Warzone Season 3 players are fed up with missing a ton of Akimbo Pistols shots and are calling for Raven Software to remove them from the Gulag.

Warzone Season 3’s Standoff Gulag has been divisive, to say the least. Some players love the new layout that offers more flanking routes and fewer head-glitches to abuse, but others are sick of the “campy” playstyle offered by its two-story design.

Something that the community appears to agree on wholeheartedly is that Dual Pistols in Verdansk ’84’s Gulag are a major problem. The Warzone subreddit has been full of players calling for their removal.

While Warzone features the same RNG features as all battle royale games, the Gulag is meant to be a place where your individual skill in a 1v1 will get you back into the fight. However, it’s down to pure luck whether you land shots in Season 3’s Dual Pistols Gulag, and players are sick of it.

In a sarcastic post, Reddit user EJR4 said “Dual Pistol gulag is the best Gulag, no question.” In this clip, they walked towards an AFK player shooting shot after shot with the crosshair directly on them. Not one shot landed, and the AFK player, probably alerted by the bullets flying at them, returned and immediately killed the player.

EJR4 isn’t alone in having problems with the akimbo pistols, as user DefunctHunk showed off very similar footage, but was much more on the nose with their frustration, saying that “Akimbo pistols in the Gulag are driving me insane.”

The comments sections of both posts were full of players complaining about the new Gulag, but especially the Dual Pistols. One user said, “If I get a Shotgun or a Magnum, I just tell my squad, ok guys, don’t spend your money, you need that 4k soon.”

This isn’t the first time Warzone players have rallied together to demand change in the Gulag, as Season 2’s featured fists. The community pushed back against this frustrating Gulag and fists have (so far) not featured in Season 3, so perhaps Dual Pistols will be gone from Season 4’s Gulag.
