Warzone Nerfs RPK and Cronen Squall, AGAIN

Call of Duty is continuing to change the Warzone meta by making additional changes to two fan-favorite weapons: the RPK and Cronen Squall.

Both of these weapons have been nerfed in the latest update, even after receiving damage decreases last week. Here are all the changes for this week’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone update.

Global Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue preventing the 9mm Daemon Akimbo attachment from being unlocked. This fix will address the issue for players who have not yet met the unlock requirement. We are still in the progress on fixing Players who should have earned Akimbo but didn’t unlock it
• Fixed an issue where the amount of Operators shown is inconsistent between Users and Platforms 
• Fixed an issue that required the Player to right click the Play Again button for it to function correctly on PC
• Fixed an issue where the Operator Graves Skin “Shadow 0-1” and “Shadow 0-1 BlackCell” appear identical
• Fixed an issue allowing the 9mm Daemon to be unlocked with all headshots, rather than just headshots from pistols
