When the Call of Duty: Warzone update was released earlier this week, it removed Bounty Contracts from the battle royale title.

While the removal wasn't noted in the patch notes, Call of Duty: Warzone players noticed the lack of bounties after updating the game.

Apparently, the bounties were replaced by the new contract Most Wanted. With this contract, you become a target for all teams on the map. If you survive you will receive a redeployment for all of your fallen teammates.

The issue players, and some prominent streamers, are having with the removal, according to Charlie Intel, is the regular contracts, while being higher risk, had higher cash rewards.

They completely removed bounties? I thought they were super well balanced. The team being hunted has ample time to post up in a building or roof and defend themselves until time runs out, also knowing how close the threat is. High risk High reward for players hunting. https://t.co/RHRpZiQp2B
