When you load up the game, you often see too many advertisements as Activision desperately tries to convince players why they need their expensive cosmetic bundles. Before the season 4 update, these adverts wouldn’t annoy you after the home screen, but now, players have discovered that they also appear in the loadouts section. It’s no secret that Activision manipulates the Call of Duty fanbase into buying expensive skins. Activision holds a patent that allows it to use matchmaking that influences game-related purchases. There is no proof that Activision uses this in its games, but it does raise some eyebrows. Call of Duty: ****** Ops 6 and Warzone players have come across advertisements in the Loadouts section Shortly after the Call of Duty Season 4 went live, ****** Ops 4 and Warzone players discovered that Activision quietly put advertisements inside loadouts.

Not just that, the bundle and Battle Pass advertisements have also been added to the Events tab. ****** Ops 6 players believe that putting advertisements all over players’ screens doesn’t make sense because of the game’s high price tag. Anyone interested in skins can simply navigate to the Shop, so there’s no need for annoying advertising. Players strongly believe that Activision has become quite aggressive when it comes to its microtransaction strategy. Players have joked that very soon, everyone will come across bundle advertisements while they are in a match. It’s not just a joke because, judging by the pace at which Activision is moving, very soon we might see this. Activision holds a patent that allows it to manipulate players into buying bundles This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up It is believed that video games like ****** Ops 6 use SBMM (Skill-based matchmaking); however, most fans believe that the game uses a mix of EOMM and SBMM. While playing the game, it will slowly become evident that the entire matchmaking system is artificial. These are just theories, but what about Activision’s suspicious patent? Since 2017, Activision has been holding a This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up that allows it to match players who have expensive skins with low-ranked players to encourage people to buy more skins. An entire matchmaking system that forces players to play against high-ranked players with skins is just unfair. It’s not just the Call of Duty series that might be using this matchmaking process, as Overwatch 2 players also believe that the matchmaking system in the game is fake. Activision is under scrutiny for its manipulative matchmaking system, but there is no proof that the company is applying this matchmaking system to its games.
