Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players are cautioning against purchasing the IDEAD bundle due to its visually overwhelming effects hindering gameplay. The intense visual effects, including fire and lightning, significantly impair aiming accuracy, rendering the weapon less effective than standard counterparts. Activision's refusal to offer refunds, citing functionality as intended, further fuels player frustration.
This warning adds to growing concerns surrounding Black Ops 6's live service model. The game, despite its recent release, has faced criticism for a ranked mode plagued by cheaters and the replacement of original Zombies voice actors. While Treyarch has attempted anti-cheat updates, the problem persists.
A Reddit user, Fat_Stacks10, highlighted the IDEAD bundle's impracticality in the firing range, demonstrating the debilitating impact of the post-fire effects. This underscores a broader player sentiment regarding increasingly intense visual effects bundled with premium weapons, often making them inferior to standard options.
Black Ops 6 is currently in Season 1, which introduced new content including maps (like the Zombies map Citadelle des Morts) and additional store bundles. However, the ongoing issues with cheating, the controversial live service model, and now the problematic IDEAD bundle, continue to generate negative player feedback. Season 1 is slated to conclude on January 28th, with Season 2 anticipated soon after.
