Hello Fatshark Team and Devs,
I really love the lore and design of the loyalist Moebian 21st Regiment in Darktide. The contrast between the pale blue fatigues and the dark, matte armor pieces looks fantastic, but they often look very clean.
I would love to see battle-damaged variants of the Moebian 21st cosmetics added to the game.
To be clear: This should not replace, re-release, or diminish the original Vanguard bundle from 2023. I know that bundle was given out as a special exclusive gift to early PC players, and it should remain unique to them. Instead, this should be a completely separate, distinct variant with a vastly different look, condition, and silhouette.
Obtainable either via the Commodore’s Vestures or Penance rewards.
Specifically, it would be awesome to have versions that look like they’ve been through hell:
- Scuffed and Dented Armor: Heavy scratches, metal gashes, bullet ricochet marks, and plasma scorch burns on the dark grey/black chestplates and helmets.
- Missing/Modified Pieces: Variants where certain dark armor plates are missing entirely (e.g., a missing shoulder guard or thigh plate), showing torn blue fabric underneath.
- Improvised Repairs: Armor held together by wire, field-welding, or wrapped in dirty, blood-stained bandages.
By making it highly weathered and distinct, it respects the exclusivity of the 2023 original while offering a fresh, grimdark alternative for everyone who loves veteran-style gear.
Thank you for considering this! What does the community think?
