Season 5 for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone is approaching its midpoint. While the titular season’s launch brought a wealth of additional content into the game, along with a steady stream of weekly updates, an even bigger update is on the horizon with the arrival of Season 5 Reloa

The JAK Voltstorm is a lethal weapon in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone , capable of eliminating unarmored opponents with just a single shot . It's also entirely possible to eliminate multiple players in one shot, provided they are grouped closely together. Much like the regular variant of the Stormender, players will need to charge up the JAK Voltstorm by holding the Fire button , releasing it to fire off a high-powered shot. The JAK Voltstorm is only effective up close, and its damage range doesn't extend into the medium range. Because of this, the weapon is pretty much useless in Warzone , and players are better off using a solid Shotg

Season 5 of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone introduced a variety of additional content, including neat additions to the meta like the STG44 and the return of fan-favorite locations such as Superstore. However, not all content is tied directly to the season's launch, as Week 4 brings the arrival of an additional Aftermarket P

The highlight of this balance pass is a reduction to the lethality of the FR 5.56 and DG-58. Both Weapons will now require two headshots to kill an enemy with a single 3-round burst fire. Additionally, these changes aim to improve the consistency and viability of Submachine Guns to the intended target for the cl

Modern Warfare 3 's newest update allows previously banned weapons like the BP50, Holger 556, HRM-9, and others to be equipped in Ranked Play until April 23. Feedback and data will determine whether the weapons remain unbanned. As for balance changes, both MW3 and Warzone saw the same adjustments to six weapons. Slight buffs were applied to the MTZ-556, Holger 556, Striker, and MW2 's M16. A slight nerf was applied to the RAM-9 and a more significant nerf was applied to the WSP Swarm, which had its flinch resistance decreased by 81%. Also, the Haymaker's JAK Maglift Kit was nerfed in MW3 only and a common bug causing the MORS sniper rifle's optics to become misaligned was fi

Treyarch, the studio behind MW3 's Ranked mode, announced earlier this week that Ranked Play would soon begin a test phase to see if additional weapons could be viable in the meta. Before, Ranked Play users almost exclusively equipped weapons like the MCW, Rival-9, and WSP Swarm due to other options being banned Ready Or Not Stolen Valor simply not good enough. While a limited selection of weapons isn't anything new to the competitive Call of Duty scene, it seems that Treyarch is trying to improve on this asp

The JAK Voltstorm is an Aftermarket Part available for the Stormender , one of Modern Warfare 3's small roster of Launchers. While the Stormender is only really useful for taking down Killstreaks, the JAK Voltstorm turns the weapon into a lethal tool for disposing of Operators at close range. While the weapon itself cannot be customized, meaning that players will be unable to create a meta loadout for it, it can still be a fun gimmicky weapon to use inside of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzo

Player feedback will likely be incorporated for future weapon buffs and nerfs as Sledgehammer Games continues to work on new multiplayer and Zombies content for Modern Warfare 3 Season 1 . Assault rifles still appear to be the most viable weapon category for newcomers in Modern Warfare 3 , but the buffs to SMGs could make them another solid option for those wanting to run-and-gun their opponents in Mosh Pit and other popular playli

Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone's The Haunting Season 6 have cranked up the spooky factor of both games, seeing the debut of the long-awaited Zombie Royale game mode for Battle Royale, along with a plethora of scarily good content inside the Battle Pass. Though players may still be grinding to unlock everything the Battle Pass has to offer, such as the now meta DTIR 30-06 Battle Rifle , Week 4 of Modern Warfare 3 sees the arrival of yet another Aftermarket Part to unl

Additionally, Speed Cola and Elemental Pop synergize fantastically, as the moment an ammo mod triggers and shocks, slows, or explodes the advancing zombies, players will have a brief moment to refill their magazine and ensure they do not get caught with an empty

Sledgehammer Games also applied several bug fixes to weapon challenges and camos, including a lighting adjustment to Modern Warfare 2's coveted Ghoulie camo . An exploit involving locked weapon camos was fixed as well, so players who previously used this exploit must continue leveling up their favorite weapons to unlock those camos as inten

The JAK Voltstorm is a weekly reward that players can unlock by completing any five of the Week 4 Challenges for Season 6 of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone . These challenges are available in Multiplayer, Zombies, and Battle Royale, making the JAK Voltstorm relatively accessible regardless of what modes players dive into. Aside from unlocking the JAK Voltstorm, each weekly challenge also provides an XP reward, along with bringing players a step closer to unlocking the Drawn And Quartered Ca
