Many players are complaining about slow progress in the new Battle Pass of Season 2 of Call of Duty: Warzone. Even after many hours, some players have made little progress. There seems to be a solution to the problem, but not everyone will like it.
Here’s what it’s about:
- On February 14, Season 2 started in Call of Duty: Warzone and brought a new Battle Pass
- The pass can be purchased for €10 and gives you more than 100 items in exchange for playtime
- However, the new Battle Pass stresses players in Warzone: Some have only ketchup-speed progress – the solution likely brings the old CoDs
Is the Battle Pass in Season 2 broken?
On the discussion platform reddit, players are discussing the Battle Pass of Season 2 in a large thread. Within 19 hours, the topic gathered nearly 300 comments.
The thread creator “mutatedllama” chose the headline: “1 hour of playing = 1/3 Battle Pass level” and apparently addressed many CoD colleagues with that.
Dozens of players report in detail how much they have played and what progress has been made. Call of Duty: Vanguard seems to be affected by the problem as well.
Much frustration can be read from this:
As ColdPeasMyGooch writes: “I’M FRUSTRATED TOO! It’s not just Warzone, it’s the same in Vanguard. […] I used a 2XP token just to see some progress.”
Also, Battle Pass veteran tmac416 is sure that something has been changed: “I don’t know what they did. I’ve always completed the Battle Pass since its release, but something is definitely wrong now.”
Other commentators claim that slow progress at the beginning of a season is quite normal. CoD has been doing this for a long time, and one should wait a few weeks until the XP rates return to normal.
However, no one presents evidence for such a theory.
Do all players have the problem? Now it gets a bit curious – because some players in the thread report that they can’t replicate the problem.
nola_mike finds the progress to be okay and says: “Last night I played almost 2 hours of Caldera Collision and moved from level 20 to 26.”
Also, FritsfromHolland can’t see a difference: “Yesterday played a bit of Warzone and Rebirth. Maybe about 5 hours. The Battle Pass is now at level 20 or so. For me, it doesn’t feel like it’s slower.”
Will it stay like this? If there really is a problem with the progress in the Battle Pass, then the developers haven’t noticed it yet.
Currently, it cannot be said for sure whether there are issues or if everything is actually normal.
Since players report different experiences, this is an indication of a bug in Warzone and possibly also in Vanguard. A fix will surely come.
How can I bypass the problem now? If you also feel your Battle Pass progress isn’t moving, but you want to level it up quickly, then you apparently need to switch games.
In the older CoD titles, where you can level up the Battle Pass, everything seems to be running as usual. In Cold War and CoD MW 2019, the pass fills up quickly. There are many comments in the reddit thread that confirm this.
However, free-to-play players of Warzone have nothing to gain from this. Feel free to let us know in the comments if you have similar concerns with the Battle Pass.
However, at least the weapon XP progress shoots up quickly at the start of Season 2: CoD Warzone has a new method for leveling weapons – “Delete this before the developers see it”
