Warzone players are sharing their initial impressions of Season 4’s new map Fortune’s Keep, and the verdict isn’t very positive so far.
Warzone Pacific Season 4 has brought a brand-new map to the battle royale known as Fortune’s Keep. Despite the excitement over the new content, players aren’t happy with Warzone’s new map.
Warzone Pacific Season 4 is finally here, bringing loads of new content for players like the UGM-8 LMG and Marco SMG.
As well as this, the devs have dropped a new Rebirth Island-sized map called Fortune’s Keep, along with the Mercenaries of Fortune Event to celebrate. With that being said, players don’t seem too happy with the map, with many complaints about the design favoring campers.
Fortune’s Keep is a brand new map for players to explore, and although it will take some time for players to fully understand the map, the initial thoughts from players are in.
While Raven Software advertised that Fortune’s Keep would encourage intense and fast gameplay similar to that of Rebirth Island, it seems players have been experiencing the opposite, causing frustration.
In the comments of our Twitter post asking players their thoughts on Fortune’s Keep, the main complaint is that it promotes camping and feels more like Caldera than Rebirth Island.

One comment says that Fortune’s Keep “doesn’t seem to reward moving or exploring, at all. SO MANY CAMPERS – it’s not fun.” Other players agree with this opinion too, with another comment stating that the map is “ratty” and “slow paced just like Caldera.”
Another player states that there are “people camping every roof, every tower, every corner, in the basements, behind the rocks…. They made this map TOO complex, giving people a million different camping spots and vantage points.”
It seems the current opinion of many is that Fortune’s Keep “does not compete with Rebirth Island in any way, shape or form.” Luckily, Fortune’s Keep isn’t replacing Rebirth Island and the Alcatraz-inspired map will be back soon.

Here are the best attachments, Perks, and equipment for the Cooper Carbine Assault Rifle in Warzone Pacific Season 4.
Warzone Pacific’s Cooper Carbine is an extremely effective Assault Rifle, so here are the attachments, Perks, and equipment that make up the best loadout for Season 4.
Warzone Pacific features a wide variety of powerful Assault Rifles to choose from, and while the Cooper Carbine is an ideal option for medium-range engagements of its impressive fire rate.
This weapon is incredibly forgiving and continues to remain a viable choice in Warzone Pacific Season 4. You can make it even better by equipping the right attachments, Perks, and equipment.
Here’s the best Cooper Carbine loadout in Warzone Pacific Season 4.
We’ll start off this Warzone loadout by equipping the MX Silencer muzzle and 22″ Cooper Custom barrel to boost the damage range and recoil control of the weapon. The muzzle’s sound suppression also comes in handy when you need to take keep your shots hidden.
Next, we’ll focus on buffing the Cooper Carbine’s accuracy and aiming stability with the help of the m1941 Hand Stop, Cooper 45RS, and Polymer Grip. This will ensure that you’re able to hit distant targets accurately.
The 9mm 60 Round Drums ensure that you have plenty of ammo and also provide boosts to your fire rate and ADS speed. We picked the Lengthened ammo to boost the bullet velocity, ensuring that your rounds shred through enemies extremely fast.
Finally, for our choice of perks, we equipped Tight Grip to boost the gun’s accuracy when continuously firing, and Fully Loaded ensures that you start off with the maximum amount of ammo.
For your first Perk, we recommend equipping the E.O.D as it will protect you from Grenades and Thermites thrown by enemies. Using Overkill will let you pair the Cooper Carbine with a close-range weapon like the MP40 or Welgun.
Finally, Amped will help you swap between the two weapons quickly. The Semtex Lethal Equipment lets you deal explosive damage to opponents, and the Stim grants you a health boost.
To unlock the Cooper Carbine in Vanguard and Warzone Pacific, you need to complete a challenge that requires you to get five headshots with an Assault Rifle in 15 different completed matches.
This may take some time, but you can rack up more headshots by improving your aim and then jumping into multiplayer. Once you’ve completed the challenge, the weapon will be added to your inventory.
If you’re looking for a great alternative to this Cooper Carbine loadout, then we recommend trying out the NZ-41 which has recently replaced the STG44 as the best gun in Warzone Pacific.
The Armaguerra 43 is another great choice after the Season 4 buffs it received to its maximum damage and effective damage range.

