Oh good, they've provided us our bi-weekly ration of pointless, recolored slop

It’s all recolors - again, and as per usual - but I guess it’s here.

But without even so much as a hotfix, or any information at all as to what’s dropping when.

All they can manage is a cosmetic re-release, and even then it’s late.

How much do you wanna bet, at this point, that Catfish isnt coming back which is why they had to give us unpaid Discord moderators instead? We’re not gonna really know anything about the new level or the new weapons or this crafting update (if it is an update) until very shortly before launch.

Five whole marketing executives collecting paychecks. I guess we know where their marketing budget has gone.

Edit: It’s not even recolors, as pointed out by Rag below. It’s just old cosmetics back in rotation.

For chrissakes.

Not recolors.

Reruns. All of these have been out before.

Probably why there’s no accompanying hotfix. Guess they had nothing at all to go with the garbage so they resorted to putting some old sets in instead.

Only 1 weapon skin too… The rest are trinkets.

I don’t see the point in buying trinkets as it feels go to use one’s that penances unlocked.

That is worse than i can imagine.

Since their hotfix/slop update has clearly failed to the point of not being ready even today, I’m guessing this is a fallback. Since they don’t have new slop, they’re re-running assets already in the game. Accidentally making the store less FOMO, which I guess I can’t really be upset about.

No patch and no info is bad, though.

My conspiracy theory about not being able to release the minor bug fixes so the update in two weeks has more than just weapons and a map looks more likely lol

After all, they don’t need to drop a hotfix to implement old cosmetics they already put in the game files.

Again, my good Commander, I find our viewpoints and moods to align as time goes on.

Yes, you’re correct. So is @Ragnarok101 , for what it’s worth, or at least I believe him when he says it. They’re clearly overwhelmed working on whatever it is they have on tap that they couldn’t even manage a hotfix or cosmetics drop.

You weren’t alone in this belief! hardest proof we’ve got though.

Most likely. Just like the “fixed game crash issue” added at the end of the last MTX ‘hotfix’.

No hotfix = no new cosmetics. Seems to me like something went wrong with the hotfix, they delayed rotation until today expecting it would be ready to go, still isn’t ready, forced to do a rerun.

Which is kinda funny. They’re being forced to uphold their word about the store totally, really, honestly, wouldn’t be FOMO with non-returning cosmetics.

That sounds accurate.

I must say, it’s kind of refreshing seeing you in here! Normally, a CM wouldn’t touch this. I understand you’re not an official Fatshark CM, of course, which - paradoxically - must allow you more freedom to communicate at the tradeoff of having less information from FS, no?

As far as I’m aware, I’m free to speculate on things I know nothing about along with the rest of you.

There’s also the tradeoff that he quite literally does a job for free, which I personally think isn’t ideal. Moderators for official companies should be paid. Especially when it’s on behalf of multi billion dollar behemoths.

I actually am glad the veteran one returned, i didnt get it last time because snow gear on a desert planet was dumb to me but with the new map i want it now.

Yeah I wanted the winter cap after it went away. Too bad they didn’t fix the Ogryn upperbody. Its literally one arm’s worth of skin, and like 40% of it is clipping (the chain mesh goes right through the pauldron). Good lord is that ever low quality and embarrassing imo.

Well now I have to try and resist buying the Ogryn Chest piece again…

Oh yeah also you can add them removing Shirtless saying “muh GW” and than adding a paid for Shirtless Ogryn cosmetic

So, if you were afraid of missing out, does this signify that you mayn’t have to worry about FOMO?
