New Call of Duty: Warzone Skin Sparks Confusion Among Players

The latest season of Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare 3 has introduced a "This is Fine" battle pass skin, which is creating quite a stir among players. With Season 6 embracing a horror theme, the game has packed in plenty of spooky content for fans to enjoy. Headlining the battle pass is the legendary horror figure Michael Myers from the Halloween franchise, alongside collaborations featuring Trick 'r Treat, Art the Clown from the Terrifier film series, and a crossover with the upcoming movie Smile 2.

Despite the creativity in Call of Duty’s skin designs, this isn’t the first time players have encountered issues with character appearances affecting gameplay. Back in 2021, the "Rook" skin for the Roze operator sparked backlash in Warzone for its all-black design, which allowed players to blend seamlessly into dark corners of the map, becoming nearly invisible to their opponents.

A similar situation unfolded last year during the Modern Warfare 2 Haunting event, when the "Gaia" skin for Nova—bearing a striking resemblance to Marvel’s Groot—caused problems due to its difficult visibility in the game. Both skins were eventually tweaked to make them more noticeable in battle.

"This is Fine" Skin Creates Gameplay Confusion in Call of Duty: Warzone

Now, it seems Season 6 of Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare 3 has stirred up more controversy with a new skin. The "This is Fine" skin for Jabber features a disturbing carnival clown character with an additional head draped over the left shoulder, which has left many players puzzled. A Reddit user named TortexMT voiced their frustration about the skin, highlighting that it's tricky to figure out which head to aim at during intense firefights, putting those up against it at a disadvantage.

Multi-Headed Skins in Season 6 Increase Player Frustration

Adding to the chaos, Season 6 also introduced the Blackcell skin called "Alone," which features a twisted version of the fan-favorite character Ghost, sporting not one, but three heads. While it's presumed that only the central head is the hitbox target, the other two heads are mere distractions. This design choice has left many players confused during high-stakes encounters, sparking debates about whether these multi-headed skins offer an unfair advantage or are actually easier to spot.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 to Reset Skins and Bring Fresh Content

For those concerned about these unsettling multi-headed skins, there's a silver lining on the horizon. Whether or not these skins receive adjustments or face removal, the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will clear the slate entirely. None of the current skins from Modern Warfare 2 or MW3 will carry over, giving players a fresh start.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is set to launch on October 25, and it promises a throwback experience with a campaign set in the 90s. It will also mark the return of the beloved round-based Zombies mode, featuring two maps available at launch. With new content and a clean break from previous skins, players can look forward to a revamped gameplay experience.
