Change the system of acquiring Call of Duty Black Ops 3 in game points aka COD points.

The Issue

As an owner of the game, Call of Duty Black Ops 3 I paid $60 for the game and another $50 for the additional content aka DLC (downloadable content). This is all acceptable as the game comes with enough content to be worth the $60. Any additional content that the company creates is available through the DLC and gamers know what they're paying for and they get content that is worth the money. As for the complaint over the COD points or "cryptokey" system, this is an in-game currency you can use to purchase "supply drops". You can get extra items in the game to use in order to make the game more entertaining. The most desired items in these supply drops are added weapons for the multiplayer game play. The odds of obtaining these "epic" items is less than 1% on a supply drop that costs $2 to purchase. Of course you can play the game and "grind" to earn cryptokeys which are earned by just playing the game. This option is unacceptable as it takes about 15 matches to earn enough for one rare supply drop. It adds up to an extreme amount of time playing the game to get anything worth while. Which brings it down to the player, if they want the additional content, having to spend real money to purchase COD points and take their chances on getting the desired items from the supply drops. The game makers advertise the extra items that they make for the game as being "available" in the supply drop openings. This can be considered false advertising as the term available means it should be accessible to owners of the game without spending extra money. I'm asking for any owners of the game Call of Duty Black Ops 3 to refrain from buying any COD points and to join me in this effort. We want Treyarch or Activision to change this system or get rid of it. Some ideas are to create a way to trade items with other players or put prices on the more desired items (weapons) so players can just buy them individually. The current system is set up to draw more money from the players who already spent over $100 for the game. It's absurd. I know people who have spent over $1000 on "supply drops" and did not get what they wanted. I understand the company is trying to make more money and it is a choice of the players to buy these points. But it is unfair and far more expensive than it should be. We as people, if we ban together can create change. Join me in this fight.
