A Warzone player has come up with a simple little buff idea for the Armor Satchel to make it even more “Legendary” than what it already is in the Call of Duty battle royale.

Warzone Season 6 is really bringing the spirit of Halloween with new spooky operators Ghost Face and Donnie Darko. As well as this, the game will also be getting a new event, the Haunting, which will bring a brand new LTM.

With the recent October 15 update patch, some players have changes on their minds.

Although many may not think it needs a buff, one player has come up with an exciting idea to give the Armour Satchel an added detail that would make it even more “Legendary” than it already is.

Reddit user spancer35 is the player responsible for the idea, as they posted the Armor Satchel buff on the Warzone subreddit.

The post is titled: “Here is a little upgrade to Armor(?) Satchel to make it an actual “Legendary Item.”

As many players will know, the Armor Satchel is of Legendary rarity, giving players three additional armor plates to carry on top of the base five. This small buff idea is intended to give the Armor Sachel another bonus, as the user feels the Armor Satchel could use it.

The buff would essentially make it, so the Armor Satchel gives players extra ammo and plates. The image attached to the post shows exactly how much extra ammo the Armor Satchel will provide players.

Some players in the comments have mixed opinions about this idea, though, as one user stated: “I think this is an unnecessary buff. Satchel is in a pretty fair spot and on the biggest upswing can give your entire team 13 plates (drop 5 armor then pickup satchel).”

In contrast, another comment read: “There should be an Ammo Belt where you can have an increased ammo capacity. Like how the Satchel works for Armour Eg. Mid Cal moving from 210 to 270 or 300.”

Perhaps the developers will think about the possibility of adding something like an Ammo Belt or a bonus to the Armor Satchel in the future.

We’ll have to wait and see what happens, but who knows, perhaps Vanguard’s release and integration will see changes like this.

Apex Legends Season 11 will be bringing a brand new SMG to the game, which Titanfall players are likely to be very familiar with using.

a Great deal of new information has been revealed about Apex Legends Season 11, including the new Legend Ash and hints towards a new map.

As well as all this, although the community wasn’t expecting it, Apex Legends will also be getting a brand new weapon in Season 11, which many players will recognize from the Titanfall series.

Apex Legends Season 11 was announced along with a new Stories from the Outlands trailer by Respawn Entertainment on October 18.

The trailer presented the lore of Ash, giving players an inside into the new Legends.

The developers also released a blog showing off the new content coming to Season 11, titled “Escape.” One of the most intriguing pieces of content is the new weapon.

Apex Legends Season 11 C.A.R. SMG

The new weapon coming to Apex Legends in Season 11 is the C.A.R SMG, which was previously seen in Titanfall.

If you’re a Titanfall fanatic, you’ll already know about the C.A.R SMG, as it was a very popular choice for the game’s multiplayer mode. For those who aren’t familiar with the C.A.R, it’s a fully automatic SMG that features an extremely fast fire rate, as well as pretty smooth recoil.

This isn’t the only weapon from Titanfall that has been reimagined in Apex Legends. To name a few, the R-301, L-Star, and the Flatline were all taken from the Titanfall series. These weapons mostly stay very similar to their original form, with some tweaks and changes.

The recoil for this weapon has likely been reworked as if it is anything like it was in Titanfall. This weapon will absolutely be lethal and easy to use.

The description for the weapon on the Apex Legends Season 11 blog reads: “A flexible weapon, the C.A.R SMG is the gun for when you’re ready to make a stand and become the last Legend still standing.”

This description suggests there will be something unique about the weapon, especially due to the wording used. The weapon’s flexibility could be that it takes multiple ammo types, or perhaps it has an alternate fire mode.

We’ll have to see when the new Season officially launches in early November. Stay up to date with all the information you need on Season 11 through our Apex Legends news and updates.
