Just to add a small note. Though I agree with the idea that there can be improvements and that the snowball effect can be a real problem, I also do not think this has anything to do with malice or apathy. There are entire genres (MOBAs) that are built around this concept. It's no surprise that Warzone falls prey to this issue as it borrows heavily from that genre.

It's inherent to the gametype as designed. This gametype, as designed, does not appeal to you, and that's fine. It would be nice if there were another version that played with a linear REQ level progression, or even perhaps cutting your personal progress earned per kill the higher level REQ you're using?

Ultimately, Warzone does what it is designed to do. It's a classic case of utopia/distopia. I feel like very good idea can be exploited into a bad one, and frankly there's not really many ways to try to innovate or create new things without someone finding a way to ruin it for everyone.
