The best Call of Duty: Warzone BP50 loadout

By

The highlight of Call of Duty: Warzone Season 5 Reloaded is the addition of the BP50 assault rifle, which is available to unlock now. To unlock it, you need to earn 15 eliminations while aiming down sights and using an ACOG Optic (we recommend the G16 2.5x, the Axial Arms 3x, and the VLK 3.0x). As always, knowing which attachments to equip can be daunting, especially since there are 70 different options to choose from.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to build the new BP50 and use it in Warzone.

BP50 overview

Before diving into the loadout itself, let’s take a look at a general overview of the BP50. Sadly, this weapon isn’t anything special, though judging by Warzone’s history, it’s possible the BP50 will get a buff in the future. It doesn’t do particularly well at long-range since its fire rate is so fast, making it easy to blow through ammo quickly. But oddly enough, it doesn’t compete up-close either, despite having a fast fire rate. Because of this, building the weapon effectively is tricky, as it doesn’t perform well in the categories that matter most. Thankfully, the BP50 is relatively easy to use, with low recoil overall. It’s best used at midrange, serving as a decent sniper support weapon. If nothing else, the BP50 offers a heavy dose of nostalgia, as it’s essentially the F2000 assault rifle from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009).

But how should you build the BP50?

The best BP50 loadout

Recommended loadout:

Muzzle Recoil Booster
Barrel
Maes 538mm Kort
Laser Desmet A-D Flashlight
Optic Slate Reflector
Stock Removed Stock
Magazine 7.625x54mmR 50 Round Mags
Ammunition Lengthened
Rear grip Grooved Grip
Perk Tight Grip
Perk 2 On-Hand

Since this build is meant to work best at mid- to close-range, we suggest using the Recoil Booster Muzzle, offering a faster fire rate. This will allow you to compete within 25 meters or so, especially if you face off against players using weapons with a faster time to kill (TTK). After that, go with the Maes 538mm Kort Barrel for better aim down sights (ADS) speed, aim walking movement speed, and sprint-to-fire speed. This will keep you light on your feet.

Oddly enough, this Vanguard weapon has a Laser option, which is unusual. We recommend the Desmet A-D Flashlight Laser for better recoil control and recoil recovery, helping you secure those midrange eliminations much easier. Next, the Slate Reflector Optic is a great choice, as it offers a clean sight without penalizing ADS speeds. You won’t need high zoom since you’ll only be challenging enemies at midrange.

After that, pick the Removed Stock, offering improved movement speed, sprint-to-fire speed, aim walking movement speed, and faster ADS times, allowing you to compete at close- to mid-range. For this build, we recommend using the 7.625x54mmR 50 Round Mags for better bullet velocity and increased torso damage, making it easier to secure those midrange eliminations. Likewise, we always advise using Lengthened Ammunition for even better bullet velocity.

In terms of Grip options, it’s best to use the Grooved Grip. This is a great choice because it improves your aim walking movement speed and offers better horizontal recoil control, improved ADS firing move speed, and overall aiming stability. Next, it’s best to utilize the Tight Grip Perk, which improves your accuracy and recoil during sustained fire. To assist with ADS times even further, we recommend using the On-Hand Perk 2.

Perk 1 Quick Fix
Perk 2 Tempered
Perk 3 Amped

You’ll want to select Perks that adhere to your playstyle, but in general, our go-to list remains the same. Go with Quick Fix to trigger immediate health regenerations when you secure an elimination or apply an armor plate. We also recommend Tempered, allowing you to reach max armor with only two plates instead of three (also making your plates last longer). You can use Overkill as well to bring along a sniper, but we typically recommend grabbing another loadout so you don’t waste the Perk slot. Finally, it’s best to go with Amped for Perk slot 3, as it lets you swap weapons faster. This is significant when using a sniper rifle as your other weapon.

Lethal Equipment Semtex
Tactical Equipment Stims

The equipment you bring comes down to personal preference, but there are a few options you’ll want to consider. Semtex grenades are certainly a great choice for clearing out a room, while Throwing Knives work well to immediately finish off a downed enemy. As for Tactical Equipment, Stims are usually the best option, as they immediately trigger health regeneration, even in the gas.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is on track to be the most successful Call of Duty release in the franchise's history thanks to a record-breaking launch, according to Activision and Microsoft.

