Featured: Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 has recently presented its players with a range of new cosmetics and a brand new battle pass. But, the effect of some of these cosmetics is not only visual but has a clear advantage for the players in the DMZ mode of Warzone. The resulting community uproar is more than expected and the developers will have to figure out a way around the same issue, including for the upcoming content as well.
, similar to many new releases of major gaming franchises, has not had a smooth start. Like , this new sequel of the famous Call of Duty franchise has been struggling and presenting many problems to its fans, both big and small.
Overall, the gaming press was impressed with the decision of the developers at Activision to push the game into its new form. This came with a range of glitches and problems. That included stability issues, bugs, and even problems related to the gameplay.
The last set of difficulties has proven to be the most damaging and long-lasting, as the gameplay difficulties continue. Not only that, but they also include serious hurdles with the concept of pay to win, which is generally more present in mobile games.
For a Call of Duty title, even a free to play one, the same could be a serious hurdle for further growth of the player community. Furthermore, the pay to win issue is connected to DMZ, one of the most promising new modes of the game.
Warzone 2 Year 1
The players of Warzone 2.0 recently welcomed a big batch of new content. Both it and Modern Warfare, which forms a tightly interconnected gaming space, got their Season 3. It provided players with a new battle pass, but also a range of cosmetic elements.
Activision added the new bundle on April 12 and called it a DMZ boost. The Bomb Squad bundle provides a new operator skin for Fender, a blueprint for SAKIN MG38 LMG and a new slot for active duty. Besides, for $12, players also get an emblem and a sticker.
However, the issues arose quickly inside of the DMZ, the new mode for extraction matches. Here, players that enter with a new Fender skin get immediately a medium backpack. Besides that, their LMG has a faster cooldown compared to regular guns.
Immediately, accusations of pay to win mechanics came flying towards the developers. Additional new bundles only added fuel to the flame.
Thorn Bundle Issues
The Roze and Thorn bundle became an even bigger issue than the benefits that the Fender operator skin provides with its free medium backpack. These allow players to spawn a completely free UAV which they can use in the DMZ games.
So, to mend the same problem, developers added a nerf for this operator skin. It involves players having a 60-second cooldown for the UAVs at the start of the DMZ game.
However, this solved nothing, with players complaining that this further enforces the pay to win system. With the cooldown, players are encouraged to use the UAV at a more beneficial location, using it as a scouting point.
