Warzone makes a major change to Smoke, but fans aren't happy

Key foods

  • Call of Duty: Warzone reduced DTIR muzzle smoke for better visibility, but distance still affects visibility.
  • Much to players' frustration, Blackcell's skin reduces smoke and makes it less offensive to players.
  • Fans are hoping that Call of Duty developers will continue to provide player feedback for Warzone like Black Ops 6.



Call of Duty: Warzone It has finally made some changes to the frustrating muzzle smoke, and while close range visibility is now significantly improved, it is still not consistent at different distances from the target. These changes as part of Call of Duty: WarzoneOctober update, but, oddly enough, they are not mentioned in the patch notes.

By changing the focus to Call of Duty: Black Ops 6season 6 update for Call of Duty: Warzone & Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 It wasn't quite packed with a lot of content. While the update added a few new weapons and limited-time game modes, the community expected more from last season. One of the changes that was not particularly noticed in the society was the addition of muzzle smoke inside Call of Duty: WarzoneSeason 6 update, which made it very difficult for players to see opponents. It looks like the developers have finally optimized the muzzle smoke in the game, but there is a catch.


In the new post at war zone subreddit, user pnokmn highlights a change that hasn't been mentioned recently Call of Duty: Warzone October update patch notes. They add that the DTIR crater smoke has been reduced in the stealth update, but not exactly as expected. While the smoke is much less aggressive and the visibility is significantly better when the target is at close range, as players get further away, the smoke once again takes up a significant portion of the field of view.


Call of Duty: Warzone Fans Invite Blackcell Blueprint Pay-To-Win


While dealing with smoke itself is pretty annoying, fans have also expressed their frustration with the Blackcell skin. If players use the Blackcell scheme along with DTIR, the smoke will be significantly reduced. While there is still some smoke when using the Blaxel skin, it is directed more to the side, making it less aggressive for players. This isn't the first time a gun has been called a money-to-win. For example, MAC-10 in Call of Duty: Warzone It has also faced similar charges in the past, but these charges were mostly due to a bug. However, given that the smoke was tweaked, this one looks more intentional, still nowhere near Blackcell's design.


Apart from the distance, many noticed that the smoke reacted strangely to the bullets. In the video, smoke starts to flicker while using certain cameras, another annoying distraction when using the gun. Given that Activision has actively made changes based on player feedback Call of Duty: Black Ops 6many hope developers will do the same Call of Duty: Warzone.
