Skins in Call of Duty: Warzone are advertised with a certain effect or style that makes them stand out. While some skins become infamous due to in-game advantages, others play as intended in each match. However, one recently added Call of Duty: Warzone skin is frustrating fans as its in-game appearance does not perform as advertised.
While it is not as problematic as the Call of Duty: Warzone Roze skin was, the problem is still disappointing many fans. Each skin costs real time and money to acquire, making Call of Duty fans feel cheated when a skin has unknown side effects. This time, an Ultra Operator skin is under fire, as the preview does not match the avatar in-game.
Fans who claimed their Call of Duty: Warzone Ultra Operator Skin are not thrilled with the results. The "Magma Fury Ultra Skin Bundle" was released early in August, and fans are noticing that the cool preview does not match in-game appearances. In the Call of Duty: Warzone operator preview tab, the skin is seen with fire, color, and a vibrant effect. However, when a player drops into a match wearing the skin, the details are exceedingly different. Fans were greeted with an extinguished look and lack of color when spotted in-game wearing this new skin.
Fans are frustrated, as the bundle costs CoD Points which can only be acquired through the Battle Pass or purchasing them with real money. One fan in the comments wondered why players would purchase this Call of Duty: Warzone bundle, considering how expensive the Ultra version is compared to others.
While it is clear that the flames are the main selling point, the lack of in-game effect has let down many players. Call of Duty: Warzone fans in the comments are calling for a refund, while others are simply accepting it as another sign of Activision's decline in Warzone. While it is unclear if there is a solution, word of this skin issue is spreading fast throughout the Reddit community.
Call of Duty: Warzone has had several skin errors in the past. Some skins appeared without hair, had graphics issues that crashed systems, and even disappeared in dark corners easily. While the developers are not strangers to skin issues, many fans believe that this implementation was done purposefully. So far, it is unclear if Activision will make changes, but many community members are advising fans not to purchase this skin until the problems are resolved.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
