The latest Season 5 update for Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare 3 has introduced the Quartermaster Suppressor, an attachment that has quickly been identified as overpowered. This new muzzle significantly enhances both horizontal and vertical recoil control, with only a minor reduction in ADS (aim down sight) speed. Interestingly, this powerful attachment was added without any mention in the official patch notes, catching players by surprise.
Season 5 Update Brings Major Changes
The Season 5 update has introduced a variety of new content, including new weapons and aftermarket parts like the JAK Widemouth for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. While new weapons typically garner the most attention, the Quartermaster Suppressor has proven to be the real game-changer in this update.
Community Reaction and Testing
A post on the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 subreddit by user TAZfromTilray highlights just how powerful the new attachment is. Using the Static-HV Submachine Gun, a weapon newly added in Season 5, TAZfromTilray demonstrated a drastic improvement in accuracy when using the Quartermaster Suppressor. Without the suppressor, they achieved about 35% accuracy at the firing range. However, with the Quartermaster Suppressor equipped, accuracy soared to an impressive 70%. This significant boost has not gone unnoticed, with several other players on the subreddit echoing similar experiences.
Uncertainty Surrounding the Quartermaster Suppressor
The future of the Quartermaster Suppressor in Call of Duty: Warzone is currently uncertain. The fact that it wasn’t mentioned in the Season 5 patch notes has led some players to speculate that its release might have been accidental. Moreover, its availability in the ranked mode of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, where suppressors are generally prohibited, adds to the confusion.
Potential Changes on the Horizon
Regardless of whether the release was intentional, two likely outcomes are anticipated. First, the Quartermaster Suppressor is expected to be removed from ranked mode due to community backlash over its unbalanced impact on competitive play. Second, a nerf is anticipated to balance its powerful effects on the game’s meta. Comparisons are already being drawn to other popular attachments like the ZEHMN 35 Compensated Flash Hider and the VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor, with the Quartermaster Suppressor currently having a clear advantage.
Final Thoughts
The introduction of the Quartermaster Suppressor in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 5 has significantly impacted gameplay, offering substantial improvements in recoil control. While its future in the game remains uncertain, players are keenly watching for official updates and potential adjustments. Whether through removal from ranked play or a nerf to its capabilities, the Quartermaster Suppressor’s dominance in the current meta may be short-lived. For now, players can enjoy experimenting with this powerful new attachment and the strategic advantages it brings.
