A new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Call of Duty: Warzone update has been released on PS4, Xbox One, and PC by Infinity Ward, Raven Software, and Activision. In terms of updates, the August 11 update is a bit on the smaller side, but it does feature a few different fixes and a variety of weapon balance changes. Included are some changes to two over-powered guns run by many players right now: Bruen MK9 and FAL. However, while one got weaker, the other actually has seemingly been improved.
For whatever reason, Infinity Ward has increased the headshot damage for the FAL. Subsidizing this is a reduction in near damage, but it remains to be seen if that will fix the OP gun, especially if it’s dealing out more headshot damage.
