Shotgun Temporarily Deactivated in 'Call of Duty: Warzone'

Call of Duty: Warzone's Reclaimer 18 Shotgun Temporarily Removed

The popular Reclaimer 18 shotgun has been temporarily disabled in Call of Duty: Warzone. The unexpected removal, announced via official channels, lacks specific details regarding the cause. This has led to player speculation, with many pointing towards a potentially game-breaking glitch associated with a specific blueprint.

Warzone boasts an extensive weapon arsenal, constantly expanding with additions from newer Call of Duty titles. This vast selection presents ongoing challenges for developers in maintaining balance and addressing technical issues that can arise from integrating weapons designed for different game engines. The Reclaimer 18, a semi-automatic shotgun from Modern Warfare 3, appears to be the latest victim of these complexities.

The community's reaction is divided. Some players applaud the developers' swift action in temporarily disabling a potentially overpowered weapon, particularly highlighting concerns about the JAK Devastators aftermarket parts which enable dual-wielding of the Reclaimer 18. This configuration, while nostalgic for some, proved frustrating for many due to its overwhelming power.

Conversely, others express dissatisfaction, arguing the removal is overdue. The problematic blueprint, "Inside Voices," is exclusive to a paid Tracer Pack, raising concerns about unintentional "pay-to-win" mechanics and insufficient pre-release testing.

The Reclaimer 18 remains unavailable until further notice, leaving players anticipating clarification from the developers and a resolution to the underlying issues.
