As Call of Duty Vanguard Season 2 draws closer, Sledgehammer Games continues to roll out updates to fix everything that’s wrong, and there’s work to do! This February 3, the studio is tackling the Welgun.
As we already know, the launch of Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific Season 2 and Call of Duty Vanguard has been postponed due to all the issues that both titles are facing. Thereby, Sledgehammer Games’ FPS has already benefited from several updates since this start of the 2022 academic year, and this beginning of February sounds the nerve of the Welgun.
This small submachine gun appeared during Vanguard Season 1, and was quickly adopted by players. With a fast pace and a very correct original stability, it quickly proved to be overpowered. Thereby, the devs decided to nerf her by fixing two of those accessories that made her way too strong.
On the other hand, they also attacked panzerfaust camo challenges which were far too difficult to take on to get the Atomic.
