Into its second season of integration withCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, the massively popularCall of Duty: Warzonebattle royale has met with a few hiccups along the way as the game continues to be tweaked. With theBlack Ops Cold Warweapons receiving nerfssince Season 2 started, some players looking to find the right gun are getting frustrated with being unable to test their loadouts quickly and easily.
While there are a number of content creators who produce videos making recommendations on best setups, sometimes fans like to try their own unique builds, and testing takes time. Players likeNICKMERCS might have LC10 SMG loadoutsthat hit hard, but perhaps a player wants to try something that the pros and streamers aren’t talking about. If someone wants to create a setup for the Model 680 shotgun, there are few places to test it, so fans are looking for Raven Software to add a firing range toWarzone.

Picking up momentum online is a request forCall of Duty: Warzoneto add a firing range for players to test weapon builds. Fans insist it doesn’t need to be fancy or elaborate, it can even just be a wall with targets on it, but the need is apparent. Fans point to previousCall of Dutytitles that included a feature like this, includingCOD: Advanced Warfare, andCOD: World War II. A firing range would mean that players don’t have to dive into Plunder to test weapons, representing a simple quality of life change that many in the community would appreciate.
It wouldn’t be unprecedented forCall of Dutydevelopers to respond to fan requests. Treyarch recently tookfan feedback on itsBlack Ops Cold Warmultiplayer mapsand implemented changes to make them more player-friendly. Fans identified areas for improvement, where unfair advantages could be gained, and the response by the developer has been well received. Communication with the player base goes a long way to keeping fans happy and continuing to play.
As games with continuous support become more common, part of that equation is that the support works both ways. It becomes more of an ongoing dialogue between developer and fans, where fan support for a game is contingent on the content being produced by the developer, and if the game isn’t delivering or listening to feedback those fans may jump ship. The rumors thatCall of Duty: Warzoneis heading for a complete map changewill be a real test of that relationship, as fans may have strong opinions about a new map. It might be a stretch to expect a firing range to show up inWarzone,but fans remain hopeful.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
