Fatshark, can we acquire the amazing weapon skins but without the camo? They got amazing model but camo ruins it alot of the times + bit of discussion about Aquillas

Like the title says, it’d be very nice to have the awesome weapon skins but just…without the really messy and busy camo. Be nice guys, I’m here to provide feedbacks, not going on a with-hunt.

Take for example the Crusher skin, the lasgun skin from the currently featured bundles, and the force sword skin from the previous featured bundle…AMAZING models and designs…but quite honestly somewhat ruined by the camo. And I SERIOUSLY love the Crusher/Forcesword skin designs…alas, they just have to be covered in…smears.

Now I’m sure there are people who love the camo and the color schemes of them…but I think it’d honestly benefit everybody if we get skins like we did back in VT2, simple, clean and universal skins without flashy dribbles on them.

And even if the camo isn’t so bad, if the color schemes of the camo don’t suit a person’s preferences, it’s as good as dead to them, and it’s honestly a big shame.

I HOPE that’s the plan you guys have for us, I VERY MUCH HOPE we’re able to acquire these cool-looking skins without the camos in the future. Of course, it’d be even better if they don’t all cost aquillas…

Seriously, at this point I believe the best way to reach a middle-ground is to add a way that we can earn Aquillas in-game, like in VT2, which I believe we’ve talked about quite a lot at this point.

I can understand wanting to make money but at least…400 aquillas a week from challenges or something really doesn’t sound too bad. And if someone wants to take the easy-way-round to get bundles faster, they can spend money. Darktide isn’t a full-priced game at the end of the day…but it’s not free-to-play either.

The best bundle so far is probably the STEEL LEGION one: Faithful to the original, no unnecessary camo patterns, CLEAN WEAPONS SKINS, etc…We seriously need more of that.

Yeah, I wish there was more effort put into physical modeling and less focus on camo patterns. From a materials/texture standpoint on the weapons, would much rather see some better uses of different metals/metallics and coloring that way instead of use slapping camo paint patterns on it.

yes, hell, I think the Steel Legion bundle skins are the BEST ones that have been released thus far. Very neutral, universal for everyone, no murky and messy camos on them, etc…

Really wish all the bundle/premium skins are like that.

Don’t get me wrong tho, if the camo patterns are RED, like the autogun skins from the 2 first zealot bundles…I’d be ALL IN on them. But that’s the problem, it has to be RED for ME to like it, if it was green or blue or yellow, YUCKY.

In the perfect world, we can recolor the camo however we want…ALAS, we are not in the perfect world, so honestly, I’d settle for FS to make the skins CLEAN and CAMO-LESS, like the Steel Legion SHOVEL skin.

Sure you can have it. In a couple dozen shop rotations, there will be another model of the weapon you want with a better camo :heart:

5$ please :blush:

The system is a mess between remodels and recolours. Why is each camo locked to one weapon model, so that model is forced for all mk variants if you want a particular colour? Vice versa, if a model you like has a camo pattern you don’t like, well that’s probably the only option you’ve got for that model.

Weapon model and camo should be different customisation categories and not awkwardly smeared into the same thing with pretty limited options.

I like them, the MODELS are great…just, without the CAMOS would be amazing. Take the Crusher skin from the latest zealot bundle for example, AMAZING model, I love the mace head design…alas, the camo ruins it.
