What's shaping the meta

  • 01

    No hipfire bloom: hipfire shots go exactly where the gun points, and weapon motion now affects where bullets land.

  • 02

    Launch balance pass: SMGs got stronger at close-to-mid range; one-shot weapons had flinch and damage tuned.

  • 03

    Apex Attachments are the reward for maxing a weapon and don't take up an attachment slot.

  • 04

    Create-a-Class unlocks at Player Level 4 — use Default Loadouts until then.

  • 05

    Weapon XP and camo progress are shared between Multiplayer and DMZ; Warzone joins in Season 1.

  • 06

    Perks use a pick-three system (one from each slot) and scorestreaks are tied to your class.

  • 07

    11 of the 33 launch guns weren't in the beta, so expect the meta to move in the first weeks.
