Summary
Call of Duty: Warzoneplayers are still attempting to get developer Raven Software to fix the misaligned scope on the Kar98k Marksman Rifle, one of the most popular weapons in the game. The Kar98k is a Marksman Rifle from 2023’sCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3that is also usable inCall of Duty: Warzone. Unfortunately, the scope of the weapon has been slightly misaligned since its release, but the studio continues to ignore players' requests to fix it.
After finding huge success upon its release in 2020,Call of Duty: Warzonehas evolved massively over the years. With each new mainlineCall of Duty,Warzonereceives a fresh start with plenty of new features. The launch ofCall of Duty: Black Ops 6Season 1 in 2024, for example, saw the two titles become fully integrated, bringing weapons and features from Treyarch’s shooter into the free-to-play Battle Royale. While most players are currently usingweapons fromBlack Ops 6, there are still plenty of weapons from 2023’sModern Warfare 3that remain viable options withinWarzone. Unfortunately, one of the game’s most popular Marksman Rifles is still broken almost two years later.
Warzone’s Kar98k Still Has a Misaligned Scope
There’s no denying that theKar98k is one ofWarzone's most iconic weapons. It’s a fast-handling Marksman Rifle that can take out enemies with ease, but there is a catch. Ever since the weapon’s release withCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 3in 2023, the Kar98k’s scope has been misaligned. Players have taken to social media multiple times in the past to bring it to Raven Software’s attention, but the studio has yet to deploy an official fix. Almost two years later, fans are still taking to the officialCall of Duty: Warzonesubreddit to shine a light on the issue. Reddit user Weekly-Canary-9549 recently posted a short video showcasing the scope’s misalignment, as it appears to shoot ever so slightly to the right instead of in the center.
This isn’t the first postbringing attention to the issue.Another Reddit userrecently noted that it doesn’t matter which scope is used;all of them are misaligned on the Kar98k. Unfortunately, with so manyweapons now available to use inWarzone, it looks like this popular Marksman Rifle will likely remain broken. While Raven Software constantly updates the shooter with weapon adjustments, there tends to be much more of a focus on weapons from the most recentCall of Dutytitle, which, in this case, isBlack Ops 6. Weapons from previous entries, such asModern Warfare 2and3, often receive very little attention.
Last month,WarzoneandBlack Ops 6received the highly anticipated Season 3 update. The new season not only saw the triumphant return of Verdansk inCall of Duty: Warzonebut also brought back some iconicModern Warfareweapons, including the CR-56 AMAX and HDR Sniper Rifle. Unfortunately, after dominating the shooter for almost a month, a recentWarzoneupdate nerfed the two weapons, once again adjusting the meta.
