Melee weapons and having skins

(EternalNecrosis) #1

will melee weapons have skins? like gold cobalt or at least silver? you can inspect your knife but it has no skin? you guys should make knife skins from silver and up

Abilities need skins too. Cobalt minigun and grenade launcher please!

I’m not sure how I’d feel about shiny Proxy mines.

I asked MissMurder for this in the stream and they did say they’d consider it in the future.

I don’t think those should be skinned, for obvious visibility reasons.

The rule of thumb I came up with for skinning special abilities - skin it if it’s something unique to this merc and it isn’t thrown/planted etc". So grenade laucher yes, minigun yes, mines no, ammo stations no, Arty’s and Kira’s pointers yes, Fragger nades no, Fletcher’s sticky bomb no, but his detonator yes. And so on.

I’m on the fence as to C4 and repairing tools - they can be skinned, but they should have the lowest priority. Minigun and grenade laucher should come first as those are pretty much additional weapons.

Planes for Skyhammer and Arty deserve skins. I want a cobalt plane soaring through the heavens. I guess we could do Kira’s Satellite as well.

EDIT: Arty has a plane right? I feel like he does, but I don’t watch the sky that often when calling in his strike.

No it’s an artillery strike. But I’m sure his buddies operating it have cobalt cannons.

Clearly they have artillery in the plane… which they fire downward at your designated point.

That’s Skyhammer’s drone, it drops SKyhammers missiles.

Artys artillery just flies in from outside the map.

Skyhammer just has it fly alongside the artillery salvo.
