Players are strongly advised against purchasing the IDEAD bundle in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 due to its intense visual effects, which can significantly hinder gameplay. The bundle includes special versions of the game's base weapons, complete with unique models and effects. However, these effects, such as fire and lightning, are so overwhelming that they make aiming difficult, putting players at a disadvantage. Despite these issues, Activision has stated that the bundle is functioning as intended and will not offer refunds.
Since its release just a few months ago, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has experienced both immense success and controversy. While the core gameplay remains highly engaging, the community has raised several concerns. The live service model and the ranked mode, which is plagued by cheaters, have been major points of contention. Despite efforts by developer Treyarch to enhance the anti-cheat system, cheating remains a persistent problem. Additionally, the loss of the original voice actors in the Zombies mode has further fueled the controversy surrounding the game. These issues have led to a growing dissatisfaction among players, as highlighted in a recent post by Reddit user Fat_Stacks10.
Fat_Stacks10 shared an image from Black Ops 6's firing range, a mode designed for players to practice with the game's various weapons. The user warned that the IDEAD bundle is "unusable" due to the visual effects that appear after firing, which include fire and lightning. While these effects are visually striking, they severely impair the player's ability to aim effectively, making the bundle less desirable than the standard weapon options.
Black Ops 6 Player Warns Against Buying Bundle Weapon
In-game purchases, including special Mastercraft variants of weapons, have been a staple of the Call of Duty experience. Black Ops 6 features a rotating in-game store that offers new weapons daily, weekly, and monthly. However, players are increasingly cautious about the intense effects associated with these premium weapons, which can make them less effective than their base counterparts.
Currently, Black Ops 6 is in the midst of its Season 1 content cycle, which has introduced new maps, weapons, and additional store bundles. One of the highlights of Season 1 is the Citadelle des Morts, the latest Zombies map set in a castle and its surrounding village, continuing the Black Ops 6 Zombies storyline. Season 1 is scheduled to conclude on January 28, with Season 2 set to launch shortly thereafter.
