To be fair it’s probably more like “I’ve suggested adding a poll feature to the launcher but I’m not a dev so who knows what will happen”
Maybe not stated that way but that’s more or less how it works I’m sure

There’s nothing but incentive imo. I’ve skipped out on countless cosmetics because I hated the way they are colored. Fat shark is losing money by not letting me recolor stuff myself.
But it’s money they can’t count opposed to money they can count. They have no incentive to change the current monetization.
That’s a fair point. All I can do is attempt to usher them in the right direction.
I think it might be pretty hard for them to solve the issue that they’ve already been selling straight recolors. I guess refunding those skins is an option though, but I can see why that would make them hesistant to follow through with a repaint system
This, in my mind, is the thing that will prevent any changes to the cosmetics shop.
In other words, I have no real hope of it changing just a clowns hope.
I wouldn’t hold a grudge if they revamped the whole system. I wouldn’t consider it a loss if I could repaint the cosmetics I’ve already bought.
I want to paint
Interesting info:
It’s all over the place.
Some items have cycled through several times and seem to pop-up once a quarter.
Some items have never cycled through a second time, despite being released over a year ago
Some items have never cycled through a 2nd time, however they’ve released 2-4 “new” items that are basically just recolors of the original.
Since new store pages release ever 2 weeks we get 26 store pages released per year. Based on past trends, we might predict that 8 of them will be new sets and 18 will be repeats. Currently there are about 30 sets, so only maybe half of them will get repeated in the next year… and by that time they’ll be closer to 40 total sets.
Unless they fundamentally change how the store has worked since launch, the likelihood of a specific set you like rotating back will become increasingly less likely.

thats why they do it so that people are going to buy the other skins at least cause afraid of fomo. but imo they are just achieving the opposite and it ends in people not even daring to buy skins anymore because of the bad practice they are adopting.
they should bring back the catalogue with all skins bundles etc just like vt2, despite all the feedback sent, still no real change for the shop nor plan to do it.
At some point in the past, I missed some Cadian flak armor chestpiece or helmet.
Now even if I wanted to get it, theres every chance I won’t see it again.
Moreover if you like mixing and matching different pieces, this system is completely counter-productive to that.
It literally makes no sense not to have an open catalogue.
But given their long standing tradition of being deathly quiet, we can’t know if this is even seen as an issue.
kit bashing is part of makes warhammer so fun
but what if bump?
Let us paint DAMMIT!!!
This post is a perpetual.
This is accurate for even most who spend on Warhammer tabletop as hobbyists, and likewise for those who go out for drinks
The Commodores Vestures translates for those who play Darktide that have some spending money and an avid hobbyist enthusiasm for Warhammer into that model.
There is only a small window that they can allow to make it where Commissary can offer the purchase of colors for some marked as “paintable”
Commodores Vestures is best place exclusively for premium cosmetics items and sets with unique markings and embellishments to be premium
The best I want to ask for is that the Commodores Vestures allows a catalog of all collections of cosmetics to be offered for purchase to reduce the fomo
A couple of my friends, who have each sunk between 300 + 400 hours, have bought multiple cosmetics. Im not even sure they will play much more, but we will see.
Meanwhile, be me, 900 hours and almost guaranteed to sink at least another 1-2k, wont buy any unless they sort the shop.
I can only hope they make their money off the shop and change it later. Could be years, probably never.
As it stands right now, I dont see any reason for them to change because it keeps making money. Some people (friends included) liken it to “I buy this instead of pints down the pub” which annoyingly seems like a valid thought process.
Iv told them how I feel about the shop, they dont care. Its like a child who eats the sweet now even though they are told “eat this one sweet now, or wait 5 mins and I will give you two” but no… “Now now now. Later doesnt exist. I want it now!”
Fatshark, I hope you’re cooking up something amazing and I hope it’s to do with the cosmetic system.
it’s also sad that the commissary still doesn’t have more than red and blue weapon skins (and that’s not even available for every weapon, and applying the skin often makes your weapon look like a different mark).
is it so much work to give us 2 more basic colors? like green and yellow or whatever might fit many outfits? basic color swaps, nothing fancy textured?
i got everything from the commissary and nothing to spend my 25m dockets on.
plus, there were those weapon skin packs for 800 aquilas that never came back.
it doesn’t even have that for newer weapons…
