I could see SD introducing a cosmetics themed event in the future hosted by the mercs, probably inspired by seeing Vassiliā€™s awful founderā€™s skin and wanting better fashion choices.

Thing with that though is that the founder skins are so drastically different in facial construction, skin color, clothes, and general appearance that almost all of them look like different people entirely.

I would like a steel skin concept.

Essentially itā€™s a free card choice of one of the mercā€™s cards and is in the regular gun skin the merc has. The regular skin, no camo, no paint, no nothing. The original skins and you could unlock as a veteran by playing that merc for a certian amount of time and earn a long term goal of XP as that merc.

Good for us veterans and shouldnā€™t be too hard considering they already have all of the assets in the game.

THIS RIGHT HERE.

It would also suit the gameā€™s lore and setting since London is COVERED by private military advertisements, especially in Underground. Fletcher canonically owns a gun business, Aimeeā€™s got connections with the fashion industry, and Turtle is making cool prosthetics.

Aside from that, the alpha state of the game had different character models too (Aura in bantu knots, Sawbonez with cornrows or dreads, Fragger in a beanie). And Iā€™m hoping to see those again.[/quote]

I like to think that the gameā€™s beta status is the only reason we donā€™t have this right now. This level of customisation, which will no doubt frustrate a section of gamers to no end a la Hat Fortress 2, is almost vital for a F2P game, but I respect SD a lot for prioritising getting the game right and only giving us the occasional trinket.

Please donā€™t make me eat those words or any chicken-themed trinkets :x

Iā€™d like to think as well that given peopleā€™s feedback on the ReV skins looking like babbyā€™s first PSP edit (I like them!) theyā€™d make them a bit more attractive in the future if they want people to give a toss.
