COD Points

[Middle Class Caveman 980]

This is the first time in my life i've bought cod points and used them in game, the gun unlock system just isn't good for casual players and in order to enjoy myself I felt compelled to buy some useful guns. Shameful tactics by COD really but a clever may to separate me from my money 😞

'Useful Guns' have a tendency to become useless when the next DLC gets released. It's a vicious circle, and one I think a lot of people get forced into by the state of the casual guns and their balance issues.

 

I've brought a few myself and always regret it down the line. I hope you don't feel this way of course! But it does seem to be a evil tactic employed by those at COD HQ.

Some of them do have pretty flashing lights though, which is fun! 😂😭

Yep, once the bundle gets nerfed right on cue, it pushes people towards the next premium one. The old one becomes obsolete, people originally complaining about it being OP are finally happy for a few days and then the new bundle releases and it's rinse and repeat. It's a slippery slope once people fall into this trap and whilst many get out without spending too much, others are paying up to £100 a month.

Really? I didn't get that feeling at all on levelling up guns. This is the first game I really didn't feel like it was a hard grind either. I went through guns up to gold with 2 or 3 at the same time to mix it up. I think I only had to seek out one or two weapons to unlock a certain LMG or SMG in the end because most all connect to each other in the unlock path.

 

CoD points wise, I agree you shouldn't feel like you need to buy them - I only bought the first pack because its been that good and I knew I could keep buying the next season pass out of the cod points it gives me. No mopre money on skins and I get all the blueprints now which are a nice quick change rather than figuring out a setup that works for you when you don't have time.

Work smarter, not harder 😂
