Today Boosting Market brings you the new update for Call of Duty: Warzone just went live this weekend and finally something the playerbase have been asking and that’s the big nerf of the weapon that annoyed us all for weeks. We are talking about the Caldera and it’s annoying attachment. Players have been abusing it to the full extent and can you judge them? The akimbo Double Barrel shotgun was broken and Raven Software knew it so why delay this patch so much? The Akimbo has also received a heavy nerf, with the big decrease to its damage multiplier, but with increases to its damage range multiplier and hip spread.

So what was the problem with the Akimbo Double Barrel (VG)?

According to Raven Software devs “The Akimbo Double Barrel (VG) was able to consistently achieve lethality at extreme ranges,” Raven also add: “While we agree that shotguns should be the most lethal option within close quarters, once that range begins to encroach on submachine gun territory, we must intervene.” With this and to finalize Raven added “with the intent of closing the gap between these two Weapons and their competitors.” This confirms that while the shotgun was great for Warzone boosting it was too much for the general community and thus it must be nerfed and eliminated from the game. Raven added: “In addition, we will be toning down what is often referred to as ‘Visual Recoil’ on Vanguard assault rifles,” Raven said. “We feel this will help promote a healthier, more diverse pool of mid to long-range weapons.”

That’s not all, Raven Software added more to this patch here is the full list of January 7:
