In Modern Warfare 2 Season 6, Gaia got a Groot-like tree skin for the game\u2019s Halloween event. A segment of the player base labeled the skin as \u201cpay-to-win\u201d because the bottom half of the body isn\u2019t as visible as the top half. Community members compared the \u201cbroken\u201d bundle to the infamous Roze and 100 Thieves skins that also suffered from poor visibility. Some hoped that they would be able to avoid the skin in Modern Warfare 3, but the Carry Forward program makes it so the Gaia skin is useable in the new title. It didn\u2019t take long for MW3 community members to claim that the Gaia skin is \u201cway worse\u201d and makes enemies \u201cliterally invisible.\u201d Sledgehammer Games finally responded to complaints but didn\u2019t deliver universally accepted news. MW3 players slam response to Gaia skin complaints Sledgehammer Games announced as part of a Q&#038;A session with fans: \u201cAdjustments to Gaia and Gaia Blackcell Operator Skins are in the pipeline for Modern Warfare III. In a future game update, we\u2019ll disable this item until said changes can be released to all players.\u201d CharlieIntel shared the announcement, and community members sounded off in the comment section. One player responded: \u201cJust get rid of that skin.\u201d Meanwhile, a second user added: \u201cGood. A simple fix is just to make the back half of the skin solid, though. Been saying it since it released.\u201d Or a third community member suggested: \u201cThey should really keep it removed permanently and just no longer advertise it as carry-over.\u201d What precisely the devs have up their sleeves to improve the operator\u2019s skin\u2019s visibility remains to be seen. Additionally, no date was provided for when the skin will be temporarily removed.
