Players who took advantage of the unintended, early availability of a handy crossbow Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War multiplayer will see how they recover progress with unlocking it, when Treyarch brings it back later.
Although players who bought blueprints for the R1 Shadowhunter for real money (1,200 COD points, usually for $ 10) will refund their purchases, everyone who wants to do so will have to start all over again, and they are pretty excited about it . .
“I was at 14/15,” Redditor Xytoup said Thursday night after Activision announced it pulls the weapon out of the game. The R1 Shadowhunter was unlocked by winning three death medals in 15 different multiplayer matches, with a weapon without attachments.
“I will uninstall the game if it does not meet my challenge,” Xytoup added. “I’m not kidding, they’re fucking everything.”
The R1 Shadowhunter Crossbow was launched on March 18 in a bundle, which will amaze the players as the weapon or its availability is not on the latest patch notes. The Shadowhunter was not useful in War zone, Call of Duty’s free play battle royal mode, but it was available in Black Ops Cold War multiplayer, and CoD fans had to work to unlock it there.
“I spent all afternoon of my free time unlocking the damn thing,” grumbled Trashboat77. ‘And then it started to level. If it does not reflect when it decides to come back, I remove the game. No point in unlocking anything or buying anything if it could stick out from under your feet at any time.
“It’s absolutely ridiculous,” Trashboat77 continued. “Can’t even answer the tweet, because they KNOW it’s going to be a shitty storm.”
A problem with the R1 Shadowhunter weapon that occurs earlier than in Warzone and Black Ops Cold War has been resolved.
Refunds are planned for players who purchased the bundle while it was available in-store, and the package and in-game challenge will return later.– Activision Support (@ATVIAssist) 18 March 2021
