Pretty sure it’s been well over a year at this point and still most of what’s in the commissary is literal slop. Why would I want to wear a checkerboard blue version of my zealot penance outfit? Not only is it ugly to me, but this isn’t even subjective - I’ve literally never seen a zealot wear a blue checkerboard outfit, everyone can see that it’s slop and nobody wants to use it.
So yeah, I’ve been hoping for a commissary update literally since it was introduced to the game, because again, most of what is available is ugly, actual trash, 0 effort recolored outfits.
Literally if you just took the same zealot outfit, and made it black, or made it yellow or something - people would use it. What are these disgusting checkerboard and stripe designs? Are they even meant to be appreciated and used? Or is the point just that you can get much better stuff if you use the aquila shop?
They actually added the usual red/blue commissary variants to some weapons in the files that didn’t get them on release, like the relic blade. I don’t think they put them in yet tho. That’s about the extent of what we’ll get I assume
Why bother when people buy recolors full price? By creating artificial scarcity, they boost their sales. Even for Havoc all we’ve got is a recolor of an existing armor. I think people behind monetization want to limit free cosmetics as much as possible, otherwise there’s no explanation why they can’t add one pack of weapon recolors per year.
i got optimized weapons of every type and all cosmetics in the commissary, so i can’t spend my 25 million dockets on anything. just add 2 karkin basic colors for every weapon. atm there’s not even red + blue available for every weapon, and there’s still this strange thing that adding a skin makes some weapons look like a different mark.
Not only didn’t they add new skins,
they have many already in the game files,
some which are marked as for the Commissary, which they just never made available.
The ones for the weapons have been added fairly recently to be fair. As for the other stuff, it’s not a new practice, there’s probably more unused stuff around than implemented stuff
The ones for the Grenadier Gauntlet skin have been there FOREVER.
I lamented it being missing about 2 years ago.
I think they just forgot it exists…
Latrine Shovel & Boltpistol have been since their respective release.
The other ones have been there, right since the newer weapons came out.
The helmets skins were all added together with the blue & black helmet (& armor) skins.
I saw other skins (the blue & black Ogryn helmet),
being marked for the Commissary,
to be then released for as Penance & Havoc rewards.
No corresponding armor skins exist for the other Ogryn helmets in the files thus far.
My guess is, that at least the helmet skins are keep for future updates as rewards as well.
But I got no idea why the red & blue weapon skins are keeped back.
