Since Season 3 began Activision has added a whole host of new cosmetics to Warzone 2, with the premium BlackCell battle pass and bundles that the community has labeled pay to win. Many Warzone 2 players were unhappy with these changes and now another new monetization scheme has been implemented. This time around the Call of Duty publisher is trying to sell players recolored skins from the original Modern Warfare reboot. Warzone 2 sells full-price recolored skins from Modern Warfare On April 18, a new bundle was added to Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2. Titled Tracer Pack: Dr. Kushlov, the cannabis-themed bundle costs 2,400 COD Points and reuses assets from the previous Modern Warfare. In the bundle, there is a Kastov 762 variant called the Vaporizer which is a reskin of Modern Warfare\u2019s Resonant, an AK-47 that fired electric bullets. Instead of electricity, the Vaporizer fires green tracers and leaves behind a Smoke Puff death effect. Outside of the recolored variant, tracers, and new death effect, the Vaporizer is largely identical to the Resonant. The gun model itself is extremely similar even utilizing renamed versions of the same barrel and magazine attachment. The Dr. Kushlov bundle also contains an operator skin for Gromsko that reuses assets from Bale\u2019s Dr. Karlov skin featured in Modern Warfare. Plus the Classic Ghost Pack is currently being sold for 2,400 COD Points with the operator skins included being recolors of previously sold items. Call of Duty YouTuber HunterTV replied questioning the inconsistencies: \u201cI don\u2019t understand how they couldn\u2019t transfer bundles from MW2019 when tons of blueprints, skins, assets, and huge structures transferred over with no problem.\u201d Warzone streamer StoneMountain64 poked fun at the situation, simply saying: \u201cAll the fun of buying the same skin again,\u201d with a laughing emoji attached. An upset user responding on Reddit made their views on selling recolored items clear: \u201cIt\u2019s crazy how much stuff is being taken from the last MW game and being resold to people. It is so f**king scummy. A lot of bundles lately are made up of 80% stuff that people bought 2-3 years ago.\u201d Recoloring skins is something that\u2019s happened in other battle royales, such as Apex Legends, but fans haven\u2019t been quite as outraged over there. So, we\u2019ll have to wait and see if anything changes on the CoD side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone 2 is reusing classic Warzone 1 skins and players are furious Activision is selling recolored skins from older Call of Duty games in Warzone 2 and it has infuriated the community.
