I wasn't aware of the battle pass situation and was keen to try the game out as I haven't played a COD in years. I may need to re-think. I've always preferred Battlefield anyway so maybe I just wait it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The battle pass is something you progress through by playing the game or paying real world currency to unlock in-game items like skins and weapons. It's not really P2W since the guns can be earned for free, although you can miss out on them by not progressing far enough through the battle pass before the season ends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have to buy the battle pass though? And then buy again for the next season? Or can it be unlocked just by playing the game? Sorry, I haven't played a COD in a long time.

I've always preferred Battlefield anyway so maybe I just wait it out. Its a progression system with usually lack luster rewards like stickers/emblems or bad weapon skins And gestures and dance moves, at the end theres usually a new weapon you can unlock, but if you dont have atleast 8hours a day to play, everyday during the corse of the season, you will probably miss out on said items And even the new weapon(s) but for extra money, you can buy tiers for real money And skip the grind, they even offer deals periodically on reduced prices for tier skips, but its just another way these billion dollar companies Nickle and dime you for an unpolished game 2 minutes ago, PeachyJacobs said: Do you have to buy the battle pass though? And then buy again for the next season? Or can it be unlocked just by playing the game? Sorry, I haven't played a COD in a long time. The battle pass is the tier system so they come out with a season that usually lasts about 62 days, during that season theres 100 or more tiers to complete, each tier to complete takes roughly about 2hours real time, the final reward at tier 100 usually being a new weapon, each tier is a different useless reward Like a sticker or a weapon camo, etc. after the season is over a new one begins shortly after, if you didnt finish the Previous seasons rewards, guess what, theyre gone forever and you potentially missed out on unlocking that particular weapon..and thats where microtransactions come in, for the people who dont have 10hours a day to grind out the tiers And just drop cold hard cash on the game, and were not even talking about supply drops at this point Which can cost you even more real hard earned money, or you can slowly earn them over time 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if Modern Warfare provided you with enough initial currency to purchase the battle pass, but if Black Ops doesn't, then you'll have to pay something like $10. Clearing the entire battle pass should net you enough currency to buy the next pass for free, but you'll need to sink quite a bit of time into the game to do that. The battle pass is not a big deal if you want to just play the game. Sure there are a few weapons locked behind it, but aside from that it's just cosmetics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is those weapon very useful? Will buying the battle pass reduce significantly the time/difficulty to platinum the game? If I buy the game and battle pass using US account, then play with my JP account. Can my JP account get the battle pass bonus? Because I know that a lots of MP bonus can only be claimed by the account who buy it... So I have this question...

They could be strong, but if you're just playing for fun or trophies, it's not going to really matter. Cold War trophies are not even available yet, so nobody can tell you that, although it probably won't. I doubt you'd be able to use the battle pass with your JP account if you purchase it with the US one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z1MZUM Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) I will cancel this order if we get a no prestige this year, MW19 and the new player base are just hopeless. Edited September 30, 2020 by Z1MZUM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if it has very difficult/glitched trophies, I will avoid it. Black Ops Series usually has difficult list, so it's better to be careful.

How much of a pain are some of these trophies? I don't understand a lot of them. I haven't properly played a COD since World at War, the futuristic stuff turned me off, but considering coming back for this. I don't have an issue with difficulty, it's more the annoying stuff that you would have no chance of unlocking through natural play that I don't like.
