I know people have mixed feelings on GGs in general but that aside; what is the point in this gum in BO7?
We know thanks to the BO6 mr peek bug the gum is rigged to produce the Ray Gun over anything else. In BO7 they’ve made WWs slightly easier to obtain from the box, the Ray Gun is relatively easy to get from either chompy, sometimes the fridges in Ashes, and TEDD trials also can give the Mark 2 now – this is all good changes.
But really Wonderbars main draw back in BO6 was to get to the main WW of the map to save time for EE set up, however since Reckoning they’ve prevented the box from offering the main WW until you’ve done the quests to get it, personally i dont like want this mechanic to apply in every map, and I’m surprised they’re doing it this way as surely they’d want to incentivise using Wonderbars to help with this specifically and get people spending money on them (not that we should)?
Whilst its great we can get the Gauntlet in the box on Survival now without doing any quest stuff, its a bit odd we’re almost penalized on the main map and forced to do things ‘the time consuming way’.
This also leans in to a hope they’d add more/different wonder weapons to the survival maps which would again give a reason to use this gum, because as it stands it basically just gives Ray Guns which you can get via other means easily enough.
