ThoughCall of Dutyplayers love taking Kar98K on the battlefield for its accuracy and power, some were complaining about the weapon being overpowered in the game. Sledgehammer Games, the creator of the revampedModern Warfareseries, has heard the feedback of those fans, and now it’ll be making some adjustments to it.

Several other snipers do have a better damage rate than the German bolt-action rifle, but still, players prefer to go for the Kar98K for its agility. Quick scoping is easy while using the gun, in contrast to many. It seems like they need to adjust their hands for other weapons after Sledgehammer incorporates the update.

In a reply to one post on social network Reddit, the developer confirmed that they have heard the feedback from the community.
Players are likely to see the changes inModern Warfare 3Season 4 Reloaded. Previously, someCall of Dutyfans suspected there was something wrong with the weapon. Some in-game weapons that are supposed to be better than Kar98K are being outshined by the marksman rifle.

Fans should be excited to see the changes that will give more weapons a chance to dominate the battlefield. However, a user dubbed Kalei believes that the game will become boring after the update.
game is gonna be boring again lmao cant wait to spray someone down with a 100 round lmg with no recoil 300 meters away like thats any better

Another user called Stellar says that developers need to buff assault rifles instead of adjusting the marksman rifle.
Just buff ARs. No reason to touch it when ARs are literally useless

Season 4 Reloaded is likely to arrive in a couple of weeks, so Kar98K lovers should experience a difference in the gameplay.
Kar98K May Not Remain as Deadly as It Is Now

While the exact details on how the nerf is going to affect the weapon are thin on the ground, it is highly likely the damage will be reduced to some extent. It is kind of a deadly weaponry for medium to long range in the game. We may see the changes carry over toWarzone,but there’s nothing official on it.
When it comes to speed and damage, Kar98K remains the top choice for many. However, even the most skilled players have difficulty while quick scoping against their rivals.
