Warzone fans take to Reddit and show how divided opinions are on current sniper meta

sportskeeda.com:

Call of Duty Warzone has been a favorite among many in the player base, and with such a vast count, the difference in opinion in the community is quite evident.

Sniping has always been a highly debated topic in Call of Duty Warzone. Many in the user base prefer the long-range style of gameplay. Without a doubt, a sniper rifle is their weapon of choice.

However, the current meta in Warzone is quite punishing towards these sniper players as their favorite guns have been on the receiving end of multiple nerfs in the last few seasons.

Despite the recent buff to finch in marksman rifles that came as a part of the Season 4 update, the gamer base feels that the current stats of most sniper rifles in the game is underwhelming.

Sniping has been the core playstyle for a considerable number of players in Call of Duty Warzone. There is a different satisfaction to landing accurate headshots across the map.

However, it is also very frustrating when users see their enemies duck behind cover rather than getting downed after taking such a fatal hit.

As such, these gamers are not content with the current situation regarding long-distance rifles in the game.

Reddit user u/ibabyXD has made a detailed post regarding the current situation of long-range sniping in the title. They feel that rather than nerfing the few over-powered snipers in the game, the developers have nerfed the entire genre altogether.

The Redditor feels that rather than blanket damage nerfs on all the snipers, the developers could have increased the Aim-Down-Sight (ADS) time for snipers to prevent the broken quick scope meta.

The current meta is forcing players to choose among a minimal pool of 5 to 6 sniper rifles that can one-shot-kill their enemies when a headshot is landed.
