Warzone 2 players suggest easy fix for “ridiculous” Self Revive problem in Season 2

Self Revive in Warzone 2

Warzone 2’s Self Revives are meant to help you stay in the fight longer but players find it annoying when their enemies use these to cheat death and are calling for a fix in Season 2.

You’ll face intense competition from enemy players after hopping into Warzone 2, and Self Revives are extremely useful tools that you can use to stay alive after finding cover from gunfire.

Players can keep multiple Self Revives in their backpacks and keep reviving themselves repeatedly. This has been criticized as it makes Self Revives overpowered, and now players want a simple change in Warzone 2 Season 2.

Reddit user ‘MortyCloneyt’ shared a clip of their gameplay in the Warzone 2 subreddit, and it shows them eliminating an enemy before looting them for multiple Self-Revives. Another enemy then shot the player down.

The Redditor then began using multiple Self Revives one after another to stay alive while taking damage outside the circle. This highlighted how easy this item makes it to escape death, and the player wrote: “This is why I see a lot of people hating on Self Revives.”

This isn’t the first time that players have accused the item of being overpowered, as the Warzone 2 developers tried addressing this with a Self Revive nerf in the Season 1 Reloaded update patch.

Despite this, Self Revives continue to be a point of controversy in the game, and many of the commenters expressed their hopes that the developers will nerf them. One user wrote: “I hope Season 2 addresses this.” Another player added: “Yeah, no one should be able to do this.”

A few players in the thread called for the developers to reduce the amount of Self Revives you can carry in a single match. One of the commenters suggested: “Such an easy fix too. Just limit the number of Self Revives you can pick up to 1.”

Another suggestion was that rather than limiting the number of Self Revives that you can keep in your backpack, the developers should make it so that you’re unable to get consecutive uses from them.

According to one player: “Cooldown for consecutive uses could work, maybe a minute or two. That way carrying multiple still has uses, like keeping for a friend.” Users agreed that adding a cooldown would be a clever solution.

It remains to be seen if the devs will make any major changes to Self Revives in Warzone 2 Season 2. If they address any of these criticisms by implementing changes in the update then we’ll be sure to let you know.
