Tips and Tricks For Playing Call of Duty: Warzone

May 29, 2020

Call of Duty: Warzone is a free-to-play battle royale mode released in March 2020 for Modern Warfare. This is the series’ second attempt at such a game mode and they seem to have finally got it right. While it is similar to other battle royale titles, there are plenty of new mechanics in Call of Duty: Warzone. That means players might not be familiar with everything going on in it. Fortunately, this list should give you the advantage you need to survive as long as possible. Here are some helpful tips and tricks for playing Call of Duty: Warzone.

Pick weapons that suit your playing style

Call of Duty: Warzone includes all of the guns and equipment present in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. That means there is a huge amount of choice in terms of weapons for players. Just like in normal online multiplayer, each weapon has its own strengths and weaknesses. Familiarizing yourself with the different guns is important so you can find a loadout that suits you best. That way, you will also know what gun to use in each situation. You also won’t be surprised that a gun is a semi-automatic or burst fire when fighting an opponent. 

Change settings to allow for faster looting

Being able to quickly and efficiently pick up new weapons and equipment is essential in battle royale games. Any time spent looking at the ground could spell disaster, as an enemy could use the distraction to shoot you. Players can make collecting new weapons and items a quicker experience. In the options under the controller tab, you can turn on “Contextual Tap” in the reload settings. This will save valuable time when opening crates in particular. 

Kill enemies before you even hit the ground

Players don’t have to wait until you have hit the ground before you start killing your opponents. Call of Duty: Warzone actually lets you shoot other individuals while in the deployment phase. Cutting the parachute will allow you to shoot your weapon. You can use this to your advantage to kill your opponents while still in the air. This can help to thin out the threats in the area that you are landing in. 

Get down to the ground as quickly as possible

The key to being successful in Call of Duty: Warzone, like any battle royal game, is getting the best equipment. That means that it is better if you do not deploy your parachute until the very last moment. This will provide you with two key advantages. Firstly, players can get the pick of any weapons or equipment at a specific location before anyone else gets there. Of course, it also means that you won’t get shot down by those already on the ground.

When playing with teammates, use the ping feature

Call of Duty: Warzone allows you to play with small teams as well as individually. If you are playing with another group, you should make use of the ping feature. This handy little machine can help you share the locations of enemies, equipment, and allies. You simply have to click the appropriate button depending on your control scheme. Importantly, you can also quickly double-tap the ping button to warn your teammates that an opponent is nearby.

Keep a good supply of armor plates

Armor plates are an essential part of Call of Duty: Warzone. They provide invaluable protection when under enemy fire and ensure that your health doesn’t take an immediate hit. You can equip up to three armor plates at any one time, giving you a shielding effect. However, you can also hold up to five armor plates. You should always stay stocked up, as you can then use them in an emergency or share them with your teammates.

Always try to complete contracts

Cash actually plays a big role in Call of Duty: Warzone, allowing you to buy equipment and revive allies. While you can earn it in a number of different ways, the most efficient is by completing contracts. In order to get your hands on the currency, you should try and complete contracts whenever possible. Keep an eye out for tasks you can complete easily, especially if they involve opening a supply cache. That way you can get extra cash. 

Tweak your sound settings

It might sound strange, but tweaking your sound settings can really give players an edge. Depending on the audio equipment that you are using, you’ll want to select different options. This will provide you with the very best sound while you are playing. The advantage of this is that you will be able to hear opponents more effectively. If you can pinpoint the location of an enemy by hearing them, you might just be able to react that little bit faster.
