Call of Duty generally takes a more realistic approach and avoids overly crazy, physical gameplay mechanics in its current titles – this also applies to Call of Duty: Warzone. However, the Battle Royale does not always remain true to ‘real’ physics, as becomes clear when you want to place a turret on a truck.
The mid-season update of Season 4 brought automated turrets into the game. The new killstreak is a rare loot crate drop and can be found on the map Verdansk in the loot rooms of the red doors. When you set up the turret, the device provides automatic fire protection for 60 seconds and covers your back or specific areas.
The turret can be helpful and allows for exciting tactical options. It is a new twist in the game that enriches the gameplay. No wonder players are doing a lot with the new turret to gain an advantage from the automatic fire tower. However, you should not place it on a truck.
Big Bertha reacts allergically to the turret
What does that look like? User “AdamMarsdenUK” uploaded a clip on reddit that illustrates why we should wear safety glasses more often in physics class:
Adam sets up the turret on a truck. Normally, you cannot place the killstreak on a truck, but with the help of an armor crate, several placement mechanics in Warzone can be tricked. Once the turret is set up, Adam comfortably takes the driver’s seat, inserts his driver card, and steps on the gas.
Shortly after getting in, the truck shakes and jolts wildly. Adam immediately lost control, and the truck rattled around. After a few seconds, the vehicle approaches a tree with a sideways movement and climbs the branches a few meters up. Fortunately, another Warzone mechanic then pulled the emergency brake and threw Adam out of the truck.
Surprised and slightly frightened, Adam gains some distance from the physical phenomenon occurring in front of him. The truck ended up on its back due to the tree climbing and exploded shortly after making contact with the ground. An exciting interplay of potential and kinetic energy in a crazy glitch.
What do the players say about it? Even though it’s a new bug in the game: The mood in the thread for the clip on reddit is very good. Many players are delighted by the performance of Bertha, as the big trucks are affectionately called in the community:
- qurplex: “That could be a good trap. Leave it there and wait for someone to steal it.”
- NoEThanks: “Something similar happens when you stick a piece of tape to a cat.”
- BobAffenhaus: “Honestly, I’m glad it didn’t work out. That’s the stuff nightmares are made of.”
The thread creator Adam has actually responded to many comments, explaining that the turret even survived the action. A questionable success but definitely a new insight.
Good knowledge of Warzone mechanics helps you in many situations to have the crucial advantage over your opponents. Glitched trucks are not necessarily part of that, but the fact that armor crates can sometimes help set up a field upgrade or a killstreak is quite interesting.
