Call of Duty: Warzone Leak Suggests Loadout Delay Is Being Reverted in Season 2

gamerant.com:

The debut of Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific brought several changes to the battle royale title, and while the community has welcomed some, it has rejected others. One of the most disliked Call of Duty: Warzone changes has to do with loadouts, but according to a leaker, it will be partially reverted next Season.

Call of Duty: Warzone’s controversial loadout change sees players being forced to wait to purchase a loadout drop. Specifically, one cannot be bought until the first free drop has landed in Caldera, meaning that players must wait around five minutes to get access to their loadouts. While this does not impact players of average skill level, as they likely cannot get enough money for a loadout in the first five minutes of a match, those who play Call of Duty: Warzone competitively are frustrated by the change.

It seems like complaints from NICKMERCS and other skilled players were heard by Raven Software, however. In Season 2, those who play in traditional playlists may not have to worry about Raven catering to less-skilled players and slowing matches down with delayed loadout crates. According to the reputable leaker @TheGhostOfHope, Season 2 will see the loadout delay being completely reverted in normal battle royale playlists. This will apply to solos, duos, trios, and quads, ensuring that loadouts go back to how they used to be in the main playlists.

However, @TheGhostOfHope does point out that the popular Vanguard Royale playlists will not have their loadout change reverted. As such, players that want to play with Vanguard-only gear will need to wait for the first loadout drop to appear naturally before purchasing their own.
