MW2 & Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded kicks off on July 12, and with it comes a collaboration with The Boys TV series.
Three new Operators will be available for players to purchase in the store including Homelander, Starlight, and of course, Black Noir.
Out of all of these skins, Black Noir is getting the most attention as a lot of the community is concerned that the cosmetic will be impossible to see in darkly-lit areas. This means Black Noir owners may have an unfair advantage over their foes, similar to the infamous Roze skin back in the original Warzone.
MW2 fans concerned Black Noir will be "invisible" to foes
Taking to the ModernWarfareII subreddit, user TheDeadlyAvenger posted a picture of Black Noir and claimed it's very similar to the infamous Roze skin that was hard to see back in WZ1.
As expected, this sparked a response from the community, with one fan arguing Black Noir is "worse than the Roze skin" and that owners are definitely going to "camp in dark corners."
Another player has made a prediction that "they’ll sell the skin for two weeks baiting people into buying it, then hotfix it a few weeks later to make it more visible."
This isn't the first time the visibility of a skin has been called into question in Warzone 2, with the recent BlackCell Io Operator also being labelled as "invisible".
How much does the Black Noir Operator cost in MW2?
The Black Noir bundle will be available to purchase in Modern Warfare 2 & Warzone 2 on July 12 for 2,400 CoD Points.
Alongside the Operator skin, the Black Noir bundle comes with two weapon blueprints, the Noir Blades melee weapons as well a finishing move, Weapon Charm, Loading Screen, Weapon Sticker, and Emblem.
It's clear the CoD community is concerned Black Noir owners could have an unfair advantage on certain maps, so it'll be interesting to see if the devs have to step in.
Visibility and being able to spot opponents easily is an important aspect of any shooter, so if a skin compromises this, it can lead to a huge backlash. Only time will tell if Black Noir is going to be Roze 2.0.
