Jeff Leach is an actor whose voice has appeared in several prominent videogames: he’s played Prince Stefan in Battlestar Galactica Deadlock, lent his talents to Total War: Warhammer, and was the voice of Lt. Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Now he’s among the many Call of Duty fans voicing their dissatisfaction over Raven Software’s latest Warzone balance update that was meant to nerf several troublesome weapons introduced with Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War.
“Just tested the DMR,” Leach tweeted Wednesday. “It still 2-3 shots beams people at close-mid range. It’s only 250+ metres that it kicks a bit and does slightly less damage.”
Warzone players are, in a word, frustrated. On the subreddit, commenters have been grumbling that they suspect the overpowered new weapons are a ploy to increase sales for Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War, and the anemic round of nerfs applied to the DMR 14, Mac 10, Type 63, and dual pistols yesterday has done little to quell that sentiment.
