In a battle royale like Call of Duty: Warzone, every means is right, every nasty trick is allowed to gain an advantage over your opponents. A trick with the parachute is so stupid that it’s almost ingenious. Nearly.
We at MeinMMO have already written many articles about crazy tricks in Call of Duty: Warzone. Sometimes more, sometimes less helpful.
While the final parachute trick is more hardcore gamer material, the latest parachute gimmick fits into the flops, bad luck and glitches category. But like the old-school TV show, the breakup at the end makes for the “oha” moment.
Warzone “Trick”: No Parachute = No Sounds
If you parachute somewhere in Warzone, you always have a problem: it makes a hell of a noise.
It doesn’t matter whether the enemy is a meter away, in the basement of the house you are landing on or in the bathroom: First there is the announcement that an enemy is landing nearby and then you hear the use of the parachute.
So a clever player on reddit thought: There has to be another way! And caused a lot of joy with his clip and also demonstrated that not everything has to go smoothly for a clean kill:
User Sycamonia plays on Caldera and is with his team at Peek, on top of the island’s volcano. To nab a sniper terrorizing the area, Sycamonia uses one of the Redeploy Balloons.
The thing fires players high in the air, allowing for repositioning. Great for surprising an enemy in an elevated position…or gifting the enemy with a free kill.
In the case of Sycamonia, however, everything went smoothly. At least the result was correct. Because in order not to be discovered, Sycamonia did not open the parachute and landed next to the sniper with a belly flop.
The enemy didn’t spot the landing and a revive later Sycamonia managed to bag a delicious kill rather than the lousy Peek-Sniper. Stealth kill with a difference.
The thread for the clip was able to collect over 2,000 upvotes on Reddit, making it one of the biggest topics of the last week in the somewhat dormant Warzone subreddit.
Thread creator Sycamonia also speaks up and indicates that the action was not intended at all. The user speaks of a bug and that it has often happened up there that the parachute has not opened.
In this case, however, it was a good thing and possibly something that you can copy.
Otherwise, the mood in the thread is exuberant and many users laugh at the peek sniper who cashed up there. They make fun of it and speculate what was going on with the sniper that didn’t get the “landing” of Sycamonia:
Ok, we admit, it takes quite a bit to make the trick work. The opponent should not necessarily play with headphones and a console field of view also helps. But then the trick will get you easy kills!
But it’s also nice to see that people are still having fun in the Warzone.
