Black Ops 6 fans, who initially celebrated the new camo unlock system as the “best ever,” are now frustrated, calling parts of it “pointless” to pursue.

When Black Ops 6 launched, Call of Duty fans were thrilled by its mix of nostalgic gameplay elements with the new omnimovement feature. Despite some critiques, like dissatisfaction with the maps, the game’s multiplayer mode has generally received positive feedback, especially compared to recent entries.

Early on, the camo unlock system stood out as a fan favorite, with many players dubbing it the “best ever” in the series. However, as players delved deeper, opinions have soured. “Why did they think locking special camos to guns you’ve completed all military camos on was a good idea?” questioned Redditor Professional_Wall725, arguing that this approach makes certain camos feel “pointless” since players would likely want to switch to gold or other unlocked options by that point.

The frustration doesn’t end there. Other fans have echoed complaints about the restrictions, with one player saying, “If I unlocked the camo, I should be able to use it.” Another added, “It’s pointless. The only joy is using it for a match or two before switching.”

Though fans initially praised the system for moving away from the “misery” of past games, some are now calling for a return to Modern Warfare 2’s (2022) approach, where unlocking a camo made it available across all weapons. As the debate continues, it remains to be seen if developers will adjust the system to better align with fan expectations.
