The ISO 45 SMG is the newest weapon added to Call of Duty: Warzone during Season 4, alongside the Tempus Razorback rifle. This SMG is, as expected, ideal for close-range encounters in Warzone, and it’s perfect for the new Vondel map. As always, building weapons with the best attachments can be an overwhelming process, but this guide is here to help. This is the best ISO 45 Warzone loadout.
Statistically, the ISO 45 comes out ahead of previous close-range meta weapons like the Lachmann Sub, VEL 46, and Vaznev-9K — at least within the first nine meters. It’s also worth noting the ISO 45 has a fast fire rate, meaning you’ll likely blow through ammo quickly if you aren’t accurate with your shots.
With this loadout, you’ll mostly want to focus on close to midrange gunfights. Start with the Lockshot KT85 Muzzle for improved vertical and horizontal recoil control. Next, we recommend the 1mw Quick Fire Laser to improve your aim down sights (ADS) speed (while compensating for the Muzzle’s downsides).
Next, you have to use the 45 Round Mag with the ISO 45 to ensure you have enough ammo to take down your opponents. After that, go with the SK-3 Cheetah Stock, which improves your sprint speed, crouch movement speed, aim walking speed, and ADS times. Finish off the build with the EXP Shear Rear Grip for yet another boost to ADS speed and sprint-to-fire times, making it feel snappy.
Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.
Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.
Gaming laptops and I have a complicated relationship. One of my first gaming rigs was an Acer Predator that was already outdated when I bought it. I was a broke college kid, and that was the best I could afford. So trying out high-end gaming laptops is always fun. But ASUS' ROG Zephyrus G14 is a lot more than a laptop that can run AAA games. It is portable, so you're not lugging around a 2.5kg machine everywhere you go. It is built well, none of that plastic chassis, and can even function as a normal laptop outside of just gaming.
Google Play is borrowing one of the Nintendo Switch’s most useful little tricks. A new Sidekick tool called Playbacks captures a short clip after something interesting has already happened, sparing players from running a screen recorder throughout an entire game.
Playbacks is part of Google Play Store v53.8 and keeps saved clips on the phone. Google first announced it earlier this month, but the new Play Store update marks its arrival for players. Anyone who has watched a perfect win vanish because the record button came too late already understands the appeal.
