Ideas
Sorry in advance to others who can't actually play, but I think there is a slight workaround for the pack welcome screen. Now I don't own a PS4 or 5 so I don't know if this going to work for that console, but it seems to work for Xbox One. As for X and S owners, well don't have one of those either, I've got an old Xbox One Slim, so try this. When the game starts and you get the screen to "Check out" the marketplace accept it (press A on "Check it out") this should take you directly to the marketplace. Then just press B to exit and it takes you to the main menu. Load your game as normal, there is a caveat, when exiting the game after playing the pack welcome screens appear, but just go to the dashboard and quit the game. The caveat is it does not clear build\buy items, but it does get past the pack\kit welcome screens when you first start the game. It has worked for me four out of four times, so good luck, and sorry once again to PS4 and 5 players if this doesn't work.
Sagitdawg I play on a Series X and there is no "Check out the Marketplace" screen that pops up ahead of the "Welcome to..." prompts. Perhaps that screen appeared the very first time I launched the game after the Marketplace update (I can't remember) but it doesn't happen now.
Come to think of it, it's strange that you would get such a screen every time you boot up the game on your console. That sounds like a separate bug (if you've already checked it out, then the game shouldn't keep pestering you to do so on every launch) that just happens to be beneficial in your case for circumventing the Welcome to pop-ups.
In any case, in Xbox Series X, launching the game takes you immediately to the Welcome to DLC pop-ups. There's no avoiding it.
