WOC Pay to win now

Has anyone else noticed that there are pre-made loadouts only available for purchase? There was the shark-enf and now there is a new pre made loadout only available for purcahse. This is only going to get worse if people dont speak up about it. Only a matter of time before they add a sniper build with 99 speed or something insane. Cosmetics can be for purchase but you cant do that with loadouts. This is not right…..

    I don't see how we're forcing people to use these builds to compete. A team of skilled players with good chemistry can win with pretty much any build. I'll pass on the feedback for you regardless.

  • It seems EA is still doing this, so I will keep this updated. There has been a turkey dangler most recently added. Again this loadout is only available for purchase. This company continues to try to find way to make money over improving gameplay. And they wonder why the player base is low….

    Of course EA is still doing this - The fact you saw the goofy gobbler playing (I even had one as a drop-in) shows people are spending the money on 'em. I don't mind the cosmetic side of it but i explicitly told them doing testing that giving them any sort of edge (in this case Xfactors the roles usually would never get) would be a major mistake and cause backlash

  • Welcome to the state of gaming in 2025 my friend. You are about 5 years or so behind, but this is how it is has been and it is only getting worse. Back in the original warzone days (2020) they started dropping skins that almost blended in completely with the map. Some skins also came with unique weapons. And if you buy the battle pass + skips,  you have access to all the things on day 1 that people will be grinding a month for. Same ideology is being applied to every game that includes customization and item stats.

  • EA just made this worse. They nerfed all player made builds but did not touch the pre-made builds. This makes all pre-made builds that much stronger. Also they added 2 more builds once again only available for purchase. This has to stop. If you want cosmetics for purchase, I don't have a problem with it. Im not a fan of a giant turkey on the ice, but at least there is no advantage. With overpowered pre-made builds only available to buy, this is a big problem that continues to get worse, as I have predicted.
