The no-recoil Bren loadout in Call of Duty: Vanguard Season 1

Warzone's most powerful weapon is becoming popular in Vanguard

Over the past month, the Bren light machine gun has become one of the deadliest weapons in all of Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific. The LMG came to the battle royale by way of Vanguard Season 1 and has turned the map of Caldera upside down. However, this dominance hasn’t translated to the Bren’s game of origin. It’s still an underused weapon in Vanguard multiplayer. That could change once players discover that the Bren has a virtual no-recoil loadout in Vanguard.

The Bren already has great recoil control if players equip it with the right loadout. The bullet pattern of the gun can go a little haywire after long stretches of firing, though. This caused some members of the community to come up with a loadout that completely eliminates the Bren’s recoil, no matter the range or length of firing.

This specific loadout originated on Reddit, where a user posted a video of themselves using the Bren. In the clip, the player has no recoil when firing the LMG. When the Bren is put into semi-auto mode, it becomes a laser beam. This is perfect for players who like to play a little farther back in Vanguard, but the gun can be used in any fashion.

So, I’ve noticed a few people on here don’t know that the Bren is actually the most accurate LMG in the game… In Semi-Auto at least

Players can use the Bren in semi-auto by switching its firing mode. This can be done by looking at the bottom right of the screen when playing a match and seeing what keybind is used to switch between fully and semi-auto modes.

Once players have the Bren in semi-auto, they can also equip the .50 BMG 50 Round Mags for extra damage range. This technically lowers recoil control, but it becomes negligible if players use the Bren in semi-auto. As for the rest of the loadout, players can equip all of the meta attachments for the Bren in order to create a quick-killing and no-recoil gun in Vanguard.
