Warzone players are up in arms over the Gaia operator skin introduced in season six. Many are calling for it to be banned from ranked play, claiming that it is even worse than the controversial Roze skin.
The Gaia skin, often referred to as “Groot” due to its resemblance to the Guardians of the Galaxy character, has become a source of frustration for players. They argue that it is nearly impossible to see in dark environments or when hiding in bushes.
One player took to Reddit to express their discontent, stating that the Gaia skin is “one of the most intentionally broken features we’ve seen in a long time.” They called on Activision to either make the skin brighter or ban it from ranked play, as it goes against the competitive nature of the game.
Other players echoed these sentiments, noting that the skin is difficult to spot even in broad daylight. Some initially mistook it for a texture glitch when they first encountered it.
While there has been no official response from the developers yet, players are hopeful that they will address the issue. In the past, the developers have made changes to skins based on player feedback, such as with Roze and other operator skins.
It remains to be seen when or if the Gaia skin will be modified, but players are eagerly awaiting a resolution to this visibility problem.
