YouTuber Gets 'Warzone' Tattoo On Their Butt To Celebrate New Loadout Change

Call of Duty: Warzone players are all very pleased after it was announced that a controversial change, introduced in Pacific season one, would be reversed at the start of season two on 14 February.

Basically, it was all to do with loadouts - the original alteration had meant that you couldn’t buy loadouts after the first public one dropped, forcing players to wait around to get their favourite weapons, and precisely no one liked it. Perhaps no one disliked it more than Warzone streamer and FaZe Clan member Swagg, who tweeted at the devs back in January to say: “I’ll tattoo Raven Software on my right cheek for you to revert the loadout change.”

Well, the day finally came. Yesterday, in a statement posted on the Call of Duty blog, Raven Software confirmed that loadouts would go back to the way they once were. But clearly, they’d taken note of Swagg’s promise, and weren’t going to let it go, with the official Call of Duty account coming in with a quote retweet, saying: “Your move, @Swagg.” And oh boy, did he swiftly deliver. “I NEVER [cap],” he wrote, sharing the image of the studio’s logo emblazoned over the promised right ass cheek, mere hours after the announcement. 

Rest assured, this is completely real. Another streamer, Repullze, also tweeted out a photo of Swagg getting the tattoo done, albeit (thankfully) censored. And yes, of course, the devs did take note of all this: “A (cheeky) man of his word,” wrote the official COD account. Just to add to the chaos, Raven Software then went on to set the photo of the tattoo as their Twitter profile picture, although sadly they’ve already changed it back to their usual one. Booo. 

In the statement announcing the change, the devs confirmed that they’ll continue taking on board community feedback and rolling out gameplay optimisations in the future. It doesn’t note, however, that players who get the studio’s logo tattooed on their butts will be taken any more seriously than those who don’t. So just keep that in mind.
