The Modern Warfare 3<\/em> and Warzone <\/em>developers have today shipped a new update that responds to rumors of RICOCHET Anti-cheat being offline, updates restrictions regarding Ranked Play Resurgence, and balanced several weapons.<\/p>
On Feb. 14, Treyarch unveiled a plan to eliminate the “taps” issue<\/a> in Resurgence Ranked Play, which refers to Call of Duty<\/em> players having their teammate finish off downed enemies to earn Skill Rating for assists. The controversial strategy caught flack as it unfairly awarded SR to players.<\/p>
Two days later, Raven Software also sprung into action and nerfed the TAQ Evolvere<\/a>, as the LMG briefly took over the battle royale’s short and long-range meta. Those weapon balancing changes only scratched the surface, with today’s Feb. 21 update now making further tweaks and officially rolling out a permanent fix addressing “taps.”<\/p>
