The best Warzone FR Avancer loadout

The new Call of Duty: Warzone FR Avancer assault rifle has just launched as part of season 5, and it’s a great addition to the stacked lineup of weapons. While it doesn’t really compete at long range, it works well as a sniper support weapon, with fast mobility and a high rate of fire to take down your foes quickly. The new FR Avancer works best on the smaller maps like Vondel and Ashika Island, but that doesn’t mean it’s completely useless on Al Mazrah. In this guide, we’ll cover the best sniper support build for the new FR Avancer in Warzone.

Rear Grip RMT Grip

With this being a sniper-support build, you’ll want to prioritize ease of use at midrange, without absolutely tanking the recoil control and mobility. Start by equipping the 435mm FR435 Barrel for better recoil control, hip recoil control, and bullet velocity. We then recommend the Harbinger D20 Muzzle, which grants sound suppression and boosts bullet velocity, damage range, and recoil smoothness.

After that, it’s best to go with the FTAC Ripper 56 Underbarrel, which improves your aiming idle stability and hip fire accuracy, as well as recoil stabilization. next, we recommend the 60 Round Mag to ensure you have enough ammo to take down your foes (but you can use smaller mags if you’re playing solos or duos). Finish the build with the RMT Grip Rear Grip for improved sprint-to-fire and aim-down sights speeds.

Activision finally has a solution for giant Call of Duty file sizes
Soldiers fight in a shopping plaza in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

It wouldn't be a Call of Duty launch without conversations about large file sizes, but Activision is looking to address those issues with a series of updates over the next few months. One of the biggest involves decoupling the free-to-play Warzone from the main game, which will help to make Black Ops 6 smaller than Modern Warfare 3, according to the publisher.

While Activision hasn't revealed game file size just yet, these new changes will be implemented starting on August 21 with Season 5 Reloaded. In a blog post published Thursday, Activision developers laid out plans to streamline textures and to encourage users to download early, but making Warzone a separate download by default will be the most impactful on file sizes. Warzone is a battle royale that's a separate, free-to-play game, so there's no reason to keep it tied with the latest Call of Duty main release. It'll be available to install at any time, and players can opt to download it with Black Ops 6.

Fortnite is cutting down on item FOMO with new store change
The TMNT Fortnite skins. We have all four turtles in fighting poses in front of a purple background.

Fortnite practically runs on FOMO (fear of missing out). if you don't get the item you want in a battle pass, you'll most likely never get the chance again. So if you wanted to run around as Goku and missed when the excellent skin was available? Tough luck.

But that policy is changing soon. Developer Epic Games announced in a blog post that items could be made available in the Shop 18 months after their respective battle passes expired at the least. That includes alt styles, which might also come to the Shop, along with licensed outfits you may have missed out on. This also applies to items that may have been unlocked after a battle pass launch.
