as ever.
