Warzone 2: Light Helo Removed From Game

Shortly after the Warzone 2 Season 2 Reloaded update went live, another small patch removed the Light Helo from the game. Here is all the info.

The Warzone 2 Season 2 Reloaded Update just went live and introduced a bunch of cool new content. Not only did we get a new weapon, but also some awesome quality-of-life changes like the inverted flash or the removed Bomb Drones. However, it seems like a few changes accidentally didn't go live with the big mid-season update. Raven Software announced another small update that fixed one of those mistakes.

Light Helos Removed From Warzone 2 Solos

The Light Helos – the small helicopters in Warzone 2 – have been removed from the Battle Royale Solos Playlist. The developers argue that the small choppers were too overpowered for Solos, and they want to make it a more fair and balanced experience:

The Light Helo has been disabled in Solos. We are protective of the Solos squad size being a fair and balanced experience, and the Light Helo went against that ethos.

While the Light Helo is a nice vehicle for bigger squad sizes, that allows for some awesome plays, in Solos it was just too strong. Whoever managed to get a Helo early in the game was basically untouchable for the rest of the match, so the decision to disable it in Battle Royale Solos is more than welcome.

Don't worry, the Light Helo will still be available in Duos, Trios and Quads.

What are your thoughts on the disabled Light Helo in Battle Royale Solos? Do you like it and think it will make Solos more balanced, or were you one of those lame chopper campers?

Have you heard of CoD 2023 yet?