Warzone Pacific Season 4’s update has brought a game-breaking attachment combo that you can use to sprint insanely fast.
A few specific Vanguard attachments have now become broken after the Warzone Pacific Season 4 update, and you can now equip them to get insane sprint and movement speed.
The Warzone Season 4 update brought plenty of changes that may have a major impact on the popular Call of Duty title’s meta, including new guns like the Marco 5 as well as weapon buffs and nerfs.
A few Vanguard weapons have become significantly faster after the arrival of this update, and one game-breaking attachment combo is granting players extremely fast sprint speed.
Warzone expert JGOD showcased this in a video where he explained how equipping the Taped Grip and Mark VI Skeletal on any Vanguard SMG and several different rifles will allow you to max out your movement and sprint speeds.
He stated that using these attachments will allow you to zoom across your opponents’ screens. In his weapon loadout, he also equipped the Perfetto Lesto 35mm barrel, Imerito FR stock 8mm Kurz 36 Round Mags, Momentum, and Quick for additional movement boosts.
JGOD used a MAC-10 movement build and the person next to him used a movement build for a Vanguard weapon. Even though the Warzone expert got a headstart, the other player was able to catch up to him extremely fast.
After this, JGOD and the other player swapped weapon builds, and the Warzone expert was able to pass him by almost instantly. This showed that using that weapon combo greatly boosts your sprint speed.
When showing the difference between the movement builds for the MAC-10 and Marco 5, it was evident that the forward movement speed for the Vanguard weapon was almost as much as the sprinting speed of the MAC-10.
JGOD described these attachments as “bugged” and singled out the Taped Grip as being “inherently broken.” It’s likely that the developers will nerf this build soon, so you only have a limited time to try it out.

Warzone’s Season 4 update introduced a change to the Loadout UI which players are extremely frustrated with, prompting a dev to respond.
Warzone players took immediate issue with Season 4’s Loadout Drop drop change, but Senior Creative Director Ted Timmins has assured players that they’ll soon get used to it.
Warzone Pacific Season 4 has given players a fresh update, mixing up the meta with buffs and nerfs, as well as introducing the Marco 5 SMG and UMG-8 LMG.
Ahead of Warzone Season 4, the Loadout Drop selection would always hover over the previously selected choice. So, players could pick their ideal loadout in the pre-game lobby and immediately select it in-game.
However, Raven explained they found that players would accidentally select the wrong loadout too often, so the Season 4 update made it so that the curser will always start at the top of the list. Players were immediately against the change, but senior Warzone dev Ted Timmins has responded to the backlash.
Whenever the devs have made any sort of change to Loadouts, players don’t tend to react very well. This happened again in Season 4, where players believe the change has caused more issues than it’s solved.
The discussion kicked off when Reddit user ‘commandersummer’ asked the Warzone subreddit: “Am I the only one who thinks this is an incredibly bad change?
They clearly weren’t the only one, with users flooding to the post to complain that their muscle memory is completely off, and they’ve been selecting the wrong loadout much more often than they did ahead of Season 4.
While Raven feels this change will “better respect Player muscle memory in the heat of the moment,” players explained that they’ve “picked the wrong loadout almost every game since the change.”
Raven’s Senior Creative Director Ted Timmins has heard these complaints and took to Twitter to reassure players that they’ll soon get used to it.
I promise that this change is just like the removal of the confirmation UI pop up from the buy station. Remember how everyone jumped at buy stations for a week but then it was better? This will be the same, just needs the muscle memory to shift. https://t.co/JHt0AtzJCt
“I promise that this change is just like the removal of the confirmation UI pop up from the buy station,” he explained. “Remember how everyone jumped at buy stations for a week but then it was better? This will be the same, just needs the muscle memory to shift.”
Players might need to rearrange their loadouts in a specific order because of the change, but Timmins is confident that it won’t be an issue once they’ve got used to it.
We’ll have to wait and see if the discontent continues and if Raven Software decided to revert the tweak. For now, check out the major issue players have found with Caldera’s Storage Town.
