Call of Duty games have added plenty of cosmetic skins, but possibly none more controversial than Roze. Modern Warfare 2019\u2019s Roze operator bundle drew criticism because of the character\u2019s all-black outfits. Players argued it was a nightmare to locate her in the jungles of Caldera. Fans experienced a nasty deja vu case when the LA Thieves released its CDL Pack operator skin. The operator dawns an all-black suit with red LA letters on the front. Community members flocked to the store, labeling it \u201cRoze 2.0.\u201d However, some fans argued the LA Thieves skin is not as overpowered as the original. Activision disagreed, adding bright red shoulder straps and goggles to the Operator over a week after the skin\u2019s release. Modern Warfare 2 players demanded a refund for purchasing a different product initially. Modern Warfare 2 fans feel deceived by LA Thieves operator change On December 9, CharlieINTEL reported Activision nerfed the LA Thieves skin by adding a brighter red color to the gear. The Operator skin was initially released with an all-black design on November 29, prompting players to demand a refund. CharlieINTEL shot down any hopes of a refund, stating, \u201cNo refunds will happen. Activision has a legal note in all microtransactions saying they can change products any time.\u201d Despite knowing it was a futile effort, fans flooded the comment section with complaints. ModernWarzone owner DougDagnabbit, responded, \u201cAre they gonna give refunds or what?\u201d A second user added, \u201cI feel like this is deliberate. They knew people would buy, so it\u2019s pretty much a money grab. Pretty pathetic, but at least it\u2019s still the best-looking CDL skin. One user made a clever analogy, \u201cIt\u2019s like you went to the mall and picked out a sweater you liked, bought it, then two weeks later someone magically changed the color of it in your closet.\u201d It remains to be seen if players are given refunds for purchasing the operator skin, but we will provide an update if possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern Warfare 2 fans demand refund after LA Thieves CDL skin nerf ActivisionModern Warfare 2 fans demanded a refund for the LA Thieves CDL skin after the developers altered the operator.
