When equipping and customizing a weapon in Call of Duty, you must make some choices. First, you need to choose which weapon you want. Then, you need to choose the attachments to help accentuate your playstyle. And finally, you have to decide when and how to fire it when you’re in a match.
The Cronen Squall bullpup battle rifle was added for season three in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone, and its versatility makes it an interesting weapon of choice. It has a pretty quick time-to-kill, but a choice must be made: Are you firing full-auto or semi-auto?
Here are the best attachments to use when playing with the Cronen Squall in the battle royale.

Why this is the best Cronen Squall loadout in Warzone
The Cronen Squall is a battle rifle in MW2, and it can be fired full-automatic or semi-automatic. For Warzone 2’s mostly long-range purposes, you might consider sticking to semi-automatic fire. If not, you can use the BR’s big magazine to spray down enemies up close. This loadout will suit you well for that purpose, and it has a pretty solid TTK with it.
When firing full-auto, the Cronen Squall has an obscene amount of recoil, so it’s not ideal to fire it at mid-range and definitely not at long range. Because of that, we have found that at long range, sometimes it’s best to use it as a semi-auto gun and potentially switch to full-auto to fight an enemy who pushes up close if you don’t have a valid secondary weapon.

But its power makes it worth firing full-auto if you can maintain its recoil, and many players seem to agree. The Cronen Squall has been a top meta pick since it joined the game in season three.
You should always have another option in your back pocket in Warzone, so make sure to pair up the Cronen Squall with an SMG or a sniper rifle of some kind so you are covered in all sorts of combat scenarios.
