The latest update for has addressed an issue with vehicles that players were finding particularly annoying. Anyone who’s dabbled in the free-to-play battle royale will by now surely have fallen foul of what I honestly think is one of the worst ways to die in the game: Being ran down by some prick in a car.

While you can always see vehicles coming on the minimap, their speed, health, and easy-to-control nature make them incredibly dangerous weapons. I’m not saying you run people down to win if you get a chance, but I do personally think there’s absolutely no honour in getting kills that way.

Players have started to refer to this as the vehicle meta, and developer Infinity Ward is now mercifully attempting to implement changes that makes cruising around in an armoured vehicle waiting for fresh meat a less viable option. Just recently changes were made to the hitbox of most vehicles. Previously, you’d barely need to tap someone with your car to register a kill. Now, you actually have to .

Infinity Ward is now going even further, and I couldn’t be happier. Armoured trucks have now been completely removed from ‘s Solos mode. This particular vehicle is arguably the most dangerous owing to its extra-high endurance (it’s armoured, after all).

In modes where you’re playing with teams of three or four, it’s a easier to take one of these bad boys out, or at least snipe any teammates who might be riding on the back of the truck. But if you hopped in one during a Solo game? You were damn-near unstoppable.

All other vehicles currently remain in Solos mode, which is fine for now. The chopper is a lot harder to get kills with then it used to be, and most of the other cars are way easier to take down. That’s not to say they couldn’t still do with some tweaking though, so I’ll be interested to see where the vehicle meta goes over the next few weeks.

In other Season 3 news, a recent update to the main game’s multiplayer just brought back a classic mode, while got a limited time mode that… well, people hated it. Learn and grow, Infinity Ward, that’s all you can do.
