On April 14th the 59.29.38.7.0 arrived with routine housekeeping.

This costs 300 Call of Duty Points or 60 Cryptokeys and the offer expires on April 14th at 10 AM Pacific, 1PM Eastern. This is the latest option like this, which could be leading the way to a Weapons DLC bribe. The initial message only mentioned Call of Duty Points as the way to buy this bribe. We are still waiting for a more detailed list of changes.
