I feel that currently, Arbitrator and Scums, do not have access to enough cosmetics.
In fact, you have few cosmetics that you can get for both classes.
It seems the Fatshark strategy is to sell new cosmetics ONLY for the 4 main classes of the game: veteran, zealot, psyker and ogryn.
I know we could not have Arbitrator that could use Veteran cosmetics or Scums that use Zealot ones, but I really feel that several cosmetics of these classes could be shared… if not all.
Imo many zealot and veteran cosmetics can be shared with scums tho idk about arbites, the plasteel armor is their thing.
Perhaps from fatshark standpoint its not good to sell cosmetics for dlc classes ? Assuming not everyone buys the dlc so maybe they cant justify the cost and effort. Might be some other reasons but this is likely.
Not sure if im mistaken, but i thought they said they will release Cosmetics for Hive scum.
Arbiter is.. well you already know…
yeah here in the intervieuw Jeficus and the director talk about it, around the 9 min mark:
I’d always take these promises in interviews with a grain of salt, the CEOs seem to be out of the loop and just promise random stuff. They seem to be dreamers and not actually making hard “Yes, this is coming” statements.
They also promised Orks, weapon customization, an aquila bundle that allows you to buy stuff without leftover currency in the past, just to name a few.
iirc he said that he would like to do a new enemy faction if they had the budget.
so there seem to be a few constraints with this.
anyway, i hope they keep churning out a few new missions and enemies to keep the ball rolling after the new classes brought an influx of players.
hive scum gives them more freedom for outfits than the arbites.
as for why scum can’t use old cosmetics… because you have those already and won’t pay for new stuff, that’s why.
at least i hope to get the murder hobo goggles: Pls Gildaron Goggles for Hive Scum
Ah yes the infamous zealot speedrunner hobo goggles, the mark of the one who’s allergic to his team 
And why the last part of the sentence…
So, I understand the lame business strategy to forbid that, however they could impose a so stric restriction if they would give us cosmetics.
We had AGAIN, yesterday, a new batch for the cosmetic shop and no Scum cosmetics.
So… it seems they consider the 4 cosmetics they offered to us for the Scums as enough to satisfy all players.
Well, let’s say it… THIS IS A POOR CHOICE.
I want more… so if they cannot offer us cosmectics for Scums, at least permit us to use zealot ones… or part of them (maybe only the trousers and torso).
It could incitate also players to purchase… such cosmetic. Especially if they play only Scums (or Arbites).
The exact quote is
“Every single interview [Andersson] will talk about Orks, but it’s not their time yet,” says Martin Wahlund, co-founder of Fatshark. “At some point they will matter, I promise you, but I don’t know when… We see this as a long, continuous journey, so to speak, that we want to build over time.”
Seems fairly concrete. The CEOs and devs are dreamers though.
wouldn’t look bad though 
Don’t disagree with what you say, only wanted to share the info tho 
Conversely, the original human classes should get to have the Scum hair, face paint and tattoo options. Yeah technically it’s paid DLC but all the other human classes are really lacking in cosmetic variety.
Its a pipeline and FS always works retro-actively.
FS needs to look at the success of ARC Raiders and their cosmetic shop and make some changes going forward.
They currently have purchase options that give you the outfit AND the value of it in currency which seems to me as a customer friendly option i wouldnt mind seeing in FS shop.
I also would like to see an option to buy a complete set for all classes with one purchase.
Not having an option to buy Steel Legion for all classes at once at a discounted price does feel like a missed opportunity to me. Maybe you could go as far as give those discounts back to the player as a credit.
Currently each steel legion outfit is 2900k, thats 13.50 (USD) for each outfit, $54 dollars for the complete set!
Id ask to offer all 4 @ 2100 each ($39.96 USD) Saving $14.04 on the purchase. I WOULD TAKE THIS ONE STEP FURTHER and give that savings as an AQUILAS CREDIT of 2900 BACK to the player. Essentially a buy one get 1 free credit.
The current price of the shop is poorly thought out and IMO disgusting to look at. FS should treat is consumers better with friendlier deals and more ways to earn Aquilas in game at no financial cost.
Just a final suggestion before I leave this post to gather dust, these bundles need to be front loaded so that on new class releases you have themed offers to all available classes (forgive me if they already do this as i rarely, if ever, check the shops or “deals”. Maybe we can have a themed repeateable event to unlock an outfit for one class and competing the event again earns aquilas.
I agree. Brought up the same thing. If the DLC classes are supposed to be on par with base classes they need cosmetics from penances, penance tracker, and from the commodore.
I look at Scum and wonder why Arbites got so shafted with cosmetics. Even beyond the normal lack of variety you don’t even get the full range of alternate red cosmetics. I will say though as someone who nope’d out of Battlefield over similar issues please don’t toss the identity of each class in art direction in favor of homogeneity. Shared backpacks already push it honestly.
I agree…
But actually… we have nothing.
And it seems we will never get anything…
So, what’s the deal? we just stay without any choice?
I would definitely wait more than 2 weeks before deciding that there aren’t going to be Hive Scum cosmetics, and still ask for more Arbites instead since they’re the ones suffering no choice or variety. I don’t want to see Zealot or Veteran cosmetics on Hive Scum because it ‘feels right’. I feel similarly about not being able to use flamethrower on Veteran when wearing the outfits most associated with trench warfare, but ultimately that should yield to the class system.
You’re really optimistic
Let’s wait, but…
When can we consider that nothing will come? 2 rotations without any cosmetics sold for the just released DLC, and you think that it will suddenly change?
And the topic is about that… the total lack of cosmetics for the 2 DLC classes.

Or that, if there is absolutely no Hive Scum stuff in the future that would be one thing but unlike Arbites they have actual concept art showing a ton of cosmetics. And in the current offerings Hive Scum has a lot of variety as is, unlike the cops.
I ask that they give us that… or something else… BUT ANYTHING.
I begin to know Fatshark. No news during 2 rotations… don’t expect that to change.
And that’s something that is making me furious if I have to live with just 3 clothes for my scums. One blue, one green and one metal…
