Summary
Players are now advising against purchasing some of the in-game items inCall of Duty: Black Ops 6, warning that certain bundles actually hurt gameplay. New items likeBlack Ops 6’s IDEAD bundle come with special versions of the game’s base weapons, which feature their own unique model and effects. However, some of these effects can be quite intense, with one fan showing they may actually putCall of Duty: Black Ops 6players at a disadvantage.
Despite only releasing a few months ago,Call of Duty: Black Ops 6has enjoyed an immense amount of both success and controversy, with the perception of the game quickly turning as gamers enter the new year. While the core gameplay remains as satisfying as ever, fans have voiced their concerns over the game’s live service model as well asBlack Ops 6’s ranked mode, which remains infested with cheaters. Developer Treyarch attempted to solve this issue by updatingBlack Ops 6’s anti-cheat system, but hacking and cheating still remain a problem. Couple these issues with the loss of original voice actors inBlack Ops 6’s Zombies mode, and it’s not hard to see whyBlack Ops 6has become controversial. This trend continues in a new post online, with aBlack Ops 6player warning others against spending real money on the game.

Reddit user Fat_Stacks10 shared an image of the game’s firing range, a special mode that allows players to get a feel for the various weapons featured inBlack Ops 6. While this feature is intended to grant players a safe way to practice, the player warns thatBlack Ops 6’s IDEAD bundle is “unusable” due to the visual effect present after firing. A significant number of effects, like fire and lightning, appear for a short time after the trigger is pulled on the weapon. While certainly cool-looking, these effects essentially put players at a disadvantage compared toBlack Ops 6’s regular arsenal.

In-game purchases, including special Mastercraft variants of weapons, have longbeen part of theCall of Dutyexperience. A wide range of new weapons are featured inBlack Ops 6’s rotating in-game store, changing daily, weekly, and monthly. However, players are becoming increasingly wary of the intense effects often coupled with these special weapons inBlack Ops 6, some of which make using the “premium” gun a worse choice than the base version.