The companies revealed that Black Ops 6 had the biggest three-day opening for the series by many metrics. It had the most players, most hours played, and the most total matches, according to a post on X (formerly Twitter). The game also got a shout-out during Microsoft's quarterly earnings call on Wednesday.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies: tips and tricks for beginners

After the backlash surrounding the Zombies mode in Modern Warfare 3, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has returned to the round-based roots we all know and love. Well, the structure might be familiar, but this mode has more than its fair share of new tricks that will see you getting swarmed in seconds if you can't learn to adapt. If you're familiar with how Call of Duty handles its Zombies mode, you will know that there's a lot more you need to know besides just shooting zombies if you want to make it to the later rounds. If you want to survive as long as possible, we have the key tips and tricks to withstand the zombie horde in Black Ops 6.
The basics still apply

There are a few tips from past Zombies games that will serve you well here in Black Ops 6 that are worth a quick reminder. Starting off with the need to conserve ammo in the early game. Zombies are weakest in the first handful of rounds, but ammo is incredibly scarce. You can't count on getting more when you need it, so save as much as possible and try to melee as many zombies as possible. Only shoot if you get swarmed, need to save a teammate, or when a boss or elite shows up.

The best Wildcards in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Kill Order gameplay in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

The concept of a Wildcard might sound like a risky endeavor in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, but this part of your loadout isn't random at all. We haven't seen this system since Cold War, and even those who remember it from that game will need to learn all the new cards there are in Black Ops 6. You can only equip a single Wildcard on your loadout, but they are powerful enough to completely redefine your playstyle. So far, there are only six to unlock while grinding through the levels with your friends, but picking just one is still a tough choice, especially if you want to use a permanent unlock on one after hitting Prestige. We've ranked all the Wildcards in Black Ops 6 so you can always have the winning hand.
All Black Ops 6 Wildcards, ranked

There is a level of personal preference in which Wildcard you will find better than others, but in most cases, the ones we've ranked as the best will help every player gain an edge in online matches. Here's our ranking of each Wildcard from best to worst, along with what level you unlock them at.
Perk Greed - Level 54
The last Wildcard you unlock is easily the most powerful. Perk Greed lets you unlock a fourth Perk to your loadout instead of being limited to three, which can borderline break the game if you choose the right set of Perks. It is also the most versatile of the Wildcards since it gives you the most options to play with instead of a specific bonus you may not find useful. It can also more easily unlock the special bonus buff you get for equipping three Perks from the same category.
Gunfighter - Level 33
Right in the middle of the unlock list, Gunfighter is one Wildcard you could easily make a case for over Perk Greed in some situations. This one increases your attachment points for your primary weapon by three. If you're rocking a top-tier weapon already, this Wildcard can let you tweak its stats even higher. We rank it second because it only applies to one weapon and thus is a bit more limiting.
Overkill - Level 24
For such an early Wildcard, Overkill is quite a powerful choice. This card lets you equip any weapon (except melee weapons) in your Primary and Secondary slots instead of the ones typically reserved for each. That means you can build a loadout with two Primary weapons and be far more versatile on the battlefield. Instead of having to trade off range, damage, rate of fire, mobility, or any other aspect of your game, you can cover almost all your bases by picking two Primary weapons that cover each other's weaknesses.
Prepper - Level 45
Field upgrades are powerful, don't get us wrong, but having two instead of one isn't always that much of a game-changer. It's a bit less useful than Gunfighter only because field upgrades are more situational and require more attention to use to their full potential. If that's you, then this is a great choice.
Danger Close - Level 38
Who doesn't want another grenade, Molotov, or combat axe? Is getting a second Lethal worth the Wildcard slot, though? Not in our opinion. Most of the time, Lethals are used in desperation or as a way to deny enemy movement for a time, and even then, they are risky because of how vulnerable you are while using them.
Tactical Expert - Level 15
The first Wildcard you get is better than nothing, but only just. It's exactly like Danger Close, only you can hold two Tacticals instead of Lethals. This is, by nature, a little worse since Tacticals don't have the ability to kill an enemy (unless you get super lucky and you directly hit an enemy with one who is on low HP). You can get some use out of them, but you're better off upgrading as soon as you have another option.
