Modern Warfare 2 players flock to buy \u201cRoze 2.0\u201d skin from LA Thieves CDL pack ActivisionModern Warfare 2 players have made the LA Thieves\u2019 Call of Duty League skin one of the game\u2019s most purchased items as they try to take advantage of its similarity to Warzone\u2019s infamous Roze skin. The Warzone Roze skin saga will be familiar to anyone who played the first CoD battle royale. The dark and monochromatic skin blended into Verdansk and Caldera\u2019s shaded areas, making identifying and eliminating users incredibly challenging. While the skin was believed to have died with the first Warzone, players of the recently released Warzone 2.0 believe they\u2019ve found an alternative. Specifically, the LA Thieves\u2019 CDL team skin, released in-game on November 29, has drawn comparisons to Roze because of its dark aesthetic. Plenty of Redditors made the comparisons, pointing to the fact it has sold so frequently it\u2019s actually among the best-selling games on Steam, floating around the top 10 every day. New Roze skin? One player argued the LA Thieves\u2019 skin is outselling all the others by such a margin because players believe it will be \u2018meta\u2019 and harder to detect. \u201cPeople are only buying it because the skin is super dark,\u201d they said. \u201cThey want to have a Roze skin alternative from WZ1.\u201d Others agreed, with another post saying \u201cWarzone 2.0 has Roze 2.0\u201d in reference to the LA Thieves\u2019 skin. Plenty piled in to criticize its design, arguing that the number of issues caused by Roze in the first Warzone should have prevented a similar skin from being designed. One commented: \u201cPut any dark skin like that, immobile, in a cave or any dark spot and it will have the same effect Roze Skin had.\u201d However, others argued that the skin will be less effective in Warzone 2.0, primarily because the game\u2019s lighting is better than its predecessor and there are fewer shadier areas where visibility is reduced. One said: \u201cBlack doesn\u2019t really help too much in this game, the lighting is a ton better, it\u2019s almost a hindrance now.\u201d Whether the LA Thieves skin does become meta and an issue moving forwards is another matter but, based on how well it has sold, players can certainly expect to encounter it frequently in game in the coming weeks and months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
