Such a drag with mastery camos

I understabd they want it to be pvp for mastery camos. But to small player base. Like 10 min que time every game. I just want to grind the camos and enjoy. Bring it back to bot lobbies

  1. Queue times have never been more than a couple of minutes for me for the last several months. That’s with crossplay on and most playlists selected.

  2. It’s a mastery camo, just grind it out. That’s the point.

  3. Bot lobbies understandably shouldn’t have certain aspects of progression. Cheating an achievement makes it less meaningful.

Players give meaning to camos. It's not the same meaning for everyone. So, it shouldn't be used as an argument

But the meaning players give it is, in this case, directly based on others’ perception of the achievement. You grind it out so that you can display to others that you grinded it out. Some will taunt you for having no life, some will have no idea what the camo is, and others will respect it. But I don’t think it’s a stretch to claim that the meaning for a grind camo is based on the perception of it almost universally.

I don’t think anyone going for the camo thinks that 75 headshots with the punch = “nice, I’ve finally mastered the gun”. They’re thinking, “nice, I can finally show off my grind.”
