The developer has had to do plenty of tinkering to the balance of Season 2 so far. At the beginning of the season,Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2banned two new weapons from Ranked Play, however, it’s taken a lot longer to make a change to the KV Broadside and Dragon’s Breath.
At the moment, the KV Broadside combined with the Dragon’s Breath rounds is part of the meta ofCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, with the two used in tandem utterly melting everything in its path. With the update due to arrivein just a few days, players don’t have long until they find out the degree of the rebalancing. Weapon rebalances in multiplayer games can be a nervous time for hardcore players of the game, as it can completely change the way every game of matchmaking is played.
