Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2received a new patch just hours ago. The patch isn't heavy on the content but it's focused on bug fixes and balancing changes. Two assault rifles have been nerfed, and the competitive ruleset for Private Matches has been updated.
ISO Hemlock damage to armor using all 5.56 ammunition is reduced, but only in Warzone mode. Cronel Squall received nerfs as well, as both its damage range and headshot multiplier are reduced. Recoil in semi-auto mode is slightly increased, and the rate of fire in the same mode is also somewhat reduced. Additional details are mentioned below.
