SinceCall of Dutyplayers have to purchase theBattle Pass, it’s understandable why many are upset by this bug. Making matters worse is the fact that the Battle Pass is a limited-time thing, meaningCall of Dutyplayers only have the duration of Season 3 to complete and unlock everything in their Battle Pass. The zero XP bug makes this impossible, and some are worried that they won’t be able to properly complete their Season 3 Battle Pass by the time Season 4 rolls around.
Infinity Ward has yet to comment on this bug at the time of this writing, but there are a number of other issues that the studio is working on.
