However, this new unlock has popular Call of Duty YouTuber Jason \u2018FaZe Jev\u2019 Eugene riled up already. Following in the footsteps of Damascus, Obsidian serves as an elite weapon camouflage. A skin for everyone else to envy as only the best players should be able to acquire the rare unlock. After putting in the effort and grinding for his first Obsidian camo, Jev had quite a few words for the developers at Infinity Ward as he slammed the time-consuming challenges needed to unlock the all-black skin. The first step in unlocking a single Obsidian camo is to have the golden camo already. Once the initial skin is unlocked, depending on your weapon type of choice, you\u2019ll then need to get a set amount of kills over a large number of games. If you\u2019re pushing for an Obsidian sniper, for instance, you\u2019re going to need to tally up 15 kills across 125 unique lobbies. That\u2019s exactly what FaZe Jev accomplished just days into the latest update. Upon completing the lengthy task, he was less than pleased with Infinity Ward, however. \u201cIf you really think that this equates to the amount of effort that we as players put forth\u2026I don\u2019t know,\u201d Jev said, before firing up for a heated rant. \u201cYou went out of your way, to put a challenge in the game that so blatantly is there to just cause player-retention in multiplayer. You can show your investors, oh look, multiplayer is still doing well, it\u2019s not getting hard-carried by Warzone.\u201d Mastery camos are intended for the most dedicated players, but even Jev appears fed up with the Obsidian grind after smashing out just a single unlock. To make matters worse, he was also disappointed when checking out the skin-in game for the first time. \u201cWell\u2026 here it is. I mean, it doesn\u2019t look awful,\u201d he joked when first loading into a custom game. Comparing the standard black camo in Modern Warfare to the new Obsidian black, he stressed that \u201c[nobody] is going to be able to notice the difference.\u201d For mobile readers, the related section begins at 5:35. Convinced that the latest challenge is purely in place to \u201ckeep people in multiplayer for as long as possible,\u201d the Obsidian camo appears to have done more harm than good for FaZe Jev. There\u2019s no telling if the developers at Infinity Ward might reduce the time-consuming requirements for each weapon type. For the time being though, it\u2019s unlikely that many players will be able to show off Obsidian unlocks anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FaZe Jev explains why CoD\u2019s new Obsidian camo challenge isn\u2019t worth it YouTube: FaZe Jev \/ Infinity WardInfinity Ward updated Modern Warfare on April 28 to include a new mastery \u2018Obsidian\u2019 weapon camo.
