For players who have been experiencing issues with the latest weapons added with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s Season 6 update, there is good news.
Infinity Ward has released a new update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Warzone that fixes the issues with the newly released assault rifle, AS-VAL, and nerfs the SP-R 208 sniper.
The reason behind the changes for the AS-VAL was due to a bug with the SSP 10-round magazine that would let bullets penetrate through multiple walls without damage fall-off, which you can see down below:
For the SP-R 208, the change comes after in-game data pointed to the sniper being overpowered.
The new update is now live on Xbox, Playstation and PC. You can find the full list of patch notes down below:
