Call of Duty – Modern Warfare 2 Season 6 introduces several new skins for players to earn, one of the recent new skins – Gaia – frustrates the fans as it is very hard to see during in game.

The live service experience game – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 – continues to add new features for players, through bundles within the in-game store or as part of a seasonal battle pass.

The recently launched season 6 for Modern Warfare 2 featured the game with a more Halloween style mood while also adding in the popular comic character Spawn alongside Skeletor, Ash Williams, and a host of others.

Activision – an American video game publisher – made so many new skins and operators, not all of them have been resonated with players.

In fact, there are several examples of cosmetics that have given players an unfair advantage over their lower visibility particularly in the darker areas of the map.

The most widely known example of a skin – giving players an unfair edge is with the operator know as Roze in the official Call of Duty: Warzone having an alternate skin that was almost entirely black, making it nearly impossible to spot in the low light areas.

Regrettably, over the years, several skins have continued to appear with a visibility problem, with the most recent one from Season 6 already establishing problems for the players.

A Reddit user on Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 subReddit, posted a short game clip, showing how the latest skin is causing issues in both the multiplayer and Warzone.

The clip shows that the player is taken by surprise several times by a player wearing Nova’s recently launched skin called Gaia.

The skins transforms Nova into a skinny version of the Marvel character Groot, however, the video clip shows how challenging it is to spot from a distance as the subdued color tones that helps it to blend in with the surroundings, allowing an upper hand to the wearer to get the other players off guard.

Who thought adding a near invisible player skin to the game was a good idea?!

In the comment section of the subReddit, many players got surprised by the footage, calling the situation a standard in the Call of Duty, while few other shows concern that this issue is going to carry over into the next game – Modern Warfare 3.

The skin – Roze – is not the only skin that troubles the players.

During a special Festive Fervor event, the players had the opportunity to face off against Krampus – who targeted the players camping or not actively pursuing the objective.

While the feature itself was already subject of controversy, a disruptive bug which cause all sorts of chaos by rendering Krampus completely visible to Call of Duty: Warzone players who could hear the sound it made but would suddenly find themselves taking damage and go down.

Fortunately, a beast did get a nerf, but it didn’t significantly alter players’ minds on the event overall.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
